It should be the Battle Hymn of the Republic, just with some of the original lyrics:

John Brown’s body lies a moldering in the grave

John Brown’s body lies a moldering in the grave

John Brown’s body lies a moldering in the grave

But his truth keeps marching on

or

We’ll hang Jeff Davis from a crab apple tree

We’ll hang Jeff Davis from a crab apple tree

We’ll hang Jeff Davis from a crab apple tree

John Brown’s truth keeps marching on.

Wages of Fear (1953) One of the best thrillers I’ve ever seen.

It was remade in 1977 and called “Sorcerer”. I’ve never seen that version and neither has anyone else because it opened against Star Wars.

If you examine closely, you’ll see there is no AI, but Vin Diesel reading a script (written by humans).

It’s really not surprising that the most homophobic are queer themselves. Imagine how much you would resent someone who got to openly express what you’ve worked so hard to suppress.

Debian cut ties in January, so if you quit after that, you’re officially slower to change than Debian.

The number of possible combinations of genes is so large that the chance of a random duplication is vanishingly small. Even twins aren’t exact copies because they’ll have mutations unique to themselves.

Epstein killed himself. (same for Gary Webb)

Too many people think suicide is rare, or extreme act. But it’s common as dirt especially for people who’s life is ruined. It’s a joke in movies that “new fish” looking at long sentences kill themselves, but somehow when it happens to someone notable, it’s mysterious and suspicious.

Also, the idea that there was a conspiracy to murder Epstein in prison and cover it up by powerful people is an extraordinary claim with the flimsiest possible evidence.

Nobody has racist field trip yet? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oomlb9xm-YQ

A lot of people compare Trump to Hitler, but as apt as that may be sometimes, Hitler was a dilettante intellectual; he was a reader. And as painful as it might be to anyone who’s tried to read it, Hitler did write his own book.

I don’t remember the character well, but besides being a real-estate guy, I don’t see the connection between Trump and Fontaine. Fontaine was evil and all, but he was also hyper competent, organized, and had consistent ideology.

I hate the idea that watching ads or donating money to “support” creators. Youtube gets their content for free, why shouldn’t I?

And it’s not just content creators. Nobody shops anymore, they support business. Capitalism has camouflaged consumerism as political /social activism and it makes me sick!

The TOR project in it’s entirety was created by the CIA for secure communications. It’s public because no matter how secure, if only spies use TOR, then it would be easy to catch them.

I don’t mean to imply that TOR is insecure, it’s open source and the Government has an interest that it be secure. But if you’re going to annoy the US government, you better have good opsec because they understand TOR better than anyone.

For the curious: “War on Science” is a book of essays including Lawrence Kraus (whom “edits” the volume) and Richard Dawkins.

You might think that this book would be about RFKjr or the collapse of US funding for research. No. The ‘war on science’ is when academics are held accountable to woke ideology i.e. being disciplined for having sex with your students. It’s publisher doesn’t usually cover science, mostly selling books about fundamental Christianity.

For those of us who watched the brain-rot of Islamophobia and misogyny take over the skeptic community back in the early 2010s, it’s no surprise that these men turned out to be grifters in bed with fundamentalist Christians over their shared hatred of Muslims and women.

There is so much more to the video. Including specifics about some of the essays and their authors; the Jeffery Epstein connection; and how feminism destroyed the “new atheist” movement.

Alex Karp’s behavior is much better explained by cocaine. He may be neurodivergent, but he was still high as giraffe pussy.

There is a movie with Margo Robbie called Terminal. The reason I know this is because if you type “terminal” into the Start Menu of a fresh copy of Windows 11, it’s the first result.

That keyboard looks really nice, but the placement of the R CTRL would cause me fits.

Your question doesn’t make sense. “freedom of speech” is a political right to prevent government censorship. Internet forums have moderation and that’s different from censorship because it’s a private space.

If someone came to your house and started insulting you and your family would you tolerate it in the name of freedom or would you tell the jerk to shut up and get out?

LOL, You mean the letters C and P can stand for lots of stuff. At first I thought you meant the term “child porn” was ambiguous.

PBS Space Time is routinely over my head and I love it.

I hate graphic depictions of sexual violence. Moves like “A Clockwork Orange”, “The Accused”, and “Requiem for a Dream” all have scenes that I wish I didn’t remember.

Content warnings are information that allow media watchers to make informed decisions. People who are annoyed by them are just contrarian assholes with the teenage mentality that gore and cusswords are cool.

Seeing something objectionable in media is not a “growth through suffering”. It is also not censorship. Nobody ever became a Nazi simply by reading Mien Kampf. (It’s usually complaining about made up shit like cancel-culture that pushes the dim-whited into the far-right).

There should have been a content warning on this thread: graphic depictions of boomer philosophy.
