Forgot to remove a bunch of p tags when I was porting my document to html whoops...

mad respect for putting up references

thank you, I should have looked for a source for the picture but I got lazy :P

I found the study that the made the diagram and the image I used is not the study at all, nor does it conclude that the right is more open minded. This honestly makes the image even more funny, they took a diagram from a study, twisted to fit their narrative, only for it reinforce their unreality

Updated the references to include the original study

oh those silly geese 🫢🫢

New blog talking about recent events

Updated the formatting, added a missing sentence at the beginning, and removed a sentence I felt wasn't needed

That image is truly hilarious, but also strangely comforting. I mean, one fear I've had for a long time is that the larger left is too split to enact real change. There's this sentiment on the internet that anarchists hate commies, commies hate liberals, liberals hate socialists, and then even smaller, more esoteric subgroups start bickering nad yaddi yaddi yadda...Point is, as much truth as there might be to that-

we're all just agreeing with eachother at the end of the day. I mean hell, as much diversity as there is in the left, nothing will ever come close to the amount of cannibalization occuring from ingroups on the right. As you said, their weapon is delusion, but with delusion comes subjectivity, and subjectivity causes splits on things that are a matter of opinion, which is the natural antithesis of republicanism-

as it makes foreigners of its own people. So sticking to the facts we all agree on, and not arguing about "who remains after the revolution?" is our job at the moment. We can fight and bicker like the left always have, because at the end of the day, we can never destroy ourselves to the degree that fascism can, and that's comforting.

funny how people praise seeking out others' opinions, but the moment you do you're suddenly "getting it from a youtuber" and somehow it means less

New blog post is up, talking about my first term in grad school

Yeyy, congrats on your A! You did so amazing for someone who did not enjoy it XD, plus it must have been very disheartening to be surrounded by people overly reliant on ai. :((

thank you :P Yeah it is quite disheartening but it shows just how important it is to continue making humans creations

Congrats on your A!

But to play devil's advocate a little, I think it's quite common for people to mis-use penultimate, even in normal speech. I wouldn't consider it an indicator of AI use. Those other flags definitely are though. Sigh, what can you do. Just get that bag king and never look back

That is true, people do misuse it, but the amount of emojis, among other indicators, are rather telling...

Updated the formating of one story and the "about the site" section of the home page

Updated the Linux Distro section

New blog talking about some of the recent trends in tech, enshitification, and how I have avoided them

Oh hell no, a fridge that relies on AI to be opened? What if they decide to "update" the fridge and now if you want to open it you have to pay a subscription? I don't doubt it srsly xD tech can be so ridiculous sometimes. But yeah we should learn how to take control over our stuff, they are forcing the enshittification and we should be smart enough to avoid it. It even makes me want to go back to full analog mode

adblock is seriously a must have since at least five years back. not just because of slop, but it's basically a must for virus security and what have you.

btw the freetube link is broken fyi'

Thank you, Dequake, that link should be fixed now :P

Also updated my not_found page because it was missing some buttons

Wrote my pretty extensive thoughts about Fallout New Vegas's DLC, Dead Money
