It doesn’t matter, the roll works in both cases. If someone disagrees be the bigger person and just agree with them.
- Comment on I Will Be The Judge Of That 10 months ago:
As it’s name implies, it’s a crime. As such it’s not legitimate but it’s also not a sin. It’s up to each individual a his morality to decide if he wants to be a criminal or not and it’s up to the society to stop criminal behaviors that have negative impact on it as a whole.

It’s a matter of taste.

- Comment on Why has the world gone to shit? 10 months ago:
Globalization. Exploiting developing countries, export jobs and environmental damage, hiding profits. No so long for a corporations had to be careful not to shit where they eat. Now they can shit in Asia and eat comfortably in USA/Europe. Everyone lost on that.
- Comment on I can't read it 10 months ago:
In my experience Audi drivers are the worst. Whenever I see an idiot on the road there’s always an Audi driver trying to out-idiot him right behind.
- Comment on [deleted] 10 months ago:
Just say “Sorry, I have some urgent work to do. We’ll talk later”. People don’t care, no one will think you’re an asshole. You can say it right after ‘hello’ or after quick exchange. I mostly avoid talking to people at work. I have my ANC headphones, sit at my desk and do my job/browse lemmy most of the time. But when people need help with something I do it fast and without needless bureaucracy so a lot of people know me as a reliable guy. After all it’s work. Be polite, be professional, do your job and you’ll be fine. And if you meet someone who’s fun to talk to have lunch with them from time to time.
- Comment on I went back in time to kill Hitler but instead we fell in love and our romance averted the war but then I was kidnapped back to the present and Hitler's broken heart made him do WW2 anyway. AMA 11 months ago:
Did you fly to Germany and travel back in time there or did you travel back in time in US and travel to Germany in 1940?

What if I bet on black?
- Comment on Why is AI Pornifying Asian Women? 11 months ago:
dystopian level of “prettifying” everything in the AI-generation world.
So like all the ad campaigns, TV shows and movies in the real world?

- Comment on Where have all the websites gone? 11 months ago:
Here’s what I think happened: we got used to shitload of content and personal pages couldn’t keep up.
My first experience with the internet was a dial-up model. It wasn’t cheap so we were basically counting minutes. In a short session I would check my email, download new winamp skin, open a link some friend send me and maybe visit some chatroom. That’s it. Back then each page was a gem because the content was super rare. For example I could download all the Monty Python sketches. Where would you find them if not on some obscure website? They didn’t have it in the library.
Then broadband happened so you could spend hours online. People started forming small communities and curating content. bash.org and similar pages happened. We started getting used to opening a link daily and seeing new funny pics and memes.
Finally corporations realized that to keep people on a page it has to show something new every fucking second and social media happened. Today we spend more time online than offline and refresh some pages every 15 minutes to see what’s new. Static, personal pages can’t keep up. Yes, you can create a Melisandre fan page, paste couple of pictures and start writing some fan fiction but who will read it? 30 years ago if I found such website I would save every single pick to disk and put a link to the page on www.myhomepage.com/links but today? It’s pointless. It’s all already on IMDB, one ddg search away. Personal pages are not the rare gems they used to be.
That’s were all the pages are…
- Comment on Why are so many countries in the world “developing” and poor, while essentially only Western countries have a high standard of living? 11 months ago:
Actually, you’re just reducing complex issue of exercising power over other countries to “colonialism” than trying to criticize people correctly recognizing this issue as “radicals”. Most of what you listed can be directly linked to western countries destabilizing other regions by military or covert actions, installing puppet governments, using their influence to steal resources and keeping other economies in check so that they don’t develop into competitors. No one thinks that it’s all because some country was a colony 200 years ago. Western influence never really ended in most of those countries and that’s what is keeping them down.

If you don’t want to give money to Bezos Pocketbook e-readers are really good and have good backlight that you can set to very dim level.

With Spanish and Basque you can work as a translator in Spanish parliament. Nice.
- Comment on I dont understand why I have to bring a bottle to the restaurant 11 months ago:
That’s nothing. I know a girl that asked a waiter to heat up her salmorejo in a microwave. The waiter said no. It wasn’t even a fancy place, just a normal bar. There are some things you just don’t do.

Who’s there.
- Comment on When on a diet, does you body have the same weight loss across the entire person including visceral fat? 11 months ago:
Why hypothermia? I thought fat is needed for hormones to work correctly and going below 4% will deregulate your entire system.

Yes.
- Comment on What’s next for Mozilla? 11 months ago:
Let’s face it, we lost the fun, early web long time ago. It was all taken over by corporations and when Mozilla dies (and that’s now if) they will finish locking it up and the only way to browse it will be by using official, ad filled tools. Best thing we can do is to prepare ourselves for the world without web (www?). We’ll still have apps and communicators and of course will still use websites at work but the days of ‘browsing’ will some day be over.
- Comment on local hunger games construction almost complete 11 months ago:
Wow, I didn’t realize the police in US is so dysfunctional they don’t even investigate felonies anymore. It’s like the government already collapsed.
- Comment on local hunger games construction almost complete 11 months ago:
Really? Police in US doesn’t actively investigate crimes any more? I remember from The Wire that they used observe places where they knew crime is likely to happen. Crazy that they stopped.
- Comment on local hunger games construction almost complete 11 months ago:
How long would it take for the police to get involved and protect the site for free? Or do you think they would just ignore it? Does the law in USA say that if the victim of the crime is a company they have to hire private security and police is not involved?
- Comment on Clicks is a BlackBerry-style iPhone keyboard case designed for creators 11 months ago:
I still don’t understand why PDAs are no longer a thing. Make a phone a bit thicker, add ports, thumb keyboard… I remember being able to SSH to servers from my Zaurus and actually do things using the hardware keyboard. Or SSH to my n900 and install packages there. With android I just lost the interest. It doesn’t feel like a personally computer anymore.
