This feels like a lot of straw man arguments?

No it doesn’t?

Did anyone ever claim these things?

Yes?

Are these problems to implementing SMR? I don’t think so.

OK, but aside from lower efficiency, higher price per watt, and not solving any of the problems they’re supposed to solve, are there any problems with SMR? I don’t think so.

I’m a centrist. I think we should aim for the halfway point between basic human decency and hateful cruelty. I’m also willing to move towards the hateful cruelty to appease the right, because I’m a moderate.

I appreciate the phrasing “NFTs that cost millions” instead of “NFTs worth millions”.

Still frustrated over the fact that search engines just don’t work anymore. I sometimes come up with puns involving a malapropism of some phrase and I try and see if anyone’s done anything with that joke, but the engines insist on “correcting” my search into the statistically more likely version of the phrase, even if I put it in quotes.

Also all the top results for most searches are blatant autoplag slop with no informational value now.

A whole generation is leaning more socialist because homeownership is unattainable and student debt is crushing. The solution is whatever is the latest big tech fad.

Just like all of gen X’s problems would have been solved with more .com, right?

I’m not polite to chatbots because I don’t use them in the first place.

Hell yeah rule by dickgirls

Why do people think this appplies only to Firefox? Is it because it’s checking for “Mozilla” in the UA string? Might wanna check what their own browser uses (I don’t care what browser you have, it probably has “Mozilla” in the user agent string)

Really manning that steel bro. It must have taken a lot of effort not to put the echo symbols on (((DEI shibboleths))). Out of spite, I’ll now proceed to somehow incorporate the idea that white people cause earthquakes into my worldview.

I dunno, how’s the “I’m not Donald Trump” platform been working out so far?

the hawk tuah teapot is actually hysterical which is how I knew the poster was taking the piss

Oh, but you see the axis powers only ever wanted to conquer most of Europe, North Africa, a bunch of islands in the Pacific, most of Southeast Asia, Korea and large parts of mainland China, which the allies would have been completely fine with. Nothing suggests they would actually go for full conquest victory. What is a “Lebensraum”? Is it a type of cheese?

Unusually shit take on WW2 but not an unusually shit take from Moldbug. Just the usual level of shit.

What kind of a cost is low enough that eight billion people can pay it for their legitimate communications without burning the planet too much, but also high enough that a spammer with a botnet won’t bother to let other people’s machines pay the cost?

I don’t think that simile quite lands. Hindenburg worked as expected until its sudden catastrophic demise and hydrogen caused both the function and the failure. Zero knowledge proofs neither make cryptocoins work nor are they the reason why they don’t work.

A more apt comparison is something like saying levers are the technology behind this perpetual motion machine.

The design incorporates levers that fail to make the device function, but it’s not like levers are useless because of that.

You gotta be careful not to joke in a way that’s indistinguishable from real shitcoin spam 🙃

She Licking my County till I back away is this anything?

I just bought a humanoid robot servant! I also got a machine that lets her do chores in my house.

And as the same channel demonstrates, there are ways to fly without any wings at all

Man, it’s really true what they say: the West can’t meme.
