- Comment on just temporarily embarrassed billionaires, one good idea or lottery ticket from making it rich 7 hours ago:
I wish i knew, peaceful ways dont seem to do anything and violent ways can easily give the oppressors more excuses to make things worse, at least if you dont have good plans. At least it might lessen americas grip on the rest of the world.
Though then again, has any non-demoratic country succesfully turned things around? I dont really know if this is uncharted territory.
- Comment on just temporarily embarrassed billionaires, one good idea or lottery ticket from making it rich 11 hours ago:
if its really majority then things would improve, no? Politcans would get elected that make these things happen?
Or if that majority is powerless to do anything, then they should cry out that america is not democracy so loudly that other countrys couldnt ignore it, provided that this majority actually cares and doesnt just wish things were better but conform with the regime and choose ignorance.
Talk is cheap, actions are what matter.

- Comment on Do non-English speakers learn to code in English, or in their native language? 1 week ago:
much easier to look for guidance for coding in english instead of my native language, syntax makes more sense too. Though personally i would wish more stuff was properly translated into finnish instead of english slowly gnawing at it.

at least “designed to be deleted” part of it is truthful. Nothing else to be done with that garbage program.
- Comment on Just got arrested for a supposed DWI even though I blew a 0.0000000. Don't cops need to read your Miranda rights to you? I asked for a blood or hair follicle test and I was denied. WTH is happening? 3 weeks ago:

for every person who boycots there is ten who cry “i do what i want with my money”. there should be some shame cast on those who still support corporations like this.
- Comment on Can you explain like I am a child terrorism without the whole good vs evil schtik? My sister in laws kid asked me about it. He is 9. 3 weeks ago:
but if some group targets non-civilian targets, they will be labeled terrorists just the same. Doesnt matter if they are justified or not, unless of course the target is someone global leaders dont like.
“unauthorized violence” seems more apt definition.

maybe it works kind of like how water works. Water also sticks to itself, like how separate droplets combine very fast when close enough.
- Comment on Former Valve writer says PlayStation killing physical discs is no conspiracy: "You, the consumer, have made your choice, and the choice is for digital" 3 weeks ago:
well, having a physical disk doesnt guarantee ownership. companies can still leave critical things off the disk and require you to download them when you install, or there can be some verification system. And if corporation servers go down, you still cant use it.
What we need is all the files and data we buy to be fully functional and not behind any encryption or other gate, be it digital or physical. Then make your own physical media of it or back it up whereever you want.
- Comment on What does "Woke" mean to you? 4 weeks ago:
look, i live in country with fortuitous lack of facists. or at least ones we have seem to keep mostly to themselves. I have never read anything regarding this from press or other source so that memory is pretty much only thing i have on the matter. According to wikipedia it was black lives matter during ferguson protests that started using it.
though i kind of agree that on this point its quite pointless word to use beyond shitty people self-identifying themselves by raving how woke everything is.
- Comment on What does "Woke" mean to you? 4 weeks ago:
i remember there being some twitter trend around it, kind of like the “me too” movement too. I think that is what started the term.
Also, why would they invent such a word and not some more derogatory one? “Woke” has quite positive spin, being aware and stuff. The reason they use it as negative word is because its against everything they believe in. Woke people are literally a threat to them because they want to keep hating and abusing others. They want to keep doing the shit they are doing and anyone no indifferent to it is a problem.
saying they invented it is more akin to propaganda and revisionist history to me because it takes something away from the word, makes it lesser.
- Comment on What does "Woke" mean to you? 4 weeks ago:
it wasnt invented by them
- Comment on What does "Woke" mean to you? 4 weeks ago:
at this point its more of a way for assholes to out themselves by raving about how “woke” everything is.
but essentially it means to me being aware of things (more than just racism)

- Comment on Game suggestions: Downvote any game you've heard of before 1 month ago:
zero-k has terrain modification, which i havent seen on any other similar games. The units also have quite advanced ai, so less micromanagement. Though sometimes they get themselves in trouble but you can also setup retreat points for them.
- Comment on Game suggestions: Downvote any game you've heard of before 1 month ago:
zero-k is very nice, opensource too. I think it started as mod for total annihilation or supreme commander and developed into its own thing.

or the reviews are in lines of “brings nothing new, 9/10”

which is why any opensource project should have strict restrictions about how companies are allowed to use it.

that would require us to be in control of our own lives, instead of rich owning us. thorough research costs a lot of money and resources, it would cut into profits and some rich guy might not be able to buy third yact.

there are many other things that were considered unrealistical legal obligations. our current consumer protections as a whole most likely were opposed by businesses at first, expect at that time governments were less puppet theaters for corporations.
