problem with odysee is that it’s full of nazis so nobody wants to use it. like literally, one of the first videos that comes up is from the nordic resistance movement. and since it’s based on the lbry blockchain illegal content can’t be removed, only hidden from the frontend.
no. i don’t pretend to even begin to understand how the prototype at wardenclyffe was supposed to work. i do remember that it supposedly used the atmosphere as a transmission line, but whether that meant bouncing the signal off of it (meaning it was radio based) or somehow charging it (meaning it was static based) i couldn’t tell you.
it’s not a news video.
tesla’s idea was global wireless power. no idea what his efficiency numbers were though.
it does say on the site for the device that it draws 100W, but in the video he says that there is a 10W minimum draw, so i’m assuming it goes up from there
great idea to just wrap existing tools! love that. now i just need to figure out how to switch out the editor…
is this where i do my monthly bringing up of the absolute mayhem cars 2 did to that franchise?
cars is about cars because it’s a potent metaphor about the urban/rural class divide in america. cars 2 is about cars because… the first one was.
which means they didn’t think their messaging through.
which is how you get an entire movie about lemons being shunned for being badly built, but it’s fine because it turs out they’re all part of a giant evil conspiracy to kill the “normal” cars by mass poisoning.
let’s rephrase that: there is an entire class of people that is genetically inferior and predisposed to evil. that’s not subtext, that’s in the film.
as always, the Kill James Bond episode on cars 2 (or at least the highlights) are required reading.
The main thing that’s being thrown around is that all trans women are sexual predators, just like how all homosexual men were in the media in the 70s. now, like then, only half the people involved actually matter, because trans men/lesbians screw up the debate.
one thing i heard a while ago that resonated with me is that the “natural order” people seem to believe in “rank” men higher than women. it’s the classical “women are supposed to be meek and stay at home” bullshit. so, in a world where gender is sex, is fixed at birth, and gender roles are also fixed, trans women (or, to use “their” vernacular, men choosing to present as women) are intentionally devaluing themselves. if you are indoctrinated into the value belief, this action is completely illogical and unnatural.
there are two ways out of that philosophical dilemma: either you take a good look at yourself and reassess your own values, or you conclude that these people must have some nefarious purpose to their actions. they must all be molesters, or pederasts, or both, and they’re using their presentation as a disguise to get close to weaker people in order to take advantage of them. again, the existence of trans men and lesbians completely invalidate this, so they are ignored.
the fact that, as the “weaker” sex, women are constantly preyed upon anyway, and trans women more so than average, just doesn’t register, because in this world trans women are “men” and therefore can’t be preyed upon. the fact that it takes several years to go through a full transition and get a gender recognition certificate is entirely irrelevant because these people just dress up and then rape women (you know, unlike men).
the entire argument falls apart as soon as you think about it for more than five seconds, but it fits very well with the religious outrage that pops up ever so often.
of course it isn’t the point, and i try to rp as much as possible in games like this, but sometimes you just need to talk tactics or get someone to do a quest with you. outright banning it seems counterproductive.
sounds impractical in what is basically a numbers game. i get it for things like muds.
i know what roleplaying is, or at least what this game seems to think it is…
i want to know what “enforced” means. they don’t say.
what do they mean roleplaying is “enforced”?
stack overflow and linux kernel mailing list? yeah, checks out
and to think all lemmy users live like this
or not in favor of feeding criminals into woodchippers
SIMD and CISC are not tied together. ARM has SIMD. RISC-V has vector extensions like old mainframes. they can both do SIMD and combined instructions jush fine. they just don’t have dedicated circuitry for them.
no i mean the hacker should do that instead
yeah but on other sites that gets removed. if you’re blockchain-backed, it stays online. also, most places remove hate speech. if you’re a “free speech absolutism” platform, guess where all the nazis are gonna go.
