Roast her back

No, it’s because there’s a lottery system that has been backlogged for decades. US immigration is such a bad process that skilled people go to Canada instead because the government there actually values those people.

Bro skilled people wanting to become US residents or citizens have to wait an absurd amount of time to even have a chance

You’re acting like plenty of politicians in the West wouldn’t do this if they could.

That’s really good to know. I still think my statement stands true if you exclude cheese and wine, and it’s pretty easy to find vegetarian options for many common desserts.

We’d run out of companies though

As a vegetarian in the US, restaurants here have gotten way better about dietary restrictions over the years. Yes, some places still do mislead, but the vast majority usually ask you and the kitchen about ingredients and accommodate accordingly.

Where did I say “oh well, nothing we can do?” You’re literally tying random arguments to my name.

Nobody here made the argument that what is legal is exactly what is fair. Nobody here made the argument that Nintendo being overly litigious is a good thing. The only argument made is that copyright law is flawed because companies abuse it and that lawmakers need to fix it.

He never said that creating an emulator was illegal. He said that Nintendo is legally in the clear to do what they did. In Yuzu’s case, Nintendo sued and both parties settled, and they reached an “agreement” with Ryujinx to take down its emulator.

As far as I’m aware, the Yuzu case isn’t settled law as it calls into question whether the use of dumped keys to “bypass” copy protections is legal under the DMCA. This question isn’t about emulation, even if it’s a step required for emulation to be possible.

Since there are many issues with copyright law right now, corporations have a free pass to bully people in a multitude of ways, and the Yuzu lawsuit and Ryujinx “agreement” are just new ways of doing the same thing. All OP is saying is that lawmakers need to re-create copyright and IP laws to make them more fair and make sense so that content creators and/or homebrew devs and/or fangame creators and/or emulator devs can do their work with a far less shaky legal foundation.

I didn’t know that Secret Service was mandatory for former US Presidents.

Windows is an option

Lobbying is a good concept corrupted by greed, as are many things in the US.

As someone with few USBs available, Ventoy takes me 2 minutes to flash, several minutes to copy a set of ISOs, and then any time I need it, it takes 0 minutes to have a working USB with some arbitrary ISO. Sure, it’s not up to date, but I don’t need it to be if I need to recover an install or use some random tool.

Police accountability is just the tip of the iceberg, though. A huge issue is the fact that a lot of minority history isn’t taught properly in US schools, and important events that define race relations are completely ignored. Using the term “master” to describe Git branches, for example, is just another way of staying ignorant and insensitive to those events.

I can understand that there are some edge cases where master/slave should still be correct as it is accurate, but for every other case, it’s still better to use a term that is culturally aware and technically relevant, even if it’s a small difference that’s part of a larger cultural shift.

The US may not have invented it, but there are still people in the US who are affected by it today.

Americans care about slavery for the same reason that Germans care about Nazis.

Something being accessible usually means that the results have a lower low-end and higher high-end, no? In the context of music, it would mean that there are bigger heaps of trash with a few hidden gems

Kamala is a cooler name

Long-distance calls being equivalent to local calls has been an incredibly good change.

Does the UK not teach media literacy? I went to public school in Texas and we were given lessons on basic media literacy every few years at a minimum, though I don’t think it was in-depth enough.

I get your point now. I interpreted your comment as “he was born rich”. I also didn’t watch the exposé until after I wrote mine.
