I fucking hate that I learned what this means a month ago.

Bought myself a ZigBee coordinator and started pairing some devices.

Sweet! That was easy, now all that's left are the Tuya ceiling fans

Little did I know, what was about to happen would cost me my sanity.

Honestly, just give me a fucking HP printer and ask me to connect it to my computer from the other side of the world.

And the texture, like a dry snowball?

Most of the American history revolves around how the Japanese treated the Prisoners of War, who were all men.

Ask the Koreans or Chinese what they thought about the Japanese occupation of their countries a hundred years ago.

For the uninitiated, this is a representation of the Survivorship Bias.

Essentially, the red dots represent bullet holes from aircraft which returned from battle.

If you were to ask someone which places should be reinforced with armour, someone who has the Survivorship Bias would say "where the red dots are", whereas people who know anything about engineering would say "everywhere else!"

It's like saying: "why are you wearing a helmet? I've met hundreds of soldiers and none of them have ever been shot in the head, helmets are a waste of good armour."

A true fact: Did you know wearing a helmet increases your chances of dying of cancer.

Nano.. Pfff...

Requires three dependencies, while Vi requires one. Everyone can see how bloated your system is. You should be embarrassed.

Hey guys, check out this resource beast and laugh! Ha ha ha!

Most people in this thread don't get it.

You know how some people compete to see who can get Doom to run on the craziest platforms, like a calculator?

Installing Arch with the fewest packages is like that. There's something oddly satisfying about stripping everything back to the most basic level - to make things work for you within the most constrictive environment you enforce for yourself.

It's like eating a spicy shellfish dinner and super gluing your asshole closed.

At the risk of sounding critical of your hobby, to argue the imperfections improve the experience sounds somewhat culty.

I understand there is something akin to "character" which you don't get from something highly polished. I know when things sound too clean it can feel sterile.

I accept vinyl has a collectors value, but anything claims regarding preference come across as either pretentious or deluded (to me, as someone who probably can't tell the difference).

I use Arch BTW

I mean, unless you promted it to be an abomination, you would get a normal chick with a high enough denoise level lol

Okay you've convinced me this is a good idea.

How do I give consciousness to the "antivirus" software on my parents computers, so I can digitally rape if for a thousand years?

Did you come here from Tumbler?

Good to know, though the point remains; people will readily accept claims which absolve them of guilt.

You essentially just illustrated it. Even though they aren't screaming, it says nothing about whether they feel pain.

Thanks for taking the intuitive to flip the question.

The next question is: what metric are you using to determine that 100 cat deaths is roughly equivalent to one person having a fingernail pulled out? Why 100? Why not a million?

Do you think there is an objective formula to determine how much suffering is produced by?

In the example the sadist is torturing the AI because it's convenient and safe, not because they hate the AI.

If they wanted to hurt real people too, but couldn't because they would get found, then it wouldn't be a hate-crime.

If I was torturing a Korean because a Korean was the only one who responded to my All-You-Can-Eat-Tteok-Bokki-In-My-Basement flier, then I would be torturing them because they're Korean, but it wouldn't be a hate-crime because I'm not doing it because I hate Koreans.

Don't worry, I haven't made any judgements about you.

And I wasn't implying that you were implying that I was implying genocide being comparable, I just thought it was funny that we both thought that.

In some sense the combined suffering of all people involved in a genocide is horrific. But if you were to lay out the experiences of everyone involved in a genocide end-to-end, and compare that to an equivalent length of time to ceaseless sadistic torture of one person, the torture is going to be worse.

However, there is value besides personal experience which is lost during a genocide. That's what makes it hard to compare the two.

Had to edit the post to change "crime" to "atrocity" because people were taking it literally.

It's funny that when I considered this, I thought about asking whether people would think it was worse than genocide, but decided against that because some people might think my opinion is "genocide isn't as bad as bullying a robot".

I'm not cultured enough to have read this.

imagine wasting all 387.44 million miles of circuitry on the word "hate". TLDR NPC. Get skinpilled hater.
