hipster clap

You know that hand clapping noise that is *always* included in hipster music, like their version of more cowbell? … Yeah. That one. … Best paired with an ukulele, a Rube-Goldberg machine music video, skinny jeans, sloppy t-shirts with a huge deep neckline, whiny high-pitched singing with an over-exaggerated 80s reverb, zero attempts at making oneself look pretty, and a massively overinflated sense of self-importance for the purposes of confidence overcompensation. ;)

Luckily, the fad is almost as dead now, as it still required creativity and emotions, which have died with the emergence of the succeeding generation.
Somebody playing patient, to state that he did something so shameful, it requires a visit of the hospital.
Patient: Doctor, I’ve listened to that new band, KO Og!
Friend, acting as a Doctor: You got infected with the hipster clap! We need to perform an ear washing with some industrial-strength Rammstein, stat!

schütteres Rohr

Impotenz. Gemeint ist Impotenz.
Kurzfristige, nach zuviel Sex & Drogen, oder medizinische.
Genau so wie schütteres Haar das Gegenteil von vollem Haar ist.
Sie: Besorgst du’s mir nochmal?
Er: Tut mir LeidIch bin total platt von Gestern… Ich hab schütteres Rohr. :(

.io

The top-level domain that used to be a fad to use for indie game projects with 1980s graphics, but nowadays lets you recognize a toxic Silion Valley start-up with the containerized framework crypto AI offerings to solve a problem, that wouldn’t be there without people like them, with more of the same.

You know… the ones with the huge stock photos and utterly useless text blurbs, that look like that of an asexual pickup artist peddling courses. The one seemingly run by 3rd-wave-coffee-sipping iDrones in skinny red plaid dungarees with black suspenders, black 50s glasses and side-combed undercut Hitler Youth / generic-diverse-curly hairstyles running the equivalent of jsLinux as their primary OS. The child of Juicero and a Musk project, not doing hardware, not software, but maybe something cobbled together from existing big projects that a skilled coder could put together himself in an evening, but it somehow presented as the greatest invention to ever save the world. Making Pied Piper look like the old and sane generation.

Not a single barefoot greybeard hacker who has worked on bare metal or Unix boxen in sight. They’re CoC-blocked.
A: Hey, have you heard of that great new thing, doteyeohh.io?
They.io made this amazing new invention that will change the world.io! The iMSmart.io!

B: They invented the … browser?

A: NO!! The text editor dot IO! It’s a platform! For frameworks! In a container! Using the new Crust language! See? You can install any scab you like! Let me just download this 128x128 pixel art animation! … hold on this is only terabit 6G… OK, … See?

B: It takes 12GB to run… a disguised Chrome browser in a disguised VM? … Why are my fans spinning up?

A: That’s just the AI gathering your neural data for Google Telemetry. It will make writing text super-easy! You don’t even *have* to make life choices anymore! Who doesn’t hate being an actual individual, right?

B: Nice OS you got there. If only it had a better text editor…

Hanlon's Razor

Logical fallacy around the mantra “Never assume malice when stupidity will suffice”.
In reality, acting like “Whoops, sorry! Stoopid me!”, so the victim is willing to forgive you for longer, is the oldest trick in the book of evil.
Mostly used by anxious sheltered people when overwhelmed by reality .
Not necessarily wrong. But not necessarily right *either*. There simply is no rational basis for it. It is useless. Its false sense of security can itself be harmful again. Purely exists as a coping fantasy. Same thing as conspiracy theorists (−1) , but with an opposite polarity (+1).
Risen in popularity in late 2010s, due to an anxiety epidemic in young people caused by over-sheltering parents, for-profit fear media, over-prescription abuse, and several bad events (pandemic, wars, …).

The real way to tell evil from stupid is:
*Evil has a goal*. Its actions *converge* towards that.
Stupid is incompetent. Its actions *diverge* (into chaos).
Catch 1: Stupid people can *still* be useful pawns for evil people, and follow them. (See example.)
Catch 2: There doesn’t *have* to be an evil person. It may be emergent behavior in a group. (Proof: Your body’s cells aren’t smart. Yet together they can act smart.)
Usually it’s more complex, but that’s the gist.

In the end, stupid is already harmful. It wastes resources and slows advancement down. That is evil.
While evil is already stupid. As teamwork (being nice) is clearly an evolutionary advantage.
Leader figure A: Evil (scapegoat group B) are invading our (group A), destroying our (values) and taking our (valuables)! = Evil. Goal: Power
Group B, Pawn 2: Durk urr durr! Kill all (group B)! =Stupid. Goal: Whatever dear leader A says.
Group A, Anxious traumatized person 3: OMG, (group B) is destroying our (group A)! They are evil! Hyper-focused on anything remotely similar to the previous trauma: “It *must* be real!” Goal: Safety through avoidance.
Group A, Anxious *black-eyed* person 4: Calm down, it’s just Hanlon's Razor! Everything is fine. Nothing to see here, move on. Hyper-focused on anything remotely similar to the previous *safe space*: “It CAN’T be real!” Goal: Safety through ignorance.

(As you can see, everyone in this example is wrong, and merely driven by their anxiety, clinging to what they grew up with that seemingly lets them handle reality.)
