In a perfect world, these would be decided not server-side, but client-side by choices made by the browser users.

But our world is not perfect.

I never watched an X-men, nor the old Dune, so for me Patrick Stewart is Jean-Luc Picard.

I did using Gemini (the protocol, not Google’s thing) and Gopher.

That’s probably because I live in another country which works very differently, so what I’ll say is not a judgement about the veracity of your comment, but I find incredible that $14’000 a month could be in any capacity considered a mediocre salary… the French president earns that in euros!

It’s clearly down; even downer if we calculate in dollars and not tonnes, as the prices fell.

There’s a whole theological reflection by the German pastor and theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer, who participated in a tentative to kill Hitler. In a nutshell, he said that killing was always bad, but in some fringe cases, someone has to get their hands dirty.

He was killed by the Nazis after the failure of the killing attempt.

You’re disgusting. One shouldn’t just throw away perfectly good shit like that!

I tend not to poo in my shower, though.

Every time you buy a HP goodie, you stream a HP film, you buy a new HP book, you play Hogwarts Legacy, you finance transphobia. And every time you speak about her works positively, you help her stay relevant, and you make other people buy her works, so you indirectly finance transphobia.

And you give your money to the art or the artist?

From the article :

For one thing, it’s not even clear that the claim that Chinese women have small fingers is even true. Research on global hand size is lacking, but one study found that the average Chinese person has a hand size approximately equal to that of the average German. An analysis of hand size around the world, though it didn’t include China, found that even the largest average differences in women’s hand size between countries was negligible.

This is not the dubious claim.

It is dubious.

Follow your own advice then, you’ll learn that it’s the role of the journalist to qualify wrong and offensive statements reported, or it is implied that the journalist approves of the position.

Even better!

Beautiful propaganda.

admitting to not studying it.

Where did I admitted that?

Disagreements on opinions and beliefs are sane, normal and even cool. I love a good debate! Disagreements on facts aren’t.

But you’ve already condemned any representative representative body administrating things

No, I never did that.

If you think workers had anything to say in the USSR, you’re delusional.

No. I defined what’s socialism for me (owning of the mean of production by the workers), and all can see that the USSR and friends weren’t that. Then I gave Marx’s definition of socialism, even if I’m not Marxist (a mode of production were the usefulness replaced the price as value), and all can see that the USSR and friends weren’t that. Thus they’re something else, and I used a term that Lenin himself used: state capitalism (which wasn’t limited to the NEP). Please stop with your strawmen.
