Going to bed late is associated with a higher IQ.
Researchers at the London School of Economics analyzed thousands of individuals to map the relationship between circadian rhythms and cognitive ability.
People with higher IQs are significantly more likely to be night owls.
The data breaks it down by sleep schedules:
• Very Dull (IQ < 75): Sleep by 11:41 PM
• Normal (IQ 90–110): Sleep by 12:10 AM
• Very Bright (IQ > 125): Sleep by 1:44 AM (and sleep in past 11:00 AM on weekends)
Why? Evolutionary psychology.
For 99% of human history, night was for sleeping. Artificial light didn't exist. Staying up late chasing complex thoughts, building projects, or solving problems is an "evolutionarily novel preference."
People with higher general intelligence are more equipped to override ancestral instincts, break away from the traditional sun-up-sun-down routine, and adapt to a modern, 24/7 world.
The early bird might get the worm.
But the night owl gets the higher IQ score.
De sidste 5 års terror angreb i EU:
2021 - Islam 3 - Venstre 1 - Højre 0
2022 - Islam 2 - Venstre 13 - Højre 1
2023 - Islam 5 - Venstre 23 - Højre 0
2024 - Islam 6 - Venstre 17 - Højre 1
2025 - Islam 9 - Venstre 11 - Højre 1
Scorecard:
Islam - 25
Venstre - 65
Højre - 3
Men husk nu det er højrefløjs-terror vi skal fokusere på.
The EU just killed DIY PCB design
With the new tax on imports (3€ per import of each category)
I now would have to pay 3€ for every PCB component that I have to solder at home
I can't buy PCB components in Germany because THEY ARE NOT EVEN MANUFACTURED HERE ANYWHERE ITS JUST CHINA AND AMERICA
So instead of 20 bucks for one prototype PCB with 20 different components
It's now 80€
Fuck you @vonderleyen
The EU Parliament voted 311 to 228 in March to kill Chat Control.
Parliament rejected it.
Dead.
Expired April 3.
The Council’s own lawyers said it violates the right to privacy under EU law.
Signal said they would leave Europe rather than scan messages.
WhatsApp said the same.
500 cryptographers signed an open letter calling it dangerous.
Everyone said no.
Yesterday the EU Council brought it back anyway.
Using a second reading procedure that requires Parliament to find 361 absolute votes to kill it again.
That threshold is almost impossible to hit.
The Parliament voted 311 against.
Now they need 361 against.
The Council used a procedure that has no clear precedent in EU history.
Roberta Metsola, the President of Parliament, is helping push it through.
Even though Parliament she leads already rejected it.
The vote is Thursday.
If it passes platforms must scan every message before encryption happens.
Hash-matching against known databases.
Machine learning for unknown material.
Real-time text analysis for grooming patterns.
All warrantless.
All without judicial oversight.
All catching innocent people at 13-20 percent false positive rates.
Millions of flags per day in the EU.
All of it.
The Parliament said no.
The Council heard no.
Scheduled a vote Thursday anyway.
The rules of democracy do not apply when the outcome is predetermined.
This is how “DEMOCRACY” works in Europe:
⛔️ 314 vote AGAINST mass surveillance.
✅ 276 vote FOR it.
MASS SURVEILLANCE WINS.
Then the same bureaucratic hypocrites travel the world lecturing everyone about democracy and their so-called “European values.”
WELCOME TO THE EUSSR.
Depuis 50 ans, la gauche a réussi le plus grand hold-up intellectuel de l'histoire moderne.
Pas avec des armes. Pas avec des lois. Avec des mots.
Et honnêtement ? Chapeau. C'est génial. C'est diabolique. C'est du grand art.
Ils ont compris une chose qu'Orwell avait écrite noir sur blanc dans 1984 : celui qui contrôle le langage contrôle la pensée. Change les mots, et tu changes ce que les gens sont capables de penser. Rétrécis le vocabulaire, et tu rétrécis le champ du possible.
Dans 1984, ce n'est pas un détail. C'est le cœur du réacteur. Le ministère de la Vérité fabrique les mensonges. Le ministère de l'Amour torture. Le ministère de la Paix fait la guerre. « La guerre c'est la paix, la liberté c'est l'esclavage. » La novlangue ne décrit pas le monde — elle le remplace.
Et c'est exactement ce qui s'est passé. Regardez la mécanique :
Le « progressisme » ? C'est l'anti-progrès. Ceux qui bloquent le nucléaire, qui freinent la tech, qui diabolisent la croissance, qui rêvent de décroissance et veulent punir ceux qui construisent. Le mot dit « avant ». Le projet dit « arrière ».
L'« antiracisme » ? Il a réinjecté la race partout. Il assigne les gens à leur couleur, les enferme dans des cases, dresse les groupes les uns contre les autres. Un mouvement censé effacer la race l'a remise au centre de tout. Il a fabriqué le racisme qu'il prétend combattre.
