You are arguing in bad faith. Disengage.

No where in here is he equating. He is saying eventually he will come to the table. You are drawing conclusions without any context or even statements showing equivocation. He does not believe blue anon shit, he literally jokes about this shit. You are talking out your ass. Please stop, watch a day of his stream, and really listen. He's outspoken marxist and a lowkey (as in rarely talks about it on stream) lenist. This is absolute nonsense.

Wtf are you arguing against. My point was that Hasan has consistently and clearly voiced that what is happening in Israel is NOT a war and very different from what is happening in the Ukraine. You quoted Hasan talking about being forced to come to the table. This isn't him screaming, Russia owned. Your youtube thumbnail is evidence of nothing since it's not even clipped by him. If you listen to his content, it's nothing like the clickbait thumbnail. You clearly support Russia's pointless territorial grab in the Ukraine. Whatever. I don't think I've really decided on where Ifall on taking territory from the Ukraine to prevent Nato expansion. I do think the war is pretty sensiless and again, if you listen to Hasan, he says the same. You making a straw man argument and then accusing me of being parasocial to attempt to shut down any discussion make you look like an ass. Fuck right out of hear. People like you cause the left to fracture because of sectarianism. You cherry picked some irrelevant clips because you have an irrational hatred for a random leftist on the internet. Maybe selfcritique.

Correct. It's bizarre reading so much out right bullshit in the news mega.

I said he equates russia with israel genocidal actions. I have heard it multiple times at this point, he also keeps mentioning putin, Netanyahu and trump in the same sentence = moral.

This is an outright lie.

You are either misinformed or have an agenda. Hasan refused to endorse Harris. Was kicked out of the DNC convention for calling out the Democrats for their support of Israel. He is the most prolific streamer advocating for Palestinian emancipation. He is the target of an active ADL campaign to deplatform him for his criticism of Israel. He has not once vote scolded. I've listened to his stream while working since he started on Twitch. He frequently explains to his chat that the Russian/Ukraine conflict is completely different than the active genocide in Gaza. I don't agree with him on everything but he's a positive force.

Are you using GNOME or KDE? I know those can definitely utilize shell scripts from the right click menu. I'd recommend grabbing FFMPEG (probably already have it) and SOX. You are going to need to create a pretty basic shell script that extract the audio as a wav using FFMPEG, changing the speed with SOX (you can use FFMPEG but I find the audio warping dog shit), then FFMPEG to convert to mp3. For both GNOME and KDE the context menu shortcuts typically only pass the path to file you have selected as an argument. So you'll need to create a script for each speed. Honestly, it's not gonna be easy. You might find something in the Dolphin (kde filemanager) settings that will enable some basic context menu scripts for converting video to mp3. If this is too intimidating then I would check github for an FFMPEG wrapper. It's the a/v swiss army knife in linux.

All of 4 gen-x usenet users pictured

also, phonics

Giving up on phonics was a horrible idea. I'm not sure whose to blame for that but it clearly was a disaster.

The tools were annoying but the process wasn't very hard. Unprotected FTPs were pretty common early on and IRC download bots were around before torrenting. Sharing applications like Kazaa, Scour, Limewire, and Napster were super simple. There were fewer roadblocks. I wouldn't want to explain to someone how to get a private invite, understand the trackers rules, and ensure they do not get VPN leaks.

I can't even tell you what us Gen Xers did

They watched tv and traded tapes.
