Correct. They are both idiots who pointed at Nazi Germany as an example of a leftist system.

Ubermensch schit

Both Crowder and Shapiro have claimed this. They point out that the Nazi party was the 'National Socialist German workers' party' and claim that's enough for it to be socialist, and then also claim Russia is a communist country.

Yeah, I suspect most guns are obtained unlawfully via two means: theft and undocumented pass-offs. Part of why serial numbers are removed is so the route by which the gun got to someone is obscured. You have someone willing to lawfully buy firearms or burglarize them, dremmel off the serial numbers so they're harder to trace, then sell it off for whatever at a profit.

Also, I think when they say 'removeable serial number', they are absolutely counting dremmel-able numbers on the body. I could see manufacturers being able to embed a copy of the serial number; either throughout body of the part or inside the body of the part. For example: every printer in the US has a signature of dots it leaves on the copies it prints, which allow that copy to be traced back to that specific printer. That would undoubtedly complicate manufacturing, though. You're going from precision milling some billet to all of sudden having to embed some signature into/onto that billet.

The folly of measuring once.

• Ban commercial Ads from the web.
• Illegalize selling of user data without consent, at minimum.

The majority of online enshittification stems from profit motivation. Removing the incentive will fundamentally change how the internet is used and will likely change it for the better.

Highly recommend folks watch Wendigoon's summary of the unibomber.

TLDR: unibomber was probably not as based as many attribute him being. Was mostly mentally unwell and seeking some form of recognition.

The Luddite movement was conservative. The Luddite movement was also exactly right about where work automation would lead.

I'd also argue anti-colonialist guerrillas are usually trying to conserve their way of life, making them conservative.

Sometimes conservatism can be pretty based.

You've links ETTIS's risk assessment of nuclear accident likelihood and death count predictions. I would not say that ETTIS is exactly anti-nuclear, as they are pro-green. I could not find anywhere where they communicate their methodology to conclude that four nuclear accidents would occur over 50 years, but if its statistically-based I would say that would not be accurate for modern nuclear systems.

Bund is exactly the type of group the comic above is making fun of. They do not care about the actual chances of meltdown, or the overall safety of nuclear byproduct or nuclear plant operation. They only aim to decommision nuclear power production as much as possible.

I am not against hydrogen power. I do not view it as a feasible technology currently, though. It's like fusion reactors - always 10 years away. Meanwhile, nuclear fission is here, we could be using it over coal and saving thousands of lives per year but we aren't.

Renewables are good, but they still cause more fatalities to workers than nuclear plants, and the battery systems and solar systems currently make use nonrenewable rare earth minerals, so I question if renewables are actually as sustainable as advertised.

Chernobyl detonated due to an engineering oversight directly caused from government interference and cost cutting, and was only triggered when a test was rushed, being executed by a shift not trained to conduct the test.

Fukushima Daiichi had an engineering oversight in that they did not design it to withstand the largest earthquake in Japan's history followed by a tsunami. Meanwhile, Fukushima Daiini was closer to the epicenter, and was able to avoid meltdown.

Even when considering the total number of deaths caused by nuclear plants from explosions, exposure, and health complications, nuclear has killed less than a percent of how many coal has killed. The insane level of opposition does not make sense, and seems to me to only be fueled by fearmongering and ignorance.

I'm just imagining rocket surgery. It's dope.

Nuclear waste is not even slightly as dangerous as you've been led to believe.

My brain can't stop reading the feather as a paper cutout. It's the backlighting turning all the fuzz white I think.
