News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

I’m not even unsympathetic to the guns rights people. I just can’t square the. “We need guns to fight tyranny” with the constant screaming of “we’re falling into communism/fascisim/etc.” screeching s been doing since they learned those worlds.
I thought that was the Texas national guard lol. Kinda surprised they didn’t take this “it’s fake” defense.

Lmao another one. Wonder whether HN was dickriding them at the time like they do all their other fellow scammers.

Clearly they should have had a man write this article. It probably would have some solid research behind it beyond just “vibes” and “theory pulled out of my ass”. Quite demonstrative of her points at least.
I 100% support the US military carpet bombing the entirety of the bay area.

A big problem is high karma accounts are allowed to constantly politically flamebait But the nobodies get snuffed out pretty quickly, often for much less.

Not surprisingly, various groups often grant those with greater tenure and more connection leniency. I just despise the lies.

Turns out gatekeeping works
While I’ll grant you the mentally handicap. I promise you there are many in the military with dysfunctional drug addicted parents.
That’s cool, they can just hire Indians to put out a shittier version.

It’s difficult to stop lying sometimes

Why on earth did I waste my life working of clearly the path to success is based on plastering buzzwords in irrelevant places.

Seconding this.

Was out of work for a year. The magic solution was a nepo referral.

I love this world!

> in these households are going to have minimum of IQ that's higher than the normal minimum since that's a prerequisite for enlistment.

Is it? I know they’re a lot more selective than historically, but I was under the impression that a low 30-something asvab score qualifies you for at least infantryman. Is that really above average IQ?

Somehow though they can’t ban all the 1 month old accounts running real estate scams from marketplace.

> Your residence history and your presences on the distributed Internet is the HARDES to fake.

When I was 18 with little to no credit trying to do things. Financial institutions would often hit me with security questions like this.

But, I was incredibly confused because many of the questions had no valid answer. Somehow these institutions got the idea that I was my stepmother or something and started asking me about address and vehicles she owned before I ever knew her.

> No judgement from me, but this is what you want.

Just because your retard algorithm saw me stop scrolling where a video auto played, does not mean I want to see trash. Kill yourself.

I’ve come to understand there’s no point arguing. These people are as amoral and unscrupulous as they dogs they worship.
Divide the masses, destroy their earning potential, construct your castles, ingratiate the current lords. This is the path to feudalism.
Silicon Valley created anti social behavior as a service and call it innovation.
Walmart will sell cheap Chinese emulations to hop on the nostalgia train too.
> My eBay sales have been way down this year too and so far q4 is not looking good at all.

I had half the mind to start up an old project I abandoned after losing my job. I opened eBay and was floored to see how much costs have increased in my little niche.

> unless it just wants to cosplay

Do not underestimate this as a real population.

It’s probably the hours. A lower middle class income is not worth losing my every waking hour over.
I bust out loud laughing the other day when I saw two jobs listed here in rusty southern Ohio.

One was for a semi-skilled manufacturing position. A little more than just assembly line, but nothing super special or niche. The other was a janitor position at the local public school system.

The differential was not huge, but the janitor paid more. Probably less hours too.

That guy did retail shoe sales too. I’ve known some people to survive off those type of jobs, but they sure as hell weren’t living with a sitcom family in the burbs.
> Go on these people's facebooks, or invite them to Thanksgiving, you'll see the same firehose of shit.

A fun game is to look at Facebook profiles selected from random comment sections.

By doing this, I have come away with even less understanding of people’s believes, motivations, etc.

> "numerous…teachers, parents and students" somehow interpreted Bushart's meme—with its citation in fine print about a previous school shooting at Perry High School in Perry, Iowa—as a threat to carry out a similar shooting at nearby Perry County High School.

Wouldn’t matter. Those elected would likely be re elected. This wasn’t Trump advising some federal agency to bully someone he doesn’t like. It was the community organizing. This is the will of the people.

You have to call a spade a spade. The truth is trashy to many.

This is why AI bros can’t be taken seriously. Their slop generator above the foundation of human societies.

Hypocrisy is a virtue. It gives you the strength to batter the enemy while remaining untouched yourself.
