  • If the rules aren’t enforced against them, then they absolutely do not apply to them

    It’s not really a pedantic thing, but it kind of is.

    The rules apply, if they didn’t they wouldn’t still give a fuck. They’d be having Epstein parties on the South lawn for everyone to see. If for no other reason than doing it in the open is more extreme than doing it in secret.

    Currently consequences do not apply, because they’re not being held accountable.

    But the rules do, or else they wouldn’t be hiding it. You think it’s shame that’s keeping trump from admitting all this shit? He’s afraid because there’s still a chance that consequences could show up, because the rules do still apply. They’re just not being enforced at this moment in time that’s not as long and ending as you seem to believe

    It’s cute

    Sorry, not interested.






  • It’s wild that the first generation to do LSD in mass

    I want to say hippies were less than 1% of that generation, but for some reason I think it was recorded as 2-3% which would be a gross over-estimate.

    But for every hippie you think of sticking daisies in rifles, there was 100 spitting on Black kids for going to the school they were legally required to go to.

    It would be like if in 2080 they think we’re all catboys with blue hair and 37 facial piercings.

    Sure, those people exist as a fringe demographic, but they’re not the norm.

    Bmost hippies had more issues with peers their own age than their parents age, that part of the folk tale gets left out tho, because the people who want us to think they were hippies and “grew out of it” were the ones beating hippies for being different.

    All they were ever trying to do was lie to younger generations in the hopes they’d confirm to decades old social norms. Like, it’s weird how many people still don’t understand the boomers just lie about shit instinctively. They grew up in a world filled with lead and are literally incapable of caring about logical inconsistencies. They want younger generations to think they were cool, so they just fucking lied about what they were like as a generation.

    If you ever run into a real deal old hippie some day, ask them what the majority of people their age was like back then.


  • 2k is 1440p.

    720 doubles to 1080.

    1080 doubles to 1140

    1140 double to 4k.

    Companies all skipped 2k for the most part because all consumers cared about was resolution. That’s why the jump to 4k took so fucking long, for the most part we skipped an entire resolution generation. So even with 4k, all the other stuff wasn’t caught up.

    Pretty much the same thing happened with 4g, the telecom corps agreed on a set of requirements to say they’d reached a new generation, but the numbers needed to go up before the tech was ready, so they all agreed to just claim 4g arrived, that’s why there was so many different flavors of 4g.


  • People really need to understand a lot of what “smart” TVs do is upscale the “4k” signal to something actually resembling real 4k.

    Like how some 4k torrents are 3GB, and then a 1080p of the same movie is 20gb.

    It’s “worse” resolution, but it looks miles better because it’s upscaling real 1080 to 4k instead of taking existing shitty 4k and trying to make it look better without just juicing the resolution.

    So we don’t need 8k.content for 8k.tvs to be an incentive. We need real 4k media, then 8ks TV would show a real improvement.


  • Boomers economic policy is like if Issac Newton saw an apple falling from a tree, and came to the conclusion it would always accelerate at the same speed no matter what, even though the ground with the entire ass planet behind it is right fucking there.

    Numbers can not constantly go up, it’s just that’s what was happening their whole lives and they can’t accept that their childhoods was a blip and not how things always were and always will be.

    They just can’t wrap their heads around it. They have such shit tier empathy they can’t comprehend that they’re an exception.


  • I feel like it’s a safe assumption more Americans in border states want to join Canada than the other way around.

    I think even Cali would told it came to a vote and they’d already gained terrority adjacent to Cali thru the Pacific Northwest

    That would be a true death low to the American Empire, without Cali we’d be fucked.

    It would never happen, but it’d be worth Canada to hype it up just because if trump has to play defense, he just stops playing the game and starts a new one. That’s whY the whole TACO thing is, but because someone on social media made up a buzzword, no one really understands what’s happening
