You're just being ridiculous. Say all you want about his personality, indeed he is a though pill to swallow. However there's no one more talented in pop right now.

Indeed.

There is no one talented in pop right now.

If it weren't for intruding on Taylor Swift and boning Kim K. 95% of people wouldn't know or care about the bipolar SOB - and most don't anyhow. Once Kim K. is done with him his non-producing shelf life is very limited.

agreed, also, there's no such thing as bad publicity. Im glad to say Kayne who?

It's my understanding that Kanye West is some sort of rapper and I can honestly say that's about all I know about him.  I know I've heard the name before but couldn't name a single one of his songs.  Not sure why anyone should care about his apparent tantrums.

Art curator, fashion designer, industrial designer, graphic designer, great music producer, fantastic music composer and lyricist and even have directed a couple of short films witch have been presented at art galleries. So yes, to me, that's what a genius do.

Nobody disputes that he engages in a wide range of creative endeavours, nor that they are commercially successful, but that doesn't mean he warrants the title "genius". His music is mostly derivative, sampling other successful tunes and contributing little to nothing to them.

 

In my eyes he is a nobody, an arrogant and obnoxious influence that society could do without, and certainly not even close to being a genius.

Today I was reading the news and remembered your post. Kanye West has just been appointed to curate three pavilions of the Venice Bienalle, the most important art event in the world. Not everyone can be appointed with such task since a committee reunites every year to select a possible name from a list of intelectual, artists, critics and sociologists. Your talent and cultural pertinence has to be undisputed to be selected to task such honor.

 

Disregard the satire reaction the internet has having in the moment. The bienalle account itself announced the event.

 

Such an accomplishment for a nobody, huh? ;)

I'm not disputing that he is an incredibly successful individual who has made a large contribution to culture and music. I simply refute the notion that he is a "genius" when I listen to the drivel he spouts out in interviews or his derivative and unpleasant music. Genius denotes intelligence and Kayne West falls well short of that bar.

Genius denotes intelligence, indeed, but it rarely denotes emotional stability to fully articulate that intelligence. If you dont believe me read some books about Picasso or Dali.

I simply haven't seen any evidence that Kanye West is intelligent, let alone a genius. To me musical geniuses would be people like Elton John, Freddie Mercury or even someone as contemporary as Lady Gaga - intelligent people who act as positive role models and have undisputed songwriting capabilities. Kayne West isn't any of those things; in fact he's the polar opposite. I mean, next you'll be telling me than Snooki is a genius too!

Did you know that Gaga's best music was produced and written by both Kanye West and Alexander McQueen?

No I didn't, because it's not true. Kayne is not listed in the credits for any of her albums, as producer or songwriter - nor in the list of her recorded songs. And Alexander McQueen is a fashion designer who is referenced by Lady Gaga but wasn't involved in writing or producing her music. I honestly don't have a clue what you're talking about.  :s

blah blah

 

Dude, you've got a hard-on for him. We get it.

But the guy is a loser. Those 'achievements' you mention don't mean crap. You could get a hamster to do any of that. And being invited to 'curate' some art exhibits is done for publicity. Just shows how friggin shallow the world is. It would be easy to name heaps of other losers even more famous. Like Kardashian.

    • Secure Boot

      By cork1958 · Posted

      Simple answer is yes, you will still get the Windows updates and as long as browser is up to date, you will be good. Only thing secure boot does is protect you against boot level threats and make it harder to install other OS's. I've been looking into this pretty thoroughly lately myself as wifes computer has secure boot disabled plus my other, older computers that run Linux, don't have secure boot enabled. Have seen all kinds of questions about this on the Linux Mint and MX Linux forums. Just don't suddenly enable secure boot now.
    • Ford execs say they made a mistake when they replaced human engineers with AI

      How many other companies will follow Ford's lead? Or, have they already gotten lazy and become enslaved to AI--and now can't figure out how to get out of that mess.
    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval

