Try this, it should help turn the headlines somewhat comprehensible.

Python seems surprisingly low too

Never trust a guy with a substack

About as creepy as the classic hentai glasses (quite NSFW, obviously, but not full on porno) and not even half as entertaining even if you can stand the creepiness.

I just enjoy dabbling

[Drunk, having a good time with friends]: I’ll show you collecting state tithes for immoral substance consumption!

Change is easier on an individual level.

No fucking shit?

I, for one, happen to live in one of these “Nordics” and alcohol is actually taxed quite heavily here. If we’re looking at change on an individual level, it would actually be good for the society if more people were drinking alcohol, as long as the benefit of them contributing to society through tax euros outweighs the adverse health effects.

This post is not meant to be an objective cost-benefit analysis of alcohol.

Oh, you’re not doing the thing that’s supposedly the entire point of the website? Don’t worry, no one else is either.

I don’t think he ever cared that much about Harry Potter in the first place. Much of HPMOR has these odd little uncommented contradictions with the original books that seem to result from skimming or basing your info on fan wikis.

Who could possibly dislike the smarmy fascist main villain of the story? Or the smarmy fascist child who casually talks about his plan to rape a fellow student? Or the smarmy fascist main character? Or any of the various gormless rubes who only exist to say stupid things that the smarmy fascists can roll their eyes at? Nearly incapable of writing these characters in a dislikeable way.

Oh, not at all. It would be very rude of me to describe C as a pathogen transmitted through the vector of Unix, so I won’t, even if it’s mostly accurate to say so.

Many high level systems programming languages predate C, like the aforementioned Fortran, Pascal, PL/I and the ALGOL family. The main advantage C had over them in the early 1970s was its relatively light implementation. The older, bigger languages were generally considered superior to C for actual practical use on systems that could implement them, i.e. not a tiny cute little PDP-7.

Since then C has grown some more features and a horrible standard filled to the brim with lawyerly weasel words that let compilers optimize code in strange and terrifying ways, allowing it to exists as something of a lingua franca of systems programming, but at the time of its birth C wouldn’t have been seen as anything particularly revolutionary.

Varför måste vi lyssna på det här skit ens i Norden? Vittu saatana.

New Stan Kelly cartoon has a convenient Thiel reaction picture, should someone do a slightly better crop job:

Sniveling H—lerite bag of tepid farts.

Rights holders of Mickey Mouse? The character from the famous public domain animated short Steamboat Willie?

(Pedant disclaimer: I know, later versions of the character are still under copyright protection and Disney still has trademark rights even for the SW version)

About as many as a bittorrent client, i.e. a rounding error.

We’re anti Meta getting away with crimes that decent people of the society get fucked for.

P2P vs FTP or whatever is not the point. Subtitling the article “Lawsuit: Meta may have seeded porn to minors while hiding piracy for AI training.” (emphasis mine) is misleading as it implies they were seeding the files with the intention or purpose to make them available to children.

Also, I find it disingenuous to pretend like seeding a torrent originally published by someone else is the same thing as publishing the file on an FTP site yourself, even if there’s legal precedent for treating it that way. Even if the bytes of the file are flowing out from your computer, that doesn’t mean you’re the one who made the file available, “to minors” or otherwise.
