Still not even close to answering the question. I do appreciate your point of view.

That wasn’t the question. Please try to keep up.

Someday? There are plenty of people who already consider him evil. No need to wait for a mythical future.

Found the Windows defender!

If you are going to deny that typically Windows uses static linking and bundled dependencies I am not sure we can find common ground to have a discussion.

Oh mass murder is definitely happening, sometimes deliberate, and sometimes as an externality. I was insinuating you were suggesting mass murder to create social change. If I was wrong, I apologize.

I have not met many people capable of the nuance it takes to see incremental changes as a primary way to seek positive change. Most people advocate for violence because that can’t see a way forward and would be frustrated by small changes that would not immediately realize their goal. I think it is human nature to want to see immediate change, but that is perhaps not the best way to move society forward.

The world is not just sunshine and rainbows, but it is also not just pedophiles and baby eaters. It is a messed up mix of a lot of things for sure and I totally get your frustration. Our thinking is often framed by our experiences and what we have learned. This can often limit us to coming up with solutions to our problems.

I truly believe there are several correct ways to handle any situation and there are many possibilities we have not even thought of yet. While I am optimistic it is not because I lack an understanding of the horrors we face everyday. I like to think of myself as an optimistic realist, if that makes any sense.

I am very aware of the US’s many human rights violations not just against the world, but also their own citizens. It is not just police brutality either, the US locks up 20% of the entire world’s prison population, but has only 5% of the entire world’s population. Obviously something is very wrong when 1/3 of US males have a criminal record with a heavy leaning towards minority imprisonment.

I reject blaming the average US citizen for the suffering around the world when they suffer themselves. I know personally several people who have been shot and killed and also know dozens who have died of overdose. While my life may seem privileged compared to others around the world happenstance is not a reason to blame people for the world’s problems. Not only that, it is a poor way to connect with people and convince them of your cause.

I think you correctly identify greed and callousness as the primary causes of human suffering. I would also agree in a limited way that there are a lot of sociopathic people who call the shots so to speak. In the US this because Americans worship greed, power, and control. These ideals lead to the questionable results we get.

I think you have some serious bloodlust going on and I would examine this part of yourself more carefully. I do not agree the only solution is to clean the world of people you see as bad. This seems to be the very trappings you rail against.

Ah yes, human rights is an imperialist conspiracy. Spoken like a true apologist to human rights violations.

Also, the only way to rights is violence? Let’s just say your worldview of death and destruction is incompatible with human rights in general. I do understand your opinion is quite common.

There is a way forward, but committing mass murder and hoping your ideology will rise from the ashes is pretty farcical.

I don’t advocate for a utopia rather incremental positive changes to improve all of our lives.

Well you can disagree, but just know that there isn’t a single human right’s agency that advocates for capital punishment and you will be consider a human rights violator for supporting it.

I think a choice between life imprisonment and capital punishment is a false dilemma.

Capital punishment is a human rights violation silly.

Hey, if you cool with human rights violations and state sanctioned murder that is on you.

The CCP are the wealthy people in control. Those are some good mental gymnastics.

Typical Chinese factory workers have 10-12 hour shifts 6 days a week. Many workers literally live at the factory. Sounds way better than the US or Europe.

Murdering people isn’t the flex you think it is.

What do the rural poor in China think of their new billionaire class and their ever increasing wealth gap?

Windows is bloated, always has been. Everytime you install an application you are installing another copy of all the libraries that program uses.

I think now that precompiled binaries for Linux systems are becoming more popular, they will also start to suffer from bloat as well. While the universal nature of SNAPS makes them useful, they will inherently take up a lot more space.

Of course the big difference between the two update systems currently is most Linux systems can update all their programs together. I have always found using repositories way better than hunting down updated packages in Windows or having to let each program individually update itself.

There is a lot going on here to be honest and you brought some additional complexity into it by bringing up a dead person.

First, she doesn’t need trademark to sue companies for using unauthorized statements or pictures/video of her even if it is AI generated. This is called the right of publicity.

California has a law on the books that addresses your concerns around death and it is a better solution than trying to shoehorn trademark into this problem. I don’t necessarily agree with posthumous protection myself, but it is a better way to accomplish a goal.

OMG I didn’t even know this was a thing, lol.

I haven’t laughed this hard in awhile. Thanks everyone.

Her voice is not really unique in anyway nor are her looks. While she may not use this as a cudgel against anyone who looks like or sounds like her other artists will.

While I am not opposed to protections for all people, I am opposed to just the wealthy getting this privilege through trademark.

You think we are at a endpoint with 3d printing technology? As technology improves the ability to make better parts will keep increasing.

You are right, it is about control.

Anyone who could not see that Trump was going to extort business for his own personal gain was clueless to Trump and his cabinet of blackmailers.

Anyone of color giving support to White Nationalists is fucking insane and shows a complete lack of understanding of current US politics.

https://proton.me/blog/anonymity-vs-privacy

These guys are such clowns. They stop just short of saying anonymity is bad by saying things like you can’t use your logging if you anonymously log in (duh) and bizarrely you may be more secure without it.

"A good example of this is Proton Mail‘s optional authentication logs feature. Enabling this prevents you from logging into your account anonymously, but it improves your security by allowing you to detect suspicious logins (for example, a login from another country).

For most people, privacy is a great deal more important than anonymity’

They won’t provide it with their own service and instead push it onto the user. For instance, most recently they have been known to log credit card data. A company really concerned with security would not store this data on their own servers and there are practical ways to accomplish this.

This company makes its money on security theatre. I swear they are a honeypot for criminals actors and they know it hence why they downplay anonymity.
