They said they watched him speak. The image they built must be made of that footage then, no? How much closer do you want people to get to the source?

The important thing about these statements is not that one time he said something that people can cling to. It's that these statements are the essence of what the man was all about. He built his career, and a literal empire around this

I agree, I misspoke. It's not the literal interpretation, it's the interpretation of what was being said, in the context of the speaker.

>He’s saying empathy as it is used now, is used to excuse evil What he said: "I can't stand the word empathy, actually. I think empathy is a made-up, new age term that — it does a lot of damage." If he genuinely meant what

Being transgender is not relevant to shootings, but there are voices that are trying to make that happen. My opinion on why it gained traction: the group is already marginalized, is part of a larger, also marginalized group (lgbtq community

It's not an uncharitable interpretation, but a literal one. Even then, I can see a world where we could let it go, because people sometimes just misspeak, public setting or not. But in this current case, the speaker's political ba

To attack at an open debate event like this is an attack on democracy itself. Discourse should never be discouraged.

It's not a loaded question in itself, as much as a direct question to counter the anti-lgbtq propaganda that is being pushed. This question didn't start a narrative, it is asked to point out that an existing narrative is intention

I'm inclined to agree. Even if people get worked up on the pregnant man emoji or whatever, it's not like anybody is forced to use any of it.

It is, because if you think about it, it's a top-down approach to something intimately integrated into most everyone's lives - into engineers' lives for sure. As it's top-down, it will be applied to everyone (to an exten

Yes. They don't even release a baseline font themselves, it's all up to the people who create fonts to create the drawings. This is dissimilar to how for example the Alliance for Open Media works, where they create the spec, like

Corporations didn't invent "them", but they definitely control them. Never mind the consortium, it's the corporations themselves who actually create the drawing that we see. And they definitely also created the typefaces

They look very different than their counterparts constructed from text. Also, many of them cannot really be constructed with regular characters. People also have been adding smileys to their communication as early as the 1700s.

I'm in Europe. Hungary though, mind you, not the fancier part of Europe. Trains here are late, sticky, and lawless.

I'm one of these "holdouts". My gaming setup is Windows 10 21H2, so EoL is in 2027, I'm good so far. Then I'll either proceed to the IoT version, pushing the EoL into 2031, or upgrade to Win11 LTSC, whichever seems

The video moved something in me. I feel I hate being put down a bit too much. (Being made feel stupid, small, inadequate). I mostly counter this not by facing the problem itself, but by overpowering myself in another context - in games, via

It all hinges the many interpretations of "time". For example, this comment takes 5 minutes from me, during a transition between two larger tasks. The gaming I described though is different. I don't even start a game if I don

Yeah, I play with my friend and we had good luck with the castle placement. First castle was of course in the first zone, and when we proceeded into the second, we settled in basically the very center of the map, a bit toward the top. That

Yeah, I hate that shit as well. It's one of the reasons why I feel no satisfaction after beating a boss. I had so many experiences where they have pulled a "Somehow, Palpatine returned" that I just don't trust the happin

Yeah... you're right. Ultimately it's not that my time is precious, it's that I get no satisfaction of beating a boss. I hate how overpowered are with scripted stuff, for example, and how they break most game mechanics introd

Same for me. I appreciate stories and standard gameplay loops more than bossfights. I did stumble upon a game where I enjoy the bossfights though - in V Rising. There is a TON of bosses in the game, but the game is so full of quality of lif

Same here. I also "watch youtube" while doing chores, and the screen is on all the time, because while I mostly listen to the voice, sometimes they show things that I want to see immediately. A second use is that I'm monitori

Email and messages is the very few notifications I enabled on my phone. Reason is simple: I get very few of them, and most of them are either important, or if not, I appreciate knowing about it more than not knowing about it.

Guilty, I never have been! But, if you contrast it with a hackathon, the objective of the event is the showing off part, not the preparation part. Prep is at least months of work. Whereas the point of a hackathon is to create somethere duri
