honestly unless you're playing competitive FPS titles then a locked 60fps is good enough. get back to me when the 100ms latency on audio is dropped to 0-2ms.

playstation is just as much of a scam. PC gaming with an OS and form-factor of your choice is the way.
YOURE HIRED AND FIRED AND ALL YOUR IDEAS STOLEN
fingers fucking crossed that they read this post and pile these suggestions into the next product.
backlight and waterproof would be all it takes to sell me on the next ebook reader.
more extensive eink panel production around the world would help.
Honestly unless an eBook reader supports loading files directly or through Calibre I am SIMPLY NOT INTERESTED.

"I was recently contacted by a physicist who was very upset that I judge their research to be 100% bullshit."
"He demanded that I remove my video and when I politely declined, complained about me to some people he must have thought were my supervisors in a very deliberate attempt to exert pressure on me.”
“A lot of research in the foundations of physics is now pseudocience. It hasn’t followed the scientific method for decades.”
It seems unlikely that the only reason that the Munich Center parted ways with Hossenfelder is bad language in her posts. Is she uncomfortably correct?
was super excited only to be let down again
best to ignore these things. if folks REALLY want your attention, they'll get it.
that's what i'm saying it's fucking retarded but downvoted as flamebait apparently.
this is actually a retarded development, hopefully shit gets sorted but slandering the folks you just kicked of the project they were running as "untrustworthy" IS SUPER RETARDED
yeah its all intentionally polarized to divide and conquer the masses so they never have a chance of coming together in unified opposition to our collective oppression.
everyone in power is a cunt, and it doesn't matter what type of cunt they are nor who may or may not agree with various aspects of their stated policies.
says the linguistic fascist demanding i conform my speech to their expectations. how about kindly go fuck yourself please
1 Linguistic Fascism
Definition: The attempt to strictly regulate or police language itself - what words can be used, how meanings are framed, and what is considered “permissible” speech.
Mechanisms:
Imposing official vocabularies or banning certain terms.
Recasting old words with new ideological meanings.
Suppressing dialects, minority languages, or “unapproved” ways of speaking.
Goal: To shape how people think by narrowing the range of expression (“language policing --> thought policing”).
Historical/Modern Examples:
Fascist Italy’s suppression of regional dialects in favor of standardized Italian.
Totalitarian regimes enforcing euphemisms (e.g., “liquidation” instead of “execution”).
Contemporary debates about compelled terminology in identity politics.
2 Cultural Fascism
Definition: Control over cultural expression (art, music, literature, film, rituals, clothing) to enforce conformity with a prescribed national or ideological identity.
Mechanisms:
State censorship of art, music, film.
Enforced uniformity in aesthetics (e.g., Nazi “degenerate art” campaigns).
Punishment of cultural deviation - banning folk traditions, “unapproved” entertainment, or foreign influence.
Goal: To construct a single, “pure” cultural identity aligned with state ideology.
Historical/Modern Examples:
Nazi Germany’s destruction of avant-garde and Jewish art.
Soviet socialist realism imposed as the only acceptable style.
The Taliban’s destruction of music, dance, and pre-Islamic monuments.
3 Ideological Fascism
Definition: The monopolization of worldviews — the enforcement of a singular ideology as unquestionable truth.
Mechanisms:
Indoctrination through education, media, religion, or propaganda.
Outlawing competing ideologies, philosophies, or frameworks of meaning.
Cultivation of sacred dogmas where dissent is punished as heresy or treason.
Goal: Total control over belief and interpretation - to eliminate pluralism of ideas.
Historical/Modern Examples:
Fascism and Communism both outlawed rival ideologies.
Religious theocracies that equate dissent with blasphemy.
Modern “big tent” movements where ideological deviation is branded as betrayal.
4 Political Fascism
Definition: The most “classic” sense of fascism - a centralized, authoritarian state enforcing conformity through direct political power.
Mechanisms:
Dictatorial leadership.
Elimination of free elections, checks and balances, or independent judiciary.
Suppression of opposition parties, dissent, and civil liberties.
Goal: To monopolize political authority and mobilize society under a single leader, party, or ruling class.
Historical/Modern Examples:
Mussolini’s Italy, Hitler’s Germany, Franco’s Spain.
Contemporary authoritarian states using fascist-like tools (paramilitary groups, one-party dominance, cult of leadership).
5 Key Distinctions
Linguistic fascism targets the words you use.
Cultural fascism targets the art, practices, and traditions you express.
Ideological fascism targets the ideas you think and believe.
Political fascism targets the structure of power and governance itself.
Each can exist independently, but they often reinforce one another. For example, political fascism typically uses cultural fascism (propaganda art), linguistic fascism (approved speech), and ideological fascism (state dogma) to sustain itself. But you can also see these “fascisms” without a literal fascist state - “linguistic fascism” can arise socially through peer pressure or institutional enforcement.
that's what i read the first time.
