I get the sentiment, but the fact we still have digital media coming out of Gaza even today shows that no matter what I think the message can get out. Even without internet and widespread power outages, there are still going to be ways to generate electricity and enough leftover iPads and flash drives (and printers) to disseminate information. Even local meshnets could be used to rapidly disseminate information and organize
They want to penetrate my gaping vulnerability?
Is watching The Pianist (2002) worth watching these days despite Polanski being a piece of shit garbage that never should have been allowed to make movies? I remember watching it when I was a kid and really liking it, and have been thinking about it lately because IIRC it depicts the Warsaw ghetto uprising. But obviously I was a kid so I wasn’t sure if it was worth another watch with my partner who hasn’t seen it. I pirate most anything I watch ofc
Ive also never seen Schindler’s List so I think we will watch that soon. We are on a WW2 / antinazi kick after just watching inglorious basterds
The best parts will be clipped. My favorite segment so far is the time he spent addressing his removed denial"
I discovered Hasan through leftovers and consider that process one piece (among many others) of my “radicalization journey”. This has been very cathartic. I also believe after this there won’t be much reason for Hasan to talk about him anymore, any clip or “criticism” people bring up he can just refer back to when he debunked it here. And I guess he wasn’t fully aware of the extent of ethans zionism and racism
Some of it is just drama, like going through the timeline of the horrific zionist shit and hasan-hating shit ethan was saying while hasan was still defending him on stream. But he has also been spending a good amount of time actually addressing the issues in depth, for example, a good amount of time on why he “denies massremoveds”. I think that its a good educational opportunity he may as well use.
Israel will continue to bomb Yemen, but nothing will stop the air and sea blockade except an end to the siege of gaza
Why not waste a few billion more dollars and another hundred reaper drones?
As long as the lumber and chemicals are also produced locally
My parents have bidets and I think I am finally ready to get one after my last visit home. One was heated (heated seat as well) which was especially nice, although it was $300
He just says it mask off and they don’t like that.
Your policy is fair, because then your students would hypothetically actually use their damn brains a tiny bit, which is what school should be about
I would also posit that any false quotation could just be docked one letter grade, so 5 of them is an F
They could play star wars and his takeaway would be to build the death star
That’s a misrepresentation at best. He never wanted parliamentary seats as an end in themselves, nor was he a Democratic socialist. But he recognized that seats in parliament could be used for further agitation and to build up popular support for the Bolsheviks. When they recognized that popular support for the bolsheviks and mass mobilization was already reaching the strength necessary for revolution, they decided to boycott the Duma.
Think of how the PSL engaged in electoralism in 2024. They know that winning a presidential election is not going to happen, nor is it the correct way to bring about socialism, but it was a correct tactic for growing awareness and popular support for the PSL and socialism in general. But the PSL is at its core a Marxist Leninist organization and definitely not Democratic socialists
I think I get what you are saying. A couple years ago I started to use LLMs as a way to bounce off research ideas and hopefully find sources. But ultimately I realized it was detrimental to my actual understanding of the ideas I was trying to brainstorm. If you find yourself using AI heavily for anything I think it will always be detrimental in some way.
Even summarization, something that LLMs are probably best suited for, if used liberally will have the same effect of only reading headlines every day, sometimes you need to read some stuff all the way through to maintain your brain. I know people that use it for extraction purposes (pulling out specific data from huge reports for instance) and even then it makes a mistake 5% of the time.
Anything you use AI for you need to make sure you are also using your own human brain for at least some of the time or your brain will atrophy
I would recommend “Left-Wing Communism: An Infantile Disorder” wherein he explains his views on this very topic. Its informative to why tactics, such as whether or not to engage in electoralism, are never black or white and depend on critical analysis of present conditions.
Damn man, the current trend of AI usage among normies is pretty bleak.
LLMs are good for summarization and extraction, and even then you better double check their work if it is something that matters. Maybe there are some good uses for coding as well. But to many normies treat it like god or an all knowing thing, when its just sparkling word prediction
In the near future health insurance companies will be prescribing AI for therapy
Iran has the opportunity to ask grok some pretty funny questions
My most hated fox host. This is such a sick joke
