I had a near miss during autobahn driving recently and I felt nothing. I remembered it because it was so bizzare. I do feel burnt out from anxiety

Reason: Rule 1 (western propaganda)

There’s another product that probably was this and ended up… somewhat badly. Valve index

It wasn’t bad in itself but the whole vr thing kinda missed the chance for whatever reason and now Zuckerberg took over it mercilessly. Maybe it was naive to think it will ever take hold outside of simming

Still the beginnings were real fun and that valve demo was so real I had panic attack from past me agoraphobia while in tutorial

I want to emphasize that several of the greatest minds in political philosophy of the 20th century spent the better part of two decades working the salt mines of Marxist theory, trying to make the “exploitation” critique of capitalism work and every single one of them gave up and became an egalitarian. Surely that should count for something! Anyhow, there’s no need to take my word for it, the library is full of books.

Some kind of commie drivel that’s literally incomprehensible since the last nail in the coffin of scientific Marxism in the 70s

You can even see identity politics held at the gunpoint to make it more appealing to minorities though no one knows how those matters relate to any of this

That’s great but this is juggling numbers in memory and I simply cannot do this reliably. I will have this one current operation and put the other ones into the mental basket so to say and it evaporates and blurs as I calculate the other thing right so I wonder how these folks can do this and really fast. Not that I ever seriously tried other than some rare bored moments so maybe it is simply a matter of training?

Its very impressive though when you give these ppl two big numbers and they say result nearly in an instant

Okay this is nice and all but how do people do 3974* 438 mentally, without paper? And bigger and some outright freaks seem to do it in an instant

I just sold my 4090 after playing some latest hit AAA games I didn’t like at all and I play only indies on deck, it’s the best gaming device ever

Also it seems the only games I liked from hundreds of aaa graphics eye candies from recent years are rdr2 and cyberpunk and bg3. I unironically think there are fewer great big aaa games nowadays cmv and I am not planning another xx90 card any time soon

Vapid, banal expressions have some power. Whatever makes us go through life a little more positively is an asset in my book

Remember to not judge whole group by degeneracy of one or two members. Not all paleontologists are fascinated by multipurpose dinosaur buttholes. It’s just a vocal minority.
