I read an interesting article a few years ago that correlated the rise of minorities and women on the internet with the rise of smartphones.

Using the early 2000s as an example, in those days it required a little effort to sit down and use a desktop to browse the web. Even though it involved little effort, only men seemed to take an interest.

Once smart phones came around, the internet became available at the touch of a button. Thanks to the smart phone we now have our XX and melanin-enriched friends molding the internet.

Only old but still popular site I've noticed that has been relatively untouched is Newgrounds, though it now has SJW content.

For over 2 decades now they had access to pretty much every aspect of western or first world information. including: IT-technology, engineering, agriculture, biology, medicine, physics and whatever else they want. everything at a university level and ready to use. Most of them did nothing with it and continued to do siestas or hunt virgins to cure aids.

Some societies are just better than others. The only country that actually managed to use the internet to its advantage was China. Their hackers got specs and schematics for everything they wanted. Of course their replicas dont match western industrystandards, but it kind of works for them.

It's pretty much destroyed society. It opens up a world that didn't exist prior to it's invention, a world where you have access to kinds of debauchery & degeneracy that you didn't even know existed.

It allows both freedom of information, but also an open door into your home for social engineering on an exponential scale, even potentially worse than TV. Porn is basically cancer for your brain. Look at how many trannies & IR cucks there are, this is jews using porn to poison your brain. You have all these sites, that if you allow yourself to be drawn in to them, while having little real social interaction, can brainwash you into believing something that isn't true. /pol/ is a good example of this.

r9k is probably the most destructive board on 4chan, literal soul destroying if you go there too much & don't have any real life interaction. I've been there a few times, now if I didn't know different, that board could genuinely fuck you up, as could /pol/.

I avoided the first assault. Just something in the back of my head told me that it wasn't a good idea to go out that day.

I lost a testicle that day, and my good friend Burnsey lost an eye. Those injuries were nothing compared to those that happened to the Jonesey boys down the street though, oh boy.

It's a significant education problem. Change in third world nations is slow, especially when internet access isn't as widespread as you think. It also doesn't mean they know what to look for or how to effectively use it. A corrupt and terrible politician isn't going to do that much research on others if he's too busy fucking sheep.

>>73363455

I used OS/2 on an old laptop once. It was like a better version of Windows 95 or 98. IBM and their products were great in the 1990s, and right up to the time they stopped selling actual computers and laptops. These days it's more of a third rate Indian staffing firm.

They opened a facility last year in my town that they said would create thousands of high-tech jobs. Not a single one of those jobs went to any local person (pretty strange given we have several colleges and universities within a few miles of each other, including the state university system's flagship campus), but to Indian and some Chinese H1B visa holders. They ended up displacing a lot of American workers because the place primarily exists to pimp these foreigners out to other companies, something that is technically in violation of the visa on several levels.

I thought I was going to have to leave here, but suddenly there is a big demand for people, specifically American citizens, who have experience or interest in security. Apparently these people write such bad code and companies around here that used them are so flooded with their shitty code that they have to spend shit tons of money on huge security teams to patch the gaping security holes they leave and deal with the attacks they are vulnerable to. At the moment, I have interviews scheduled for four different jobs, all except one pay double what I'm making now and all involve security, something I wanted to go into when I first started college.

What bugs me the most is how after the normie infestation, your typical developer isn't creating new tech or services for the sake of creating something innovating or offering people new, cool stuff, but rather they're doing to gain humongous amount of money. Google used to be a pretty cool guy but now it's managed by marketing fags and women who couldn't care less about actual innovative technology but instead just wants to maximise the amount of casual phone app users.

I am also frankly quite disgusted by the amount of redundant (for the user) scripts every web site nowadays have. Your typical news paper site offers a very simple layout, a small news story but still has well over 2500 lines of code which is simply absurd.

