alyson “end the BBC” greaves

When i say the Atlantic deserves neither your money nor your respect, i also mean their newsletters, their crosswords, and all their podcasts

the same issue launching their anti-trans hate as a cover article deprioritized ones about poor pandemic readiness and harms of anti-black discrimination

seeing the article Talia’s referring to after spending YEARS delaying my transition to do femboy shit bc it was easier irl and more marketable wrt sexwork is going to give me an aneurysm

Fantastic.

UK loses measles elimination status amid sustained assault on public health Increasing vaccine coverage is the key to eliminating measles, but this goal is being actively undermined by the Starmer government’s continued assault on public spending and the National Health Service.

Yeah it’s just a feature sticker for the most expensive GPUs you can buy. And even the games that implement it will have had the base lighting engine, the one that the PS5 and the 3060 use, in mind when designing all their assets.

It’s pointless.

one last thing about the military being filled with poor people who just HAVE TO KILL BROWN PEOPLE TO PUT FOOD ON THE TABLE

these fucking libs do not have half as much sympathy for women who go into survival sex work or those who suffer from addiction. all their sympathy is spent i guess

a trans friend of mine from kansas moved to amsterdam and got a letter over there telling her that her ks license is invalid and she made a post about the parallels to the nazis and immediately she was hounded by cis ppl yelling at her for falsely framing herself as a victim of fascist persecution

we have to be meaner to these people it's all we got. billionaires sitting there crying bc ppl hate them when they could just end world hunger

perfect representation of the vicious asininity of our persecution and the banal mechanisms of its implementation: these regular-ass people, the staff at the dmv, dutifully inflicting whatever absurd degradation they're told, no matter how blatantly, cruelly pointless. would you do that? will you?

This is the same kind of flimsy argument as "patriarchy harms men too" like, sure, but we shouldn't let such a broad statement exist without acknowledging the primary targets and primary harm being done. The point of "the poor little imperial soldier is being exploited" is to distract us.

without a denoiser running you can see how sparse the rays are actually, it’s kind of interesting

I assume eventually someone will write a script that points the game at AMD’s denoiser or their new RR thing and that will be fine but it won’t change how the game just gives up on PT after a while

This really brings to light how people are much more comfortable with those who do violence on behalf of the state abroad than with those who do it at home.

Which really raises the question why would you value people’s lives less just because they live far away.

no pictures of the iso layout keys 🪦

evil but stupid

I really do get the feeling they put PT in for the first area only, just so nvidia could do one of their RTX ON videos

runs acceptably at 4K, though I suspect I’d want to throw on some framegen (hiss) if I were going to play it like this

but in my actual playthrough I’m past the point in the game where the path tracing just stops, so there’d be no point

oh hey lol you can get the resi requiem nvidia-exclusive path tracing working on AMD

fuck, I’m sorry, I can’t compete with this

those are so nice!

unfortunately I’m limited by the UK layout in what keycap sets I can buy lol

also that’s purty and I should get new keycaps

yeah, air75 v3 with the blush switches, the gentlest ones they do, because my hands are shitmittens

This IPSO adjudication against the Telegraph is quite something

Confirms their story titled: ‘We earn £345k, but soaring private school fees mean we can’t go on five holidays’ was completely fabricated, with the family involved non-existent and stock pictures used

www.ipso.co.uk/rulings/0210...

"In a UK survey of over 4,000 trans people, TransActual found that 99% say media coverage has harmed their mental health, 99% have heard politicians express transphobic views, and many have been refused non-transition healthcare simply for being trans."

nah we decided we needed to bloody our hands and souls again

but,

What about the poor people who are the ones getting bombed. I will accept the whinging about the poor American recruits if you give every third-worlder a button that gives them 50k dollars when pressed while killing a random American

If you want to make the philosophical argument that the soldier pulling the trigger for imperialist masters and the ones he aims his gun at are both victims of a violent system, you better actually acknowledge who is harmed first and who is harmed more in that exchange or you're just doing apologia.

With stock photos you can at least click through to check if other photos of the same model exist. If they do, it’s probably real.

This is such a fucking mess.

screenshot of a comment on bbc good food david harris, 10th may 2019, five stars: This was really yummy and simple. Instead of pork I used lamb, and in place of the onions I used a few leeks. My kids don't like paprika so I used oven chips instead, and as I'm watching my weight I substituted the crème fraîche with low fat sausages.
