I don’t know if those as well are called tankies in English, but yeah, there are a lot of those here.

Horribly enough, that is how the USA collapses in the CP2077 timeline:

And yet, Israel has practically dictated US Foreign Policy in the Middle East, which is a theater of conflict in which everyone is playing, including China.

As already discussed in another comment, scheme does not have a devious meaning in non-American English.

I don’t think he is a Nazi, but if you think that is what would save you from being a Nazi, you haven’t been following the last 80 years of developments in Palestine.

Not really into the manosphere I think, but he is definitely a tech solutionist.

Depends how tuned in you are. If it wasn’t for this pinned post on Lemmy I wouldn’t have known.

They are priests, they are all the same, no matter the cult or the specific affiliation (Jesuit in this case): https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/pope-paedophile-priests-children-god-vatican-b2336786.html

You literally missed the right number by one.

Repeat with me: “Morto 'n papa, se ne fa n’antro”.

This is Romanesco (the dialect of Rome) for “When a Pope is dead, another one is made”, usually used to comment situations in which the present condition will not be changed simply because of how the underlying mechanisms work.

Literally nothing to see here.

I believe him to be of Russian descent, and playing hard on the American stereotype of that.

He has had a troubled academic career due to a faulty paper trying to prove Tesla’s Autopilot to make people more attentive.

He has a long standing podcast in which he interviews mostly techbros and politicians such as Musk, Carmack, Trump, Modi and the like for hours at a time. He never really challenges them and lets them speak on whatever they bring up, turning his podcasts into hours-long PR stunts.

Probably a Russian asset, given that in this comment to his conversation with Zelensky he reiterated Trump/Vance talking points.

I have noticed that people who later reveal themselves to be into Joe Rogan and the like first test the waters by asking you if you listened to the latest Fridman podcast. I work in a tech consultancy so I have quite a sample, but it could also be a bubble.

Andrew Rousso made a spot on imitation of the guy here, as usual. It’s worth listening to a Lex Fridman podcast intro just to enjoy Rousso’s imitation.

As an old enough Italian, I can assure you that my friends who attended those schools in the 90s still received the same treatment and especially that teachers in public schools who attended those schools kept telling us of how they dreamed of doing that to us.

Wow, just wow. Are you Drax?

This bears the question: is that what the elite wants? I mean you wouldn’t accept a shitty job and you would consume less to compensate your dissatisfaction, so…

Ask about Lex Fridman: at least for tech geeks it is the antichamber to Joe Rogan and the pandemonium thereafter.

Send them to a Catholic male-only school, which incidentally is also one of the most right-wing places I can imagine. Let’s see how long they remain up to their “masculine” standards.

It is the same with all industries I guess: for each one of the mass consumption alternative there is a well-defined tipping point. The problem is that the people who, for a job, are informed about what these tipping points, most of them work in banks and other financial institutions as analysts.

We would need more of them to come and speak out, even anonymously, here on Lemmy, to inform the public about how close we are to achieving change, since so much more can be achieved when the goal is in sight.

For example, I believe we are closer than we think to the tipping point of the intensive cattle industry, but if someone well-informed would come here and say “you are this close, just call for X more people to join your consumption level and the whole thing goes to shit” I would mobilize A LOT more.

I know this is a joke, but it is important to point out for others that such policies get years to be designed, discussed and published in the EU.

What is an alternative to burning for long-term immobilization?

Asking for a friend.

3465 € in 21 years at today’s prices for 287 games. Given that I mostly buy at historical lows the estimate of 1033 € that can be found on the same SteamDB page applies to me.

3,6 € per game, 49 € per year.

Given the tears, the emotions and the joy I got repeatedly from all those (mostly indie) titles, it’s well worth it. Praised be GabeN and all of Valve!
