- Comment on Italy to require VPN and DNS providers to block pirated content 2 weeks ago:
Take this with a grain of salt, I am by no means qualified to say anything on this topic with total certainty.
All a VPN does is encrypt traffic between you and the VPN. The VPN Hub you’re connected to has to unencrypted your outbound traffic, fulfilling those requests, and then encrypting inbound traffic back to you. A VPN obscures traffic by allowing you to make your requests from a different location, where thousands of others also do it, all while hiding who is making any requests it fulfills, and hiding your activity from your ISP with encryption. A good VPN will also not keep logs of anything it does, and will have options to connect to Hubs outside of five eyes countries.
This would mean that while the VPN might not know who is making what requests, they would know what those requests are, so they could blacklist illegal content. All this to say a VPN >VPN >VPN > VPN still has a final VPN that has to make the request, and they will know where the request is going and what its for. But unless that final VPN company or Hub is actually inside of Italy they have no jurisdiction.
The real problem with this method is A) who determines what is blacklisted B) How do you enforce this blacklist C) How do you make the blacklist grow as fast as pirates spread out. This is a stupid law that wouldn’t do anything even if the entire world got on board.

I also don’t understand a fucking lick of this. It’s suuuuper light on context, like it’s an article written for people who already know what’s going on.
- Comment on GOP Proposes $4.5 Trillion Tax Giveaway to the Rich While 'Ransacking' Food Stamps and Medicaid 3 weeks ago:
So you say we are just comfortable enough to allow it. Do you believe this system is maintaining a status quo of comfort? No everything is actively getting worse. If things are getting worse, then how will they maintain “just comfortable enough”. Even if it was the case that we COULD maintain this minimum standard of comfort, do you believe those greedy cunts will be satisfied with that. No, they will still demand a bigger piece of the pie. So the system is bound to get worse, and eventually hardship will outweigh comfort.
Your viewpoint is one of the lobster in the water slowly having the water turned up, you have seen a lifetime of no one caring that the water is getting hotter, so you can only assume it will carry on that way forever. My opinion is one of historical context, knowing that the temp will never stop rising, and eventually the water gets too hot and the lobsters climb out of the pot and attack. I’m not saying its coming soon, but it is coming, we are on that path.

We didn’t vote for capitalist ownership of our news. We didn’t vote for an entrenched two party system. We didn’t vote for citizens united. This country began going down the drain in the 80s
- Comment on GOP Proposes $4.5 Trillion Tax Giveaway to the Rich While 'Ransacking' Food Stamps and Medicaid 3 weeks ago:
That is because you are conflating the current climate, with the future climate. Trust that everything will continue to get worse for everyone and we are accelerating the decline. There is a limit to what people will take, to say otherwise is to ignore all of human history.

Lets also remember that the dems have watch the build up of shit on our shoes from GOP jumping into cowpies over and over, but they fail to grab a stick and clean it off, all they do is slap a sparkly sticker on the shit covered boot. The entire government is complicit. We took the guardrails off of capitalist and this is just the death throes of a system built to favor economic gain for the few at the cost of a decent standard of living for million.
- Comment on Jeep Introduces Pop-Up Ads That Appear Every Time You Stop 3 weeks ago:
Don’t worry, our choice for each election is capitalism and cruelty free capitalism, it’s always been a matter of time.
It will always be the case that given enough time a capitalist will find a way to convince the public to vote against self interest just a little, and then the snowball starts rolling.

- Comment on I love diablo-likes, but they're also really annoying. 5 months ago:
Yeah at that point it kind of morphs genre from dungeon grinder to isometric action. That being said I think isometric action is a way better game type due to the level of involvement and a challenge that’s skill based; whereas I find dungeon grinders to boring from overly simplistic controls and gameplay loops.
That being said I am tired of so many game just giving you 3 real buttons, but this is the problem with making games to make money, if you want to market broad you have to keep it simple.
Behind every problem in life lies capitalisms ugly asshole.

This would be a great point if we were discussing how fast you can get the item and not the cost of the item.

Definitely would have been my first choice to look also, but do you think that staples or office max is going to have something cheaper than amazon?

You probably think you’re clever but being pedantic is just being an insufferable twat about stuff everyone else understood from context. That doesn’t make you clever, that just shows everyone that you need to be seen as clever, which is sad.

I wouldn’t say it’s a manipulation, the game is far beyond the original game at this point. I’m surprised it’s even on sale ATM. It’s an amazing game.

- Comment on Windows 10 reaches 70% market share as Windows 11 keeps declining 10 months ago:
Windows is in a permanent state of shitification, it feels to be like they have sales driving development. Every year Windows applications make more and more stupid fucking decisions with how stuff functions. You can’t target a specific folder to save a word doc without 5 clicks to get to the fucking file explorer. You now left click to fix spelling instead of right click in outlook. None of this shit makes sense. They keep fucking around with how stuff operates for seemingly no rhyme or reason and all it’s doing is pissing off seasoned users. I know the devs aren’t this fucking brain dead which is how I get to “sales must be driving” mentality. Because sales people tend the be the worst fucking people to make decisions on shit,they’re good at charming people, they should stick to that.
