Digital Ocean now has separation for different projects

November 6, 2018 Leave a Comment Written by r3d_f0x

The VM hosting service Digital Ocean started offering separation for hosting resources into different projects.  This is a feature I wanted to see for a long time because I host many different servers for different purposes and different people.  Digital Ocean has gone a step above just separating cloud servers and they allow projects to have all of their self contained resources.  This makes it much easier to manage servers, domain names using Digital Ocean’s name servers, firewalls and any other components needed for a project.  Before this feature all hosting resources were combined together and it could be hard to keep track of resources for different projects when you had multiple projects you manage and you host projects for other people.

When Digital Ocean added this feature I created multiple projects for each of things I’m doing on Digital Ocean including the various projects that I’m hosting for other people.  This is a very exciting feature that I’ve been waiting for since I started using the service several years ago.  They’ve done a good job adding features since then but this is one of the best that I’ve seen so far.  The other best feature they added recently was doubling the server resources and now their minimum $5 plan includes 1GB of memory making it useful for any non-intensive hosting project.

This is not a paid promotion.  This is my thought.

Anti SJWs are NPCs

October 16, 2018 Leave a Comment Written by r3d_f0x

NPC theory perfectly explains why anti SJWs act the way they do.  For anyone who isn’t already familiar, there is a theory that some people aren’t actually real people organic bots that act like the real thing and are indistinguishable from real people.  The difference is that they lack any sense of self awareness and they don’t experience things in the traditional sense.  In a way they’re like super advanced chat bots; the bots themselves don’t think and neither do NPCs.  They only simulate human awareness.

Anti-SJWs show clear evidence of being pre-programmed.  They’re like NPCs in video games that constantly repeat the same few lines every time you see them.  They don’t learn from experience and instead repeat the same few talking points.  No matter how obvious it’s brought to their attention that they’re in the wrong, they’ll always reject facts and continue repeating their own assertions.  Whenever they detect women in a video game, without fail they’ll immediately attribute the detection to supposed SJW agendas and begin railing against it regardless of the context or what the actual reason was.  When confronted with facts, NPCs will refute the facts by any means necessary and continue with their assertions.  Any responses given by anti-SJWs are very predictable and they’ve been frequently refuted yet programmed responses continue.  The extent to which anti-SJWs will continue arguing their assertions in the face of overwhelming evidence with limited responses proves that they’re NPCs.

I can’t stand Tim Pool anymore

October 14, 2018 Leave a Comment Written by r3d_f0x

I’ve never really liked him because he’s a centrist and he’s not racist or part of the alt-right, but he has always struck me as being a quasi useful idiot of the alt-right.  Maybe I’m partly an SJW but he has seemed to give too much validity to bad opinions in a way that goes beyond just debating people one disagrees with.  Maybe I’m wrong.  It seems like he has actually taken a stand against the regressive left and stopped being centrist with them which is a step in the right direction even if it might not be the best one.

What is really getting to me that I can’t stand about him is that he isn’t even remotely close to being a journalist anymore.  He used to actually report on things but now all he does is find articles online and then pump out a 10-20 minute video ranting about it.  It’s nothing that other people can’t do themselves and it would be much faster to just read the article then to listen to someone else complain about it.  He’s not a traditional anti-SJW which is good, but he has this problem of his own and I’m sure most of his audience is becoming a bunch of centrist neckbeards who think that repeating someone else’s words is worth spending a few hours a day listening to.

One of the things that really bothers me is how much Tim keeps talking about how “concerned” he is about the political divide and how likely a civil war is, yet he keeps playing into that mentality.  I don’t see any reason to think he’s aware of it but it’s still a problem.

When conservatives talk about communists

October 14, 2018 Leave a Comment Written by r3d_f0x

I’ve noticed that when conservatives start blathering on with their useful far right idiocy on the subject of communism of the former USSR they start acting just like Antifa.  When conservatives start railing against communism, they start getting irrationally offended just for the sake of being offended even though there’s no reason why anyone in a western country should have a deep emotional connection with communism.  They get this extremely disingenuous righteous anger followed by expressing hope for violence against communists, which can include anyone who doesn’t share their far right views on communism.  This is the exact same pattern of behavior as the regressive left.  When someone starts expressing irrational anger at something when they have no justification for their level of emotion, it’s a sign of projection.  Conservatives use the former USSR to project problems with idealistic political system that can’t work because of human nature and claimed all men are created equal but led to the murder of 100 million people.

Communism doesn’t work because of human nature either.  The solution is not “somewhere in the middle.”

