  • Trump and the Russians are to blame, not Hillary.

    Did trump and the Republicans prevent her from campaigning in swing states and heavily campaigning in democratic strongholds?

    Hillary absolutely deserves blame for how her candidacy fucked the dog so hard she lost to Donald trump. She doesn’t deserve all the blame for her loss by any stretch, but she does not need to be sanctified as a martyr of some kind.

    Accelerationism is a position that is literally only possible to hold from a position of privilege.

    And boy do they get butthurt when you tell them that they’re privileged.

    I got one person really indignant with me when I called them privileged because they were pushing accelerationist bullshit about Palestinians being genocides because they didn’t have to deal with the results of their rhetoric.












  • Why would you seek somebody’s advice if you’re not willing to take it?

    People are dumb as hell. Between working retail and working first line IT support, I cannot tell you how many times I’ve had someone ask me a question and then immediately disregard the advice. I got to just expect idiocy when I was asked a technical question at work.

    Thankfully I’m in a much better gig where people value my opinion.

    It has nothing to do with modern hardware since you’re still limited by the read speed of your disks. Given we’re talking about spinning rust, that will take tens of minutes to complete a couple hundred gig, and even more so if you’re transferring tons of small files.

    I could easily see it taking over an hour for a 200+gb install. Even going at the theoretical max, you’re looking at 20min just in data. Tacking on added latency from opening and closing many small files and any kind of fragmentation/disk location, that’s going to add significant time to the transfer.
