I hadn't thought about this but having an extra external HDD does solve an immediate problem of having some kind of third backup for my life's work in case of a nightmare scenario.

2026-01-30 05:27:51 UTC

Looking at the Windows 11 problems I still have my suspicions about people being normie retards and not admitting it:
. They clearly don't know how to setup a local account ( Yes it's still possible in Windows 11 )
. They bitch about sign in pestering that can be bypassed
. Terrible at messing with settings and quite tech illiterate ( A lot of them have the default appearance enabled as an example, you can make it behave like Windows 10 and move the icon to the left )
. They're installing debloat software they downloaded from a suspicious source on github ( Likely Indian ) which is probably the main cause of the BSODs but they won't admit this
. Don't have any understanding of BIOS settings despite playing themselves off as 'gamers' and they should understand now that modern multiplayer games are invasive as fuck when it comes to anti-cheat which is why they pester about secure boot settings
. Running on ancient Windows 10 OS systems and fucked themselves because they didn't upgrade not only their OS but their PC early enough before the RAM and SSD shortage like I did
And these people are trying to make it out they're going to hop onto Linux and everything will work fine for them LOL. Half their shit is going to break on Linux too because they'll have no idea what they're doing so they'll probably end up dual booting anyway. Or it will be classic Linux compatibility issues.
Kids today didn't grow out the womb like I did using MS-DOS prompts and 56k connections.

One thing I am pissed off about though is if the prices are going to be as bad as everyone says it is. That means I will effectively have to put my rendering experiments on hold as I won't be able to get a high end rig in the future, that pisses me off.
We'll see what I can come up with for 3D animation stuff with my current build. I don't think it will be that bad if I can nab a high end graphics card, depends on what happens.
One thing I am confident in, AI will go the same way as the NFT hype. I don't think it will last that long. Some people will make their millions off the bubble obviously, but I think youtubers especially who keep hyping it up will have their credibility shot to pieces.
It feels like such an astroturfed bubble to me and I pay attention to my instincts.

Unless you're just looking to make some sprite based RPG shovelware RPG maker is terrible for games development. Pick an engine or use Raylib I guarantee you'll have a much better experience.
I suspect you'll probably find Raylib way more rewarding if you're just doing this for fun it's so much more versatile.

Unless you're going to tell me you're autistic as fuck and have decided to do this anyway why would you hurt yourself trying to develop video games in Javascript? There's a reason people are abandoning that language left and right these days.
I am somebody with a fair bit of experience developing video games so you can ask me about this lol. Also I would not recommend at all necessarily writing something from scratch either, that creates extra headaches and all you're doing is re-inventing the wheel.
Why not use something like Raylib instead?

A big part of the hype around AI as well is a term I'm coining called 'programmer ego' and I've been thinking about it a lot. Too many fingers in the pie and loads of programmers want that street cred of being able to claim that they made 'sentient' AI. When in reality machine learning has nowhere near that capability because ironically even the people writing the code have deluded themselves about it.
It's like when covid happened and the scientists all started getting the red carpet treatment, remember that? They loved it, they got to talk to politicians and get on television for pushing their bullshit.
Exact same thing happening here with the programmers, so many people invested in keeping it going.

I will die on this hill being a programmer, AI is the most overrated shit in existence right now, it's a scam the elites are making money off like with covid. I guarantee you once they're done making money off it the media will suddenly stop posting about it and everyone will forget it happened within a week.

Also regarding trades generally there's a massive labour shortage right now especially in the UK, it's pretty crazy.

I've got to stop myself going on a tangent on this one because the lack of care triggers the fuck out of me. People need to watch out for this kind of crap because it can very easily make a bad situation worse because the dodgy fucks cover up the problem as well and then that leads to more damage down the line.
I know I'm preaching to the choir and everything clearly but this is why you never ever cheap out on stuff like this, just don't fucking do it. Oh boy am I relaxed now that I've got my home insurance properly sorted and I'm no longer with a shitty provider lol.
Fun fact, the support staff were clearly Indians and I wouldn't be surprised the website was maintained by Indians as well because I couldn't log into it properly thanks to them breaking everything.
Noped the fuck out of that situation and low and behold on another insurance company now and it's working completely fine, fucking weirdos.

