- Reposted by DrasticI need people who were wrong about everything to actually look back and recognize that there was a reason they were wrong and maybe they need to update their understanding of the world. Otherwise they don't really think they were wrong.

- Reposted by DrasticJust so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.
- Reposted by Drasticmy favorite thing about the benoit blanc movies is that they aren't really about benoit blanc. he is not grappling with demons from his past. we are not getting flashbacks to the husband whose murder he never solved. he just shows up and does his job like mary poppins for homicides

- Reposted by Drastici strongly, strongly believe that good writing is downstream of clear thinking and a strong understanding of the subject matter at hand. without fail, tortured writing comes from writers who don’t know and can’t think clearly about anything.

- Fired up the Mad Max videogame and there's a very early bit where there's turning sideways to squeeze through a narrow gap and obviously I think "oh! Triple A!" sloooow squeeze but instead he just slips through with scarcely a pause. At some point after 2015 we have lost this technology.
