If he is mentally ill, the majority of the US might be as well and they are tired of the system that makes them ill.

That’s what makes it sooo good, they think they just got the keys to the kingdom but forgot the all the residents can bite back at any time.

Most people don’t hate CEOs.

Uhhh, that actually might not be true.

If you were to do a poll in the US I think you can crack 51%, especially if you phrase it by mentioning that they have a fiduciary responsibility to maximize profit regardless of morality.

Edit: just had a thought. Given how much more money they make than the average worker, and that the average worker puts their health at risk by sitting at a desk so much, this might actually make sense in terms of risk/reward structure.

If the ultra wealthy make more than 1000 than me, shouldn’t they take 1000 times more risk of dying (I’m not supporting violence).

Yes, otherwise it wouldn’t fit properly and the asymmetry would bug me.

I’ve also worked in office spaces with multiple screens, it’s always put symmetrically in my experience. So you always have to have your head tilted.

Imo if you put it asymmetrically, as in one main screen in the centre, then that’s pretty much what I’m talking about, I just want a UW in the centre cause it’s a better experience.

In this post’s picture, I do like that a screen is in the centre but it’s too small imo, rather have a bigger one.

On my desk at work I have an ultra wide, a single external laptop screen to my right and a TV on the far wall on my left.

I have a TV on the side (rarely use it) and my laptop below the screen.

I do agree, it’s great having an on the side screen. My point was more about having one big main screen instead of few main screens. I used to have two identical screens side by side. I ended up just looking right most of the time so I thought one big screen was the answer.

As someone who used to listen to his podcasts and actually enjoyed them I got to say.

I never agreed with everything he said, but I enjoyed how he presented the ideas and talked about them (he was a lecturer after all)

But then he went off the deep end, imo it happened to Chappell too. I’m guessing it’s because he got so much criticism from a very loud minority that he basically doubled down on the opposite as much as he could.

At that time, I stopped enjoying his stuff, why? Cause it was less about, let’s talk about this topic and explore a unique (and very possibly wrong) perspective; to more like, they are all against me and the world is insane and only people who agree with me are sane.

I don’t think it’s out of malice, I think it’s because of polarization but imo if he was smart enough he would know better.

I haven’t read the article yet but before I do, my guess is:

He is going to blame censorship or something like that.

He is actually doing it cause he is rich now and wants to be in a tax haven country.

Edit:

Yep, I was right:

“The issue with the College of Psychologists is very annoying, to say the least, and the new legislation that the Liberals are attempting to push through, Bill C-63, we’d all be living in a totalitarian hellhole if it passes,” he told his daughter.

“The tax situation is out of hand. The government in Canada at the federal level is incompetent beyond belief, and it’s become uncomfortable for me in my neighbourhood in Toronto,” he added.

Says the man who has been freely expressing his ideas for 6 years and making lots of money doing so, he just now wants to keep as much of it.

God I hope he doesn’t ruin this long overdue improvement.

The trick is enjoying mundane tasks or the simple things like your walk to work.

I never understood the obsession with multiple screens. Isn’t it better to be obsessed with one giant screen? That way you don’t get black bars in front of you.

Edit:

I got to clarify. I’m talking about a single ultra wide screen with high resolution but also scaling so texts aren’t super small. There are gaming ones that are OLED so great color and performance. Both windows and Mac OS have software that lets you split in half or 1/3 + 2/3 (which you can’t do with two screens).

It’s ultra wide so you can look left and right and not top and bottom.

If you’re connecting a laptop, you’ll have a tiny screen for slack or a video or something.

I do agree that it’s more expensive.

Bruce thinks it’s a Bruce Willis movie.

… he gets a pass.

Exactly! Idk how we went away from this but whatever goes inside your head doesn’t matter at the end of the day, you can be hateful all you want if your able to do good actions.

That’s what freedom of speech is suppose to mean, it’s fine when it’s all thought experiments and hypotheticals, but when you put thoughts into action, then there can be consequences if said actions are bad.
