The original is a NY Post Article, and I don't see a link to the actual research in it.
I'm going to just call bullshit on this one. Blaming an entire generation is so dumb. 30% of Gen-Z can't change a light bulb? Okay, what percentage of Millennials or Boomers? I need a comparison. There are A LOT of retarded people out there ... and a lot of people who grew up in trailers on meth. I wouldn't be surprised if 15~20% of people in general had no idea how to change a light bulb.
But even with that, it just reads like they pulled the numbers out of their ass, or a sample size of 10.
I never really liked that guy. I don't really like any music where every fucking song is political. Even Immortal Technique. Although some of his lyrics are profound, when every song is about some conspiracy, it just gets old. Even when I leaned more liberal, I felt the same way about David Royce .. liked him at first, but he once came to my city and did a free concert and I was like "meh, I'll pass"
Back in college (~2002) I had a buddy who was really good at finding deals. We all went camping and he had a 5 person tent he bought for $30.
We were parting at a friends house and he punched the side of his KIA. Thing was covered in dents, and drill holes where the previous owner had tried and given up pulling out the dents, and most of us were shocked he could drive to to Nashville and back every week for months.
He punched the side of his car because "This car cost $300!"
I use to have two really nice London Fog trench coats in high school. Then Columbine happens .. but I kept wearing them because dammit I was wearing them first! .. and really no one cared. Today they'd probably get banned.
I just heard about the DJI drones, but the article was getting really long and I wanted to get it out. I'm kinda sick of these political articles, but a lot has happened just this month and I really wanted to get these links out there. But if I do another one I'll try to cover more of the drone stuff.
I did not hear about the 🇬🇧 / 🇺🇦 news. You got a link you recommend, so should I just read the mainstream stuff?
Yea I hate how insanely difficult it is to install Linux on ARM. If the distro you like doesn't have an image, you're off to do a lot of fun kernel building and fucking with device trees. I switched to an ATOM based router a few years back, and replaced my Pi cluster with half as many Intel NUCs.
The host of The Last American Vagabond once made a great point in a panel discussion. SARS-CoV may have been a real virus, but wasn't anywhere near as dangerous as it was made to be, or it could have been re-branded flu or it might not have existed at all.
It doesn't really matter which of those is true. The effects of authoritarianism and fracturing of public belief in each other and systems is the real disease, and it's still eating away at everyone's brain.
Ah yes Nature with Shit we Already Knew™. This use to happen all the time in early cities, before fire infrastructure was build. Interesting the article doesn't mention the disabled fire hydrants at all, but does mention climate change.
This file would have never been this devastating if the fucking hydrants worked.
I did like the next one, the Dr Strange/Multi-verse of madness. I think that was much better executed.
But yea I agree. Even without all the "multi-verse" / multi-timeline shit, there's nothing really left in that series I really want to watch. After End Game they should have just cooled it for 8~10 years. It's just all trash now.