My opinion on Jordan Peterson

October 14, 2018 Leave a Comment Written by r3d_f0x

I haven’t read that far into his book yet and I’m not super familiar with him, so my opinion is likely to change.  From what I know so far he seems ok, but he has some pretty glaring flaws that anyone interested in his ideas should really take seriously before they go down his rabbit hole.  He has discussed a lot of ideas about psychology that I find interesting.  Some of them are probably true, but they’re very theoretical and not very scientific.  It’s part of an approach that I think has value but we should be very careful in how much trust we put in it.  Freud and Jung had the same approach to psychology back in their time and they were doing what they could using the methods of their time.  They’ve largely been debunked and I think of them sort of like the Christianity of psychology.  People had a lot of faith in them at one time, but people have learned and matured so they don’t rely on them as much.  Christianity is probably correct about many things especially in a metaphorical way, but relying on it too much is the intellectual equivalent of living with your parents.

Peterson’s interaction with Christianity is where I have problems.  From what I’ve seen he is not “promoting a Christian agenda” as regressives love to lie about.  They’ve lied about him so much they’ve lost all credibility and even as someone who frequently agrees with them, I can’t trust them.  Regressives view Peterson the way conservatives view Stalin.  JP’s problem with Christianity is he’s an atheist who seems to be hamfisting Christian values (sans anti LGBT hatred) into atheism as a shitty way of avoiding nihilism.  If that’s the case he really has failed at his own world view.  His association with Jung prevents him from promoting Christianity because Jung believed in all kinds of weird new age ideas.  Some of his ideas about psychology are deeply flawed, similar to how Freud over analyzed the mind and believed everyone is bisexual.

Being Polish, one of the biggest problems I have with Jordan Peterson is his repressed slavabooism and unintentional racism.  Everything I have seen from him so far has shown that he is very opposed to racism and I don’t believe any of the regressive lies that he secretly supports the alt-right.  However he has a very weird projection issue with the former USSR.  The things he says about the USSR are wildly incorrect and nothing short of useful idiocy for the far right.  The level of obsession that he has with the Soviets while believing so many far right anti Soviet lies shows a very concerning lack of self awareness.  It suggests that he really hasn’t gotten a good handle on the things he lectures other people about.  It reminds me of one of my friend from college who only ever had sex with his high school girlfriend and was constantly trying to be a pickup artist for inexperienced guys.  Such people might not be completely useless and it might be worth listening if you can sort out the things they say -and that’s a very big if- but they’re just as likely to fill your head with bad advice because they don’t have their own house in order.  One of his messages is you should put your house in order first before trying to do the same with the world, and it seems like he hasn’t done that.  It’s a process that is probably never completed anyway.

It seems that he would be much better if he hadn’t gotten involved with politics and he was just a psychologist and we could just judge and discuss the ideas he proposes.  Some of the things he has said make a lot of sense.  Some of them get into Freudian over analysis.

People who whine about political correctness are actually politically correct themselves

August 29, 2018 Leave a Comment Written by r3d_f0x

A lot of people on the right and alienated people on the left like to complain about how burdensome political correctness is and sometimes even brag about how politically incorrect they are.  Defenders of the regressive left like to point out that political correctness is simply about being polite.  As far as politeness and reasonable sensitivity go, I’m in agreement with political correctness.  Unfortunately it doesn’t stop there.  Political correctness is an anti-American shit show that aims to control people and override common sense.  That’s why political correctness is so hated.  Like communism, it calls for a a good system that helps people but collapses into tyranny when it actually gets implemented.

Even with so much open hatred of political correctness, it can still be found in the strongly politically incorrect.  If you take the lower pictured, you can see that the full auto position says “full libturd.”  One day that lower is going to create a Mandela Effect where tons of people remember it saying “full libtard.”  No one actually says “libturd,” or at least it’s very rare and they’re probably avoiding “libtard,” which is the common expression.  This is a perfect example of political correctness among the politically correct.  Even when Spikes Tactical is expressing contempt for the regressive left and political correctness, they’re doing it in a way that’s politically correct to avoid offending retarded people.  That’s strong irony.

Rags went off about muh historical accuracy without the slightest sense of self awareness

June 21, 2018 Leave a Comment Written by r3d_f0x

I started watching part of his video about Battlefield V to see how incredibly cringeworthy it would be.  I only watched part of it because I don’t feel like listening to an angry virgin rant about something no reasonable person cares about.  His incredibly strained, uptight and stressed voice gives away the obvious fact that he’s never so much as even touched a girl, if his hatred of women wasn’t enough to give it away.  Rags seems to have very effeminate speech patterns that are common among boys who live with their parents, which make it all the more ironic when he goes off calling people cucks.  Look in the fucking mirror dude.  There’s a sample subject that feminist and SJW feminization of boys is creating a pandemic of whiny incels.  That should be proof I’m not an SJW because I realize I’m sharing a viewpoint with them here.