Memory holing and psyops works with a lot of these people unfortunately and I was going to post it was mainly boomers but let's be real a lot of the younger leftists have all bought into it too.
Yes I've seen the Epstein shit completely plastered all over the guardian and independent, it's what they want the public to focus on. At least now we know exactly why Trump was so keen to pretend it was a non-issue.
The stupid fuck should have taken the hit and brought the democrats down with him because he would have at least gone down as an honest president if anything did happen. He keeps wanting to make the media like him though.

My money is on a 5 - 10 year timeline, the elites are experts in managed decline. They're in a bit of a panic now because they underestimate how pissed off people are about mass migration but they'll swing into action and introduce 'far right lite' as a way of mitigating the anger. People like Nigel Farage are going to conveniently come swooping in and he'll inevitably do 1% of what he promised then throw his arms up and complain it's too difficult of a problem to handle and people just need to accept it.
See for example Keir Starmer as well here in the UK, he's already switched up his rhetoric hard and he's going "Okay, okay, we'll stop using migrant hotels". What the media isn't telling people are how many weird new home builds are going up with the infrastructure and everything.
Been driving past one of these construction sites myself and you know exactly who is going to be put in them. I think though the elites underestimate just how pissed off people are about any of this going to migrants. They think it's just an optics problem and people being bothered about rapists.
I'm even making my own personal financial bets and life choices based around that prediction because the clampdown over here on speech is only going to get worse.

I know you've figured it out yourself but just to post generally, yes, it's all buzzwords they've invented to cover up the larger scam that they're running.
They're also the exact types of people normies complain about but several times worse where they steal your code, then pretend it's 'theirs' to have a degree of credibility and sell their company to google and drive off into the sunset in a Lamborghini.

I think it says a lot that it's mostly redditors and tourists who got into gaming that try and shit on the classics while praising crap like BG3 and Cyberpunk 2077 which are painfully average at best no matter how much they try to sperg at me.
It's funny as well how modern gaming's biggest detractors seem to be people who actually play the games whereas otherwise it's people who spend all their time on social media.
It tells you a lot that even when it comes to emulation I'm looking forward to being able to do that on an airplane these coming weeks than any of the shit being advertised to me for the most part by AAA compnies.

I wasn't going to post anything initially because the drama has nothing to do with me but it keeps popping up. Have you considered Matty this account is a spam account created by an Indian or something and is very likely not a woman at all? If they were the type to make some right wing grifting AI account and claim it's 'content' it's entirely possible.
I think you're being way too patient with this person if it even is a person to begin with. The try hard posting from the account is the only real thing about it and I doubt the instance is going to gain anything from interacting with it in the first place.
Reminds me quite a bit of those accounts that do nothing but spam bible quotes and memes online contributing nothing then only 'interact' with the community and get called on it. Just making a point because I've seen this kind of behaviour before and I think it's highly likely they're just spam accounts.
The reason I think it's some foreign account is because it's usually Indians or South Africans that pretend to be women on dating sites and they often carve themselves a scam niche on sites like this or even on twitter etc.

Even though I'm finding this funny to watch, I don't see a breakup of the Labour Party happening any time soon over this. I think more than likely we're probably going to see Keir Starmer getting replaced by some other figurehead.
At the end of the day he's just an authoritarian WEF plant like all of them. I think that someone like Yvette Cooper or the other woman Rachel whatsherface is probably going to be a replacement for him.
He's pretty much signed his death warrant by going all in on the welfare cuts in the UK and he will definitely make most of the Socialist/Communist voter base turn on him in Labour if he sides with the Conservatives on anything.

I had to take a moment to understand just how low IQ the statement of 'taco cheese' being it's own cheese product was holy fuck.

I love how the media are refusing to say it that Keir Starmer is essentially ramping up government defence spending to make his boomer voter base get erections at the thought of sending young men to die.
Throughout history leaders deliberately beating the war drum is usually the sign of a dying regime. He'll be likely fear mongering about Russia next, I expect a psyop to drop.

