if anyone feels like chattin i'm in talk room

chatting is for those with social skills

😄

I barely have those so

I'm just kinda bored

your icon in the talk room looks like a bucket of kfc

CX in chat boys

I won't be able to VC for another hour

also, TR4 is best.

the only times i'm available for VC is when every discord server i'm in is dead lmao

that tl;dr is incredibly boring

So

I'm pretty sure Boogie has lost it

boogie died earlier today

in his newest 'split personality podcast' he had himself and Francis get into an argument in which boogie, knowing francis is in his imagination, fought him? and francis won

i heard he died tomarrow

and now francis is on twitter

https://twitter.com/Boogie2988/status/1017543494959882240

They literally had the podcast end with "now that I have control of the body we're gonna get fat again imma go order pizza'

from the francis voice

give it time to figure out if its a performance or not

I don't think he's going spoony I think he's just trying to entertain

has spoony got worse lately? or is that a reference to him roleplaying his pet dog?

I think he's pretty much been keeping steady around that level for a while now

You know what's funny I am a big Pro 2nd Amendment person and I live in California

canadians use to be very pro 2nd amendment

me2

Canadians used to have easy access to firearms and very few restrictions

But sometime in the last century, like everyone else it seems, someone started down the curb freedoms path

California gun law are super restrictive but since im mostly into ww1-2 guns alot of what i want to own is legal

...uh, I think about 20% of the population where I am has a a conceal carry license

Just wait until they go after your World War 1 and World War 2 firearms because they are heavier caliber bullets

bAn LaRgE bOoLeTs

but they're not made out of black plastic so they can't be threatening

i wouldn't put it past them to ban large bullet sizes

if only because it's counterproductive as fuck

Del Ray Ban 50 BMG rounds what's to say they been anyting 308 or higher

which is the main theme of US gun control

Damn autocorrect they already band 50 BMG

When I'm driving and using Google's speech to text

`on your phone while driving reeeee`

But it is hands-free

```talk to person in passenger seat```
Totally cool, safe, fine.
```talk to person on phone over speakerphone```
Totally irresponsible, risking everyone's life, terrible.

When I'm driving to a liquor store to see if they still want have a specific type of whiskey that I never tried before

The manufacture decided to discontinue that line of whiskey

alcohol and driving in the same sentence REEEEEEEE

Actually is really funny I do have a 1903 at home also

So it's going to be whiskey driving and firearms

wew

The idea is if you're both in the car, it's in the passenger's interest to also pay attention to the road

I just ignore the other person, or say "hold on" when I need to focus on the road, same as when they're in the passenger seat

I don't think I've ever had someone voluntarily stop talking in the passenger seat because they realized on their own I needed to focus

I can't say I ignore them. Otherwise I'd be singing on the top of my lungs

I'm so used to driving that I don't... focus on it

I just prioritize information of the road over the internals of the car

Something catches my attention and everything else is tuned out

Most people go into auto pilot during driving, but sometimes you have to actually pay attention

When I'm a passenger, I do talk about what's going on in traffic

Well 'autopilot' is usually cross country

anywhere else is bad

i don't even have a driver's license 👍🏻

non-American, underage, or NEET, place your bets here folks

I mean, that's a pretty big range

Learn on a Vandura, no one wants to hit a VAndura

shitty city for driving + really good public transit system

Is that a loli avatar... lol

Toronto

Portland

So non-American then

hey we're not quite unamerican yet

the battle for portland is still ongoing

You guys need to give Austin its city motto back

"Not the one in Maine"?

and i'm getting the H E C C out of here

no, oregon

Austin is always weird, Dallas is always hated

I swear San Antonio exists

Dallas is just boring in my experience.

San Antonio is just a parking lot for AstroWorld

but muh alamo

dunno, kinda like the San Antonio river walkway

Yeah that is nice.

How many people fall down elevator shafts in a year in Dallas?

