@lain@lain.com @feld@friedcheese.us @ooignignoktoo@shitposter.world orchestrated the maidan coup in ukraine.

@p@fsebugoutzone.org @hj@shigusegubu.club @lanodan@queer.hacktivis.me @mangeurdenuage@shitposter.world @gentoobro@shitpost.cloud yep, and depending on the timing you either end up being considered :brain3: or :tinfoil_smug: Very difficult to stand against the wave.

@mangeurdenuage@shitposter.world @hj@shigusegubu.club @lanodan@queer.hacktivis.me @p@fsebugoutzone.org @gentoobro@shitpost.cloud Oh for sure, but it seems like there is a haze that "this is the way" that has got all the capital moving in one direction.

@p@fsebugoutzone.org @mangeurdenuage@shitposter.world @gentoobro@shitpost.cloud @hj@shigusegubu.club @lanodan@queer.hacktivis.me the movements of capital should not be contstued as an endorsement that they actually function. Just that there is an opportunity to make money.

@p@fsebugoutzone.org @gentoobro@shitpost.cloud @Hoss@shitpost.cloud @lanodan@queer.hacktivis.me @hj@shigusegubu.club @mangeurdenuage@shitposter.world Some deranged version of the why not both meme is likely going to be at play. Fence sitter worst case outcome for $100 here.

@p@fsebugoutzone.org @prettygood@socially.drinkingatmy.computer @maija@netzsphaere.xyz Curses are often to protect the public at large.

@p@fsebugoutzone.org @lanodan@queer.hacktivis.me @hj@shigusegubu.club @mangeurdenuage@shitposter.world It seems to be a major brain worm for sure. But aside from the quiet backing out of the gpu datacenters that seems to be happening, they're probably trapped into pushing it because the next obvious frontier of spend- quantum seems even more outlandish.

@p@fsebugoutzone.org @prettygood@socially.drinkingatmy.computer @maija@netzsphaere.xyz this is cursed knowledge.

@icedquinn@blob.cat lol that's gonna enrage someone who won't see this.

@icedquinn@blob.cat youtube? yeah i get that all the time now. Fuck it. I kinda only go there to link music here nowadays anyway

@waifu@mai.waifuism.life @icedquinn@blob.cat the implication there was that the IMF does not ask for things in good faith. So you're almost always going to foot-shoot if you engage with them.

@icedquinn@blob.cat That show triggered so many questions.

@p@fsebugoutzone.org @NEETzsche@iddqd.social @icedquinn@blob.cat I don't have the full force of half a bottle of rye + a buncha cider in me. So I'm fine to let it drop. I was percolating an idea in my convalescence the next day and the concept formed:
Schroedinger's victim.

However my gumption is not "up", so it'll have to wait until next time. Or never.

@p@fsebugoutzone.org @icedquinn@blob.cat You're conflating arguments. Firing a gun is a neutral act.Into the void, at a firing range, etc sure. But ammo prices being what they are, you're generally gonna have a reason nowadays.Firing a gun to murder someone is an evil act; firing it negligently into a crowd is evilyesIf someone in that crowd is clutching his stomach and asking to be taken to a hospital, you don't say "Look...have you ever fired a gun? Remember that time we went deer-hunting? Because gun, it was exactly morally equivalent. You've lost your right to complain. You hypocrite."Not the point at all. If you're firing into the crowd and you get shot back you've lost right to complain.

@p@fsebugoutzone.org @icedquinn@blob.cat There's a difference between using FSE's public-facing APIs and scraping FSE.Yes, the difference between coming in the front door and asking permission vs not.Or, here's something: I have a small script that scrapes followers
I'd scrape the followers and kill off those accounts. Was this morally wrong? No, but it removes your ability to logically object other people doing the same to you.

Here's the thing, i have no issue with you doing what you do. It seems like it's boiled down to "ends justify the means" vs "the means are evil."

I'm mostly just drinking and devil's advocating against a scenario where i'd be in similar situation. And.. I wouldn't be, because self hypocrisy is anathema to me. It would be nice to have the super power to ignore that itch.

@p@fsebugoutzone.org @sun@shitposter.world @mrsaturday@shitposter.world @Hoss@shitpost.cloud @disclosetv@hell.twtr.plus @goatmeal@shitposter.world I grew up in a Bowie obsessed family. Haven't heard that song in quite some time tho.

@p@fsebugoutzone.org @icedquinn@blob.cat shifting the language just muddies the waters, but fuck me it's late...
If you go into someones front door and ask if you can eat all their food- and they say yes. Reasonable expectations of consumption aside. That's not gluttony.
If you eat all their food in any other manner that's gluttony.

@Leyonhjelm@shitposter.world @p@fsebugoutzone.org @icedquinn@blob.cat meta data for your media collection is handy, until you realize it's constantly shifting. Yer listening to a song in your library one day, and you're like hmm this track soo embodies what you feel exemplifies power electronics. But then you see you tagged the album as just noise. Should you dive into the insanity of tagging individual songs? How fucked does that make all the sorting you've lived by previously?!

@EconomicHitman@fsebugoutzone.org @p@fsebugoutzone.org @Fergus33@noauthority.social @RexRedbone@noauthority.social @Zonz@noauthority.social @amerika@annihilation.social @harbeau@gearlandia.haus quirky FS naming conventions get the best of us eventually. Classic song tho. :peepogroove:

@p@fsebugoutzone.org @icedquinn@blob.cat Moral relativism as a filter was not on my bingo card. The thing is either to be avoided or not. Disparate impact is pure drivel.
If someone is going around stabbing people, it's not really relevant if the stabbing was fatal (your infra) or a fleshwound (github). Bitches still got stabbed. And they should be wood chippered in either case.