If you guys think healthcare is bad in the US the NHS is worse. It's so bad now that people are leaving sometimes pretty recent warning everybody to stay away from certain clinics. Useless receptionists who don't do their jobs properly, possibly underqualified to give any kind of advice ( highly likely ).
A tactic they're clearly relying on is to try and redirect people to the website and apparently to even have a hope in hell of getting an appointment you have to join the phone queue at 8:00am or earlier. Total fucking joke, god forbid you have an actual issue and you genuinely need to see somebody.
Count Dankula has had a number of rants on this and he admitted he basically gave up after having an argument with one of these retards over the phone and just went private lol. Stupid fuckers are going to cause more people to get ill because they can't even handle basic triage. You have to justify yourself to them in order to see anyone and they try their hardest to direct you to their stupid websites, they're definitely working on quotas.
BUT WE DON'T HAVE TO PAY FOR HEALTHCARE RIGHT?! THAT'S A GOOD THING ISN'T IT! OTHERWISE WE'D ALL BE DYING OUT ON THE STREETS! /s
I lied I only had one white pill moment with the local elections, I'm completely fucking black pilled on the UK again because day to day living here is just awful and it keeps getting worse. I have blood tests I should probably do on myself for my allergies for example and to just get a general checkup at my age because that would be a sensible thing to do.
People don't understand how fucking shit it is here, it's not just a question of the big stuff like freedom of speech and the rule of law, it is a completely dysfunctional society.

They may as well be in a parallel universe, it's like when you grow up in a migrant town ( me ) and you go to one of these posh towns where all the virtue signallers live and it's 95% white. Of course they're going to be in favour of that shit when they face zero consequences for what they're promoting.
What's funny is a lot of boomers it seems are really terrified of Trump fucking with the economy they created because they were hoping they'd be dead by the time it would be a problem. Now they're realising this isn't the case and we could face a huge market crash soon they're sperging out hard.
Throwing down some local knowledge I grew up in Bradford and going to somewhere like Harrogate for example it really is like a different universe, no wonder the retards living there think more migration is a good thing.

It's London in particular, I wouldn't be surprised if this is where the bulk of the support from the WEF elites comes from. Then you have their weird relationship with the Saudis among other things. If you pick a politician at random, you'll find they got their because of who they know and what family they were born into. This is the case with the leftist larpers as well, lots of them all went to very good private schools that are the most expensive in the country.
Bear with me because I'm remembering specific, Eton, that's the one I'm remembering. Loads of them all go to this really posh and exclusive school and then you realise, yeah, these people all know each other and all come from the same families. Even if they don't necessarily belong to the families, they'll know somebody who does for example.
It's a big fucking club and we aren't in it. Windsor and Eton specifically is where they breed the next generation of WEF politicians for Britain.

That's how shit the UK is, what reputation? I'm already a social outcast as it is RL and I'm just going to be doubly a pariah if I get high profile enough they dig into my politics. Believe me, if I found some way to print Elon Musk levels of money or came close to that I would absolutely take a dump on peoples' tables and cause as many problems for them in this country as possible.
However, I'm just being realistic and they absolutely set this country up in a way to make sure it's not even possible to become rich. Americans love to do the class warfare larp but honestly that's nothing compared to what they do in the UK because class is very much an issue here and it's real.
Even if you're in a middle class family here the elites want you on the ground and grovelling. Adding to that it's simple maths, from a business perspective I will make more money leaving than staying plus I have the online safety act to worry about now so thanks Keir Starmer. Taxes are on the rise and they're already idiotically high so it feels completely pointless trying to earn real money here.
Also have you seen what's going on in Birmingham? It's going to happen to more cities now, they had a bin strike and now the place is a literal pile of garbage LOL.

2025-04-18 17:08:57 UTC

Yeah, but I've basically accepted if I stay here I'm going to be pissing away the best years of my live trying to survive in some shithole socialist country while the normies slowly start to self-correct after they realise what they've done.
I think it will happen, but it will not happen within my lifetime and if that's the case fuck this country. I also find that the amount of hostility that other British people have to those of us looking to flee the plantation is remarkable. They seriously expect anybody who can earn to stay here giving money to a government that hates us for 10 more years.
I really do think Labour will win again by the way, but it will be a much narrower margin. Believe me I even tried back in the day and I was involved in UKIP in the early days, but I've seen the institutional rot and how the normies look at anybody vaguely right wing in this country.
I was sperging out awhile back about Nigel Farage, he's another example of a WEF plant and he keeps snaking his way back into politics and pissing off everybody who knows anything about him.

