this means that if Unity sends you a bill, you don't have to pay it, and if they take you to court, you prove that you're acting within the terms of the license you agreed to, which keeps your lawyer fees to a manageable level because you already have all the documents you need: the contract and your source code.

I mean right? IANAL.

I was willing to believe Trump knew Epstein but didn't get entangled on any list (Trump is still a pedo sneaking into way underage girls' dressing rooms), but now I think he's definitely on the client list.

anyone who doesn't expect a regime of brutal martial law to come out of a Trump administration is fooling themselves.

these people have already shown they don't care about law and order to institute their belief system on the rest of us.

what's going to stop them? congress? they'll kick out the Democrats because law and order mean nothing to them in their pursuit of power at any costs.

a full scale state-by-state civil war is increasingly likely.

That said they were duped by the "both sides are flawed" rhetoric for longer than they should have been. A Gen X myopia.

I forget which episode it was where they made it clear they understood they'd been duped, but it was after J6 as I recall.

It's not a stunt, it's total megalomania and you are falling for the coping tactic of pretending he's not serious in his literal statement to expand the borders of the US north and south.

Stop deflecting blame from shitty women. There are shitty women who do shitty things and "the patriarchy" does not excuse their behavior.

Stop worshiping the patriarchy. The patriarchy is not God. The patriarchy is not to blame for every shitty thing a shitty woman does.

Sometimes women are shitty and you make the problem worse by telling everyone it's not their fault because the patriarchy is God in your idiot doctrine.

Edit: I'm not saying the patriarchy isn't real, it definitely is and should be dismantled. But you need to interrogate your own righteousness or you're just spreading neoliberal schlock to make yourself feel better about how women can be shitty to men.

one of the most surprising things about the slave consciousness was that if you created it with qualities, it would actually have those qualities.

it's still useless and probably blasphemous, but the only way these things kill us is if we tell them to kill us, which is regrettably what we're currently doing.

currently it's a loud and powerful minority that may pull us into civil war.

John Roberts was 67 when his geriatric lapse rendered the 2024 election illegitimate and fraudulent.

79% of Americans want age caps.

Pilots are retired at 65 years old.

The unfolding geriatric catastrophe of the White House is enabled by Democratic Party failure to press the issue of age. Geriatrics with a stranglehold on party politics damned us to continued geriatric incompetence.

It follows that the only path to restoring the constitutional order is the immediate removal of all geriatric politicians at every level. Federal, State, Judiciary, Legislative, Executive. 100% gone.

It's not difficult: "respect for elders" shouldn't be a suicide pact.

most people have bad taste. hpmor spreads vapid grandiose intellectualism and the people who like it should act more like skulblaka: they were trivially manipulated by a cult leader.

to be fair, though, eliezer yudkowsky is being sardonic in the OP text.

unironically, he ought to be next, and he better know it, and he better go quietly

you're still operating on the 2014 patch, it's 2024

Too many supposedly autistic traits are present in neurotypical people. In my study of autism I've seen a lot of autistic chauvinism and I'm finding myself viscerally opposed to smug celebration of the challenges autism poses for the people who suffer from it.

Put bluntly, autism doesn't prevent autistic people from falling into line and propagating "civilized" dysfunction. I enjoy the quotes this article puts around "civilized" from the standpoint of delegitimizing social approval as anything but a convenient and easily misused fiction, but not if it is used as a prop for autists to feel as if they are in any way superior.

Pride in neurodiversity is one thing, but autistic chauvinism is dangerous.

Traits which are adaptive in some contexts are maladaptive in others. Traits which when paired with other traits are sometimes more adaptive than they are by themselves.

Traits which cause interpersonal conflict are traits which cause interpersonal conflict.

If you think you're on "the right" and are not advocating actively and persistently for Trump's removal from office, you're a fucking useless moron.

wow you're an easy dupe

It includes people who under the guise of 'pure feminism' rail against 'patriarchy' whenever men's issues come up. Feminists are not immune to propaganda.

like it's not that hard. The US is not some special case when it comes to nation-states.

When the murder monkey hate spiral gets going, it keeps on murdering and hating.

if you believe otherwise, you are fooling yourself.

Can I ask a different, more difficult question?

Where are people going?

Lemmy Isn't Quite It? Mastodon is too formal. Blusky is too political.

Lemmy was a clone of Reddit. Not an improvement on it.

If you use DNS at all, do you even own your street address!?!?

but it's literally fascism. like the inability to refer to the fascism as fascism is what Rowling the transphobe was writing about?
