@icedquinn You should check them out. He basically fixes various equipment (alot of radio and test equipment) and steps you through his process of diagnosing and ultimately fixing it in some detail.

@johnabs

The shade in this thread (both directions) is absolutely glorious... please continue.

@icedquinn @zpartacoos

Who here is a fan of Mr. Carlsons Lab (youtube)? I decided to donate to him via patreon. I think he is probably one of the only youtubers who help understanding real world EE challenges and learning from that.

@Kacho This assumes he is having one of his good days and he remembers where he is or that he is president :)

@johnabs

You are right we arent insulated... thats the whole point. The less insulated you are from other cultures the less xenophobic you will be. So you are generally saying "the less xenophobic we are (the less insulation) the less xenophobic we will be".. it becomes circular at that point.

@zpartacoos

@icedquinn

reasonable... like I said pre-civilization (which is what your civilization represented) it is a good trait for survival. Post civilization not so much but tends to stick around from our pre-civilization days.

@johnabs @zpartacoos

@icedquinn

Maybe if you go back to times before society sure... not so much in the modern era.

@johnabs @zpartacoos

@johnabs

Yes but those values are generally relative tot he uniformity of the group.

Groups that are highly uniform all sharing the same culture and values tend towards greater xenophobia due to lack of exposure to other cultures. So by their very nature their values will tend more towards xenophobia than mixed groups.

@johnabs

I would disagree. Shared values and cultures tend to lead to fewer people being abused, but those people are abused to a much greater extent. The larger the mob the more violent they tend to get. Lots of little mobs may result in more turmoil as they all come up against each other but having smaller numbers means the damage is much less for any one incident.

@zpartacoos

@VictorVenema And to be clear no it has nothing to do with promoting my server.

As I already made quite clear my concern revolves around the fact that you basically are using it as a point of attack that our server put out LGBT communities safety ahead of everything else. You using that as ammunition against us, is as i said dangerous to said community. I will not take that stance.

So yes lets end this conversation, but I also want it to be clear what I was addressing, and they are your opinions, not your decisions that you derive from those opinions.

@VictorVenema As I said, all good. Having this conversation in the public eye so others know your "reasoning" is good enough. Thanks for taking the time to respond.

@VictorVenema I do think your actions make for a bad impression of you yes, that much is clear.

I also stated your actions do appear bigoted, that much is clear.

But I also explicitly stated that while appearing bigoted those actions were not.

So to accuse me of "admitting to calling you a bigot" is absolutely false, I stated the exact opposite. In my own words from that post:

"no I dont think you are a bigot, just acting in a way harmful to minorities unintentionally."

@js290

Science is a process, not a person or an idea. To say something is "scientific" is to say "we followed certain procedures to formulate this idea or assertion".

So the analogy of a tough guy would not be that tough guys say they are tough, but rather if tough guys talk about going to the gym or lifting... and yes, tough guys usually never shut up about lifting, crossfit, or the gym.

@VictorVenema @admin

@js290

Sounds like the system he proposes would explicitly be decentralized and therefore unable to have a dictator run it, even an elected one.

Though im fuzzy on the details.

@zpartacoos

@realcaseyrollins

I think its clear at this point he doesnt care about the reality. He is just going to manipulate things into fitting his dogma. Thats fine, not much you or I or anyone can do to change the mind of someone behaving this way. You just need to let them do their thing. I think its more than obvious to anyone reading this thread (which thankfully is now public record) what his motives and priorities are.