Obviously needs to be more

GAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

lol

That is the ultimate troll

Dude literally proved the point of "It's okay to be white"

I love it

I love that 4chan literally turned a statement used for any other group into a 'hate meme'

It's okay to be [gay, female, bi, trans, autistic, whatever]

But not white, oh no, that's hateful

I just wish it had progressed to "It's okay to be" -> "It's okay" -> posting just plain white pieces of printer paper

Oh try to turn the entire thing into a 'hate meme'?

It's okay isn't okay

doki doki is not oki doki

Just imagine how ridiculous people would look getting upset at that

I mean, people already look ridiculous

I get called a russian nazi bot, because... I took the piss out of their flawed point

sorry russian troll bot

lmao I love this https://twitter.com/Chr_Cru/status/1017029652655767552

Here's the link to the whole interview https://t.co/rzE5Jlh60u

whats the deal with albania

This vid came after Tims Vid. Could be cherry picked, but I did listen anyway https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mn1fxChSbYk

@GingaBomber is not cherrypicking

is true

Well cause all of it cam from fox. Just wanted to be sure.

And well, you cant argue with statistics.

So I found the vide rather damning.

yay

levels of cupckes

Lmao this is embarrassing

They needed 35 grand for that?

lame

What's that?

The 35000 pound Trump "blimp"

No they just wanted money from idiots. Balloon was probably really cheap.

Looks like 500 pounds max

It’s smart really. I could probably make a ton selling stuff to triggered lefties.

These protests are pathetic man

Any violence yet or just reeeeeeing?

Just reeeing

I swear the BBC is gonna be like "BIGGEST PROTEST IN BRITAIN EVEN #RESISTDRUMPF"

they'll even call it a success

@GingaBomber it could very well be cherry picked, but my state, which has been democratically run for a while, is almost a mirror of those trends too. That could just be coincidental.

#poptheballoon

I dont think Trump is very "presidential" but he:
was the first president since reagan to promise to recognise Jerusalem as cap - and actually do it
the first president since Clinton enacted a bill to separate kids from adults at the border to end that policy
was the first president to get a meeting with a NK leader to start meaningful peace talks

i think the us has better foreign relations now than most european countrys

its a weird world we live in

Well the head mod of /r/KotakuInAction tried capping the Sub (http://archive.is/rSKaM). Though it being a massive active sub meant the admins had to step in put him on probation (until they are certain he was not just hacked or something) & rolled back the sub to be live again with the other mods in charge.

oh.. and managed to get other NATO members to pay their fair share (potentially)

its really not fair that the UK and US are the only ones paying what we said we would

well i heard 4 other nato countrys were too

yeah some countries with low gdp

greece, estonia, poland

britain pays 2.21% .... that extra .21% could probably cover all three of those countries bill combined 😛

atleast those poor people try

the ones that matter are germany and france

germany pays 1.19%

and as trump says... germany is a wealthy country... and theyre saying maybe we can pay by 2030... and trumps like... yeah... or maybe you could pay right now? we're not subsidising your welfare bills 😛

which is fair enough

I mean the counter argument is that the only country thats ever called on NATO forces is the US in 2001...

https://twitter.com/ChrisDYork/status/1017718625103482881 is this verifiable?

yeah its down

at least thats what Ive heard in other discords

you guys cant even be bothered to give us the middle finger longer than we celebrate thanksgiving every year

they are beta's.... their arms probably got tired

or they got tired of fighting capitalism and decided to take a break in the local starbucks

coffee is supose to give you energy

I think all the soy negates it.

They probably only drink decaf too.

https://twitter.com/ajplus/status/1017569283952467969

i wonder if soy milk is what you feed to people if you want to turn them into soylent

Oh shit

Now that's the real conspiracy

I thought the executive order was already written that ended child-adult separation

Yep

That vid was posted yesterday lol

It doesn't fit the narrative that trump is literally hitler though.

lmao it's more pathetic than i thought

jesus this IQ shit at the start of the college backlash is soo misinformed

What happened?