      Why would any self-respecting intelligent person follow any recommendation by Donald's GOP administration? With almost two years of fabrications, deceit, and blatantly illegal behavior, why believe them now? They had best be gone after the November 2026 election, so we'll wait and see.
    • AltSendme 0.4.1

      By Copernic · Posted

      AltSendme 0.4.1 by Razvan Serea AltSendme is a minimal, cross-platform application designed for fast, secure, and private peer-to-peer file transfers. It allows users to send files or entire directories directly between devices without relying on cloud servers, accounts, or any personal information. Everything is encrypted end-to-end using modern protocols like QUIC and TLS 1.3, ensuring both strong security and low-latency performance. Transfers are verified with BLAKE3 for data integrity, and interrupted downloads automatically resume, making the experience reliable even on unstable connections. You can transfer anything—images, videos, documents, and more. Integrity checks are performed on both ends, so your files are automatically verified for correctness during both sending and receiving. AltSendme works seamlessly across local networks or long-distance links, capable of saturating multi-gigabit connections for extremely fast delivery. With built-in NAT traversal and encrypted relay fallback, it connects devices almost anywhere. The app integrates with the Sendme CLI and will soon support mobile and web platforms. Fully free and open-source, AltSendme offers a lightweight, privacy-first alternative to traditional cloud-based services, removing size limits, upload costs, and unnecessary data exposure. AltSendme 0.4.1 changelog: Release Highlights Self-hosted relays: Run your own iroh relay so transfers don't rely on public infrastructure. Includes a full deployment template in deploy/relay/ with Docker Compose for a VPS and configuration examples for production use. Fly.io support: One-click deploy template for Fly.io, including a quick-start config (fly.dev.toml) for testing without a custom domain, plus production setup with Let's Encrypt and your own hostname. Relay settings UI: New Settings → Network panel to choose how AltSendme connects: automatic public relays, custom self-hosted URLs (with optional auth token), or disabled. Test connections, verify latency, and see live relay status in the footer. Disable relays: Turn off relay servers entirely when you only need same-network transfers (e.g. LAN). Direct connections only. No relay hop required when devices can reach each other. Android graduates from beta: Android is now part of the regular release cycle alongside desktop. APKs ship with each version (universal, arm64, and armv7). Other improvements Private relay access control via shared auth token Relay fallback notifications when a custom relay is unreachable Broadcast mode toggle in sharing settings Android release build fixes (split-per-ABI APKs, universal APK preservation) UI polish: mobile safe-area insets, dropzone layout, transfer progress animation Bug fixes for minification-related serialization issues and system tray icon loading What's Changed feat(relay): add relay status functionality and settings UI (a120cdf) feat(relay): implement custom relay server configuration and verification (51276c7) feat(relay): add configuration for private relay access and enhance observability features (48fbabf) feat(relay): enhance relay URL validation, display connection status (d4fffa0) feat(relay): add RelayChangeGuard component and enhance relay-related translations (16ba514) feat(broadcast): add toggle setting for broadcast mode in sharing UI (ca6d977) fix(relay): correct QUIC discovery port, pin image, templatize fly.dev (52a2ba5) fix: More broken serialization due to minification (67491a9) fix(android): preserve true universal APK across per-ABI builds (e9f256f) fix(ui): conditional safe-area insets padding on mobile (1182f0e) refactor(transfer): CircularRing component animation fix (944572b) chore(android): drop x86 and x86_64 release APKs, keep universal+arm64+armv7 (34ada0b) Download: AltSendme 0.4.1 | ARM64 | ~9.0 MB (Open Source) Download: AltSendme for MacOS | Android Links: AltSendme Home Page | GitHub | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • Why Delta Chat is the best decentralized messenger you have probably never tried

      By zikalify · Posted

      You are mostly right about the ephemeral nature of it. As I mention in the article, if you dont add a second device or take a backup of your account before uninstalling it, then yes you will lose access to your account. That said, in terms of actual user experience when you sync multiple devices your message history carries across and there's also a Saved Messages chat like there is on Telegram to send messages and attachments between your installs. But yh, what you point out are correct and its not trying to emulate Messenger or Telegram.
