This explains our instance having perf issues.
Like Charles Manson, who was convicted of 7 counts of first degree murder, Thompson didn’t (that we’re aware of) directly kill anyone. However, Thompson’s body count was multiple orders of magnitude higher and he was given a bonus for it, instead of life in prison.
It’s the principle of committing wage theft, engaging in a contract (possibly verbal) and then keeping the promised compensation instead.
Lifetime plans are no longer available so, we’ve done you a favor and enrolled you in the pay-per-joke plan without your consent.
I wish I could have the day that I voted for.
Not to mention the fact that he nearly always renegs on “deals”.
There should be criminal penalties for that kind of shit. Letting management off the hook without any personal consequences just encourages it.
This grotesque display is part of a broader trend of class rage and Internet nihilism that justifies violence by turning innocent victims into scapegoats for moral fury. The permission structure for such ghoulishness is now fully operational. What were once the disturbing mutterings of the fringe are now public, performative, and proudly cruel.
I take issue with the author in this statement. I’m not sure how I feel about the murder of Brian Thompson but characterizing someone who commits mass murder with a pen as “innocent” is just incorrect. Committing an act that knowingly and intentionally causes unnecessary death for profit is murder, even when abstracted behind illegitimate claim denials.
This has been what adherents of the Accelerationism religion have been pushing for a while. They love to talk the talk but want other people to die for their utopia.
This is the same tactic used by the KKK to fight reconstruction…
It’s the same group of people so, shouldn’t be a surprise.
They’re being artificially propped up by billionaires to use as a bludgeon against labor. Profit is less important to them than destroying upward mobility and punishing anyone who thinks about unionizing.
Absolutely. One can also “gain” the third with extended isolation and chronic stress.
It is a way to go but there are still cons there. Guaranteeing memory safety isn’t free. You have to pay for it somewhere, either at compilation time, like Rust, or during runtime like in Go. Both are solid approaches but GC will cause problems in cases where the extra runtime overhead is not acceptable.
Personally, I block pretty much all exclusionary communities for a few reasons:
I frequently do not see the community name before looking at a thread and finding something interesting to converse on, partly because of my neurodivergences. This leads to breaking rules without intending to. Safer to block.
I sometimes have experienced RSD as a symptom of my neurodivergences and thus intentionally take action to prevent it.
I value inclusivity and anarchic social organization as fundamental parts of my ethical framework and find social exclusion based upon a person’s immutable traits incredibly offensive (the intensity of this is definitely related to my neurodivergences as well).
This is not to say that I don’t believe that women deserve a space where they have control and agency, especially with the immense amounts of misogyny on the Internet and meatspace. Nor do they need to consider my feelings nor any other man’s when deciding their rules and whether to be inclusive or exclusive.
I do, however, think that the hard-line exclusionary practices diminish the perspective, both for the participants and for men who could definitely use the insights into the bullshit that women have to continue to deal with. Lots of missed opportunity to build understanding and strengthen allyship. It also makes it easier for toxic exclusionary ideologies, like TERFs to take root (every group excluded makes it easier to excuse excluding another) while also preventing people who have not discovered their feminine gender identities from participating in conversation with other women in ways that could help them to uncover important things about themselves.
Anyway, enjoy and I hope that you find your space helpful to you, regardless of what myself or any other man feels about it. If the community does become inclusive, I’d definitely like to to know so that I can unblock it.
Maybe use satellite imaging or the like.
I think that they would be necessary still to respect the memory of the fiercely independent people and prevent corporate exploitation of the land.
Eh. It’s a fine distro (I use it as one of my boots) but I really would steer new folks away from Arch as a first distro. The wiki is phenomenal but it’s not very ergonomic for people who don’t live in the terminal (like me), even with Discover.
Fuck. My wife did work with Hanger 13 a while back. Really cool place and good people.
