2020-08-13 at 12:10 AM UTC in Did poverty save me from becoming a Hikikomori?Reading Japan-Is-Eternals posts about all the expensive gadgets he is getting - while being an unemployed dude in his 30s - made me reflect.
For a lot of my 20s I was jobless etc, just like him. But it wasn't comfortable. I wasn't buying the latest gadgets, I didn't live in a big empty house with my mother, I didn't have pets. I was in shitty flats with shitty people on sleeping on air-mattresses.
If my life was materially good, maybe I would have just ended up in his situation, instead of hating shit and going out and getting an education/career/wife etc.
I still like to think I'd be cooler than him though. -
2020-08-11 at 4:12 PM UTC in Dos gamingDos games can be a pain in the ass to get running properly on Windows 10 etc. Dosbox is ok but I wanted a stand alone unit.
Dosbian for the Raspberry PI was released a while back and I just got round to playing with it.
https://cmaiolino.wordpress.com/dosbian/
Installed on a Pi 3B+ it boots directly into dosbox and has many options to configure it however you want. Mount CD images, speedup, slow down, etc
I 3D printed a mini tower case to put my PI in running it. It's a bit rough around the edges because I just printed it on Draft, I might go back and print another one on Fine detail.
Anyway here it is "finished" and running doom. So far it's working great with everything I've thrown at it...just like an old DOS PC (only smaller).

how the fuck do you draw the conclusion "we are causing global warming" from this?
This is like saying "the holocaust didn't happen because the black death happened before the nazis ever existed". That's not how cause and effect works. That's not how any of this works.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

just off the top of my head, several European border guards (in Sweden from memory) were terminated because they tried to verify the stories 'Syrian child refugees' were giving them:
- some held up asylum claims because the 'Syrians' knew nothing of the region, couldn't speak any local languages and were midnight black
- others issued dental checks because 'refugees' were claiming to be children but obviously weren't
It was deemed 'discriminatory' not to take these claims at face value.
Closer to home Canada has banned ethnic breakdowns of crime and other statistics because nonwhites (ie. nogs and natives) commit crimes at much higher rates than whites, and they 'don't want to give ammunition to racists', regardless of whether it's factual.
In the UK the Rotherham and Derby child grooming rings were essentially left to their own devices for fucking decades, leading to hundreds of girls being repeatedly raped because the police knew these were Pakistani gangs and were afraid of their investigations being labeled racist.
Also I'm blanking on the guy's name but that London police affirmative action hire they posted glowing article after article about, 'Pakistanis in the police force', who went on to rape a bunch of women at traffic stopsThe following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

2020-07-25 at 10:21 AM UTC in Anyone Read Sci-Fi?A friend does read a fair bit and he was telling me about how almost all books treat humanity as inherently good, with the exception being Xeelee sequence (and I guess 40k).
Anyway, my idea is that somewhere in the near future, we discover a way to build elements atom by atom, kind of like a 3D printer that can build anything as long as it's fed raw materials (ie. it can produce water if fed oxygen and hydrogen, and scales up to complex elements, drugs and mechanical systems). Instead of bringing peace due to the end of scarcity, it puts a nuclear weapon in everyone's hand. Humanity is almost completely wiped out, with the only survivors being a few loners who jetted off into space alone just before the end.
These few wanderers end up as mad gods, being able to essentially live forever, change themselves and build anything imaginable through the aforementioned technology. The story from there would be a lot to do with purpose, madness and isolation through their interactions with aliens and each otherThe following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

Originally posted by Speedy Parker The same reason you don't address a parrots argument. Neither of them have any clue as to the meaning of the noises they are making.
Well at the end of the day we're all parroting someone. You didnt just come into this world and have your views based of nothing. The term 'well-read' is a term for a reason. Everything we say is stemmed off of what someone else before us likely said. So it's kind of the same thing. Talking points are talking points. -
