Why shouldn’t people use windows?
You can’t expect the average person to be tech savvy enough to use Linux and most people cannot afford a Mac. Especially in developing countries.
Windows is the best OS for the average person. Just not for advanced users such as researchers
All numbers are imaginary
They are a logistical concept, invented with the purpose of counting and calculating quantities.
Strictly speaking “Math” doesn’t exist in nature.
Circles are not round because of Pi. A triangle’s sides are not consistent because of the Pythagorean theorem. A thrown ball doesn’t travel in a parabola because of Algebra.
Math is a tool CREATED to understand natural phenomena. Though its logistical power is so strong that it can be stretched to understand almost everything that can be measured.
If a tree falls in the woods it vibrates the air at an audible frequence. Your ears absorb the vibrations and send a signal to your brain that we understand as sound. But the tree never makes a sound. The tree exists and interacts with the environment. Your brain interprets some of those interactions as sound.
You can think of the numbers as the sound. You can understand them clearly, but they’re just an interpretation of a natural phenomena.
people figure out the system
Only tech savvy people figure out how to go around this system. Roughly 80% ~ 90% of consumers will not realize what’s happening or won’t bother figuring out a solution.
Hell, even if only 10% of the consumers paid a slightly higher price the company still earns more by buying your data.
Statistics are on the side of the company. Buying consumer data is always the best strategy for them. The only thing that can limit abuse of privacy and consumer rights is government regulation.
Old people when they see a gay person: 😡
Old people when I point a gun at them: 😫
Your right to free speech ends when it turns into terrorism, racism or a call for a coup.
There are some things that should be banned, such as the twitter accounts that promoted the attempt at a coup in Brazil in Jan 8 2023.
These are the accounts that the judge asked to be banned. After Twitter didn’t comply they started sending fines and eventually outright banning it.
Free speech doesn’t mean you can say literally anything. It means the government cannot punish you for your political views. But they can, and must punish racism and anti-democracy speech.
Also, it’s a misconception that a decentralized service cannot be banned. In fact it’s not hard at all
Sure but in this case the judge is not censoring merely incorrect information. It’s written in the article that I assume you haven’t read
The judge ordered to remove the account of a militant group that attempted a coup after the party they support lost the election
This is exactly the kind of thing that should be censored. Anti democracy groups
Power Ranger goons looking mfs
Of course i would appreciate it if we stopped selling weapons.
The West is not perfect by any means. (and I noticed you skipped answering my question about dictators with EU support)
My point is that country leaders have limited influence. They can’t influence everything like you seem to suggest
Car guys are just the male equivalent of horse girls
My brother what can they do?? They put diplomatic pressure and sanctions in place but there’s nothing more a country can do to influence another nation.
There are US and EU sanctions in Venezuela since years. But they still manage to live in their limited space.
Saudi Arabia is an Absolute Monarchy. They have a king and all that bullshit. The king is a de facto dictator BY DESIGN. that’s their constitution.
What do you expect us to say?? “hey, how about you abolish your whole political system? Because you know… We kinda don’t like it”
I don’t like it either bro but it is what it is. We have to live with that bullshit. Unfortunately there is no solution to everything
Name a dictator that gets political support from the EU
Western powers are willing to recognise Putin as the ruler of the Russian Federation
“A European Union spokesman said the elections were not properly monitored, nor conducted in a free and fair way. The governments of the UK, Germany and the US echoed this.” -BBC on the Russian 2021 elections
This has always happened in the past Russian elections. The EU doesn’t push harder on this topic because they know these efforts won’t influence Russia
On Venezuela however, there’s a lot more chance that international pressure will cause changes. Maduro GTFO!
Do you mean that your sadness levels are consistent among all times you’re exposed to bad examples of this linguistic change?
Should it not be “constantly saddened”, meaning that sadness is caused often upon you when seeing such examples?
If this is the case, I can relate to that. Or should I say… it do be like that sometimes
What’s to see?
I wish people would see past the idea that millionaires are evil people (and yeah they are), and understand that the root of this issue is on the economic/governmental system that allows people to hoard this much wealth
Yes it’s dystopian as fuck how much money he’s able to make. But that’s not a result of him being evil or something. That’s a result of how the advertisement Industry works.
He’s just a guy that mastered the YouTube game and is doing what he’s good at. He could retire or take a more relaxed work routine and still be a millionaire. But he works a lot to make more YouTube content because he likes it.
I don’t like Mr. Beast. But don’t think he’s doing anything unethical
Doesn’t matter how much you bomb Mexico. If there is a demand for drugs there will be a supply. No matter the price. A drug addict will do ANYTHING to get it
Cutting the supply would only work if you’re somehow able to cut almost all supply for 30 years straight, until the currently addicted people die off or sort themselves out
To stop the drugs you need to stop the demand for drugs. Treat addicts instead of arresting them. And oh my god stop prescribing literal Opioids as “treatment”
The point here is not that this comment hurts trump in some way. But that it hurts democracy. It favors violence over reason.
Many believe that the world might be better if trump was dead, but on the other side, if assassination is an acceptable solution to politics then democracy is destroyed.
The people that are against Trump are also against fascism. And supporting his murder is contradictory and essentially hurts your own cause.
Choosing to be fair and respectful to your enemy is the best course of action. Even though it might be extremely frustrating.
No, it means “Sea to lake”
The sentences of the bible are written in a certain context. If you remove it from this context and try really hard to make connections, you can loosen it’s definition enough and distort it’s meaning enough to fit anything you want
IMO this Interpretation is straight up incorrect
This is a symptom of “If you want it hard enough, you can find anything where there is nothing”
but the fatal wound had been healed.
Hello!? There was no fatal wound. And it was not healed. The text doesn’t fit.
Supposedly god put those words in the mind of a Christian man 2000 years ago. He wrote it down. Several other people copied the text by hand. The original works were lost. When the bible was translated to english it was based on the copied content from other translations in German, latin, and Hebrew. No translation was made from the original language since there’s no source available.
Why is god so fuckeng sloppy with the text that literally represents his existence and the only path of salvation of all human souls?? (people who he supposedly love)
Oh yeah? I have a model train behind my back, what model is it?
