Let's start with the Taft-Hartley Act, then move on to private property privileges, and then pause to assess.

How do you like cycling?

Protestants are fucking weird.

To be fair, transubstantiation.

Ironically it's gone up a lot since this meme

explodicle ,

The USA loses to people less armed than the USA all the time.

explodicle ,

It would be cool if somebody missing an arm could get a cybernetic replacement that looks and feels real.

That's the only situation I can imagine where maintaining a living skin is worth the cost. I can't even keep plants alive.

explodicle ,

It's not hoarding if it's only a little. Everyone who actually earned it themselves through wage labor is not hoarding.

explodicle ,

I'm doing my part! I've been bringing it up at lunch.

explodicle ,

What if you just save money for retirement, not property?

explodicle ,

Literal cash under mattress

Make sure it's all encrypted files so they can't compress it.

explodicle ,

IMHO all that matters is the difference between the two.

explodicle ,

It looks fine on my device, maybe it didn't finish loading?

Even if she did receive warnings, she's a grandmother who easily could miss one of the many messages on the car. It's just bad design.

explodicle ,

No problem, just buy crypto with PayPal.

explodicle ,

This doesn't solve the adoption issue, but you can use "stable coins" like DAI that are pegged to the dollar.

explodicle ,

How does that address web search and online shopping?

explodicle ,

You won't even hear about it!

explodicle ,

Everyone having this particular exact discussion is already convinced, though.

explodicle ,

Does the corporate HQ have a daycare like McVeigh's target did? At this point climate motivated bombings are more like French resistance bombings; there are no good guys in war.

explodicle ,

And that 4% just buys you a year before inflation cuts it back down again. Searching for a job from home is easier.

explodicle ,

I think you mean extrovert parasites

explodicle ,

It's a barely legal attempt to scare away people with disabilities, which scares me away too.

explodicle ,

That's an industry now? What do you guys do?

Trump was anti-Bitcoin while president, when his opinion mattered. And now that it's taken off despite him, he's trying to promise crypto users what Biden has already delivered. The SEC just dropped its case against Ethereum.

These are the exact same people who keep leaving their coins on exchanges.

explodicle ,

He was buying overpriced shoes, you see. Every luxury that I don't want is stupid.

explodicle ,

  1. That's not "being fascist".

  2. They don't necessarily have a low intellectual capacity, they're just barred from becoming cops if they score too high. The cops are discriminating against people with high capacity and that's not OK.

  3. The thing that is happening here is OK because they're class traitors and 100.0% bastards. You're licking boot.

explodicle ,

Read again but actually try to understand

explodicle ,

See this is what I'm talking about

explodicle ,

I prefer to tell people they're being foolish. Foolish is something we all do, and one can snap out of it.

Microsoft in damage-control mode, says it will prioritize security over AI (arstechnica.com)

Microsoft is pivoting its company culture to make security a top priority, President Brad Smith testified to Congress on Thursday, promising that security will be "more important even than the company’s work on artificial intelligence."...

You switching is like turning around a rowboat.

Them switching is like turning around a cruise ship.

explodicle ,

Hardware solution is the way. Then they need much bigger software to detect it.

explodicle ,

They're the same picture.

explodicle ,

After they dropped SMS support and called that a feature, now I can't wait for their hottest new bug!

explodicle ,

Actually asking, how has Firefox complied with American censorship?

explodicle ,

That might not be so easy for random schlubs who don't even know how folders work.

explodicle ,

You're calling this Russian censorship, and saying the rule should be applied equally.

explodicle ,

100% honest answer, it seems like you're maybe thinking something that doesn't completely line up with what you wrote.

explodicle ,

Clearly a moderate position is needed here. Let's start by repealing the Taft-Hartley Act.

That's why with modern payment systems they give you a code and you send them the money. Credit cards made more sense before cell phones.

explodicle ,

When you describe someone else's grievance as "someone you don't like" or "says something you think is bad", you're adding an implication that the actual reason is irrelevant. It makes it look like you don't understand the reason at best, or are deliberately minimizing it at worst.

"If there's a Nazi at the table and ten other people sitting there talking to him, you got a table with eleven Nazis."

explodicle ,

Just because you don't like my reply...

explodicle ,

Authoritarianism becomes necessary as you move toward the extremes because you have to coerce some people/classes to accept the system.

Do you consider anarchists and anarchocommunists to be extremists? Or authoritarian?

explodicle ,

I mean, that's why I'm here using a p2p alternative. Since Napster and Bittorrent, they've proven that the most reliable way to resist their violence is to decentralize.

I hate it when I'm accidentally defending the concept of private property. Both sides are the same, what do words even mean really.

A PR disaster: Microsoft has lost trust with its users, and Windows Recall is the straw that broke the camel's back (www.windowscentral.com)

It's a nightmare scenario for Microsoft. The headlining feature of its new Copilot+ PC initiative, which is supposed to drive millions of PC sales over the next couple of years, is under significant fire for being what many say is a major breach of privacy and security on Windows. That feature in question is Windows Recall, a...

So you don't think there's a straw breaking the camel's back?
