I’m curious how you’d characterize yourself then

It’s not a meaningful contribution. Judging someone in person, sure. Judging someone when you have a platform people pay attention to, yeah. Random comment on Lemmy? No one gives a shit. I fully recognize my own pointlessness in all this, especially this far down in the comments.

My mistake. I believed you to be proposing a solution to the evil proposed. Not idly judging people with no meaningful contribution toward making things better.

You seem to believe that I think it a justification for evil. I do not, people should not do such things and they are shitty people for doing them.

I’m saying that the idea of some good people doing the right thing fixing the problem is naive and doomed to failure and a real solution to the problem has to be bigger than the lazy “just no one be evil” proposition you seem into to champion.

No. That putting the onus of change on individuals is a losing proposition. The incentives have to change or no number of good people will fix it. I hear the French have had very effective solutions in the past.

It’s a big company. Someone’s going to play.

Oh yeah. It was a shit project. Fucking nightmare.

I did a little “is shit rotting in your fridge?, also inventory” thing for senior design. It was a cursed project for a variety of reasons, but even what we did was a stretch in terms of utility.

If only we had known that the girl that came up with the idea was actively detrimental to everything she was even adjacent to

You know that large groups can pursue more than one thing at a time right?

I was with you to the last paragraph. While dentistry does have a high suicide rate from what I remember, you’re making a lot of assumptions about a person whom we only know that their parents are rich and they did well in school.

That’s what they said.

The point is that, despite being in the same bill, they shouldn’t be. One is already covered in existing law, related to adult exclusive activities recognized as such the world over (porn for clarity). The other is defining a new phenomenon that has yet to be defined as being exclusive to adults and currently exists within spaces for children to the point of predation and is akin to existing child targeted products (loot boxes again for clarity).

Lumping even seemingly similar things is a bad practice that is more meant to poison pill bills (among other things) than actually execute legislative duties.

Makes one wonder how many could collectively shout back to fix this.

Faraday bags make great stocking stuffers.

Makes sense now.

If it makes you feel better, a random scrabble solver website listed it as valid. Didn’t cite the source but ah well.

I don’t get this one… Did the spelling of weeping change?

I’m pretty sure he’d skip weeping and go straight for the whip and upending of tables.

Yup. I switched to linux on my home computer and now the more time I spend with it, the more I pity my work computer for the cancer it has to deal with.

I watched it with a guy on my floor in college. First time for both of us. He was told before that that was the ending so we were both tearing up and he thought it was about to roll credits.

I am willing to not be angry anymore. I’ll be civil if I see you in public. But I am not willing to have a relationship anymore because while I hold no ill will, I also am unwilling to risk it happening again.

I was you. I installed Mint and the only issue I had was with a hard drive that was being shared by both systems (dual booting) that had all my games on it. It was a symlink issue.

Bite the bullet. The startup time alone is worth it.
