Rogan was fine on NewsRadio, Fear Factor, etc. He used to believe in facts.

Don’t believe me? https://youtu.be/9lD29jqH078

Only 6 years ago he debated on the side of climate change (which almost all scientists say is a thing and apolitical).

But with the unprecedented $250 million Spotify deal he’s now very rich and with that comes massive entitlement, greed, and wanting to control everyone, so he just regurgitates right-wing talking points like all the other rich assholes. If he sounds just like all the other Fox/NewsMax/OAN liars spouting propaganda, it’s because that level of wealth literally changes you and now you’re obsessed with only making the number go up. He literally laughed at the thought of the most vulnerable people (unhoused) dying in the fire! Fuck Joe Rogan, I regret the one stand-up show of his I attended…

Or Jennifer Facebook.

Uh, if you can’t tell the difference between voting and bullying, I don’t know what to tell you.

I guess I was thinking like the majority would have to vote you out, that kind of thing…

If you grow it, that’s great! If a “mob of users” votes you out… that’s the community.

I’m not familiar with that term. I thought we were discussing why it’s rational?

But I’m not. To distill my rambling: it’s not rational to feel the need to “cozy up to an incoming fascist dictator.” Because billionaires simply don’t have needs. Housing, healthcare, education, food, security, it’s all paid for, for the next 100 generations. That was my point.

The parts about morality were 100% me ranting…

Uh, it’s the Goon Jar! Have some respect.

“Internal conversations and five people interviewed.”

Let’s be honest. For current employees, it’s probably 10-100 times that. If my company did something controversial and then the press asked me for a reaction, I’d say “no comment” like it’s my catch phrase. Unless you already have a job lined up (that can’t be undone by “badmouthing your employer”), no one’s being open and truthful.

“Rational”!? No, that’s false. Though it might be reasonable for someone who works for a living. But the only thing they are risking is their “high score”, nothing else. Literally nothing a billionaire does is rational, and that goes for every single one of them. I feel like we all constantly forget how much $1 billion is. https://mkorostoff.github.io/1-pixel-wealth/ These people have several or hundreds of times that! Don’t forget they didn’t actually earn it. Plus, it’s still not enough. They choose to spend their time “working” and influencing governments instead of spending time with family. Power and money, they can never have enough…

Can you imagine your generational line’s entire lives being paid for before they’re even born plus the ability to literally solve suffering in society. Homelessness? Malnourishment? Drought? Hunger? The amount of wealth they sit on could literally solve any problem, anywhere in the world with a signed check and it wouldn’t even affect their day-to-day life at all. They just choose not to. I can’t imagine it. That’s what’s wrong with billionaires and why they’re not rational at all…

it’s me

The biggest issue for me is compatibility.

Swippitt works with any phone as long as there’s a case designed for it. That way, a single hub can serve a whole household of people with different phone models.

Makes sense. Similar to the replacement phone batteries we used to have…

At launch, it will offer cases for the iPhone 14, 15, and 16 series, and the company plans to expand with Samsung Galaxy S series cases by the end of 2025.

Soo… They’ll support some iPhones at launch, and in about a year, they hope to support some Galaxy phones. If being a hub is one of your selling points, that’s a very underwhelming, limited list.

Lol, “access your data” is a little different from “overwrite cookies, now sending all promised creator revenue to Honey”. Also, it found discounts, but stores had full control over how much, and even if it didn’t give you a discount, it still claimed all referral revenue… Don’t act like that was all obvious, intuitive, and known by you, it wasn’t.

I’m so, so sick of these comments every time some shady shit is uncovered. “How could no one else see this, you’re all so stupid, I knew from the very first ad!”

Yes yes, you’re mommy’s special little genius, despite conspicuously absent comments from that time…

It’s a lot easier and cheaper to replace a small device (Roku, Apple TV, Nvidia Shield, Chromecast, Fire Stick, XBMC box, computer, etc) than it is your entire TV. Once you connect and update your TV, I don’t think you can choose to downgrade it later…

That comment is incorrect, at least for current model. Source: Samsung TV is not connected to the internet.

This is false. I just bought a brand-new current-model Samsung QN90D QLED TV. Like any modern device it nags you to connect to WiFi/Ethernet during the setup, but the “decline” button is not hidden and it’s completely optional. Not sure if that’s on-par with older models, but I just have it connected to my external Roku and several consoles via HDMI. Completely offline. No ads on the home screen (not that I really use it, I just switch inputs). All features are available: 4K, AI upscaling, HDR+, 144hz gaming mode, etc…

I guess we have different definitions of what “best” means.

It’s like when I make it rain or snow by washing my vehicle! I’m giving you part of the credit for it being future-focused…

Using a release Valve.
