The great replacement conspiracy theory is explicitly racist, not classist.

That doesn't mean you're being replaced. It means demographics are changing, like they always do.

If you feel threatened by that, you do you, but I don't give a shit.

Trump: /openly peddles Neo-Nazi rhetoric/

Neo-Nazis: /Celebrate that Trump and friends are peddling their propaganda/

Salon: /Reports on the mainstreaming of extremist political views by Trump and other Republicans/

You: "Salon should shut the fuck up"

It seems you picked a side in this issue, and that side is decidedly against the press and not against Fascism.

I wonder what it's like to be a Haitian living in Springfield right now, seeing people relentlessly posting uncritical memes about the former president's racist lies, while various schools, businesses, and government offices are closed day after day due to threats of violence...

Can't log in anymore without seeing weird photoshops of cats and dogs being cooked and eaten. TikTok is covered in people dancing to remixes of Trump's racist comments. I'm sure this is all helping /s

This only affects the ultra rich, so maybe they have it coming to them.

Don't be reductive. Anyone who owns $100M worth of investments, be they stocks, bonds, or real estate holdings, needs to pay more in taxes.

This is targeting 1%ers hoarding capital, not your rental properties. We'll come after landlords' underserved income later as we further tackle the housing affordability crisis.

347 Mbit/s maximum. (But don't expect that at 9.9 miles...)

The "WiFi HaLow"name itself indicates lower power usage than traditional Wifi, largely because it uses the 900MHz band instead of the 2.4/5/6GHz bands.

Likewise, it isn't compatible with existing WiFi client devices that don't operate at those bands.

This is like a 30 minute beginner's API project. If that admin is married to it, they have bad priorities.

Yeah, historical accuracy is implicitly anti-Conservative. Before you know it you'll be asking for such biased things as "evidence" and "accountability".

“My father is running out of lives here,” son Eric Trump told Fox News’ Sean Hannity. “How many more rifles are going to come within assassination distance of my father?”

THEY'RE BLAMING THE GUNS! 😂

So you're saying that we should be concerned with datacenters more than things like factory farming and oil & gas?

I don't follow. I need a lot more evidence of harm before I become "very concerned" about datacenters specifically.

Between AI and shitcoin mining, these two "technology branches" already consume more power than all the green power added to the grid combined.

I think you would be shocked if you learned what some other things in our world cost in CO2.

The energy costs of cryptocurrency mining are easy to calculate because the system is extremely transparent. AI is a little muddier, but we know how much big tech is expanding data centers, and we know how many enterprise GPUs Nvidia sells, so we get a decent estimate.

But these things don't actually do as much damage as compared to other things. Imagine how much energy is used for Gaming PCs and consoles. It's probably up there with Crypto and AI if you consider all running consoles and PCs, plus all the multiplayer infrastructure. But we don't have numbers because this is hard to calculate.

And then there's stuff like personal automobiles, that completely blow these other things out-of-the-water.

What do you disagree with specifically? It only affects people with over $100M in wealth.

Do you think the tax goes too far, and if so, why are you protecting the wealth of the 1%?

Or do you think the tax doesn't go far enough, and if so, wouldn't opposition it just mean not passing a tax at all, which would be worse?

Or do you know nothing about her proposal and thought it was going to affect your paltry investment income?

 

With this lie escalating to violent threats against the Haitian community, we perhaps need to put a pause on joking about this insidious hoax. They are trying to start a race war, and memes likely aren't helping.

 
 
 
 
 
 

Who is that woman on the right? Are we supposed to recognize her or something?

 

That "uncensored" HuggingFace Space probably isn't even hooked up to a real GPU. It's just some guy named Bob eager to narrate your sexual fantasies.

 
 
 

He looks like his parents.
