I'm point out establishment liberals that ARE listening to progressives, or are progressives themselves.

Because you're cherry picking people to be "establishment liberals."

Bernie sanders exists. AOC exists. Etc etc etc

And then the trolley cross track drifts and murders six people while the third party voter feels smug and self-righteous about 'doing the right thing'.

The time to prevent the construction of the trolley, to prevent people from being kidnapped from their homes and tied to trolley tracks, is every time other than the election, so your election options are the 'Not Murdering People With Trolleys' group.

During the election, you minimize harm.

And for everything else, you push for improvements.

The time to suddenly pull a principled stance about Trolleys out of your ass is not ten seconds before your inaction kills people.

You need to care before the trolley is barrelling down the tracks.

He made $12000 off each fired employee.

What? FF14 is currently running laps around wow's sub numbers, wow hasn't been the most active MMO available since before bfa and the bootlicking cratered it.

In programming, this is called 'Rubber Duck Debugging.'

The televangelists, in this case, were the rubber duck.

Yeah, you enjoy your day and your strawman arguement you 'won' against as well.

Also, c’mon, their criticism of this decision in the sentence just before it heavily implies that.

That's literally not how that works, and you even agree in the paragraph above this one. Why are you even arguing about this?

As for twitch's working conditions, it's a company ran by amazon, with management by amazon, so it has a lot of the same problems. From what I understand, the hours are shit, everything is a metric that's impossible to meet, you're constantly at risk of being laid off, a lot of the management are jackasses, and it's very much a bunch of little fiefdoms trying to flex their position and abuse any amount of power they can.

Like, I can sum it up as simply as "Know how terrible twitch mods are? Imagine working for one."

Not quite as bad as the conditions working in an amazon warehouse, sure, but still not something anyone should have to put up with. Regular inhuman working conditions with a focus on gaslighting and abuse, as opposed to an amazon warehouse's egregiously inhuman working conditions which are focused more on physical abuse.

They're talking about the working conditions in general, which are indeed deplorable. They're not saying this specific act is proof of it, or even an example of it.

Reading comprehension, dude.

Nowhere. Nowhere was it acceptable.

If they did acceptable things, they wouldn't have been republican in the first place.

Because none of those emulate current generation systems.

People act weirdly entitled about Nintendo product, throw shitfits when Nintendo reacts exactly like Sony or Microsoft would to them doing the same thing, then act extra hurt that Nintendo did it.

If they're going to try to steal it anyway and cry regardless, why wouldn't you try to fix it? It's not a zero sun game

I keep seeing this all over the place and not once has it ever been sourced. Frankly this just screams of more epic games astroturfing to make people think valve bad

Yes, absolutely. Constantly, in fact.

Rust the language is great.

Rust the community makes me hate rust, never want anything to do with it, and actively advise people not to use Rust. Your community is so, so important to a programming language, because that's who makes your documentation, your libraries, fills out the discords, IRC, and mailing lists. As a developer, any time you're doing anything but rote boilerplate zombie work, you're interacting with the community. And Rust has a small, but extremely vocal, section of their community that are just absolute shitheads.

Maybe in 5-10 years when the techbros stop riding its' dick and go do something else will Rust recover its reputation, but for now? Absolutely no.

Google is spending a lot of cash to make Firefox look bad so people are unmotivated to change away from Chrome when manifest v3 is fully rolled out.

Servers, and workloads are various- DNS, ntp, databases, a few websites, internal servers running code/apis/etc for internal processes, etc.

As someone who has strong opinions on this, and not only has a job but has a job related to exactly sort of thing.... We use freebsd.

Specifically to avoid shit like systemd, and other questionable choices forced down people's throats by idiots who can't stop touching things that work well because they didn't invent it.

Because it's cheaper than actually implementing working anti heat instead of just stealing control of your computer and leaving gaping vulnerabilities on it.

After all, why would they care? It's not their computer.

Except for the fact that it's now invasive as hell and trying to monitor/sell everything on your computer after the rewrite. We had to ditch teams after the rework because it wanted to phone home to dozens of IPs with information about our computers and actions.

The high score was blocking 112 outgoing requests with personal data in a single 1 hour call. (We have network connections locked down on our computers using Little Snitch).

Absolute madness and frankly every single person involved in Microsoft Teams should be thrown in jail for espionage and stalking.

Well, yes, because it seems like every time we register, a few months later the Republicans wipe out our registration again.