Argentina is different, you guys have a majority population like the US that has soundly rejected leftism for the most part. The normies are pretty based, here in the UK though the public has an addiction to those kinds of policies. If you talked to the average normie in the UK you would think you're speaking to a redditor.
I hope I'm fucking wrong like I was wrong with Trump, I hope there's some kind of revolution on the way and Rupert Lowe as well as some kind of based left wing alternative comes along to mop the floor with the WEF aligned parties, however I always err on the side of caution.
The fact I'm considering a gaming laptop for my next PC should tell people everything and you can confirm this with other Brits too, most people under the age of 50 are considering leaving.

I'm an accelerationist when it comes to my country, but I'm having a a major what if that's not enough lately. You have to understand as a foreigner lots of people in the UK believe everything they're told on the magic talking box still.
Millennials and Zoomers are still pretty infested with this mentality, a lot of them will be on places like reddit and will be consuming the fuck out of leftist media. It's almost Soviet era levels of brainwashing and they hate anything that's right wing and think they're fighting against Russia and America now to preserve the liberal order.

I'm operating on a worse case scenario at this point.
. Conscription implemented with much cheering from the middle class white boomers
. Populous as usual too cowardly to do anything about it despite the complaining
. Might get some minor resistance flare ups like when Southport happened and other riots
. Clamp down ensues
. Boomers do what boomers do and tell the younger generations to go die and publicly shame them into it
. This then gives the conscription officers the push they need to go around rounding people up
As for Maher yeah he does this so I'm still quite suspicious of him, he often does 180's when election season rolls in again and he could well go back to orange man is hitler mantras.
With regards to the UK I hope I am badly wrong about this wargame scenario, that would be nice. However I have a deep understanding of how the average lefty thinks in this country because I grew up with them and still have to deal with them RL.

It's funny but disturbing at the same time, my family RL is left wing as fuck, as in they'd make democrats look moderate. They totally buy into the media narrative of hurr durr 'Trump stupid', Marine Le Pen is racist blah blah.
Bill Maher, now I think he's definitely a grifter usually and he just plays both sides in order to sound reasonable. He does actually seem different now, even he was basically reporting on what his experience with Trump was like in private and how measured Trump was. Saying that in public is probably going to get him disowned from the left.
The lefties are all in on their revolutionary larp, I think there's going to be some serious mass hysteria soon in certain liberal occupied countries and I don't want to be around when they get set off because inevitably they're going to expect me to partcipate.

Perhaps, the reason I bring this up is because yet again, it's very noticeable that people who do animation shorts and such who create real value on the market or have their own original content do not need to do any of this. It's always the talking head commentators and reactors who do it.
Yes it's entirely possible they're being strung along by metrics, but bear in mind these are often the same people who laugh at other youtubers who take the bread tube route or try to start drama for clicks.
I'm trying to to be too much of a dick about it because people in glass houses and all that but when the old pattern recognition gets set off it's very hard to ignore, I'm glad other people are seeing it.
One of the things that's very telling as well about youtubers is they've become the very thing they hate when it comes to journalists etc. as well. They regurgitate sources among other things and don't do any proper research for the most part and you look at them and think, yeah you're going to get in trouble one of these days for repeating something that's a complete lie. They're too busy farming on youtube to care.
If I planted a fake story about a viral pile of poop on some news sites, they would spam about it uncritically and think it's hilarious, even if the news story was completely fake.

I guess I'm lucky in a way that I'm not somebody who is terrible with finances but I will never understand people with that 'line must go up' mentality. It's not just AAA studios that do it, you see it with youtubers quite a bit these days as well even the ones that I would have thought would know better.
Anyone with a brain would look at their metrics and go "Okay, I've peaked, maybe I'll try something else". Instead they resort to stuffing their content with even more sponsorships to the point half their videos are just ads or they're clearly trying to milk their audience for every penny and resort to e-begging even though they're clearly already very wealthy from their youtube income.
The only reason I can imagine they're doing this is behind their public persona they are actually greedy as fuck even by the standards of people they criticise. Or they're people who are yet again living beyond their means and not managing their money well.
Stranger things have happened, just having a rant because I've noticed on youtube there's quite a bit of paywall content cropping up. I would not be shocked if some of these guys end up in some form of scandal because youtubers can't seem to help but get corrupt as fuck when they make it big.

