No distribution, but he didn’t say no distributing a language parser to change it into rust and then microcompile a new executable on the spot.

Tell me you are having a midlife crisis over not wanting to change over from the programming language you grew up mastering without telling me you are having a midlife crisis over not wanting to change over from the programming language you grew up mastering.

You are the one discarding solutions to challenges, I’m just saying those challenges are not insurmountable obstacles. Reading is hard.

Honestly, I’ve called cops on cops before, no need for them to be black. One because they were an undercover cop who did not identify themselves adequately and acted suspiciously, second another (or maybe the same) undercover cop that was driving recklessly through the streets almost causing accidents without even a cop light/siren. I’d probably even call if they were in uniform and acted suspiciously enough so dispatch could double check. Cops are workers and they are human, they are not above you or illicit activities themselves, recordings have proved this. I would call, just not place the blame on them while just sticking to why the circumstances aroused concern.

And even generally, calling official numbers to confirm a situation is even something that is increasingly becoming necessary with the number of scams coming out. I realize racism was probably a factor here, specially if they are calling while cop cars are outside and there is clearly a crime scene being investigated, but seriously, don’t think this means you have to think twice about reporting suspicious activity if they are cops.

The US education system does teach US history and critical thinking, but applying it to itself is another thing entirely. The means are still there, so it’s no coincidence that there has been a movement to shaft the US education system an promote things like homeschooling.

Can confirm, HR is a joke.

If anything, they’ve done everything to excuse outright corruption in the US government. SuperPACs, bribes, it’s all getting legitimized. You can’t even hear reports criticizing civil asset forfeiture not only because the practice is so widespread, but now people are more concerned about even worse things. A massive and overcrowded private prison system being used as a system of low or non-existent labor akin to slavery? Last decade’s news.

Please, tell me how the US was founded as a revolution from tyranny and corruption again. Was that the policy when manifest destiny trampled on native American lives and left them in enclosed casinos? The US has always been about colonizers and subjugation, and even to this day continues to support modern world colonizers who, lacking the absence of modern civilization, rationalize the natives as militants when they oppose and make sure to place them besides terrorists. It speaks volumes to the sad state of global affairs that they are still the better option in terms of global superpowers to ally with.

The US compares itself to and lets itself be shaped by the lowest common denominator. Anything better, too socialist - but nevermind the small group of oligarchies power is organized around who do get the socialist treatment anyway.

And for the half of Americans that continue to support them without question after having done so, honestly. Half of the American flag should be drenched in sewage to reflect how they are leaving the reputation of the US within and outside of it.

It’s so odd that a platform that relies so much on user content charges as much as or more than network streaming services. The market hold is leaking into it (and out).

Where do people think the honey used to feed Xinnie Jinping comes from?

No, you go to the game to play a power fantasy regardless of how unfair and shitty that fantasy world clearly is because of how your status or your skills help you surpass it. The Elder Scrolls goes that extra step to give you the choice to contribute or fight that unfair and shitty to such an extent that people mod it in when the choice is not given, and the player does not even have to be aware of it.

People play videogames for the control, replayability, and often the narrative (which honestly was never The Elder Scroll’s strength), not necessarily to escape the world’s problems, problems which some games embrace. At a more basic level, games just need to provide gameplay and a player just needs to explore it.

There’s no shortage of games where you play as a jackass in a shitty unfair world. GTA comes to mind.

Is this the point into where I am supposed to revert into a circlejerk that proves I am what I was decrying against and go into other threads where other people continue to make the same observations I continue to ignore? Ok, see ya.

Woke basically applies to the bigots just realizing and getting worked up by things that had existed for decades. Either they’ve been dozing off for decades or have been “woken” up to it by propaganda with political undertones, and neither speaks highly of their mental faculties.

Although the thing about The Elder Scrolls in general is that it doesn’t hand hold you, so you are free to be a racist bigot and not realize it. They don’t force realization onto the player, you can happily adopt and become a tool of the point they are trying to criticize, you can willfully remain as ignorant as you would be in real life. In contrast to Starfield, where all companions are like the borg, of one mind telling you or nudging you into what you should have actually done.

Elon should have received additional fines for his taunts and threats, honestly.

Hmm, dumbass gives rant against green energy, I see rise in dumbass arguments against green solutions, hmm.

A true old god would have given him new legs and then sacrificed them, Araknatu Schmucknaktu.

The irony being that I actually face my challenges and you see insurmountable obstacles where there are none in defense of the worst aspects of the industry. But at least you are making your position much more evident, you just want to discourage EVs as a niche product that only works in urban environments that doesn’t work in rural or when the temperatures drop below freezing, and seem to be quite hostile to premises that could easily change and disprove that notion. Why, ego or something else, I wonder.

Don’t worry, my idea clearly isn’t meant for people like you, so don’t worry your pretty little head off.

Tell me you spend too much time in the Fuck Cars bubble without telling me you spend too much time in the Fuck Cars bubble.

Now you’ve made the case even dumber though

You continue with nothing but ad hominems.

I can share the sentiment of Schadenfreude though, as it is always nice to see so many cars getting wrecked.

See, now you have more in common with those that

would justify the guy stealing the tow truck and wrecking all those other cars

What did that mean again?

complete [fuck] car brain idiocy

Thank you for your help in making my point.

His comment isn’t justifying, it’s schadenfreude felt at the misfortune of a debt collector. It’s a sentiment as old as Robin Hood.

You continue with nothing but ad hominems.

You reap what you sow.

So much care about private chats, so little care about legislating shadow moderation and troll factories.
