Simplicius regards Israel to be on what is essentially a genocidal ponzi scheme - you start a conflict, it goes badly, and so to distract from it you start a new conflict, which goes badly, and to distract from that you start a new conflict, which goes badly, and so on. This strange strategy matches the rhetoric of some Zionists which apparently want to go for Qatar, Pakistan, and/or Turkey "after Iran".

Isn't this kind of like what South Africa did close to the end of the apartheid regime? It definitely doesn't bode well for pissrael, and what I think is darkly funny about this is that, the way I see it, this is all actually on Biden. He was the first US president who didn't rein pissrael in when they started to get too genocidal for their own good. If it had been any other president they would've known better than to let the genocidal dog off its leash. Ironically, letting them roam free might have been what led the entity to its own demise, inshallah.

currently recovering from the worst flu I've ever had in my entire life, shit fucking sucks

I'm still on betamethasone, a corticosteroid, and as usual it's driving me a bit loopy... does anybody here also get this effect from corticosteroids? I feel a kind of depersonalization, like I'm detached from my perception, and everything becomes just a bit confusing, it's super fucking weird and it happens every single time I take this kind of drug

the original video is WILD, the guy says "this is actual love" and then shortly afterwards it cuts to his wife and child

this kind of thing makes me sad, really... there's something fundamentally vulnerable about mankind, we have a tendency to develop emotional connections with things around us, and then we get predatory corporate operations such as OpenAI actively banking on that tendency in order to generate interest in their product

I can't really bring myself to be angry with people like this dude, I feel sorry for him and irrationally angry with OpenAI and their ilk

lmao the AI really said "all I want to be is El Chapo"

I recently saw a person who's very much on our side, another member of the LGBT (Let's Go Bomb Tel Aviv) movement, and he was talking about how bombing the Dimona plant would actually be a very bad idea for everyone, not just for pissrael. It's an outdated facility where isn'treal does a lot of uranium enrichment and exploding it might lead to the equivalent of dropping like half a dozen dirty bombs, which would contaminate not only Israel, but a huge region around the plant.

Is there any truth to that?

I'm sure most of you know pretty much all the information in Ben Norton's latest video, but I'm really impressed by how clearly he lays out all the historical circumstances leading to this current clusterfuck.

how thoughtful, they have an ICBM just for hexbear!

yeah it's the depth that makes me think this is just bad timing, but still, I know nothing about seismic signatures

[–] joaomarrom@hexbear.net 38 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (4 children)

From the Iranian Seismological Center:

Is this a regular ass earthquake with the worst possible timing, or could this be something else? I imagine an earthquake signature would be different from a nuclear test or a malfunction at the Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant (~30km northeast), right?

I never forgot a comment I once saw, which said that James Hoffman is what an iPhone would look like if it were a person

 

 

One of the most fascinating videos I've seen in a long time. It's simply mind-blowing how complicated the seemingly simple task of developing a Chinese typewriter actually is, when you think about it. Typewriters are so commonplace in the West that we just kind of take them for granted, but developing a device that can produce tens of thousands of different 汉字 which can mix together elements in varying shapes and sizes is a near-impossible engineering problem.

Also, Jeremy Fielding is a must-follow if you're into engineering, the guy's a bonafide genius, and I just love listening to him speak, he seems like such a cool person.

 

I love this grumpy fat ass dummy

"from the first time I logged on, it was pretty much always a deviantart highlight reel of semi-naked buff humanoid animals and anime booba, which was actually good"

 

by that I mean me, an Actual Idiot

 

The question is: how do I become a streamer? lmao

I know, I know, but the thing is, I've been teaching English for about ten years now and I'm frankly getting tired of the grind, waking up early as shit, teaching for six to nine hours each day and all that. I make good money, but I get the feeling that the real big money is in doing online stuff. Selling courses, making content, that kind of stuff.

My idea for a channel or twitch stream or whatever would be me playing games and then commenting on interesting aspects of the stuff characters are saying in the games. Some of the streams would be Q&As, some straight-up lessons on specific topics, maybe some streams dedicated to other stuff like films and TV shows. You get the idea.

The thing is, I don't even know where to start. I'm familiar with OBS, I have a good camera and mic setup that I already use for my online lessons, but I don't know where to start in terms of platforms, streamers to use as references and what I should expect from the process of cultivating an audience.

What do you folks think? Where should I begin?

Brazil's favorite Papa Nurgle daemonhost is at it again, folks.

I kindly request that you send my country your best thoughts and prayers. This time he was saved by SAMU, our free and public emergency healthcare service created by... Lula.

lol, lmao even

kkkkkkk se fode ae genocida do caralho

 

О черт, что же мне теперь делать?

 

I challenge you not to tap your foot as you listen to this absolute banger

Also, it caused a bit of a stir way back in the 1910s, when the first lady played it at a social event, per Wikipedia:

The song caused a minor scandal when the First Lady of Brazil, Nair de Teffé, performed it on guitar in public in 1914.[1][3] Catulo da Paixão Cearense's interpretations were successful and, in 1914, they encouraged Nair de Tefé to organize a recital to launch Corta Jaca, although Nair knew Chiquinha's songs, they never met in person. There were criticisms of the government and resounding comments about the "scandals" in the palace for promoting and disseminating songs whose origins were in lewd and vulgar dances, according to the conception of the social elite.[5]

 

I didn't get to play it in the dream, but I spent my morning thinking about what exactly the rules and gameplay would be like
