  • For thoose who don’t understand I’m a chronic emotional abuser, like I don’t outright threaten to kill myself but everyone around me knows I’m always on the verge to sucide. I’m legitimately a toxic horrible person that holds my friends hostage.

    I know this is gonna sound crazy, but have you considered that you should stop doing that? If you’re deliberately acting suicidal to manipulate people, that’s fucked up, but it does tend to work to some degree. The reason everyone is so fake to you is because you’re fake to them. If you’re going to act like you’re always on the brink of suicide, so will others.

    Why manipulate people to treat you in a way that you don’t want to be treated? That can’t be worth the time and effort.

    You’re the psyop. You created the conditions for the way people act around you. You effectively manipulated the people around you to pity and infantalize you because you act like a wounded animal.


















  • There is no CPU that is ever going to be supported for 10 years for a consumer application. ARM CPUs today are 20x faster than they were 10 years ago, and the ARM/RISC-V chips a decade from now will likely be 10-20x faster than today.

    Regardless, the Kryo 670 CPU in the Fairphone 5 is already 3.5 years old, and it’s not super special, it’s just a semi-custom Snapdragon SoC. Consider that 4G LTE launched 13 years ago in the USA, and in 10 years that Kryo chip in the FP5 will be older than that. Could you handle the performance of your last 3G phone today?


  • Look, fuck the Iranian morality police, but there is a video of the arrest and there is nothing in it that suggests that they “smashed her head into the concrete” during the arrest. From what I saw, she’s pretty much just restrained and forced into the back of a police car. Amnesty International is suggesting that violence was a part of the arrest, but they aren’t providing specific details on what that entails. I don’t doubt that this woman’s human rights are being violated right now, given how Iran usually operates, but it’s incredibly suspicious to find an anonymous Internet rando who claims to know the specifics on that alleged violence that other reputable sources apparently don’t.

    If you have a trustworthy source on this detail, I’d like to see it, otherwise it kinda sounds like you’re sprinkling fake details into a very real story about the oppression of women, which isn’t helpful.
