i mean youre not gonna win trivia night with your mad unabomber infoez
What if someone goes off about how awful technology is
Then they'd get shot by a security guard
What if someone writes with a mid aligned T
i hate it when people make 'kids these days' rants. what, do you know how to send a telegraph? why should your kids know how to use a rotary phone then?
telling them someone who agrees with them killed a bunch of people helps how?
its useless info
Knowing how to use a rotary phone, probably not important at all ever
But MUH unabomber
neither is knowing who the unabomer is
Knowing what a rotary phone was and how it was used, that also probably not gonna ever help
Neither is knowing the unabomber
I often think not knowing things is better, but here we all are
like i said its pretty unfair to be disappointed that people don't know information that have literally no reason to ever know
That guy who doublecrossed Keanu in the matrix might've had the right idea
it would have to be a specific lesson about kaczynski, not just his existence and his exploits
You're making a specific point about the unabomber, not knowledge as a whole
I case of a disaster, where infrastructure is collapsing, I think a lot of people would die, simple because they are inapt.
Cyrus just wanted to go back to sleep
In another discord ultima online came up, what are the chances anyone under 25 knows what that was
in the larger scheme of things i dont really see why the unabomer should be more than a footnote or short paragraph in history books, if not completely omitted
at least 25% for actual nerds
He was part of MK Ultra
whataboutism
Unabomber is a substantial part of that page of history.
we are objectively better off with technology and legacy skills arent really important
legacy skills are important, tech cant spread without them
Not entirely true
if it came to needing survival skills en masse we would be fucked regardless
They are, if infrastructure collapses.
and we need survival skills for war
It's why I like being a hillbilly, even one whose a nerd, I'm gonna be just fine when the shit goes down.
americans are highly untrained pussies
thems fightin words
That's true
Knowing a little bit about ham radio, could help you a lot for coordination.
There's a lot of pussies who can't stand seeing an animal in a video game killed
i wish i had better training in a number of vital disciplines
Let alone actually hunt an animal
I've got my guns and ammo, I've got outdoor equipment, I can strip a deer. I'm ok
I know people who can't even set a mouse trap.
