Thanks for being a voice of sanity. While I don’t care for defending celebrities on the internet, I also don’t care for purity testing, and since I have been a booster of his work and ideas on occasion, wanted to do a bit of due diligence and had largely come to the same “smoke but no actual fire” conclusion

On that last point, I was really curious so I suited up and checked it out: https://kiwifarms.st/search/39060321/?t=post&c[content]=post&c[users]=larossmann&o=date

He has only posted on exactly one thread, funnily enough about him (but not started by him) and all of the comments I read have been talking about various bits of content, but I did not see anything that I would consider out-of-character or promoting hate in my opinion.

Is this a good look? Not great for sure, since Kiwi Farms is definitely an edgelord paradise. But oddly enough, its at least consistent with his ethos, since he always talks about being bipartisan.

Ooof, the other answers here make me think the answer is too many!

I have 6 consumer TVs ranging from 14" to 29", including one 28" 16:9 SD Trintron, which is a novelty for OG xbox… And 10 computer monitors from 15" to 21" (Sony G500, pride of my collection)

Majority were either free or under $10 usd, the only one I really paid through the nose for was the Sony monitor at ~$120 usd… and before the prices went mad for TVs at least in the last couple of years

However, people still sleep on PC CRT monitors, I have paid less for all of the above than some people pay for a PVM/BVM, and while none of the ones I have can natively do 240p, they can make a really good, clean emulation setup with a bit of scaling trickery and VGA conversion. Hell, one can take component or RGB directly via BNC if you can feed it a 31khz signal

Counterpoint: HR for any company of a certain size is probably using AI or some sort of automated system to process job applications, so all doing them manually accomplishes is making one of you tired…

Unless this is a single-shingle Mom & Pop store and you are literally handing a paper application directly to the owner, save yourself the armwork and give them all the consideration they give you.

Don’t get me wrong, the system is broken, HR is a disease, and AI is a grift.

My only regret is that I have only one upvote to give this post.

Just because I have the skills to setup a cluster of mini-pcs doesn’t mean I want to spend my one-precious-fucking-spare-hour a day making the thing work.

Well if you make me actually explain it, I’m going to sound like an asshole

Too late muchacho… you’re already giving real big superiority vibes here
