I don't know about social media, but I have to guess it's probably worse than the IRC or my mother's fax machine circlejerks that most likely dominate chans these days. I'm some nobody on a place that I think was supposed to use telegram behind the scenes, it it's just the biggest shitslide of people who don't even use the main site or spreg to levels most people wouldn't understand without ever having been behind scenes.

I think some of them even use facejew or have werid gaming website accounts. But you know what? I don't care, none of them are mad at me, and I still make fun of them if something slightly clever comes to mind. Drama is for queers, women, faggots, and people who stir shit up out of boredom.

I had assumed this was a straw argument, demanding the other side take a really strong position that people would be compelled to reject. Claiming that telling a friend "please don't do it!" violates a pro-choice stance is just silly. You seem to have now backed off on that but that's what I had been responding to.

I also agree in a fundamental right to end your life, I just don't believe this includes the right to never hear someone ask you to voluntarily choose not to. If they aren't trying to prevent you with force (and voting for a law banning it constitutes force), they're still pro-choice. You can also be conventionally pro-choice with abortion as far as your opinion on laws but politely tell your pregnant friend that you think maybe they shouldn't actually go through with it.

It's important to make this clear since people do take this kind of bullshit to places that actually cause problems. Back when masks were a thing and I opposed them people would tell me that I was "anti-choice" for suggesting people take off their masks. No, that's not how that works. Unless I am trying to remove the right to make the choice from them, I am not anti-choice. I am simply advocating they voluntarily make one choice over another.

Yeah, shortwave is a good start. Elavation (?), getting your antenna high enough for good range.Was an imortant thing an old friend, who was well into it explained.
The way things are going shortwave could be very important.
Just hardly used in UK now.

Another side note, :)
Fans of a horrible band called pychic tv (probable spelt that wrong). Used to broard cast real wierd fing crap late at night after channels ahd stopped broad casting (this was the late 70's & 80's). By using tower blocks. Theyed stick antenna out of a top floor flat and let it drop down (could have that last bit wrong, meh anyone interest do some home work) and pump out there shit.

Would work well I imagine for shortwave HAM sets.

> I wouldn't mess too much with earth resonant frequencies because that could get get military attention and that's the wrong kind of attention.

Oh for sure if you can drop a wire from somewhere high up in an apartment building that'll do wonders as an antenna. Transmitting with it efficiently and not ruining your equipment takes some tuning, but that's part of what separates out the kind of people who probably shouldn't be transmitting too far or too loud anyway. For reception, that'd be killer.

And I'm serious about earth resonant frequencies. No normal radio rig is going to operate at like 10Hz and all the rest, but they use that for very low bandwidth communications for submarines and whatever where you don't have a lot of options beyond using the entire planet as an antenna. Your main audience is going to be the people you didn't want to contact.

I would also like to advise that I have confirmed with my own scientific testing that if you can some bit of exposed steel that connects to the internal structure of a steel and concrete building. Or on occasion you might find a bit that connects to a steel roof or something like that. If you can get a decent electrical connection to it, then that can become a great receiving antenna.

Usually these same steel structures are grounded to hell and back again for safety and because that's how you anchor a steel building into the ground anyway. But if you can connect far enough above the crust of the earth, then you get the differential effects of being below ground vs. above it like a ground plane antenna. If you have a one-wire antenna, then just connect it up as high as you can get (cf. metal roof). A differential antenna, put the other lead as far down as you can get it. Then the entire internal structure of the building is your reception.

We all appreciate things as we get older. That's why I save shit in the present. >,<

>>25197
Meh. I think it waxes and wanes.
Some stuff we liked when younger we discard now, while others we save more of.

>>25198
Deffo waxes and wanes. Everything has ebb and flow. But when I look back, I think what a shame it was that I was so picky about only saving a tippy-toppest things I thought I'd like to remember because storage space was at so much more of a premium then.

And now with the ubquity of bigass SSDs, gobs of RAM, and heaps of cores, it's not nearly as herculean a task to sort, index, transfer, or otherwise manage a ton of noise just to maintain whatever your future self might decide was the relevant signal buried within it.

Slavery back then was not racial. It was all about financial. Also, those "whites" werent WASPs. They were Meds.
And yes, we are all familiar with imperialists using their fellow white brethren to build their golden nests. Thats why we have so many differing ideologues.
Youre preaching to the choir.
Please stop making this into "whites dindunuffin"

Yes we’ll it wasn’t chattel slavery either. One could fall into debt, go into slavery to repay that debt and then buy your way back out again. It was very different in many, many ways than the halfassed American version of slavery, bc civilized Ancient Greece > medieval British United States.

Even in North America, history has been distorted to make it all about the African slaves, when there were far more indigenous slaves than African slaves. …because they were already here, the tribes were in tatters, and they were scattered and easily rounded up. But since most Americans live in cities post-war, when urban people look around they see black people, so that’s who they think of associated with slavery. …whereas there are no representatives from some United federation of tribes to have a voice in Murrica’s halfassed coming to terms with its history. The 15 million or so native ppl are out of sight, out of mind. Embarrassingly, most white Americans have no idea any native people survived at all and think everyone must be 1/128th Cherokee or something. Oh well.

The Old Testament talks about debt forgiveness every seven years.
That event was called jubilation.
Hence why we have the jubilee event every forty-nine/fifty years.

Female youth is a goddess complex. All these reactive incense are the same ons simping after young women, feeding the female ego.

She is so fucking fat with arms that skinny? WTF is wrong with Americans.

It does look like she has an impossibly small arm, but I think you might just be seeing part of the bus because she's pointing at the camera.

Im starting to wonder about the practical purposes of higher education.
Like why do we need to study so much shit for stuff we will never use again in our lives ?

We are seeing a reduction in industrial skills and socialisation.

People waste their entire youth on finding the right college and affordable housing and for what? To get a degree that serves as window dressing?

>>25216

Yes, the system is arbitrary. It was made to specifically cater to one type of learner. The "sit down and study" learner. And it's unfair for us "get up and do" learners.

However, we live in an unfair world, and the unfairness must be accounted for.

>>25225
Its being accounted for alright.
With burned out NEETs and ethots and whatnot.

College education was in better shape pre-1980.
Back when it was rightfully assumed that only the best and brightest of kids went.
Back when it was only for the exceptionally gifted and wealthy.
After all, college was built by rich and gifted for the rich ans gifted.
Poor gifted kids were allowed in, but they had to prove their mettle, which they did.

Aaa