The thing which mostly grinds my gears, though, is the amount of tech illiterate people using the internet and how every possible site / app / whatever caters to them. That's why we get shit like the metro GUI on Windows 8, or people wanting a web app for everything an actual software on your computer could do far better. These people will never learn anything about computers when the developers make everything so simple a baby could use them while at the same time making any customising for advanced users impossible or at least tedious.

Oh, and when I started using the internet, I had to toughen up because a lot of people were not that nice. It was a good lesson to learn but the normies of today would have none of this. It's all safe spaces and shit

In almost any undeveloped of transition country you see these pothetic excuses for websites, even at the university level where you would expect they would have some sort of programming/web design faculty. The major businesses do have more modern websites. I guess they outsource their work, or people working for a government or university don't give a shit.

As a long time Mac guy I hated those because the first version of those had not a single high-speed interface. No Firewire, no Ethernet, no slot, just a couple of first-generation USB ports. And that dumb hockey-puck mouse. Also, with the exception of laptops, I have never liked any screen being tied to a device, including those VCR/TV combos.

But smartphones are the real cancer in the internets. Mobile posters are shit. Take the time to get a real computer and at least take a moment that you've typed the right word on that stupid keyboard that takes up half the screen.

To each his own, some people are still enjoying Arena shooters, you should try the new UT, the playerbase is small but you'll find games most of the time.

The problem nowadays is that people will simply ignore a game when it doesn't have a playerbase bigger than 5k, a lot of good FPS games have a peak of 300ish players on weekends. But If you ask me I rather play versus the same good players over and over again than random cheaters like I do playing CSGO.

Liberals aren't the ones who made everyone's manufacturing jobs move overseas where they now have to work3 retail Jobs while still on govt benefits to live. All because conservatives wanted to pay less in taxes while rich people get away with stashing money overseas and using loopholes to get away from paying their fair share all because the average conservative doesn't want to see their taxes go to welfare for some minorities while ignoring all the federal money that red states receive disproportionate amount of money they put back in the pot so most of those nice roads are paid for by liberals, and not to mention all the corporate welfare but at least the darkies get nuffin. So you all live in fear because minorities with no money resort to crime and hate how they've been oppressed for generations and you hide behind your guns like the stupid bootlicker ignorant piece of shit you want to be.

But I don't play multiplayer any more so I don't really care about modern shooters. I mostly just play old crpg's and Doom which I also mod for.

LOL, that color is pretty funny. I actually dig the real colors 70s Volvos came in, like orange and jade green, true red, gold etc.Very clean, matte shades, nothing else like them.

It's cool to hear they are still appreciated over there. The 240 series is incredible.

The quality problems in modern society drive me nuts. SO MUCH CRAP EVERYWHERE. I had to drop off a few things at the landfill recently and the volume of junk was overwhelming. And hoarding. I know that's not completely a modern thing but it is off the hook these days. Especially all these neurotic, liberal, middle aged hipster types I know. They have so much stuff their apartments are crammed to the seams. They hoard relics from the world which is gone, and often value those things instead of children, family, emotional and physical health. It is super sad, the only way they feel they can preserve, even recreate the world they miss. And they're too dumb to realize how their politics rekt that world.

My wife feels like I do. She combs through estate sales, thrift/charity shops, places like that. She is fast and very good at it. She shops rich areas and gets both great old stuff (like my 70's Marantz tuner and speakers) and high quality new things that rich people just throw away. So we have quality furniture, clothing and housewares we could never have afforded new. Even my $1000 mountain bike, we paid $150 for it at a garage sale. Bought and never used. We almost never have to replace anything and we don't spend beyond our means.

It's hard to imagine what our society will be like if we experience a return to quality over quantity, and spiritual, emotional and family values over material values and lust for cheap fame and notoriety.

This is a typical developmental cycle of this kind of company. In the beginning you've innovation because you're creating a market. However, finally there is bureaucracy and all is about the market itself you are providing for and not the product you are producing any longer.

I grew up constantly being told "Don't give your personal details on the internet". And now it seems like most people use the internet solely to share their personal details.
