   Now we just need to install public safety microphones† in every home and public space to prevent the spread of disease. You are not against public health are you citizen? You aren’t hiding any covid patients are you? † AKA telescreens

   Because it disables a person that CIA has spent years and countless $$$ training. Since symptoms are psychological, there no way to even prove that you did anything.

   The point is that automation causes us to cede control to the machines which can be hacked, or worse abused. It is a transfer of power to whoever controls the machines. This centralising power can be abused in ways people can only imagine.

   I only really care about performance and Wayland hasn’t been very convincing [0] with no discernible improvement over X11. [0] https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=GNOME-Xo...

    So where are these Wayland “improvements”? A Wayland stack is “better” but has same perf as X11.

    I won’t call some of these reporters journalists, they are more like activists. They aren’t interested in keeping society informed, they just want to push their agenda.

    I didn’t realise we were here to discuss a solution (universal basic income). I am here to point out institutional racism and leftist hypocrisy.

    Case close due to lack of evidence is certainly not the same as > VC did something and admitted to it and admitted to being arrested for it

    That is a false dichotomy, they can clearly moderate without a political bias on what they claim to be a public utility. Yes I am claiming a site such as Twitter, that provides a public forum that anyone can join, has a moral duty to act li

    If you have free speech but no-one is allowed to hear it. Is it still free speech? How is this any different to “you are free to speak but you’ll be murdered after you do”. You’re still free to “speak”, you’ll just die after. Freedom of spe

    You might as well delete most liberal media as well since anytime they mention a crime being committed and they omit the race of the perp you can assume they aren’t white. If they are white they will shout it from the rooftops. I watched Mi