i think it comes down to people misunderstanding what IQ is, and having a lot of feelings about how a single metric can effect so much

for those that want to know, IQ is a mesurement of 'g'

like meter or mile is a measurement of distance

g is general cognitive ability

GENERAL meaning it is used across almost every task

when you take a association or picture solving IQ test, it is not only measuring your ability to puzzle things together

unless you practice for that specific test, you will get a score, you would get on another kind of IQ test too

we can do this because g is general, not specific

it is true there might be devisions in IQ, but this has been far from proven, and if history is anything to go by this will just end up like emotional intelligence.. a feel good suggestion with a lot of meme value

just no scientific value

(EQ turned out to be entirely personality driven, something we have much better established metrics for)

a person with a high IQ might become a doctor. this is not because a doctor learns a thing and then it stays the same forever. jobs that stay static in their requirements are usually reserved for low IQ people

so even though a doctor with high IQ can 'doctor' pretty well, it also likely means he could learn any other task much quicker then a lower IQ individual

the issue is, that he needs to apply himself first

yeah people who tend to think iq doesent mean very much in my experince dont actually know much about iq but insted have heard a lot of progressive propaganda being spread in academia

which is another reason why you never see any general geniuses

its very likely our doctor could have been a great scientist/engineer/you name it too

what about genius generals?

but there just almost issnt enough time in the day to keep up with 1 discipline, let alone several

combat success is associated with IQ too

i think its still illegal to let anyone enter the US army with a IQ of less then 80

except the marines

"What do you call a marine with an IQ of 70? General."

jk jk

i very much doubt sub 80 people can become marines

its a joke

nut that they are not allowed to try

just that they wont succeed 😛

the armed forces meme on each other, hard.

hmm could be, not my scene

so the basic joke is that marines are dumb and brutish.

that flyboys are arrogant and cocky

that Navy types don't do much of anything outside of go to foreign ports and supporting the local sex industry

there are a couple of exceptions to the general nature of IQ. they are very rare and far between. these people are called idiot savants

most of the time they are the result of some form of brain damage

sometimes birth defects

and they are VERY succcessful in a very tiny tiny field

like for example a person that can tell you the day of the week for any date you give him

BUT

he wont be able to perform simple addition subtraction maths

even though both of those tasks, for cognitive 'normals' involve the same process

now lets go a little bit more controversial

twin studies

you take genetic twins

they are adopted

one goes to a upperclass household, the other to a middle class household for example

then measure their IQ when they are adults

they have the same genes (read: nature) but different environments (read: nurture)

the higher class people tended to have higher IQs, but class only accounts for 20-50% of the difference , depending on the studies

so yes, taking a baby and dropping it in the desert will effect its IQ, to use Tims analogy

but taking that same baby and putting it in a rich family will increase its IQ, but depending on its genetic background

aka if you have less genes that result is less smarts, even putting you in a rich household will not make you just as smart as the other people in the same kind of households

rather yet, if you want more high IQ people, the best solution is to let rich people adopts the highest IQ babies

over the less high IQ ones

they will be more successful as a result (on average)

and benefit society as a whole more

how does one measure the IQ of a baby?

like i said earlier

IQ is a measurement of general inteligence

so you make the babies compete in cognitive tasks

for example

yes, but like what? can it find the tit on its own?

nah thats all nurture pretty much, they can suck tiddy from the getgo

they can also grasp from the getgo

at what age do these tests count?

as soon as they can do a trick pretty much

there are some tricks we all learn as babies

like object permanence

the faster a baby understands object permanence, the higher its IQ is projected to be, if it does not eat any lead paint while growing up

although its IQ will likely still be higher then those that understand object permanence later, and consume the same amount of lead paint

on average

so no toys made in china

a other more simpler test

is to put a lil sticky ball on the forhead of the baby, that it cant sense cause of weight of feeling or anything

and then put the baby infront of a mirror

if the baby swats away the ball using his reflection, he understands the "mirror trick"

the faster a baby learns that, the higher its IQ

first word is another one

now here is a question: does the IQ of when you are an adult ever matter when trying to figure out the likely intelligence range of their kid?

you meaure IQ based on age anyway all the time

you dont compare babies to adults ofcourse

the average baby IQ is 100, just liket he average adult
