I totally agree. I have mad respect for Linus for the work he's done and the immense amount of retardation he's had to sift and fight his way through.

I have very little respect for the people critiquing his behavior while contributing nothing of value themselves.

Hey man, just because you don't like it doesn't mean it's never true.

Feels like we're getting an increase in US military aviation accidents. I wonder why that is.

I'm guessing it has to do with culture. This generation simply doesn't take the responsibility of flying something as dangerous as a helicopter as seriously as previous ones.

Client-side anti-cheat has always been a scam to offload server processing onto client machines.

This results in worse cheat detection and wastes client resources, but companies like EA can spend less on servers.

We can start by stopping aid to Israel. They have enough wealth to fund their own genocides.

They have a fucking Intel fab.

Reading is so important. It should be free and accessible to everyone.

Yeah, crazy how people on both sides of the spectrum feel they can cast judgement without evidence or an investigation.

I mean yeah, the entire point is to maximize profit.

I was just curious if this was an inflated price due to "intellectual property rights" associated with the drug, which it appears to be.

I wonder how much it costs to actually manufacture. I feel like more people should understand that before they accept paying $8k or even $800 for a drug.

So, what exactly about this drug is hard to manufacture? Is it solely the "intellectual property" rights associated with it?

Or does it require some rare materials or difficult manufacturing process?

Conservative women are fine as hell, but I see your point.

@gedaliyah@lemmy.world said there was video evidence, so I'll settle for that. He hasn't shared it yet, though, despite getting very angry when someone said there was no proof.

Makes me dubious about there being any proof at all 🤷

🥱

What a shitty tagline. What have I been doing these past few years, lol?

It was a good move when people had no idea what they were doing and needed defaults to get started.

No joke, I'd be way more willing to pay for stuff if business were open about their expenses.

Fun fact: Steve1989MREInfo uses all of his original music for his videos.

How is this news?

It's literally a blog post.

He has a point, but it's not really limited to trans people.

Mental illness in general seems to be revered among this generation, for some reason. I had to make some decisions about what sexes to include in my app, and I just went with 'male, female, and other.' I know that's going to piss some people off, but they can just deal with it.

The amount of additional work required to add and maintain a list of genders just isn't worth it. Thankfully this is mostly an issue in Western culture, and my app is worldwide.

People with an agenda expect you to bend over backwards to support that agenda because they care more about their agenda than what you're actually doing.

I don't think he should be banned, but yeah blocking him is the way to go.

That's what the feature is there for.

So what word would you use to describe if they are forced vs. choosing? That's what I'm referring to. It has nothing to do with the law. It seems you're really focused on the legal definitions, which change depending on the jurisdiction.

is no harder to prosecute than any other crime.

I don't agree with that, but I'm also not a criminal justice expert. It seems to me that investigating rape requires actual... investigation. People need to ask questions and learn about very specific relationships in order to paint a clear picture of what's going on. Not always, but if it's easy to find evidence then it's hard to avoid prosecution.

Perhaps private investigators would be better for proving rape allegations. They can scrounge up the evidence and present it to the public so the DA can file charges. I just don't see an incentive for cops to play the role of investigators when they can just drive around and focus on more 'obvious' crimes.

The very fact that you are here dismissing the experiences of women is misogynistic.

When did I dismiss anyone's experiences?

Those crimes... they’re responded to very seriously by law enforcement

It depends. My car was broken into and I didn't bother reporting it because I figured the cops wouldn't do anything about it. Same goes for all my friends.

I can see how misogyny can be the reason for ignoring evidence and testimony. I was mostly curious what you thought prevented cops from seeking the evidence in the first place.

Yeah, I gotta go rub one out.
