No no, you have a point and I agree. We admit too many viewpoints as potentially valid when these points do not agree with facts. For example, it’s ridiculous to consider the question of the existence of climate change as a topic of debate. Instead, it’s a scientific fact that human-caused climate change is having an impact on our world. To seriously consider points of view that ignore facts (outside of perhaps artistic merit) is not a productive use of our limited time.

I do think there is some flexibility in the interpretation of facts, but to discard objective truth entirely is to me a rejection of the scientific method, and that does not lead to a desirable future for humans. It is to discard the merits of human progress in general.

Now, lately a concerning portion of my fellow citizens have expressed that they do not fundamentally believe in improvement, but that’s another topic entirely.

It was spectrum Internet. Charter communications.

On the bright side two more years and it falls off their report anyway. It would be a mistake to pay it at this point.

I kept the receipt because I expected them to be so incompetent. Good luck.

I just want to say thank you for your take. I’m not smart enough to intelligently discuss these issues, but it pleases me greatly to see great minds thinking hard about Lemmy.

👏👏 nicely done! Bravo!

Words have meaning. This irks me.

Is this safe?

Do I want to download my OS from someone nearby?

Doesn’t look like it’s hunter2.

It would have to be written by sane people.

It will be double dead with the shift toward digital games over physical copies.

Language is constantly evolving. There is no clear line. New words are added, meanings change, and it depends on the intent of the speaker too.

However as a mater of practice I choose to never assume it has been reclaimed. It’s always possible that someone hasn’t received the update.

I mean, he’s a billionaire. I guess there’s big money on propping up totalitarian regimes.

Promising to declutter their rights

Love it

I understand it’s very similar to how people get wrapped up in a cult.

Charismatic leadership/ideology and exerting top-down control in much the same way cults operate.

“Mistakenly”

Surprised not to see meta-classes or package management in the meme.

EDIT: clarification

No, it’s not coming back like the title indicates. This is by zero of the original people and none of the original code. It’s a clone, of which there are many better ones, as the article content explains.

This is a scam abusing a legal loophole (sniping the trademark) to sound official.

Perhaps! I’ve always found that people who participate in the HOA Governance are the kind of people who can’t mind their own business.
