It's funny because these guys who lament science communication are the same ones who'll call anyone else using terms from non-STEM fields "gatekeepers" at the drop of a hat in my experience...

Yeah, you really suck at this. Good that you're bowing out.

Maybe stick to what you know best, like banning abortion, or perhaps free market health care, since you love competition so much.

You know. Stay in your lane so you're not reduced to pretending to "not care" when you get your arse handed to you.

I'm sure your mum thinks you're cool.

If you couldn't care, why comment?

Of course you find it funny other countries watch stuff from other countries.

You're American. The only time you're aware of other cultures is when you're looking at them through a bombsight. And even then you don't know what you're looking at.

You're mad other countries don't treat the outside world like you do, with fear, suspicion, and ignorance. And that's why you had to weigh in.

America is unique in its xenophobia.

It's not competition if it's an unfair playing field.

And we're fixing that.

I mean, look how desperate your are to maintain a cultural hegemony. You're so afraid of the outside world you're paranoid of people telling their own stories for themselves. Look how angry you are at a country you're never going to live in wanting to make its own art.

Imagine feeling threatened by that- wait. You don't have to imagine.

Hey, at least I'm not commenting on stuff I don't understand.

What was your qualifications again? A deadshit Yank who wants to feel smart by commenting in global thread but doesn't actually have any frame of reference for anything outside of the lower 48?

This is why I haven't had an Intel processor in over a decade.

Just...could not be arse figuring out the difference between the 1234K, the 1324, the 1243, and the 1342K, even though they've got the same clocks and cores, and then wondering if that motherboard I want is the right motherboard for it.