I've been pondering about whether or not it would be worth it to pay for a streaming site for anime especially if I go abroad because I've been thinking a lot about a portable setup these days. I find it remarkable that people regard the damn comments page of all things as a 'feature'.
Comments pages on video content are cancer at the best of times and even as an end user I can see why companies want to get rid of them these days. When I want to watch a video I don't want to see a spam of brainless chatter at the bottom of the page and if I wanted a running commentary on everything going on in the video I would just invite family members over to watch but I find that sort of thing incredibly annoying.
That's nothing to say of the bots and general spam that often floods the comments pages generally especially on youtube when the video gets more than 2000 views. Bring back proper fan forums and community sites for that sort of thing where we can take proper measures against bots and people can sperg out as much as they like without ruining the viewing experience on the UI and gatekeep any tourists.

What was pretty funny as well is the guy has been confronted twice by other black guys and they rightly made the point about him and how difficult he's making it for them. Imagine you were a black-american born in the ghetto and are one of the only functional adults there, you finally get out to a civilised society and then this low IQ retard comes along and ruins all the hard work you put into integrating into South Korean culture.
it really is no wonder nothing changes in the ghettos in western countries, because anybody who even attempts to get out is dragged down and called an uncle tom for it among other things.

Johnny Somali, I've been watching his lolcow arc a bit, it's getting funny again. It's more complicated than simply being thrown in jail because the South Korea legal process is a bit length apparently. He keeps making it even longer because he keeps sperging out and got himself arrested again because he was half naked out on the street in broad daylight.
He seems to be thinking that if he racks up more charges or whatever they'll just deport him and he doesn't realise that they're letting him carry on deliberately. He's already allegedly got about 10 years as of the court hearing he was at but there's apparently more now and he doesn't even realise how the system works so he's simply digging a hole for himself.

At it's worse the kid is just being a retard and is clearly trying to provoke a response, the problem is there are other retards who still after all this time haven't caught on to that behaviour so there are times when it is still funny.
What I don't like though is when it's obvious harassment and following people around, you're going to get shot doing that sort of thing. You also definitely don't deliberately start shit with people if they're clearly bothered by it.
This incident is just a boomer being a boomer, what he should have done is simply not given in and asked for his receipt. Though I suspect given how these pranks go the supermarket is clearly doing zero security checks and doesn't even realise he's probably not an employee, or if he is he's going to get fired hard.
Alternatively he could be trying to get fired LOL.

One thing you have to give Unreal Engine 5 is the physics engine really is quite sophisticated compared to it's counterparts. Having a look now at some videos and honestly, if you're going to do anything with destruction and vehicles in it Unreal is your best bet realistically.
I've used Godot and Unity both wouldn't even bother trying to setup something so complex on Unity and with Godot it is a massive pain to setup vehicles. You can definitely do ragdolls in Godot no problem, Vehicles you can do with some work but it's one of those things where you save so much time in Unreal because they clearly spent some proper time on it.
Which makes it all the more confusing I don't see AAA studios abusing the fuck out of it to make fun games but then again they're low IQ woke devs most of them so there's that.

Being serious for a moment that kind of bullshit is probably why motorcycle deaths overall are so high. Even in the motorcycle community they're pretty ruthless about people who die because they all know it's some retard who got a 1000cc sports bike and was racing it through the streets thinking they'd be fine.
I'm looking at getting a scooter and the most I'm going to do is a comfy 125cc automatic lol. I see boomers by the way in my neighbourhood who pull this shit on normal bicycles and they're riding around on the roads with no helmet.
It also doesn't help the motorcycle deaths when you see some absolute twat behaviour from them when they're weaving through moving traffic which is what I suspect is the most likely thing that happened.

