The first three entries easily are the best RPGs ever conceived, that do not rely on the story to be good. They rely on the gameplay. Fighting random enemies is fun, instead of a bother.

Yes, you are submitting because you have to, hence nobody is losing sleep over dealing with it in an appropriate way. You wouldn't submit if you didn't have to.

They are a forced payment. To add insult to injury they are wasted on stupid things in a very inefficient way all the time.

You're using some words that I do not know if I understand them correctly, but let me just say that I personally think of rights as something that is either given to you by someone or taken by force and the only rights you truly have a

Taxes are pretty much theft at gunpoint, so I imagine nobody losing sleep over dealing with it in an appropriate way.

Unless Theseus sells his ship, it will stay his ship, even if he replaces every part. Still the ship of Theseus, as it is a matter of ownership, not of identity.

Well, in my book webpages are there to display mainly text and maybe an image. So the comparison seems useful to me.

I hate lazy-loading so much, since it never keeps up with my scrolling speed. So I first have to scroll down slowly and wait for everything to load, then go back to the beginning and start for real. Tried some methods to stop lazy-loading b

Then their data is gone. Now you just have to figure out what's worse for you. Somebody else getting your data or losing your data and you know whether encryption is for you.

Isn't it possible to just merge both, so you get something like this site right here?

I gave it a try in 2017. I could live with it being really slow, but it didn't have any useful results for anything, so I moved on. Really like the idea, though.

That depends on your definition of 'good', I guess. I wouldn't say that you have to fight evil to be good.

Emphasize on "good men". They're not evil for doing nothing.

Yes, but each movie is a single entity and the number is part of that entity. Just like with "street+house number". It's one entity, not two.
