    Apparently once you get under like 25ish tech illiteracy starts to go up again because those kids grew up in an era where everything is very straightforward and just works more or less fine.

    This is what I am given to understand by my teacher friends.

    Apparently Nick saying that could open him up to an Obstruction of Justice charge? Also a month ago that dude got $250,000 in bitcoin ago from a mysterious French computer programmer who then committed suicide. So... there's that.

    Also also: I don't think he committed any crimes, but man I'm excited to find out if Alex Jones can get through an FBI interview without lying.

    Yeah we've gotten to the point where a lot young people don't know how to pirate shit because they barely know how to move files around if at all or what a file extension is.

    IME I would put it a little closer to 30 than 25, but yeah, 25ish sounds like the right neighborhood.

    Lots of public schools in the US completely dropped any kind of class that would build that tech literacy because "young people just know." But they don't. I see high school kids NOW trying to take programming classes or other computer stuff and they have to start from square one. The very few that can even touch type struggle to hit 30 wpm. Computers and technology are becoming magic black boxes again and that's not a good thing.

    Know it's tempting to say that BLM was good at security but it's not like plenty of people weren't getting doxxed as a result of the protests. They just hadn't invaded the US Capitol and so don't have as much attention on them.

    My neice and nephew had legitimate problems with buttons on consoles when they were younger because they had literally never used anything but touch tablets.
    Theyre better now but it was weird to realize Id been trained to use these things and navigate 2D and 3D space using a controller and they had no idea until like 2 years ago.

    I have a podcast now. It's about video games and anime!Find it here.

    Shit that's right. I forgot, the non OG-PS3 lost the "Emotion Engine" chip, so lost PS2 ability, not PSX.

    Dumile was refused reentry to the United States in late 2010 after completing a European tour.[102] Although he had lived in the country for most of his life, he never became a naturalized citizen.[60][103] He had previously avoided leaving the United States—it had only been his second international tour—but had acquired a British passport prior to the tour. He had believed he would be able to secure reentry based on his longterm residency and family connections.[102] The denial of reentry forced Dumile apart from his wife and three children, and for nearly two years he saw them only via video calls or during their brief visits to the United Kingdom. He was reunited with his family when they moved to London in 2012.[10] The same year, Dumile said he was "done with the United States".[102]
    Looks like he pulled a Kuribo's Shoe. Thats hardly the president's (or vice president's) fault.

    This is obviously some cya by administration officials, but the implication here is that Trump knew he lost, and the plan from the start was to lie and bully his way into winning. This is something I'm guessing people will have to start testifying about at some point.

    That makes a lot of sense, it's one of the ways the abuse of executive powers could keep him in office and also probably the one that took least effort.

    The Stop The Steal bullshit also took off right as people started reporting that there might be a "red mirage", which points to the folks doing grassroots work for Republicans basically deciding oh shit we might have a chance to convince people that's just us winning.

    I mean which is predictable, but I'd like to nail down how much this is definitively people choosing to lie for gain rather than being duped/confused/whatever.

    No, the president and VP are exactly who should be blamed for the oppressive immigration policies that forced MF DOOM to spend years separated from his family.

    He absolutely thinks he has never done anything wrong. The vast majority of his life he has been surrounded by "yesmen" and he has never experienced failure that he knows of.

    He seems to have the ability to imagine something and convince himself that it is true almost instantly.
