Good, fiber and beans are important.

Because of all these wokists, I can’t blame my problems on Papist conspiracies anymore!

Panpsychism is now reactionary.

Tiffany as the dark horse. Everyone forgets Tiffany exists. Even the other Trump children.

The Historical Documents!

Someone already pointed out the individual parts, but to give a bit more context, every major party in the German Bundestag has government funded foundation to put out policy ideas and pamphlets/ideological positions. It is an attempt to have a publicly funded and institutional alternative to think tanks. The Rosa Luxemburg Foundation is the Left Party’s (die Linke) foundation. Just as a fun irony the SPD’s foundation is the Friedrich Ebert Foundation.

Since die Linke is in such a dire state and might go through a split (I haven’t kept up to date with where things are currently) there is the possibility the Rosa Luxemburg Foundation might not continue to get public funding and might disappear.

This is actually from the book Alamut that is about a fictionalized version of the historical Assassins. Since the book was published in the 1930’s, there is some possibility that Brothers Karamozov was an influence, though there is an interesting inversion that instead of the moral relativism of a world without God, it is the personal ethos of a sociopath that is using a radical religion to gain unquestioning loyalty and obedience of a group of men for the sake of power.

This is lifted from the novel “Alamut” that the game writers used for inspiration. The novel is about a fictionalized version of the Ismaili, a Muslim group that were referred to as assassins by crusaders because they supposedly used a lot of hash (corruption on “Hashashin”). We don’t know much about these original assassin’s beliefs, because they operated out of a fortress that had its library burned once conquered and so we only know about them through their enemies. The assassins in the book were intended to be an allegorical portrayal of fascists with a very cynical, power hungry leader (this maxim is his own personal philosophy) brainwashing young men to have overwhelming obedience and carry out any violence the leader asked.

TBF, Carrion birds and several apex predator fish (like muskies) could eat landlords. But the fish would need the landlords chopped up into small pieces.

Not too recent, but I think I remember him still posting and calling out Genocide Joe about a month ago on Twitter. He is still around, but because he doesn’t have political office, people don’t pay much attention any more. As far as I remember, he was one of the better Soc Dems rather than an open communist though.

In America, dental and health insurance are separate. And many jobs that provide health insurance can often not provide dental insurance. There is a reason teeth are referred to as the “luxury bones”.

What kind of First Son are you?

Superstar First Son.

It’s been a long time since my exposure to these weirdos, but I think I remember it being some bullshit evo-psych. Because hormonal birth control mimics pregnancy, it turns off women’s preference for good quality mates that will produce good offspring and provide for the family, and instead settle down with a nearby man, since the act is already done.

I haven’t really dived into the IEEE standards here, but this is a real thing and not purely marketing. It is the resolution of the lithography. Due to the higher clock speeds and current resolutions, the capacitance and inductance of the elements set the size of transistors and routing, rather than just how small you can pattern them. So it is not directly increasing transistor density and processing power, but it means that you are patterning elements more accurately to what you designed and have less variation element to element. Meaning that things can be optimized and more consistent.

You always have low yield when developing new processes. You can’t make a 7nm process by just running 14nm at high throughput/low yield. This is just R&D and process development.

I was listening to people reviewing the first season of HBO’s Rome, and what stuck with me is they pointed out that post-2016, the Pompey/Anti-Caesar faction seems like the most out of touch geriatric Democrats. Even if they are in the abstract on the right side, they are so dedicated to the status quo and can’t seem to understand that things have moved on, and people don’t believe in the forms or institutions anymore. So they are stuck defending institutions from the right and complaining about how Trump/Caesar is not following the norms.

When the sky has no rim

I still stand by my stance that Union Pacific is a poorly run railroad.

He’s not man of the year, he is man of the century!
