  • The people you described as "today men" existed back then, too. We just didn't hear about it, because it was acceptable and the status quo.

    It was much more normal and acceptable to be homophobic back then. You hear about it more nowadays, because times have changed and homophobia is actually being seen for the disgusting trait that it is. The majority of people actually call it out nowadays, but they didn't back then.

  • I would say you are right, because all the playable legends are able to be bought with the free currency you can get by just playing the game.

    I guess some people could make the argument that paying players have faster access to new legends and legendary finishers, etc. I would say this is more like "pay to skip some grinding" than "pay to win".

  • Dude, you don't know any of these people or what they do IRL. To go off like this for no reason is just some insane people stuff. Get some help, and get off social media if it makes you so upset that you create little stories in your mind of what people do or don't do with their lives.

  • You literally can't go farther left on the political spectrum than communism.

    By the way, capitalism is not a political ideology.

    You contradict yourself.

    By your own logic, if capitalism isn't a political ideology then neither is communism.

    The fact that you wrote these in the same comment lets everyone know that either you are ignorant, or you are extremely misinformed on the subject at hand.

  • I think you misunderstand how money is made off of these kind of things. Companies like TikTok, and YouTube make money by showing you ads and collecting data on you to sell.

    A federated app, like this one we are talking about, is ad free, open source, and does not collect data on it's users for resale. Video hosting costs a lot of money, so unless users are willing to donate to keep it up and running, it will quickly run out of server space to host videos.

  • I appreciate the respect and I can assure you that it is mutual. I can completely understand where you are coming from, and your stance. "Harm reduction", is a good way to put it, because that's all it really feels like. It doesn't feel good to feign support for a regime that supports such atrocities, but here I am thanks to our joke of a system.

  • I agree, and it's complete bullshit.

    But I'm going to vote for "genocide and some safety for my Trans and female friends" over "more genocide, gay bashing, and forced birthing". It's our only two choices until there is either a change in the voting system, or better yet, a revolution.

  • If you want transportation with fire, ride a dragon.

    Username checks out. I see you everywhere, and your comments often make me happy.

    I definitely agree with you that cars are terrible, and I wish they didn't exist. Even though I'm a hater, I gotta admit the engineering and history behind them fascinates me, still.

  • When you break it down, yeeting a small piece of metal, accurately, up to a mile, through the use of handheld controlled explosions, is way cooler than just yeeting a pointy stick with another stick and a string. So, I am inclined to agree with you.

    From an engineering standpoint, firearms are so much more fascinating.

  • Hey shrub, FWIW I think the world is better with people like you in it. Take care of yourself, please, and I hope life treats you as well as it can. If you ever need someone to talk to or anything, this internet stranger's door is always open.

  • Yea, I'm a millenial, and I remember mostly only interacting with old Macintosh LCs in elementary school, and then Windows 95 and up after that. My uncle had an old Tandy computer running DOS, that I remember at least learning how to run a game on, but by the time I was interacting with a computer, regularly, Windows 95 and AOL were the most common thing.

  • Usenet is awesome, but the fact that you have to pay for Usenet access defeats the main purpose of pirating for a lot of people.

    Don't get me wrong, it is super cheap(60$-100$/year?) and worth it to pay for Usenet from what I understand, but as a poor kid that discovered torrenting out of necessity, paying for Usenet back then would've been out of the question. I imagine a lot of Gen Z kids feel the same about it at this point in their lives.
