Who says that? Or is it the case of making stuff up and being angry about it? Who calls you antisemitic for criticizing Israel for committing genocide?

rikudou ,

Source? I’m pretty sure it says something different and you just reduced it ad absurdum.

rikudou ,

I am paying attention and the only people throwing around antisemitism are people like you.

rikudou ,

If you don’t see the value in an independent media check, I’m afraid you’re beyond help.

rikudou OP ,

Oh, I own it on EA, not on Steam.

rikudou OP ,

Perhaps, not a fan of viruses though.

rikudou OP ,

The classical Windows viruses that run fairly well under Wine? Sure, the impact is not as high as on Windows but pretending there’s no risk is extremely dumb. I do security for a living. Your “argument” is just plain wrong and I hope I never get your PC on any network I am part of.

rikudou OP ,

6 hours to get it running. Not a native speaker.

rikudou ,

I’ve been there, now it’s been over two years where I’m pretty much Gmail free. It’s hard but it’s worth it.

Why Are Rap*** & Ped** Protected In Jail?

It’s actually sick, they already get a light sentence and also getting protected by the justice system while the victim they violated is heavily traumatized, probably for life. And what’s crazier is it’s happening more, I’m seeing it daily now every time I scroll, there’s another case. Just a few days ago a middle aged...

rikudou ,

Because next time someone might decided that whatever you did wrong is worthy of being served some mob justice. You might not like it, but everyone being treated the same is the basic principle thanks to which our society can work at all. Once you remove it, shit goes wild.

Remember, once you pass something like mob justice for rapists into law, it’s not long until someone who really hates something you like is gonna abuse it.

rikudou ,

And not as a Hong-Konger, if you don’t want your family on a blacklist.

rikudou ,

Not from the US, but Europe is basically worse than the US when it comes to EVs and I’d still never consider a Chinese car. They are not really known for following safety standards. Or any standards for that matter.

rikudou , (edited )

Well, that’s bullcrap. Science is about finding the truth, religion is about shifting the blame to someone else (and about controlling masses, depends on which side you view this from).

Sure, some people believe in string theory. But the moment it’s proven wrong, they’re gonna stop. Another important difference is that no one thinks it has any meaningful impact on you as a moral human being, while religiots base all their morality on what their fake god has told various goat herders and child rapists centuries and millennia ago.

Edit: I was not aware that “Law of Attraction” had some weird bullshit meaning. The fact that attraction basically means gravity in my mother language didn’t help matters. And the mention of string theory also made it plausible that the OP was a weird rant about science.

rikudou ,

Sorry for my rant, I thought this was about physics, not some pseudo bullshit, I haven’t heard about that thing ever before.

rikudou ,

MeeGo was quite good! And the latest Symbian wasn’t that bad either at the time, though I’ve heard the source code was all hacky (hence the creation of MeeGo).

rikudou ,

Try SailfishOS, it’s the spiritual successor to MeeGo! And it’s usable as a daily driver.

rikudou ,

Can’t you use VPN? The Android layer works very well, though the lack of fingerprint sensor support gets tiring.

rikudou ,

Looks interesting, but I’m biased against anything that has Mediatek inside, so it’s gonna be a no from me.

rikudou ,

It will, eventually. Not this iteration of “AI”, that one’s dumb as hell, but eventually it will.

rikudou ,

True, we’ll be probably among the last to lose our jobs.

rikudou ,

Well, at least in my country, only what’s above the ground.

rikudou ,

If it’s a block hole, it doesn’t really matter. A black hole is not more dangerous than a planet with the same mass, it has the same gravity. The only difference is that it’s much tinier. If planet 9 is a black hole, it’s so small that Sun has stronger gravity (and bigger mass), meaning it’s bound to rotate around the Sun the same way every other large body in the Solar system is.

Planet 9 maybe is or isn’t a primordial black hole and it won’t hurt you.

rikudou ,

Yeah, we should fuck proper investigations and just go with what the masses say! Because that’s historically proven as a good thing, right?

rikudou ,

I don’t disagree and I don’t think Israel are good guys or something. It’s just that saying “everyone thinks so, so it must be true” is one of the stupidest and most dangerous things to say and think.

rikudou ,

Maybe I’m getting too cynical, but my first reaction was “what else is new?”

This shit happens so regularly that I’m not even surprised.

rikudou ,

I’m like 80% sure that comment was sarcastic.

rikudou ,

When that’s you, are you really gonna care that you died beside a Tankie or a Confederate supporter?

What the fuck is that question? No, I won’t care when I’m dying, I will care every other time, though. And as surprising as it may be, I’m more often not dying than I am dying.

So I do and will care about an idiot who wants to steal the precious few little freedoms we actually have to support their red fash wet dream which will never actually work because it would be stupid little greedy fucks like them running things.

rikudou ,

I use Proton Mail for my primary domain and then addy.io for redirects to it. It costs $10 a year or something like that and it’s all I actually need.

Replying to emails is as easy as just hitting reply, the only thing that’s slightly harder is sending entirely new email (as in not replying) but even that can either be remembered, or the special email address copied from the addy.io app.

rikudou ,

From experience, when that happens it really ruins your day.

rikudou ,

Florida Man beware, Missouri Mother is here to take your crown…

rikudou ,

The elite doesn’t care, they only care about your money and they get them anyway. To them, you’re not a man, a woman or gender fluid. You’re money to get.

rikudou ,

That entirely ignores how the human brain works.

rikudou ,

I guess Rivian is a car brand, huh? I was imagining Geralt of Rivia trying to plug Roach in there.

rikudou ,

@Mistral Will our future AI overlords keep people who are polite to the current generation of AI as well-treated pets?

rikudou ,

@DallE Create a mix between Pepe the Frog and Snoop Dogg.

rikudou ,

Hey, let me make my own arguments, don’t pretend you know my answers.

rikudou ,

No problem, pal! So, am I treating AIs good enough to not be on their naughty list once they inevitably take over the world?

rikudou ,

Well, the one in power might decide that they’re spending too much on the managers below them.

rikudou ,

I’ve seen people and decided I’d rather be a computer. Is there something like a reverse blue fairy?

TIL the dev of Iron Lung, an acclaimed indie horror game, faced significant backlash over increasing the price from $6 to $8 (www.ign.com)

Then, responding to those who have said he’s “only doing this for the money", Szymanski tweeted: “Yes, no fucking shit. I make games for a living. If I didn't want to earn money from them I wouldn't charge money for them.”...

rikudou ,

Especially when you do it for free. I write a lot of open source and sometimes the comments are real “nice”.

A German state is ditching Windows and Microsoft Office for Linux and LibreOffice on the 30,000 PCs it uses for local government functions (www.theregister.com)

Schleswig-Holstein, Germany’s most northern state, is starting its switch from Microsoft Office to LibreOffice, and is planning to move from Windows to Linux on the 30,000 PCs it uses for local government functions....

Well, most things are bad from UX perspective, it’s just that people who use FOSS are used to that.

That’s why only enthusiasts usually use FOSS.

Before you start throwing around the five or so exceptions that exist, I’m well aware, but it’s just that - exceptions.

rikudou ,

Both work out of the box really well. Sure, Windows will break inevitably, but it’s usually few months before it does. Office looks really good. And that’s all that matters.

You don’t have to convince me, by the way, I’ve been using Linux for 15 years. But I’ve been in IT pretty much all of my adult life.

Until developers make stuff really good looking out of the box, FOSS will be still the ugly thing no one except IT people want to use.
