This is literally what they implied tho, let's not beat around the bush here. They are disgustingly antihuman. Why are we shocked that tech workers also share deeply antihuman views like those of their masters?

What absolute bollocks. Human ingenuity and innovation is only limited by the greed of elites, not due to something as damaging as "IP." Good grief. All one has to do is look at how humanity has consistently progressed due iterati

It's the lie you have to tell yourself otherwise you'll have to reconcile with the fact that the US imperialism has been an enemy of democracy and to people around the world for quite some time.

It's their job to lie and defraud the public? Why don't you believe there shouldn't be consequences for lying and defrauding the public? Do you believe tech CEOs are above society and decency? Does their wealth make them immu

You realize not everyone works a normal 9 to 5 right, you honestly think every person shopping are unemployed? Are tech workers this deeply out of touch with normal people?

Can't think of a better poster child of complete corporate waste that benefits no one whose assets should be seized and redistributed to the masses. For the amount that Meta wastes on LLM spending you can pay for things like universal

No, this is how good standards bodies works. It require collaboration across nations, sorry but this is like small d democracy stuff here. What isn't good are corporate interests rat fucking engineering practices to pursue greater prof

Standards are democratic controls for democratic institutions, not "organizations" that are entirely captured by corporate interests. Absolutely despise how private entities have ruined software engineering by pursuing things that

This still ignores the FPS scene that fully existed before SK. Not saying BW wasn't important (I still watch the ASL and watching Soulkey play) or not on another level (any other esports tournament had the finalists arrived both on sep

Don't disagree, but Quake already had a competitive scene before counterstrike with prize pools + tournaments too.

Yeah, consuming corporate internet you'll get corporate results. The internet of yore is still out there, it's drastically smaller and requires more effort to find but worth it. Have to put in that effort tho.

Yeah the entire community telling devs for the last 15 years that open source contributions is how you get a job. Stupid statements get stupid incentives.

Probably for the best seeing how many literal degenerates and sex pests there are in the scene, what with Nintendo being a family company and all. edit: sorry downvoters, if you want to play with corporations you might want to remove the ra

Ask the person I'm replying to that used that phrase, it's mostly a racist dog whistle that is anti-immigrant.

You need to ask a real question because I have no idea what you are trying to say by beating around the bush, this is about the SCOTUS which is a US branch for the US government.

by shimman 4mo ago
Our entire history of a nation is the people fighting against the ruling minority of tyrants. Look at how fast SCOTUS struck down the civil rights act of 1875 (only 8 years). Look at how quickly slavers used the federal government to uphold

Citizen tourism is not a real concern; good grief why do people care about fringe issues that impacts no one instead of concentration of corporate power, consolidation of wealth, and decreasing rights for citizens?

Okay so thank you for avoiding the question, once again what does a higher income in the southern US get you that people in Germany don't have? People want healthcare, they want cheaper housing, they want high quality jobs, they want l

You're confused why neoliberals want to give out more corporate welfare over helping citizens material needs? This is literally what they believe in. This is what they have been doing for nearly 50 years. It's the entire purpose o

Things barely increasing after nearly 40+ years of being completely flat isn't the win that poster thinks it is, maybe if you're doped up on neoliberalism it sounds nice but everything else people need to survive are also increasi

by shimman 4mo ago
Okay and what exactly do you get for that income? What are the material outcomes for having a "higher" income than Germany? Because I know very few people that would openly choose to live in Mississippi versus Germany.

There is but you have to ignore the lived reality that Americans are struggling to afford healthcare, housing, utilities, education, and food costs all while the ultra wealthy are demanding the public invests trillions into vaporware.

How do you block specific fonts? Do you mean just the CDNs for like say google fonts?

What hogwash. Resistance is as American as the founding of the country, acting like there is a "right way" to protest is deeply antihuman.

Why wouldn't educated people be swept up by populism? They're human like the rest of us. Maybe you should stop thinking that having an education makes you a moral person, it just means you have an education.

Yeah but if you can't attack the workers and make them hate their lives, are you even a good capitalist? Didn't Milton Friedman die for our bosses right to stomp on our faces in the pursuit of profit?

Reminds me of that clip of Travis Kalanick, sexual deviant and harasser of women, talking about "discovering new physics."

Why is the onus on workers to make sure they are working 100.00% of the time? It's not their company, they aren't management. If you want them to cosplay as managers maybe pay them as such rather than trying to pit them amongst ea

This is a stupid rebuttal. Society is allowed to improve the life work workers while working. Just because you want people to personally suffer doesn't make it right. This is some old school puritan classism right here.
