I should have added a ‘/s’, but I thought it is somewhat obvious, it really reminds of all the ‘git gud at C instead of doing Rust’

It’s a dig at people who don’t want to switch to memory-safe languages like rust.

Now that’s a stretch, it could be anything (no, it couldn’t, although I think this may have application to some other pairs of languages)

To be fair, I’m using Linux, MacOS with Darwin Nix for managing it, Windows, and I still am not sure what exactly is an operating system, what’s the role of kernel and all of the possible system software is. Well, I think kernel is for hardware abstraction, but other than that ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Only third party sync, I use Syncthing for that, works great most of the time

1. What could’ve fit in a screen of text should not be a video at all
2. I save videos for later all the time, I just watch them never
3. If some information is not visual-first, and not entertainment, if it may be important to people and should be spread, it also better not be a video. Maybe accompanied by a video to make use of audience reach, if you already have a channel with an audience, that is.

Sometimes this is useful, though. Other times it’s infuriating 😅

If he does, how will you feel about selling out Palestinians?

I will feel same as now, so don’t worry

So, you admit that not voting for Dems you vote Trump, but you just think that it’s no big deal, because last time he failed to break everything he touched?

Edit: it’s a pity there’s no travelling to alternative timelines, I’d really love to see what Trump’s victory would lead to, but wouldn’t want to live in that reality.

The IP owner can print more, but if the owner is gone or legally unclear, then yes. Although I don’t think this was the real intention, because greed looks like a simpler reason and fits

will be ignoring further off-topic replies.

You failed a bit

The best situation for not losing the message would actually be a Harris loss and where various pundits and orgs push the message that it was due to support for genocide

That would maybe work if there were test elections and then the real deal a little after. Having a dicktator for the next 4 years (minimum) is a bit too much to send the message. It is just cutting off your nose to spite your face.

You’re right that there is a lot of good content, too. The problem is that a platform doesn’t care as long as you stay and watch, also you’ll need quite a lot of effort to find your own good content. So when I come to YouTube for something and end up watching more, I always know that I failed to YouTube trying to rip me off

If only I could get addicted to something socially acceptable in under 35 minutes, like doing chores, or at least maths

Maybe you’re right and it could work. I’m afraid there’s always a share of sociopaths this will not affect, but this may be seen as impossible to fix anyway. What I am also afraid of is that the speed of changes is glacial in this model, and sometimes people are bullied into suicide in the course of mere weeks

Yeah, trusting someone to make right decisions is hard because this trust usually ends up being betrayed sooner or later.

Regarding the first part, I meant that we as a community can’t put enough pressure on a bully to make em leave, if that bully is part of the community that supports em.

And what would happen when the community itself is built on hatred and welcomes hate wholeheartedly?

Connection to the state sounds like a much better reason than ‘being Russian or using Russian email address’. I understand why the internet ‘discussion’ mostly fails to notice this difference

Except for the countries that have anti-hate laws that are deliberately vague and specifically used to jail anyone who is disliked by the government. China and Russia come to mind as examples, but I’m sure they aren’t the only ones.

Besides hate-speech, I’m not sure how much should be censored really. China does a lot of censoring to ‘protect’ their citizens from everything, I’m not sure this would be a good thing even if that really was a goal.

And protecting children from traumatising content looks like another good thing to do, but under that banner I usually see governments doing whatever they want without caring about children past using their image.

With that I agree

What’s the joke about? Does Ireland block everything that comes from the Netherlands?
