Many of them aren't shitty. It's just the 10% or so of incels/creeps/etc that make the rest of us look bad.

You can if you emulate a CPU that does have an MMU. Someone has actually done this to get Linux booting on an Intel 4004. Another one got Linux to boot on a Commodore 64.

People who want authority over others/any kind of power should be prevented from having it.

Only people who don't want to be cops due to moral issues should be cops.

But we live in a system that rewards the worst of us with the largest rewards (capitalism), so this won't change until our whole society changes accordingly.

Not with that attitude

Ah, yes. Nazis opening up concentration/death camps in a foreign country and illegally shipping people off there without any semblence of due process (not that it would be legal even with due process, as death camps are illegal under the 8th amendment, not that this government cares)? Clearly that's just meant as a distraction from what the Nazis really want to do, which are tarrifs.

Wikipedia is a website

labor camps

Death camps if those satellite pictures are anything to go off of.

ICE Trump's Gestapo illegally kidnaps US citizens and other humans for the purpose of sending them to a death camp in El Salvidor, which, regardless of whether or not they are a criminal or even whether or not they get due process is unconstitutional under the 8th amendment, not that Hitler Trump cares about the law.

I don't know if you saw those pictures of CECOT with the pile of human bodies, but if you haven't, don't look it up unless you don't want to sleep.

Of course, this must mean that the minimum wage will increase by an equal percentage, right?

Right?

It's also totally possible to survive on a cross for three days and for someone to take you down while you're unconscious and put you in a cave.

Twice

Ever notice how Republicans all at once and very rapidly stopped talking about paper ballots?

Cartridges cost a lot more to produce than cheap, plastic discs or modern, SD card-esque flash storage.

I think the reference to weed stores is more about the lack of motivation than the milk.

Democracy isn't the problem; it's the money in politics, which is an intended effect of capitalism.

Capitalism is the problem. Capitalism by its very natire is a system of economic distribution where you have an owner class who control a working class via wages, where the working class will never be paid what they are worth due to the profit motive that the owner class has when it comes to the profit of their business. Shareholder capitalism makes this even worse, as the profit year-over-year must ALWAYS go up, as that is how stock price increases. It is to the point where shareholders sue companies not for losing money, but for making less money than they did the year prior, and they win.

Imagine an alternative where you could have democracy in your workplace (worker-owned coops). You would be able to hire and fire your boss with a vote. You will be able to determine the direction of the business, also with a vote. This could be the reality if we just forced all corporations to be worker-owned coops.

This, combined with a hard wealth cap and a UBI, will prevent any one person (or small group of people) from gaining enough power to buy a government, and the addition of democracy in business will also make business interests harder to corrupt as well.

There actually is a "hypervisor OS" called QubesOS, but it is not for the faint of heart. It's not exactly difficult to set up or use for basic tasks, but stuff like passing through hardware is more on the advanced side of things. I wouldn't personally recommend it unless you really enjoy tinkering or if you need max data isolation.

Unchecked capitalism.

You can sub for basically any cream of blank. Just think of something that goes well with green beans.

I'm shocked that doesn't work. Have you tried using Xash3D? What versions of WINE/Proton have you tried?

Only if it's illegal to begin with. We need to abolish copyright, as with the internet and digital media in general, the concept has become outdated as scarcity isn't really a thing anymore. This also applies to anything that can be digitized.

The original creator can still sell their work and people can still choose to buy it, and people will if it is convenient enough. If it is inconvenient or too expensive, people will pirate it instead, regardless of the law.
