Also because, guess what, "non-violent" mostly just means white collar criminals.

There are people in politics that believe in representative democracy and seek to influence the system for the better.

They either stay local, are ground up by the system, or become corrupted by money and power.

They have carrots and sticks for anyone, especially idealists.

The issue is proving that it ingested the original copyrighted work, and not some hypothetical public copyleft essay.

I just run ADB.

It's a matter of time before he sacks it. Kinda surprised he hasn't already.

Does XFCE today look any less late 90s than when I tried it 10 years ago?

CEOs are almost always part owners. A large part of their massive "compensation" for all the amazing value they add to the company is usually given in the form of stocks.

"this may increase costs for the consumer" argument is flawed. It always implies they would have left profit on the table otherwise, rather than squeeze the system and everyone within it for as much as it'll give and then some.

I was purely commenting on Apple silicon. As an owner of an M4 MBP I should add. The best chip in the world can still suck as a product if it's held hostage in this fashion. 800 bucks is what Apple charges for 1.5TB added storage.

Hell yeah 800 bucks for a basic-ass storage option

Yeah it's survivorship bias. We remember the high-profile cases when things like this blow up, but the odds for that are pretty slim.

The actual message is the "... And feminists are hypocrite liars about it" part you skipped over.

Yeah it's just too much.

I'm trying to be more proactive about telling people exactly that, to give them a chance to adjust, before I've bottled it up out of misplaced politeness and need to cut off contract.

My sister deals with it all the time since she helps refugees who often can't get work permits, and are extremely lonely on a different continent where almost no one speaks their language. So they (maybe understandably) cling to the one person that does. I admire her patience.

Mark Hamill may not own a comb, but he does wash his hair at least.

A different definition of the term isn't a different worldview. Also, not immediately spinning every exchange into an exhaustive debate isn't a critical character flaw. Unlike being an insufferable ass about not getting the amount of attention you apparently feel entitled to.

Though I would take look at that poll about 80% of Christians being "essentially" Zionists if you'd link to it.

That's an insane number. Must be a very broad definition of Zionist.

Even technologically Twitch has always been shit. For all the hate YT rightfully deserves, I'm kinda glad they just said "ok we do livestreaming now too" one day and it works so much better. Simply so I never have to use twitch ever again.

I know there's a lot of Christians involved but how do we know it's the majority? Young Israelis are raised largely around Zionist propaganda after all.

I'm sure the judiciary is gonna take care of it.
