• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Should visitors to a country (tourist / visa-holders / people staying temporarily) have the right to criticize the government? When should an immigrant have the right to criticize the government?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Should doesn’t enter. They do have that right, it’s a human right, the right of free expression. Doesn’t depend on nationality or location, only humanity.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are most people here left-wing?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Quibble: Many here are explicitly leftist, in the a leftist-not-liberal sense, and will even use “liberal” derogatorily. So, progressive, yes, but liberal, not necessarily.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Exactly the current situation.

  And that includes cryptographic techniques, by the way.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How does one snap their fingers?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Press your middle finger and thumb together with your pinky in the hollow of the gerl of your hand and your ring finger slightly overlapping it at the base of the thumb. Move the thumb out of the way to the side, allowing the middle finger to accelerated down to strike the spot where the ring finger meets the base of the thumb.

  How I learned? In a dream. I literally woke up snapping my fingers and I’ve been able to do it ever since.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is the best political movie? And what is the best apolitical movie?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Dave and The Princess Bride

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why dont more people live in smaller communities , appart from economic opportunity (WFH is making it possible if not prefferable too)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  My neighborhood is my “small community”. I don’t need to leave the city for that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨American and British English spelling and pronunciations⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s “grey” not “gray”. I don’t know which side prefers which, I just know what I prefer.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there a non leftist version of this website?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh shit, it is that guy. A drama in three acts.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Yes, in the 1980s we downloaded games from the radio⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  mmmm, that’s the good stuff

  hands down, my favorite 2D artist

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How does Google make money from Gmail, the google calendar, drive or other services when used with third party front ends?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Many people pay for additional storage on Google.

  Plus tying your online identity to Google means you’re more likely to use their other services.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you work hard enough, your work will [pay off].’ And that’s not true.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, yeah. But there’s also plenty of times where you can’t capitalize on good luck without a fair but of hard work. Generally, to succeed, a combination of luck, work, and help will all play into that success.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨how tf do you warm up plates?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Diners put food on a special counter called a “pass” that has heat lamps above it. This keeps the food warm, and the plates warm. Keeps the counter warm, too. A lot of them store plates above the pass, an area that’s also pretty warm all the time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why Titles Are Written Like This?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  articles and prepositions are exempt

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What do you do if you encounter a skunk?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why aren't there mass protests in the USA?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  And that 63.7% is of eligible voters. The disenfranchised, teenagers, and noncitizens aren’t counted.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What happened to FlyingSquid?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Who said “Democrat”?

  You’re not wrong, though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What happened to FlyingSquid?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It turns out the far left also thinks “liberal” is an insult.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why are autistic people so odd??⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Because they have been traumatized, usually, and people with trauma behave erratically.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Was the supreme court wrong to assess that because america is a capitalist society money is a form of speach?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It stems back to an earlier problem, which is corporate personhood in general and limited liability in particular.

  Donations to political candidates must be public, but donations to organizations need not be. But with the fig leaf of corporate personhood, organizations who take in anonymous donations can act as entities to themselves and donate to political candidates. It’s the same reason a company can go broke and owe their vendors and employees millions while the executives enrich themselves. It all comes back to corporate personhood.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Internet parents?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I dunno, but I’d sub that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it a pattern for right-wing people to attack films, series and animations with protagonists from minority groups? Or is this an exaggeration?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d say it’s strongly correlated for those who attack minority representation to be right-wing, but the converse correlation is not as strong.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It means the impetus that drives you to improve yourself or even maintain yourself comes from other people, rather than self-regulation.

  In your case, social status, specifically social approval from women you find attractive.

  There’s nothing wrong with that. Sounds like you just need to maintain contact with those types of people to stay motivated. Shouldn’t be too hard to arrange.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Sounds like you’re externally motivated.
