There is no prison for billionaires. Look at New York v. Trump. The only way to fix this mess is a revolution, AKA civil war.

Ĝi ne havas Esperanton :(

I think the question is about Java servers

I used to use Duolingo, but they enshittified, so now I use Drops. They’ve got plenty of problems, but they let Me choose which vocabulary to learn. I jumped straight into the Pride topics after revising the basics

Mi lernas Esperanton! Mi faris la kviran Esperantan komunomon, !glat@multiverse.soulism.net! Se vi povas legi ĉi tiu, venu paroli!

I’m the same. I played Watch_Dogs, I know what the Bellwether is. I’m not giving them that data.

Getting used to a new UI can be stressful and taxing to the audhd brain. If it’s your own choice that stress and effort can be fun, it can be an adventure. But if you perceive the world around you to be forcing you into it, it feels like being attacked. Other people forcing you into an exhausting situation. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pathological_demand_avoidance

I had a meltdown for most of a day the last time I updated Discord on My phone.

I’ll do you one better. The rich convinced the people that the fundamental nature of reality is both objective and knowable, and that it generally agrees with white people’s existing cultural biases.

And they convinced white people to spread their idea of reality, because believing in a different reality (or unreality) is some kind of moral crime.

And that’s why people hate schizophrenics, for struggling to see reality. That’s why they hate trans people, for ignoring what cis traditions see as real. That’s why they hate abolitionists and suffragetes and socialists. That’s why they hate muslims and indigenous and pagans and twospirit. That’s why they hate anyone who thinks differently than they do. For not conforming to their moralist idea of objective reality.

Despite the quarrels of the past, we have finally – partly through Darmangeat’s work – arrived at a basic idea of the two main types of inter-tribal confrontation that occurred in Indigenous Australia. The most common, devastating warfare seems to have been stealth attacks – raids or kanudaitji (secret or revenge expeditions), for instance in the Western Deserts.40 These were usually small parties of men, but sometimes scores or more, who would sneak deep into enemy territories to commit assassinations or theft (usually of women).41 In contrast to raids there existed what we can call open, regulated battles (some prefer the word “tournaments”), which were much more formalized and lengthy events, involving anywhere from 60 to over 1,500 combatants, drawn from several allied groups.

…

At any rate, battles, raids and duels were intended more as a form of cathartic venting rather than a field of slaughter. In South Australia, an Indigenous Australian informant described what he considered a recent “glorious” (successful) battle. He defined it as successful because “nobody tumble down, only big one yabber [talk]. … My king … say ‘don’t throw spears, only yabber.’”

Even when battles involved very large numbers of warriors, they generally resulted in flesh wounds and very few, if any, deaths – although there were some very violent exceptions, depending on the intensity of the dispute. Raids were more usually fatal, and highly unpredictable (indeed, it was expected that women and children would suffer), but often only the targets were slain.

You don’t need to throw tribes under the bus, you can call it sectarianism.

Tribes were actually pretty good at coexistence. Here in Australia before colonisation, tribes went to war sometimes, and often, nobody died. They had rules for how to conduct war that made it safe. Nations are way more violent than tribes.

I think the government should ban animal agriculture except the most vital medical and scientific uses. Customers should need to prove they have a serious medical disorder that can only be treated with meat in order to buy it. It should be regulated very tightly, the same as medical amphetamines. That’s how we reduce the harm suffered by the animals.

Damn. I hope she isn’t proud of that.

Then it’s a good thing I’m an antirealist. We shouldn’t be pressuring others to believe in reality, it just reinforces bigotry and oppression.

I feel like poking a hornet’s nest today. Do you think animal farming should be legal? No ethical consumption under capitalism, right?

Keeping it illegal means it’s an action of last resort - ensuring that only the most vulnerable people get caught in it.

Well I want the average sex worker to be a person who has a generally safe and pleasant life.

I’m worried that if buyers demand to practice in secret, it becomes practically impossible to regulate and for sex workers to implement proper occupational safety practices. For example, security guards to protect them from violent customers.

I agree with your first paragraph, but I’ve heard from experts in the field that human trafficking is already illegal, criminalising sex work just scares the victim into silence.

A lot of sex slaves here in Australia are immigrants who agreed to an illegal and unethical deal in order to flee their home countries. So when the cops bust a trafficking ring, what do they do? Send the girls back home to the regime they fled. That’s not helping. The government should give them a visa and let them work here if they want.
