Why would I take the time and energy out of my day to jump through hoops to prove my case. At the very likely chance that someone like you will refute it anyways and waive it off like you did with my comment?
Not worth it.

It stopped being about self-defense, if anyone ever bothered trailing what Israel had been doing.
But, go watch the prime minister declare everyone anti-semantic anyways over this.
They don’t know how to do that and never did.
It’s always been “Uhhh let’s have people make Firefox accounts, yeah!” When, in this day and age, the last thing people need is yet another account to keep track of.
“Lets get into AI, yeah!” Said no one ever.
Like, is it too much to fucking ask for a simple, privacy-centric, security (not overreaching), performance priority browser?
I mean look around how many forks of Firefox that there are out there, having to do the legwork because Firefox isn’t that much of the shit it thinks it is.
How defeatist of you, Mozilla. Whatever happened to your pride? Oh, it went a long time ago when you make a big deal about going 3.0 and how you claimed to have improved Firefox’s performance. Been a long time, but Firefox remains ever more the same as it did way back then, just cluttered with more features that weighs it’s performance.
Mozilla in early 2000s: We’re glad we’ve broken you away from Internet Explorer’s chains. You’re welcome.
Trump definitely will.
He is a symbol for a large part of America where people will look at and wonder ‘…why?’ even if they understood. Trump is just a symbol of everything wrong with America contained.
Vegeta.
Akira personally doesn’t like him, which may explain so much as to why Vegeta really never got too much of the spotlight as Goku did. Sure, Saiyan Saga Vegeta is an irredeemable prick but by Freiza saga, he actually developed gradually. His complaints of being second to Goku gets tiring at times but it’s a vessel he uses to actually keep going on.
It is because of him firing off that energy ki to Cell, is what gave Gohan the advantage he needed to finish Cell off for good since he was struggling even with Goku’s help.
I just like the progress of Vegeta’s character build. I like that even though he’s not prodigy he was lead to believe in surpassing Goku, he’s still second-best compared to the rest.
These days, all that dude now needs is a phone and probably a tablet. Maybe a laptop slung over his shoulder.
In a perfect world, every dollar we spend goes right to the creators who made the creation.
I would support musicians more if I knew my money was going straight to them. But a lot of the time, they aren’t, so I pirate out of spite against the labels for robbing the musicians through contract, how much they get.
I would support movies more if I knew my money was going straight to them. But a lot of the time, they aren’t, so I buy movies second-hand from thrift stores and not the studios themselves.
I would support games much more if I knew my money was going straight to them. But a lot of the time, they mostly aren’t. So I buy games dirt cheap and occasionally pirate.
And the video games industry can give a single fuck less about preserving them. Only bringing them back for a limited time under reselling compilations or as we’ve seen, those small consoles a few years back where only a hand picked library of games were pre-installed on them. They’re only brought out to simply make a quick buck, nothing more.
Dumb TVs. I love the option to turn it into a pseudo-smart TV with just a streaming stick. But, I’m always okay with a TV that just has the ports for basic things.
Out of those four, Cox is the one seemingly being the one who’s combative. The other three will fold easily and are complicit with any demand the studios have done.
So it is very hard to imagine, really.
Oh my god, yes.
I’ve even talked with people who’re like;
This…is an example sentence…just to tell you…something.
Usually you see that with older people not used to texting or someone who’s first language is not english. But you see so many of that, it makes you wonder. I think they’re trying to make it look like they’re processing their thoughts as they’re typing?
I don’t expect people to be Charles Dickens here, but jesus, I’d rather someone take their time getting a thought out than for me to see a poorly written draft of it.
Same. Wished it had just stayed as an idea. Wished it had stayed as just a concept to be used in movies, games, shows and books. Wished it had just stayed in it’s boundaries.
Capitalism makes me view the world and society as manufactured. Nothing I buy brings me true happiness, because it is just a means to survive or bring some bare minimum amount of comfort. Nothing out there to watch, play, read, listen to brings authentic joy as they once did, knowing how much capitalism has affected all of those mediums.
I’ve had to watch my dreams and ambitions die on the chopping block, because they’d require a level of financial stability or requirement I’d never ever get to see in my life even now.
They say you should turn your hobbies into a job. Well to me, my idea of a hobby is to enjoy and to escape. To monetize it, would mean I have to let that toxic friend be more of a friend than I am already at a discomfort with being my unintentional friend in the first place.
I already have a very jarred and jaded outlook on everything in the world, thanks to capitalism. I even despise the word ‘consumer’ because that’s a derogatory term to devalue people by, but we’ve come to accept it unfortunately.
And one day, I will be a victim of this capitalism. I am just one car repair or emergency visit away from wanting sweet release.
That’s some closeting coping mechanism right there.
I apply the rule to Temu.
They’re only good for small things like enamel pins, maybe some stickers and probably some everyday average stuff.
I start getting skeptical when it comes to dealing with electronics, clothes, any furniture and any other good that’s considerably higher value. That’s when I turn to thrifting in some cases.
So all that these places are good for is again - smaller stuff.
It works on stupid people not in the know.
But it doesn’t when you remind people about what Hollywood has done to it’s workers when AI was introduced. Then remind them of the Writer’s Strike. Then route them back to what the anti-piracy outfits want. Then have a good laugh because it is a good joke.
In a Trump-lead administration and Ajit Pai heading FCC, this totally would’ve been passed by now. I don’t like how this is on the table at all and how the decision could go either way. But I’ll take that trade off than it for it to be guaranteed.
But, one bill (PERA) is from a Republican. The other bill (PREVAIL) is from a Democrat. So, this is a bipartisan effort to fuck over everyone here.