Oh I have all sorts of theories but I don't have proper proof yet, but for example we have a massive problem in the UK with out of control spending on 'infrastructure projects' that never go anywhere and keep getting pushed back to ridiculous timeframes like 2030. Miles of motorways that are mysteriously always under construction yet there's nobody working them the majority of the time.
If I got assigned to a UK DOGE team I would have a field day with these people.

This is why everything is making so much sense now, the leftist NPCs sperging about Trump, the NGOs, the activists. They're all government dependents in some form or another and they were working very hard in the background to intimidate everybody into silence who was looking into all of it. Blows my fucking mind, because I imagine that the UK is likely several time worse.
Of course they view Trump as the mortal enemy and think he's a dictator, he's taking away their paycheck and I suspect deep down they know they couldn't cut it in the private sector.
Whenever someone left wing calls you racist there's probably financial fraud involved with them and they don't want you looking too closely.

It all makes sense to me finally why these timing based hack and slash games are so popular, it's the fucking normies. I've never found them difficult at all so when I see people whining about it I never understood but when you realise the types of people who will be making those posts then you go "Ah".
These are the types of people who likely have never even heard of an RTS before or don't know about city builders and are the normiest of normies. The only shooters they know about are Call of Duty and Fortnite so of course they're going to worship these obvious console ports. Normies aren't that much better at video games than games journalists.
It is funny because you see Asmongold for instance always getting ruthlessly mocked for his gameplay when it comes to the game he plays as well.

It's a modern game designed by woke devs that's developed by third world contractors and tested by other third world contractors, that's really the only conclusion that I can draw. Bethesda did this with Fallout 4 and their HD pack ends up adding what 30gb+ to the game?
They could be being massive retards and uploading some kind of weird uncompressed images and that's why it's so big but I haven't seen any leaks of their workflow to indicate any details to me.
They also might be just throwing that recommendation out there to be on the safe side so retards don't try to play it on ancient used laptops which does happen.

Even then there's nothing stopping you with modern engines from creating a perfectly valid stylised look with shaders. That requires skill though, it's making me realise especially with the recent leaks of some of their workflow how dumb these developers are.

This caused two of the other players to ragequit instantly, okay, let's give it a try again and see if it was just them being daft because it happens. I see this twat run straight into the cone of vision that's clearly shown on your minimap and then I'm done myself even though I'm the host.

He's not fucking joking either, in the UK right wingers can't have one party to their name before it gets instantly infiltrated or taken over by centre-left types who are basically leftists overall. They're just ever so slightly nudged to the right to be more palatable to the normies.
Always bear in mind, one of the reasons many of us were not on board with Nigel Farage was because of him always doing what leftist pressure groups like hope not hate were saying.
I would not be surprised if despite what he says Sargon finally leaves for America, the government is going to make it impossible for right leaning people to live here. I also think that's part of why Nigel Farage has been making the moves that he has so he can protect himself while he throws his supporters under the bus for being extremists.

I'm remaining deeply cynical but I do hope that this rumoured Oblivion remake is real and it doesn't turn out to be shit. It's probably either going to turn out to be the most amazing release I've seen for decades or it will be another typical AAA attempt of pawning off a brand to a third world developer that can barely position collision boxes properly.
Proper support for modern systems? Yes, much better UI and combat? Please fucking yes, that was one of the major gripes with Oblivion.

One thing that's becoming quite blatant about these youtuber circles is they are not only extremely corrupt on the level of Hollywood actors they are also incredibly shit at finances. It's funny when they do their e-begging and inevitably get doxxed over doing something like illegal drugs or some kind of family issues and then it all makes sense why they behave the way they do. They're milking the fuck out of their fanbases in order to feed their lifestyle and they're not doing anything about production quality or trying out different content.
Digging into the finances of youtubers lately has been more interesting than a lot of their content and I've grown to kind of despise commentators that e-beg. I remember learning about Lauren Chen and even after the whole Tenet scandal there were still people trying to simp for her and it's a case of dude she has six figures in her bank account and she was trying to play the victim, no wonder she eventually dropped off the face of the planet.
Lauren Southern seems to be the same way but perhaps she's sniffing around for extra cash so she can by some sort of McMansion or plot of land I don't know, very weird.
I could go into a lot of detail about all these guys thanks to kiwifarms because they do good work and I find it more interesting as well that they like to circle the wagons a lot when it comes to any form of criticism. One thing that's really noticeable about youtubers, the ones who actually make original content and aren't just reading off news articles weekly going "Mm, yeah, mm, uhuh" don't pull any of this shit.
Woke games developers and government employees also seem to have massive drug and financial problems quite often.