The part that really stood out as showing how un-self aware Rags is was when he ranted at the “inaccuracy” of including women in World War II.  It’s not inaccurate but depending on the situation he has a point.  I will admit that I do find the inclusion of white women in World War II games to be very off-putting and it does break immersion, sometimes more then other things.  Slavic women are technically white but it’s not like anyone really cared about that, especially during World War II.  Rags couldn’t be satisfied with his first complaint and had to drive on stating that previous World War II and World War I games were historically accurate and included an example that is so objectively wrong that he is either dishonest, mentally ill or doesn’t even play these games.  He tried to say World War II games don’t include holographic sights when Call of Duty World War II in 2017 included sights that are functionally identical and Battlefield 1 in 2016 included functionally similar sights in World War I.  As for his claim about historical accuracy, Battlefield 1 includes late war and experimental sub machine guns as entry level weapons that are available to every player and covers the battlefields of Europe with fully semi automatic rifles.  Battlefield 1942 included German soldiers running around Britain with StG-44s in 1940.  If that isn’t a giant fuck you to immersion and historical accuracy then I don’t know what should qualify.

One last blow to the arguments of shrieking neckbeards was the game Silent Storm from 2003.  It allowed the player to create a female character from any country and included female NPCs that could be added to the player’s squad.  I originally only used men and Soviet women in my squad for muh immersion but after I saw other immersion breaking characteristics of the game I stopped caring as much.  At one point I was equipping my Soviet female character with a silenced sub machine gun and she said “I bet you are giving me this because I am a woman.”  I laughed and then realized what would happen if they made a game like this today.  If an incel had a female character say that to them, it would trigger them worse then SJWs when Trump was elected.  Back in 2003, there wasn’t this level of outrage over wimminz in video games.  Only a year later Call of Duty included a playable female character in their campaign, and no one freaked out.  Of course, it was in the Soviet Union and it made sense.

I don’t even like SJWs but I still recognize this bullshit for what it is.  I understand what makes the regressive left regressive, and it is because of their tone, accusations and how they force things on people.  At the same time, people do want to be progressive and include women in games because it’s popular right now.   Most people can put that in perspective and no one is forcing incel soyboys to play video games they don’t like.  It is honestly jarring to see non Soviet women in a World War II game, and it does break immersion more then technical inconsistencies like the time period a map takes place in and the weapons that are available.  It’s not a huge problem either and I was able to adapt when Call of Duty World at War allowed the Japanese to use Soviet weapons because the classes weren’t specific to each country.  My honest opinion is that non Soviet women don’t belong in World War II games.  However, I can articulate that clearly and it’s not just a manifestation of latent sexism.  I can also put it in perspective and I understand why some games allow women from all countries.  In Call of Duty World War II it’s because the character you create is used regardless of what country you play as.  Even if one were to make a female Red Army soldier, that same character would be used in every army in the game.  The level of outrage and incoherence that these nerds get themselves to is proof of their true feelings.

Stop getting offended on behalf of other races

April 30, 2018 Leave a Comment Written by r3d_f0x

Being a Slav is a good experience for what it’s like to be black.  It’s usually a reminder of what it’s like to experience frequent racism, but now I’m learning what it’s like to be part of a marginalized group and constantly SJWs virtue signal and get triggered over stupid shit on your behalf  that does nothing but make a mockery out of legitimate problems.  I went through the same experience that black people go through when they have to watch SJWs virtue signal and reduce serious issues to a punchline during the incident with Count Dankula.  I probably wouldn’t be associated with someone who is an edgelord, but I’m not offended by someone making jokes about the Holocaust.

I found this meme that shows a Nazi turning on a gas chamber with a transparent window in the door where meme creators inserts a character from whatever group they hate.  A very rough estimate of 35 million Slavs were murdered by the Nazis, yet I’m not triggered by this meme.  These fuckers need to lighten up.  Stop getting offended on behalf of other races because they don’t need you to speak for them and you’re the one who is being racist by treating other racists like snowflakes.

This shit with Count Dankula

April 26, 2018 Leave a Comment Written by r3d_f0x

I am not a “supporter” of Count Dankula in any way.  His comedy style, from the limited quantity I have seen, seems to appeal to a very low denominator.  None of it is anything that should be illegal.  The conviction and verdict for the “crime” he committed were certifiable.  Anyone who is that easily offended needs to seek professional help in order to help them deal with the stress.  This is serious because there’s no reason why the video Count Dankula made should cause anyone but a Holocaust survivor so much distress.

If anyone reading this doesn’t already know what happened, Count Dankula was convicted of making a video where he trained his girlfriend’s dog to make Nazi salutes whenever he said “Gas the Jews.”  As someone who is part of a race that was murdered in the tens of millions by the Nazis, I think the joke is slightly funny.  I wouldn’t normally watch videos like that because they’re usually juvenile, but that doesn’t mean they should be illegal.  I don’t need to be patronized by regressive pseudo-marxists getting offended on my behalf.

One reason why this whole incident is truly infuriating is because there are real pseudo-psychopathic people online who need to be put in prison for their online actions.  These include people who post personal information to direct online hate mobs against their victims to get them fired or even to bully them into suicide.  Such campaigns can lead to identity theft and life long financial ruin.  Instead, law enforcement is directing their efforts and prosecuting people for being offensive in a terrible miscarriage of online justice.
