It's always strange how the US uses its unparalleled military and economic power to strangle and suffocate the economies of small nations it dislikes, then points to the intended devastation as proof that those countries are bad and don't work, with no reference to the US role.
America has 5,427 data centers.
China has 513.
China has roughly 5× the population.
There is no “AI race” in any meaningful material sense. There is a U.S. infrastructure blitz dressed up as geopolitical destiny.
Fuck the propaganda.
@MissEvaStyles@Yeg510 They live in these weird conformist echo-chambers where everything is bad and/or woke until their favourite unwashed streamer tells them it’s okay to like it
@MissEvaStyles@Yeg510 Gamers today still game, it’s just they’re superficial; reactionary/averse to critical thought – not to mention people that like competitive, live service or multiplayer loop games (i.e COD) are looking for the same gratification from narrative games without engaging with them
@paragonpostcard Shhh You aren’t allowed to think critically about this movie. Just call it bad because [reason] and watch those sick fight scenes from the prequels instead 💯
The responses to this tweet highlight just how disingenuous Star Wars fans are. Every comment is the same copypasta about why bleeding crystals is “bad” but not one explanation as to why. Meanwhile they want synthetic crystals back; something never even mentioned in old canon
Not counting comics or novelizations, ‘Star Wars Jedi: Survivor’ is the first on screen depiction of a Kyber Crystal being bled in Star Wars. Seeing the tension grow with Dagan recounting his events of the High Republic Era, Cal's reaction, and music makes this scene so great !!!
Mayor Zohran Mamdani's plan to open five publicly subsidised grocery stores in NYC moves forward with two sites, $70M in capital, and broad public support. Available in EN, ES, AR and RU. https://t.co/VTqCDrnrMx
@theweirdinggay Of course the parasocial George stans won’t see it like that and will insist anything he didn’t personally sign off on is an indictment of his work
@theweirdinggay Fire & Blood is basically two thirds of a book with all finer detail removed which is why it was written so seamlessly for George.
It’s also why the show is almost impossible to adapt faithfully and any expatiation on the characters makes them objectively more interesting
There are enough resources on this planet for every living human. There are not enough resources on this planet for the fossil fuel industry, unregulated deforestation, data centers, private jets, and endless wars.
we don’t need to halve the population. thats eco facism. we need to get rid of militaries (responsible for 70% of emissions), data centers, companies that produce single use plastic, and switch out of fossil fuels to clean energy. but they’d rather let people die than do that
