PS - can somebody explain to me what the contemporary term "woke" means - in plain English?
Depends on who you're asking.

One group of people use it as a political dog whistle, it means anything they dislike or get told to dislike. This is why none of them can define it, it's not that they necessarily can't, it's just that if they do they expose who they really are. It's a way to express who they really are without saying who they really are.

The actual meaning refers to more or less watching your back because law enforcement has a (very) racial bias and doesn't really care who they pin a crime on.


BTW, this is why the solved murder rate percentage has actually gone down with the advent of DNA, fingerprints and other technology that should help law enforcement find the right person. It was not uncommon for the public and police to just blame a minority and off to jail someone went, more tech made them not just have to work harder to collect actual evidence but also absolved a lot of those falsely accused. When they claim law enforcement has gotten harder, yes it has, they now have actually do their job and try to find the right person. There is still a lot of innocent people in jail though either because they pre-date this tech or simply cannot afford to fight and prove their innocence so they take a plea deal.

And that has What? to do with the Corporation for Public Broadcasting?


Your complaint is about the left vs right arm of a "core"  Bad Person.

It hardly matters which arm the person uses to COMMIT the unconscionable.

Big picture fohats,  big picture,  you're focused on what they want you to focus on, most of which is inconsequential. When, the Full-System has failed.

So you see, Democrats = Republicans.

After decades of trying, the Republicans have finally gotten one of their greatest wishes and cut off funding for public broadcasting in the US.

Non-commercial news, education, and culture simple did not fit into their scenario for what America should be.

Keyboards / Re: Are all HHKBs Topre?

Also a lot of Topre enjoyers seek out vintage aged domes..

They're the same people who buy lifestyle brand speakers.

It would be too offensive to say they're morons, but their intelligence is at approximately the same lvl.

Razer blade 16,

This is the dumbest design ever. Absolutely disgusting.

There're reasons laptop keyboards have had tape under the keys to prevent the fan sucking air through it.

1, DUSTTTT,  now your keys will bind over time, because of dust and oily air ingress. Gamers also eat things like doritos and cheetos.

2,  Imagine pouring some liquid on the keyboard, Now the FAN will suck that cococolo throughout the motherboard. NICE..

Razer is fn stupid,  Seriously, they've gone full re****.

Worst lifestyle brand on the planet, the fact that they and the likes of Klipsch and Marshall (speakers) make any money is proof that Idiocracy is today the norm. Humanity is entirely hopeless.
