  • Biden did several classy things during some real fuckin difficult times. I can’t imagine how tough this decision was. I really hope we as a country can galvanize solid opposition and keep Trump/Vance’s asses out. Let’s be grateful for the good Biden has done, and if Kamala is the next up that gets the nomination, support the hell out of her.


  • My apologies if that came across as challenging your point with the nimby stuff. It’s like a fuselight, it wasn’t for you but just directed out in the open. Retracting the comment. Housing is something that’s sensitive to me because we just lost a family member to suicide, and while not solely that person’s rationale, among many factors housing was a significant one.

    Housing and healthcare on the trajectory it’s pointed at today, robs our youth of their hope, and signifies quite loudly that we as a society do not love or value the futures of our children, however people may feel internally.

    My only message for NIMBY people is that of hate and revulsion.


  • REITS benefit wealthy, not the commoner. I agree that it’s not the silver bullet to just ban corporations owning housing, as you often need an entity of some kind to manage MDU’s etc, but companies should absolutely be banned from owning SFU’s, and for that matter, landlords are bad for the country overall.

    Instead of worrying about what this does for the wealthy, we have the issue of NIMBY assholes rejecting MDU’s in their areas alongside just a dearth of housing to meet the needs (I’m avoiding the use of demand because this isn’t just some “free market” dynamic, people fucking need a place to live and economics languages shouldn’t apply to human needs). For anyone who takes offense at “NIMBY asshole”, you can go and fuck yourself really fucking hard. I’m talking fire hydrant in the asshole, you motherfuckers deserve to burn in hell, you pieces of god-damn shit, I hate you all (applicable to people with the NIMBY attitude).







  • Yes it is.

    “iT’S oNLy a FeW hUnDrED MB oF LiBRAriES and BiNAriES pEr aPp, iT’S oNLy dOuBLe oR tRiPLe tHe RAM, DiSk, anD cpU uSAgE”

    Then we have the fucking shit show of 6-8GB of RAM used just by booting the fucking machine. Chromium/Webkit is practically an OS by itself for all the I/O, media handling, and built in libraries upon libraries of shit. Let’s run that whole entire stack for all these electron apps, and then fragment each one independent of each other (hello Discord, who used Electron 12 for WAY too long) then say “bUt iT’s pORtaBLe!”.

    Yes, it isn’t just terrible, it’s fucking obnoxiously and horrendously terrible, like we grabbed defeat from the jaws of victory terrible, and moronically insipid. Optimization in the fucking trash can and a fire hydrant in all our fucking assholes, terrible. That’s HOW terrible it actually is, so you’re wrong.
