That’s…not how chemistry works.

Seriously?? Protecting themselves from any consequences will mean they act in your best interest???

Hey, wanna buy some lakefront property? It’s on the moon, but still… 🤣

If they get bent somehow and don’t sit properly on your face anymore, try to avoid bending them back yourself. It’s better to have a professional do it. They know where the stress points are and how to do it right without breaking them!

Suzy Cube - it’s a 3d platformer, to me kinda has Super Mario 3d Land/World vibes

Huh, didn’t realize that. I understand a lot of the physical servers for those kinda companies are in the upper Midwest, but I never thought about where thire HQ is at; you make some excellent points.

There is definitely a fight brewing over who has final say in regards to what happens on the Internet. Gonna be interesting seeing how this plays out.

The difference is, I think, just how much of the content or there is hosted in America. If they succeed in forcing local companies to follow some new draconian measure, it’ll likely have a disproportionately high effect on non-US traffic.

Well, they’re the ones that know which pizza shops have pedophile sex dungeons hidden underneath. So, I guess they’re fighting themselves. (As I typed that out, it occurred to me how true is a statement it was…😝)

Your couldn’t throw us a bone by including a link? 😉

That’s okay, I got you covered.

So, Trump is better? Yeah, we know he sucks. We also know Trump is far, far worse. But you know this, don’t you?

What is your plan, exactly? By not voting Biden, you help Trump, and he WILL directly cause far more death and suffering.

I’m still not gonna check a broken clock for the time, so what’s your point?

Lol no.

Yup, the West wanted war so bad they invaded…wait, no, that’s obviously bullshit.

Swapping one states’ propaganda for another isn’t enlightened, its just plain stupid.

What am I missing, here?

Well, for starters, you seem to be missing anything resembling a coherent argument… 🤪

Umm, no. Just…yeah, no.

The main problem with this theory is that Microsoft is absolutely abysmal at user end security, and they always have been. Frankly, they do not understand the issue.

But, more to the point, the whole TPM/secure boot stuff is a compromise; originally (I think this was about the time of Vista), they partnered with OEMs to have them include a DRM chip that made it literally impossible to install any non-windows OS on your laptop. They’ve managed to still get an implementation of TPM that makes switching your OS too confusing/difficult for the average user.

Anyway, bottom line is they only care about money, and they neither care or even understand the security needs of the end user.

But… they’ve long since figured out how to monetize without the content. So, that’s a hard disagree from me…

Yeah, that’s some scary levels of cognitive distance on full display here. But, at times like this, we must try to suppress any desire to say, “I told you so.” When somebody makes a statement that might imply they are somewhat aware at least of the effects of such cognitive dissonance, they need compassion, not contempt, to find a way out of their own mazes.

False. Nobody in this thread has made any claim that can be reasonably interpreted as “antisemites don’t exist”.

And I guess you’re just asking questions??

Not every act is a sign of somebody having an agenda or whatever…

Umm, so do you realize how badly you just destroyed any shred of credibility you had left?

Thank you for identifying a source of disinformation, though; I’m adding it to my block list.

No. Read it again. I never said allegation. I never referenced court proceedings. I said the act of rape is indefensible.

If you commit rape, there is no “decent” defense. If you didn’t, then my comment doesn’t apply. Simple as that.

There is no excuse for sexual violence, and there never will be.