Les croisades « contre l'homophobie » ? Elles crispent, elles clivent, elles imposent — et fabriquent en retour une partie du rejet qu'elles disaient vouloir éteindre.
La « protection » façon Union européenne ? C'est du flicage. On te surveille « pour ton bien », on te censure « pour te protéger », on te contrôle « pour ta sécurité ». Chaque mot est une inversion. Le vocabulaire de la bienveillance au service d'un projet orwellien.
Et le plus beau dans l'arnaque, c'est le verrou. Le piège parfait.
Aujourd'hui, des millions de gens lucides, qui voient parfaitement le problème… se taisent. Pourquoi ? Parce qu'ils refusent d'être traités de « racistes ». Sauf qu'être « antiraciste » au sens où le mot a été retourné, c'est précisément devenir raciste. Ils ont piégé les gens avec leur propre morale. Échec et mat.
Voilà le chef-d'œuvre : ils n'ont pas eu besoin de vous convaincre. Ils ont juste rendu le désaccord impensable, en confisquant les mots pour le formuler.
Alors oui — respect. Bonne guerre. Ils ont joué une manche, et ils l'ont gagnée.
Mais il y a un truc que la novlangue n'avait pas prévu.
Tout le monde a compris.
Le voile est tombé. Les mots reprennent leur poids. Et une inversion sémantique ne survit pas à l'instant précis où les gens la voient à l'œil nu. Ça, c'est terminé.
On reprend les mots. On reprend le réel. On reprend la partie.
Ah yes, I forgot. Today is the day the @EUCouncil fucks everyone in Europe who buys from Aliexpress.
We should mark this stupidity annually.
Not a single thing I've bought on Ali is also made in Europe.
The only businesses they are "protecting" are rent-seeking middlemen.
God forbid you buy things directly from the manufacturer as opposed to a drop shipper that slaps a 5x markup on the exact same product
If the issue was things like Temu and Shein they could've applied the fee only to specific items like clothing. Many spare parts and electronics are literally only made in China.
NUCLEAR POWER.
IT DOESN'T CARE IF THE SUN'S SHINING OR THE WIND'S BLOWING.
IT DOESN'T NEED BATTERIES FULL OF COBALT OR LITHIUM DUG UP BY CONGOLESE CHILD SLAVES IN CHINESE-OWNED MINES.
AND IT HAS LOWER LIFETIME GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS THAN SOLAR, AND ABOUT THE SAME AS WIND.
IT'S NOT EVIL DEVIL MAGIC. IT'S METAL THAT GETS HOT AND BOILS WATER TO MAKE STEAM THAT TURNS TURBINES.
THERE'S NO SMOKE. THE SHIT THAT COMES OUT OF THE COOLING TOWER IS JUST STEAM.
NUCLEAR PRODUCES AT LEAST A HUNDRED TIMES LESS RADIOACTIVE POLLUTION THAN COAL WHICH CONTAINS TRACE RADIOACTIVE ELEMENTS WHICH GO INTO THE AIR WHEN BURNED.
NUCLEAR POWER DOESN'T HAVE THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE ALL NUCLEAR WASTE IS CONTAINED, AND NO NUCLEAR WASTE CASKET HAS EVER LEAKED IN THE HISTORY OF AMERICAN NUCLEAR POWER.
NUCLEAR POWER IS SAFE.
IT'S EFFECTIVE.
IT DOES LESS DAMAGE TO THE ENVIRONMENT THAN COAL, OR EVEN WIND AND SOLAR WHICH REQUIRE A FUCK TON OF LAND AND TOXIC METALS FOR WHICH WE HAVE NO PLAN TO DEAL WITH.
NUCLEAR POWER IS THE CLOSEST THING TO A PERFECT ENERGY SOURCE THE HUMAN SPECIES HAS EVER DISCOVERED.
WE'VE HAD THE TECHNOLOGY SINCE THE 1950S. IF WE EMBRACED IT FROM THE START, WE WOULDN'T HAVE CLIMATE CHANGE TODAY. WE COULD HAVE HAD ALL OF THE AIR CONDITIONING WE EVER WANTED, ALONG WITH EVERY OTHER MODERN CONVENIENCE WE'RE CONSTANTLY SHAMED FOR TODAY.
BUT WE SAID NO.
WHAT THE FUCK ARE WE DOING AS A SPECIES?
ARE WE FUCKING RETARDED?
Yes this is why Western Europe used to hang 1% of each generation
For centuries, every crime of any seriousness was a hanging offense, and generally these sentences were enforced
Over time, hanging all thieves/rapists/murderers/etc meant that such genres were plucked from the gene pool, and European civilization could, in the 18th and 19th centuries, focus on building great empires and cultivation of high civilization rather than on how to handle reducing recidivism amongst the petty criminals who make life unbearable
If you want a pleasant and cultured civilization, the path to that begins with the gallows and gibbet for the problem causing 1%
