You don’t like his tone, but it’s very important those two people went to prison. Should more people be in prison? Absolutely.
We’re in a worse situation than that now. There was some rule of law when those two went to prison. They likely wouldn’t go today. They weren’t just some “faces”; they were the primary people responsible for the crimes.
The murderers of Renee Good and Alex Pretti aren’t in jail.
People didn’t like Rule 1 being enforced.
Yeah, I know, you think Chinese hegemony will be so much better.
Could be a lot of things. He’s still oddly subservient to Putin, and mostly serving Putin’s aims. Could be that Trump’s position and power doesn’t extend fast enough to end Ukraine. (Maybe because the Republican Senate won’t allow it?)
It’s still good practice. Suddenly everyone is looking at that person to do the thing, and if they don’t the problem is more clear.
They can’t vote. They’re either not American or they’re bots.
High sec is the tutorial. The game is about organizations and politics. If you don’t get into that aspect of it in one of a thousand ways, you’re not really playing the game.
Also, when you know what you’re doing, null sec is safer than high sec.
I enjoyed the first run through of Factorio with friends, but it very quickly just became too much like work.
Like if I wanted to debug and fix a giant machine, I could do it on something productive.
It doesn’t need a cell connection.
Is that the one that uses peer to peer tech to share videos?
Is that more or less important to you than defeating Nazis?
Disagree. Could be true with their half-ass efforts towards climate change but I think with enough Hillary Democrat control we’d basically go back to the 1990s, which right now looks like the peak of human civilization.
Personally I think we can do better. The gains in efficiency we’ve made since the 90s, and there have been a lot, should mostly be going to the people. I think we should be thinking big with projects like real mas transit and freight, reducing our reliance on semis, and more local, green energy independence. I think we can achieve a $25 (2025) , adjusted for inflation min wage WITH a 32 hour work week for everyone.
I’d like actual progress. I’ll settle for the 1990s and rule of law. Neither are close to the actual fascism of Republicans.
I’ll vote for the first in the primary, and whichever of the first two win in the general. Kind of how our democracy works currently. Yeah, ranked choice would be better but for right now I’ll settle for one more reasonably fair fptp election.
That’s fine. I don’t see what’s wrong with that.
“Hey, I’d like to talk a bit about Project X. Is now a good time?”
Yeah, I don’t think that’s how it works. The people who do not have the greed at some point are content.
It’s a mental abnormality that causes some people to act like cancer and consume resources obsessively.
It’s also a consequence of low taxes on capital gains and corporate profits.
When those taxes were higher it made more sense to reinvest the profits back into your own company. You’d build a reputation and a structure that would pay out you and your family for a hundred years.
Now the dream is to build up a company just enough to sell it to some megacorp and cash out asap, with you and your family living off of investment money that only increases over time.
Half the job at ICE is to stand around as a deterrent. It’s hard to sabotage “go here and exist”.
“freshly produced”. You think it’s magic? Do you only drink from “freshly produced” sources as most of it goes down a drain?
No. They mostly do good work. I don’t believe the people going to the island were generally passing around large amounts of CSAM sourced publicly, like forums or Reddit.
I’m so tired of people just taking the vibes they want from words and ignoring the meaning of full sentences. It’s a form of illiteracy.
I get that we’re angry.
