It’s a scam that took advantage of the fact people think of data as a metaphysical entity instead of physical inscriptions. I think most people can see how an original image would have value, but the understanding that the original version of something like a sports photo never actually leaves the SD card of the photographer that took it isn’t wide spread. To buy the original you would have to buy that SD card. I expect it’s the same scam that will be repeated as they fool people with transhumanist nonsense about leaving your physical body and living on the net.

I mean there was nothing technically stopping the left from forming a voting block, using it’s funding to expand to unserved areas, using its platforms to coordinate and refocusing away from charities to the same community orgs the right built. DSA itself was the one who voted down the people trying to do this, doomers lashed out at people trying do this, told everybody to shut up and stop talking about it. The whole “woe is me every thing is fucked” thing is a deliberate affect the left adopted to pretend like this was a valiant defeat. It’s really Pelosi-esque in that way.

Like I’m not sympathetic to it at all anymore because I think the material base of the “left” is really within these liberal institutions and that’s the core thing stopping any real mobilization. The right is the one more willing to break with the status quo. In that way the US left doesn’t really exist right now. It’s probably something that will form as the current profiteering schemes collapse, the material needs remain and something has to be figured out.

i think in general with her and the breadtube people they rejected lenin but didn’t replace him with anything so there isn’t any deeper methodology there. All they can really do is toss ideas at the largest possible platform and somewhat ironically hope a lenin type figure emerges holding them. To be fair Aimee at least admits she doesn’t know what to do

I’m pretty sure it’s because the hogs absorbed a ton of 4chan misanthropes who have continued trying to kill off anyone willing to interact with them for fun. Those early post on The Donald and Facebook with boomers realizing something was actually seriously wrong with channers were on the money, but those communities were hollowed out propaganda dumps with no way to act on that intuition to protect anyone in the community. The boomers are really easy targets and they are getting fucked up.

The only way to really know for sure is to swap in a PSU you know is healthy. The problem with diagnosing PSU stuff is the thing can be outwardly perfectly fine and will be normal for most use, but something like bad house wiring, cheap design or a brown out will cause it to perform outside of its specs and cause all kinds of instability that looks like your other components failing because they aren’t getting power within the expected margins anymore.
