Comment not about privacy (Score 1) 226

The marks that this scam is aimed at aren't concerned about privacy as such. They'll eagerly hand over their private info to Snarler, GettrByThePussy, mOAN, NewSmax, and even GRU... just so long as King Obummer II and Narc Cuckerberg, can't censor their memes about lynching Killary.

Why would he buy something near the peak of its bubble?

Besides, it is only going up like it is because people expect the US dollar to crash as America begins its second civil war. They wouldn't be digital goldbugs if they didn't entertain fantasies of collapse.

What these numbnuts are too dumb to understand is that they can't actually use their bitcoin without a functioning Internet, and not only does the president, legitimate or orangewise, have the "kill switch" at their disposal, and plenty of "national security" rationalization to use it, the infrastructure itself will be damaged by the partisan fighters seeking to deny any communication advantage to their enemies. Their stupid fantasy is unavoidably self-defeating.

Comment What about skirt guy in TNG? (Score 3, Interesting) 466

I thought the whole point was that everyone was "non-binary" in the future because gender roles are stupid and obsolete.

Of course the "non-binary" chick looks like a woman cross-playing Wesley Crusher. Which is to say, she looks exactly like teenage Wil Wheaton wearing more than the usual makeup.

The degree to which women wore makeup on Star Trek was particularly absurd. Either everyone would be doing it, or no one would, and it would die out like other absurdities, like wearing ties.

If the show were internally consistent, there would be no trans people, because their technology would be such that no one would be identifiable as trans without a genetic scan, and even that would be insufficient if they had their DNA rewritten. You might as well cast anyone and call them trans, otherwise it seems to be making the argument that trying to look like the opposite sex but failing is the point of being trans.

And I would love to see the outrage from both the SJWs and the alt-righters if the show were to feature people changing sex for the hell of it, and not to align to a gender identity, like in John Varley stories. That would be too woke for the woke.

Gruber is a prissy fanboy who is conveying "alternative facts". The Enter key is labeled "Enter", and the Backspace key is labeled "Backspace". Nobody cares about the weird names for things in his delusional fairy land.
