Risk management is hard.

An instance tag search. Big hype.

The name of that bank is literally just “Moneybags”

:c

That… Is so incredibly disruptive mentally and emotionally. It’s like being slapped in the face with a fish the size of a truck.

I can’t believe that actually helped at all. Holy shit.

Now THAT is a meme I haven’t heard in a long time.

“Capitalism is paywalling life.”

It starts out that way, but regulation always fails and things get worse. The scientific method is young, most inventions were stolen and excessively exploited wayyyyy past what’s ethical, and the standard expectation for level of exploitation is exponentially approaching dystopia. But at least capitalism will save us! (Good luck!)

Tw: rape

You realize that, capitalism, if left EVER unrelated, will use power to endlessly underregulate itself and just gain more power?

This is like saying “firing a gun in my mouth doesn’t kill me as long as I live”. Sure, it’s true I guess, but it’s also so, so inherently wrong.

I’ve been trying to do what you’re doing now for so long. But in reality, you have to take a look at what capitalism really is: it’s a form of power designation that designates that power with the powerful, or pedantically, with capital, but it’s the same thing, for all intents and purposes. And THAT is an unbalanced system from the get-go, right off the bat.

It’s also like saying “slave systems are SUPER productive!”. Like, sure, they are. But they’re also incredibly destructive and prevent a lot of other things from happening.

It’s also like saying “a lot of sex happens when you rape somebody”. Sure, yes, I guess that’s technically a true statement. But… It’s an unwanted power imbalance that hasn’t accounted for what would have happened to the victim OR the rapist had they not raped somebody. The rapist could have developed into a normal human being and even fell in love or had a lot of consensual casual sex, and the victim could have stayed not raped and been perfectly happy progressing through their life not raped.

It’s just such a half baked, biscuit brained thought and statement. You literally cannot compare our tech right now to the past because technology typically progresses exponentially ANYWAY. You cannot know what would have happened or what would happen if not capitalism, because we’ve had nothing BUT it for basically all of human history. Every time we even want to try something else, capitalism LITERALLY attacks it with everything it’s got and refuses to ever let up until there’s nothing but ashes, and a lot of those places are capitalist. Native Americans? IMPERIALISM BECAUSE OF CAPITALISM.

Greed kills selflessness every time in every experiment as long as it exists and is given the smallest chance.

Capitalism is cancer; it just mindless destroys everything in it’s path, along with itself, only existing and leeching as long as its host stays alive.

You gotta read some more books and history.

Ouch my sides. From laughter though, I don’t want to increase my premiums.

“galaxy”

Let’s be clear: it’s a very good browser, very HTML5 compliant, and perhaps one of the best browsers…

…Assuming you don’t care about insane amounts of spyware - AND not having a lot of really cool browser add-ons (those having spyware and memory leaks is a separate topic, but I want to acknowledge these problems).

Edge makes more calls home per second than any other piece of software on my computer. I looked at my live log and it was a literal stream. Nearly every single action you do is tracked and sent… (waves hands confusingly up in the air in circles) …somewhere. Likely Microsoft, but I really don’t know.

Almost all of Windows is like this too. I hate it so much. There’s just no great way to have nice things right now.

Proof?

Edit: I used to use it years ago and somebody I know is considering switching from Chrome to it and I’ve not heard anything about this.

My God. Multiple times I’ve been on that screen in the past. But every time, I’ll have no idea how I got there. I’ve tried to get back, but the best I had was on a magazine’s page at the very bottom.

Thank you for showing this.

My opinion? This is AWFUL design. That a second settings button is THERE is unbelievable. Maybe I’m not hip to how the fediverse exactly works, but this doesn’t feel like the right route to that stuff.

I don’t think this is unique to any religion.

Religion is all inherently centered around trust in falsehoods. They mix it with normal philosophy, But due to the way our brains and imaginations work in relation to fear and tribal survival instincts, they get jumbled up, and the philosophy stagnates the same way the belief in imagined things does.

In other words, I view all religions as literal cult practices of irrationality and fear. Varying levels, for sure, but it’s the defining trait of religion.

That being said, as long as those people practice modern respect for others’ autonomous free wills, I don’t have a problem with them. I just also think that the defining trait of religion is conducive to not doing that.

Oooooo… Yes that’s it. Thank you. That’s a good protip. I’m assuming that’s a setting that I probably turned off while trying to make the the All page be more compact.

Edit: I don’t know where that setting is. It’s not in my profile settings.

I’m on the android chrome kbin app, annnnnd i think you meant to embed that? But lol… For me it’s the literal exact same bluetext hotlink

Just say smith.

Religion is just slow to adapt to uh, reality.

The Church of latter Day saints is just newer by a thousand or so years.
