Why I didn’t say hot tub, I’ll never know 😞

I don’t know how to break it to the RussiaGaters that it was coming from inside the house this whole time. Previously.

Also, the requisite Parenti quote.

Conform or be cast out

so they won’t read it.

🤣 I swear to dog: 0.6% of the time, it works every time.

Yes, and it has nothing to do with stealing your product ideas. It’s about targeting ads to you.

Also if you so much as talked about this with anyone near a good damned smartphone, or googled your idea in anyway whatsoever, if it’s a good idea, it’s already gone.

Okay now that’s just silly. Your phone isn’t listening to you, and Google is only interested in (1) optimizing ads and (2) selling your data to others so they can optimize ads.

For some reason, commenters are focusing on patenting your product. But products as a whole are very seldom patentable. More often, one or more features of a product may be patentable, but there’s a fair chance that your product won’t have any patentable features, either. Since you haven’t told us anything at all about your product (a toaster? a time machine?), we couldn’t begin to guess if it’s patentable. In fact, for all we know, your product might violate others’ existing patents.

This video isn’t going to convince anyone who isn’t already convinced, nor is your text. The 36 second video didn’t really expose anything, it basically just poses questions. And it doesn’t directly address the Russian invasion of Ukraine (which I have).

You are a brand new user account who’s coming on rather… uh strong. I predict that you’ll catch bans rather quickly.

I see.

• Almost all Lemmy instances are sympathetic to safeguarding Mother Earth.
• Almost all are sympathetic to liberalism in the global classical sense, with the exception of hexbearnet, lemmygradml, lemmydbzer0com, because they are socialist/anti-capitalist instances. I’d say that lemmyml tolerates liberalism, but the admins are socialists, so our tolerance has its limits. Almost no instances are far-right, and many instances don’t federate with them.
• “Red pill” might almost anything, so you’d have to be more specific.
• Aside from niche instances that cater to certain Global South countries/regions, hexbearnet, lemmygradml, and lemmyml are sympathetic towards the Global South.
• Some conspiracies are very much real, so it depends on which conspiracies you mean.

You said you’re looking for a hosting provider, and hosting is in the category of Providing Internet Services.

ISPs generally just want your money and don’t give a shit what you believe.

I had to enable them: about:config -> browser.tabs.groups.enabled -> true

Nihilism is a philosophy for late-stage capitalism, imperialism, and fascism.

The New Irrationalism

Nietzsche died in 1900. The date was significant, since in Lukács’s view, Nietzsche was the “founder of irrationalism in the imperialist period,” which was then only commencing. The imperialist or monopoly stage of capitalism in Marxist theory began in the last quarter of the nineteenth century, but, in terms of Nietzsche’s life and work, only “the first shoots and buds of what was to come” in that respect were visible. Nietzsche’s genius was instinctively to capture a sense of what was to come and to develop the method of irrationalism for the new age of empire as a “mythicizing form” of analysis, made more obscure by the frequent use of aphorisms. It is this that accounts for the mesmerizing nature of Nietzsche’s literary style, which was at the same time a means of perfecting indirect apologetics. Everything in Nietzsche is presented in a haze so that, while the whole political-social thrust of his philosophy is not in doubt, it also gives rise to endless discussions arising from its mythic character, inviting imitators, and establishing the dominant form in which philosophical irrationalism is pursued to this day.

In Nietzsche’s notion of “eternal recurrence,” “noble” spirits and the master race would again experience the triumph of the will in the cyclical swings of history. Yet, eternal recurrence, meant a lack of overall progress, so that the cumulative result was “Nothingness (the ‘meaninglessness’) for ever more!” Although Nietzsche wished to supersede nihilism through the Overman as the personification of the will-to-power, it was to nihilism that everything always eternally returned, as genuine forward progress was foreclosed.

Heidegger frequently lauded Mussolini and Hitler, presenting Nietzsche as a forerunner of both fascist leaders. In Heidegger’s book on Friedrich Schelling, a long sentence from the original lecture was omitted in the 1971 edition but was later reinserted at Heidegger’s own request. It said: “As is well known, both of the two men in Europe who have, in the political-national fashioning of their respective Volks, inaugurated countermovements [Gegenbewegungen] to nihilism, namely Mussolini and Hitler, were in turn, each in their own way, essentially determined by Nietzsche; still this was so without Nietzsche’s authentic metaphysical domain having come into its own.” Nietzsche, Heidegger explained in his lectures, had shown that “democracy” led to a “degenerate form of nihilism” and thus demanded a more authentic Volk movement. In a course on logic in 1934, Heidegger declared that “Negroes are men but they have no history.… Nature has no history.… When an airplane’s propeller turns, then nothing actually ‘occurs.’ Conversely, when the same airplane takes Hitler to Mussolini, then history occurs.” “The sham culture” of Western civilization, he explained, will be superseded only by the “spiritual world” of the Volk based on “the deepest preservation of the forces of the soil and blood.”

What logic do you imagine OP is basing his opinion on that would bring you to this conclusion?

Graves are for the living. I’d prefer not to have one, but I’m not going to make demands of the living over it. After all, it’s their funeral.

Yup, and this isn’t the exception to the rule. It’s the rule, as I try to explain: https://lemmy.ml/comment/12094932
