I’m not sure how you came to that interpretation.
Theft is theft, I never implied it wasn’t.
And I never said it could be perfectly justified. I said each situation was nuanced and that there is no hard right/wrong.
That doesn’t mean the theft never happened, just that some crimes are easier to forgive.
Theft is too vague to be given a blanket right/wrong verdict for all situations.
Failure to recognise nuance is morally inept.
We have courts and juries specifically because morality is not a hard rule.
Oh no, I really hope they don’t specifically target the tesla-only chargers…
You’re right. Brahma, the one true god, did all this for us.
I didn’t know he got rhe romans to kill that imposter on the cross but you learn something new every day.
If you mash all the numbers in your birthday together like ddmmyyyy, there’s a cool trick you can do with the new 8-digit number.
Send me your special birthday number and I’ll show you what I mean.
Preferred by who?
Personally I’m not a fan of the ‘modern’ windows UI, lack of a menu bar, added sponsor button, lack of 32-bit support, lack of windows <10 support, or the fact that it’s an msix-installed ‘app’ rather than a normal program.
Subtract rent, bills, gas, savings for maintenance, etc.
Your food budget is much smaller than $1160/month, so why not take <10 seconds to make sure you aren’t overpaying?
Plus it’s just annoying having to go back to the store sooner because you have less eggs than you needed.
I didn’t know lowes sold that sort of thing! ;)
Mr.Poon is known for fucking things…
The technology itself isn’t, but companies will probably abuse the word ‘quantum’ until it loses all meaning, like they have with AI.

How do you know it was completely useless to anyone else though?
You better start pushing then
I never said you did, and it’s perfectly normal to be curious.
It’s just that blind people have to answer these same uninformed questions all the time, and it can be tiring.
Saying you did look it up seems worse to me than saying you didn’t.
One acknowledges a lack of effort, the other implies notable effort and failure at a relatively simple task.
No judgement intended, I’m just trying to instill some introspection. I’ll leave you be now.
Being blind is a spectrum, but even ‘fully’ blind people can use phones and computers with a screen reader.
Alt-text allows people to describe images, OCR can recognise text in images, and now AI can also describe images.
Blind people aren’t helpless, incapable or dependent, like some stereotypes might lead you to believe. Many are able to live relatively normal, independent lives.
Some even play videogames and stream on twitch.
But some find constantly being asked the same questions and needing to inform others that they aren’t incapable to be quite annoying. Especially when this sort of info is readily available online.
I think of it like asking a question on reddit and only reading the first reply.
You never know if the person replying is an expert or someone at the first peak of a dunning-kruger graph.
I’ll just abstain until the system is magically fixed or until a third party somehow gets a majority vote. Until then, I’m perfectly fine with the obviously worse party winning.
I didn’t directly vote for them, I only chose to let them win, so it’s not my fault if they win.
… but I don’t see how setting your twitter bio to “trans rights” is supporting anyone.
Go donate to or share info about a charity like the trevor project or equality federation, rather than lazily virtue signalling.
I don’t usually talk, sing, or hum alone, but I’m always either tapping my foot, tapping my desk, or clicking a pen.
It’s not really deliberate, it just sort of happens.
Though to be fair I do deliberately buy retractable pens so I can click them…
Did acid once, this was my experience:
There were the typical effects like motion trails, moving patterns, etc, but honestly most of the effects were more tied to my emotional state than anything else.
When I was feeling good, things look brighter, a little blurrier, softer, maybe a little more wavy, and I felt happier and more confident.
But when I was feeling bad, things looked sharper, more intense, and with higher contrast. Small smudges on the wall would stand out, and I felt vulnerable like I was a little kid.
Sounds were more intense and louder, almost like they were coming out of my head.
Music was too intense for me at the peak, but it was great during the come down. It sounded really spatial like the music was all around me.
My emotions could easily be swayed by the most insignificant things, like the colour of a light, a gust of wind, etc…
It constantly felt like I was moving forward/progressing though. Something that made me ‘sad’ 20 seconds ago felt like it happened a long time ago.
Any current problems felt like they had already passed, because I’d already been on the rollercoaster of emotions processing them. It was like a “I’ve felt everything there is to feel about that, time to move on” sort of thing.
