Quit making me idolize him dammit


The people who called me crazy because “there’s no way your phone can be listening in on you all the time” are the same people who are going to be the most excited about this “feature”


I seriously thought that segment was satire. The host saying “it’s American Flag Blue” while pointing at an Undrained Swamp Green reflecting pool is like something out of SNL
Segment starts at 60 seconds, if the link doesn’t work
Yeah, the two together is one of the options on there. For the same reason that some search queries return those runes with a 1488 appended
“[…] that they are all now nazis.”
“[…] people are going to treat you like you’re a nazi.”
Spot the difference. I’ll give you a hint: one of them involves being a nazi, and one of them involves being mistaken for a nazi. You managed to misread my comment so badly that you thought I was saying that everyone who has 88 in their username is a nazi, and that’s because you can’t read.
But even that’s totally irrelevant. I specified 1488 in my comment. You know anyone with 1488 in their username who isn’t a nazi? Because if you do, I have bad news about your nazi friend.
Even moreso with ϟϟ. Much like 1488, it only means one thing. The people who use it virtually always use it to mean that one thing. It is very hard to stumble into accidentally using it, and if you do, you should be embarrassed for having stumbled into using nazi symbolism.
There is one innocent explanation, with a big caveat: some child-left-behind in marketing googled “Slavic emojis” and found this page, and clicked on a few random ones, not knowing about the connotations some of them have.
Caveat: they didn’t send the email in Germany, so someone knew it was nazi shit and sent it anyway
they are now all Nazis
Well that’s not what I said, is it? My favorite thing about Lemmings is that none of you can read. Do you maybe want to try this one again? I’ll give you a free redo
There’s no misconstruing, 1488 is a nazi dogwhistle whether someone intends it to be or not. If your username includes that number, you should delete that account and make a different one, because people are gonna treat you like a nazi.
Just using 88 is slightly less unacceptable, but the same thing applies; if your username includes that number, people are going to treat you like you’re a nazi.
ϟϟ has exactly one meaning in the modern day. You can use those runes without knowing that meaning, but that meaning is still there. It is nazi symbolism whether you intend your use of it to be or not.
It’s bad because the SS appropriated it and stripped all other meaning from it. It’s like using the number 1488 in a username. It only means one thing, and while it’s possible to stumble into it by accident, it remains a white supremacist dogwhistle
The main issue is that ϟϟ was both totally irrelevant to the topic besides being vaguely Slavic, and also literally the logo for the SS. In the modern day, that is its only connotation. It’s not in its original context, it’s just random runes thrown together
Sent a newsletter to half their customers containing “Slavic runes” (literally the logo for the SS) to promote some Slavic fantasy game
Imo it’s even odds between some marketing child-left-behind googling “Slavic runes” to add to their email, and some 4channer on the team thinking they’re making a funny joke. The fact that they recognized the issue enough to know that couldn’t send the email in Germany, but sent it everywhere else anyway, makes me lean a little bit more toward the latter


Now to be totally fair, 325 is 325 more than 0, which would be the ideal number of 3d printed guns used in crime… But also, how many of those 3d printed gun users had access to a different gun and simply opted for the 3d printed one? I get the feeling it was somewhere around 325 of them
This is all ignoring the fact that I’m using a very liberal definition of the phrase “3d printed gun.” I doubt anyone is using Songbirds for armed robberies lmao


They’ll ask chatgpt to generate it. It doesn’t need to be viable, it just needs to be impossible for manufacturers to comply with


Everytown for Gun Safety says recoveries of 3D-printed crime guns across 20 cities have risen nearly 1,000% over the past five years,
So… They found a total of ten 3d printed guns in the last 5 years?


I would love to see a politician try to fire a gun printed like that. Genuinely, it would be fun to see it explode in their hands


Me when I walk 30 feet to the east and buy a gun under the table with no paperwork for less than the cost of a 3d printer


But it CAN force your printer not to print that replacement hot glue gun trigger. After all, there’s nothing in the law that says that this software has to allow non-gun related 3D printing. The simplest way to be in compliance with this law is to simply prevent all print jobs


AI cannot be made to recognize whether a piece of gcode is intended to produce a piece of plastic that is intended to be used as part of a gun. It would need to simulate the machine that that gcode is made to run on, and then simulate the gcode running on that machine, and then analyze the simulated output of that simulated 3D print.
At best, it can arbitrarily decide to decline print jobs. Which is of course the whole point, because anyone with a printer would need to bypass this filter, and bypassing this filter would be against the law.


They would require printers to scan for anything that could potentially hold or manipulate gun parts.
It’s worth explicitly noting that this effectively bans 3D printing entirely. The whole point of this law is to be able to charge owners of 3D printers with a crime. Real useful if they find out some anti-zionist protestor has a 3d printer in their garage. Can’t get ya on the free speech thing, but they can get you on the owning a non-compliant 3d printer thing.
For the rightoids out there, replace anti-zionist protest with anti-abortion protest. Or any other speech the government doesn’t like. This exists for the sole purpose of punishing innocent people.
Ok I searched it now what
Edit: he seems like a primo dumb shit. 2 minutes into this video from 7 months ago, he’s saying how Mamdani is gonna kowtow to zionists. When is that gonna happen? Because he’s been pretty solidly antizionist this whole time