Just to give foreigners an idea of what kind of hellscape Britain is now:
Deep cuts and taxes across the board on the most vulnerable even by 'right wing' standards.
. NHS England has been demolished taking out 10,000 NHS workers
. VAT increase on private schools which is of course a deliberate attack on parents trying to get their kids into a safe place for their education
. Massive benefits cuts for people on mental disability among other things
. Ukraine warhawk behaviour, they seem absolutely determined to try and kick shit off over there, they know they don't have the numbers so conscription still a distinct possibility
. Seeing rumblings now about the 'online safety act' which I need to look up, this kind of shit is what is making me consider Japan or America as an option because there's no way I'm setting up a business here
. MPs can punch people in the streets and get little to no jail time for it
. Mass migration still being pursued to a suicidal degree
All this and people are still going to vote Labour or Conservative.

No and that's the point, where do you think they get their training models from? :D there's a reason for example that reddit is being sanitised like crazy right now. The corpos want various social media sites clean so that all these AI platforms can train off them and copy what's being posted.
You do have models that can be technically downloaded offline but they're a ridiculous file size and they'll run out of data to train off because they're not connected so it will just spew off gibberish eventually.

Oh great, new unrest popped off in Serbia, now we have to deal with the insufferable 'youtube commentators' all pretending they're experts on Serbia just like with when the Ukraine war first started.
I READ WIKIPEDIA ARTICLE SO DERRR SUBJECT MATTER EXPERT
It's a classic example actually now I think about it of how if your content relies on news cycles you're basically fucked because if it's something you know nothing about you've either got to put a video up and make yourself look like a retard or you don't make money for potentially a week or two depending on how long whatever geo-political event takes place. Most youtubers these days unfortunately choose the latter and chase the ad money rather than maintain any credibility.

I think I read through British normie comments pages at times to remind myself that no this country is not going to be magically fixing itself within 4 years once the election starts. It's going to be a continual managed decline for about 10+ years or maybe a bit more before it finally collapses.
It's all propped up by larping retards who think they're going to save the country when in reality all they're doing is paying taxpayer money into a system that hates them.
There is such a deep rot here that even with a government that is exactly how most British people want it you would be in a continual fight with a portion of the country that is full on Socialist. America's DOGE would look like a picnic by comparison with all the unhinged government employees losing it if we ever had a party that had the balls to deal with all our problems.

I'm not even going to get one even though I could probably benefit just having a short range vehicle like most guys my age so I can go to and from the shops fast if I don't have use of the car. They're going to clamp down on this, it's way too convenient and useful.
I don't see wheelchairs and mobility scooters that much, must be dependent on the area and how many boomers there are. Although I do see sometimes the odd boomer on a standard bicycle that looks like he's got an absolute death wish and isn't even wearing a helmet.
Probably going to still stick with my motorcycle idea because the insurance will at least definitely be cheaper and then I'll be completely legal for anything. It will also be quite a bit more future proof than e-bikes I suspect and I don't have to deal with the battery nonsense.

2025-03-13 09:53:17 UTC

Random fact about the UK which I was not aware of, apparently e-bikes are becoming more of a thing here and I have noticed them about in some areas where I've been driving. Vehicle insurance costs a ridiculous amount even for somebody my age and I'm 34 now. It's an absolute nightmare for anybody younger and boomers don't fucking care because they're typical selfish pricks.
Apparently you don't need insurance or even a license to use one despite it clearly being a 'vehicle' because you don't need to pedal but it's one of these retarded ways that something has become a work around in our system. They've got some specific rules about not using them on pavements but that's about it.
These shit heads in charge of the country are definitely going to clamp down on e-bikes when the inevitable accident statistics start coming in. They'll probably make you get insurance and it will be £500+ a year.
Arghhhhh doomposting.
