1. "Too" Broad, which raises uncomfortable questions about non-human intelligence and how we as humans treat them (see: whales, elephants, octopuses/cephalopods)
2. Too narrow, which again raises very uncomfortable issues about who and who does not qualify as human, and what we do with them.
Put in other words, it's more an issue of ethics and morals than it is definitional.
Post a shitload of bad faith attacks and slander. Not as a root comment. You don't have to actually relate to the parent at all, you're just trying to get your talking points out there. If someone calls you out? Gish gallop never actually addressing their comments. It's another opportunity for you to spew whatever bullshit you want.
If they follow you around and get more engagement/up votes? Block them. Now you are free to continue to post whatever BS you want without any of those pesky fact checkers.
1. Provide security LTS for critical software as-purchased. If you bought Win 7, you get it. No forced upgrades.
Or
2. Force release of source code if not providing LTS. You don't want to support it fine. But don't block people from what they bought.
Pipe dream and wildly expensive to corps but hey they don't give a shit about us anyway.
So of course they figure they can insert ads for their own shit, make it a Bing website search, whatever. People don't want fucking an internet search. They're looking for things on their computer.
So it's native to the new world, but not native to North America?
Anyway, 1500s is when they came to Europe, so maybe they did enjoy a good turkey leg...
I solved it in a couple of ways:
1. Quit wow
2. Rock climbing. Get stronger, especially forearm and finger strength. I can't emphasize enough how much this helps over even carpal tunnel braces or whatever. The biggest single thing that stopped wrist pain.
You aren't arguing on merits. You're arguing on everything else. Why aren't we all still using C? Or B? Why isn't every website on good old PHP?
Things change because people want better or different. Saying "people already use it" is not an argument for something.
It's science, but ya gotta realize you arent baking a sphere in a vacuum ya know?
At least a gram is a gram is a gram everywhere in the world!
It's honestly what I miss the most about python: keyword args, keyword-only args, positional-only args.
What I don't miss is the unholy abomination of *kwargs...
Businesses can, will, and have hurt people and trampled people's rights in the pursuit of money.
A good makefile is really nice to use. Not nice to read or trace unfortunately though.
