All take, no give

Unless you forget to bind your torrent client to the VPN interface. Found that out the hard way and had to pay 600 € for like 10 seconds of accidental seeding, and that was after negotiating with the law firm, else it would have been around 1k €. So yeah, the commenter above was not kidding with torrenting in Germany being dangerous, even the slightest error in your setup can be pretty expensive. Now I only use i2p torrents to be on the really safe side, and also because I want to see the network grow.

Richard Stallman Was Asked: Is Software Piracy Wrong?

Reply in thread

And that's why I was wondering if the question was asked verbatim. Stallman doesn't seem to know what the word means either.

I don't get what's supposed to be so controversial about the first part, though. Many countries already have their age of consent somewhere around 14, often including Romeo and Juliet laws (i.e. not indiscriminately), so not really an unpopular take, and I can't say I disagree with him there.

You'd agree of course, that pedophiles should be removed from society?

No, I would most definitely not. In the same way that I would not agree that we should remove all men from society just because they make up the majority of rapists.

Is the idea of shaming pedophiles and pedo apologists some kind of line in the sand that shouldn't be crossed in your eyes?

Yes.

Vitali sperrt den Dreijährigen in den Wandschrank, nimmt ihm alles weg, gibt ihm dann nur minimale Vorräte und schlägt auch immer mal wieder zu. Wundert mich nicht, dass der Dreijährige sich dagegen konstant und auf jede erdenkliche Weise versucht zu wehren.

Free speech activists condemn UK entry ban for Hasan Piker and Cenk Uygur

For all intents and purposes, none is more serious than the other, there's no practical difference. And if they wanted to take a closer look, they could have done that before approving the ETA. Doing this right now is a politically motivated action, not because of actual public safety concerns or whatever. It also doesn't help that it was revoked days before the scheduled visit, as a visa application won't be approved in time.

Amsterdam verbietet Werbung für Fleisch

Reply in thread

Weil Fleischkonsum objektiv scheiße ist, dafür zu werben dementsprechend ebenfalls.

Stellst du diese Frage auch beim Verbot von Asbest? Oder bei Tempolimits innerorts? Manche Dinge gehören halt einfach verboten. Wenn es nach mir ginge würde ich gleich die gesamte Fleischindustrie verbieten, sich jetzt also wegen so einem einfachen Werbeverbot so einzupissen ist schon echt lächerlich.

Jesus fucking Christ, are you just ragebaiting or are you genuinely this bad at comprehending stuff? I am talking about the equivalent of your original point, that being the PREEMPTIVE removal of ALL MEN from society due to the fact that they are the main perpetrators of rape, despite the overwhelming majority of them not being rapists at all.

Is this clear now, or should I send your Mum over to explain it to you?
