    The law is NOT the “only thing holding us back from killing each other”. There isn’t some crowd of killers ready to go, but oh shucks they just respect the law way too much. What a ridiculous notion. If the law prevented us from killing each other then nobody would ever kill anyone.






  • I’m as much as a Linux guy as anybody else, but this really just seems like an interfacing issue. I’ve never done anything professionally with computers, but I run all of my self hosted stuff right on my windows machine (no virtualization) with no issues. The only times things MIGHT go down is when I’m updating. I’ve never used Windows 11, so if it’s as bad as Windows Vista then that makes sense, but then why not just use Windows 10? It exists and you can use it and it works

    Bud, you need to take a breath. This was a thing before social media, I promise you. It’s not a psy op.

    It’s simple, toxic masculinity throughout the post war period led to a lot of men lying about their height (same for women and their weight during the same period). Over time public perception of what a tall person looked like shifted, and now every woman thinks that 6 ft is average height.

    This phenomenon came out of American advertising, not Russian agents.



  • The thing is, research and learning is itself a skill that must be learned, and they don’t teach critical thinking skills in school. Without an occasional friction-laden experience of figuring something out by trial and error, you won’t ever learn HOW to learn, and I think that’s the thing people get hung up on here. It not “younger ppl be stupid” its just literally “younger people are generally exhibiting less and less critical thinking skills year over year”.
