modern psychiatry be like
  • One example is anti-vaxxers claiming vaccines are causing the increase in autism. When challenged, one possible response they parrot is "well then what is the cause?". The message is that there isn't a cause because there isn't an increase in the first place

  • it's good to look in the mirror and understand the material outcomes of voter behavior
  • The issue with that line of thinking is that your conclusion is that the only way out is superior execution by the Dem party. But that's not the case. The wind CAN choose and can decide to blow us away from the cliff.

  • it's good to look in the mirror and understand the material outcomes of voter behavior
  • If you care whether she won, then yes blame her for losing. That's not what I care about. I care that Trump won. Since there was a much better option available to voters, I blame the voters for that.

    Anyone who thinks Harris was a worse option than Trump is not worth having a conversation with.

  • it's good to look in the mirror and understand the material outcomes of voter behavior
  • I think you're getting your roles all mixed up with your analogy. The anger you reference is at fellow voters. It isn't the average voter's job to build a better rocket. And the wind is not alterable but voter decisions are. The anger is at the decision makers who chose the rocket that was less capable of dealing with the harsh wind or chose to not pick a rocket at all, knowing that would result in the lesser rocket being picked.

  • Anon's PC works
  • I think you're totally right for a load that needs a certain amount of power. But a CPU just needs to be able to flip transistor gates fast enough. They don't draw more current at lower voltage, so the lower the voltage, the lower the power. At some point, too low of a voltage won't let them flip fast enough for a given clock speed (or, eventually, flip at all)

  • "it's making me uncomfortable"
  • You had me until that last group.

    If you opt out of participating, you deserve whatever happens without you.

    We're in this mess arguably because of all the people who chose not to participate.

  • I will judge, and I will not forget
  • But you're negatively judging Harris voters in swing states. To me that's like negatively judging people faced with the trolley problem who chose to pull the lever because death still resulted, and then suggesting the solution instead is to go advocate against trolleys and people who tie people to tracks, when in reality that's the same as not pulling the lever.

  • I will judge, and I will not forget
  • They may have preferred the outcome where she won but that was never going to happen no matter how you voted. The possibility that your vote was the difference between Trump and Harris, on the other hand, was within the realm of possibility.

    We need ranked choice voting. But at the moment we don't have it.
