The only people who say this know nothing about quantum or computers

It’s a mistake to imagine most regulation is just brainless nonsense. It would be like imagining the entire legal industry is composed of burglars suing home owners because they slipped in the kitchen whilst robbing the house and concluding we could easily do away with it.

Looser regulations is incredibly unlikely to effect only or even mostly the stupid or even only or even mostly the poor. Firstly the primary food supply for rich and poor right up to the 1% generally comes from the same ultimate sources the rich just A) mix some more expensive stuff in B) have people who fetch and prepare the food for them.

Also people are incredibly laughably bad at enacting food safety by voting with their feet even when a particular restaurant is making people sick. Oftentimes the actual sickness may take days to manifest and may not be connected obviously with the ultimate source. Now that is for things that at least directly sicken people. Things that are merely unhealthy may have an ultimate effect that is only visible at the population level where you see significantly more people get cancer in the next 10 to 20 years.

Over here having your doctor would cost at least a $40 copay and wouldn’t get insurance to pay

This is illegal will get your own account banned and can be undone by the guy asserting accurately that you don’t own the copyright to his video. Strategies that work great for scummy companies with teams of lawyers aren’t always great for those without.

Voting third party in a first past the post system with only 2 dominant parties not only throws away your vote. If your preference is Third party Harris Trump you are actually helping Trump win when you vote third party instead of the person who actually has a chance.

Ad hominem isn’t when you insult people AND make an argument its when you insult people INSTEAD of making an argument.

User initially believes that this is only a Linux issue because its almost entirely discussed on forums frequented by technical people who often use Linux whereas forums full of Windows gamers are equally effected but ignorant of the topic.

It’s a much higher risk than average because games are often abandoned within one year of release and still run as long as 10-15 years later and connects to the internet and other randos on the internet. See the Call of Duty games that allow you to take over the computer of anyone who connects to your online match. It greatly degrades the security of its users.

Technically lots of things people call “malware” don’t actually do any of those things. For instance they may hijack your default search engine, pop up ads, or otherwise monetize your computer at your expense. The category that was invented by ass coverers is “possibly unwanted program” but outside of those who worry about being sued by scumbags people colloquially refer to both what you call malware AND PUPs as "malware the root of which is “bad” after all. Language being descriptive not prescriptive I think this broader definition of malware is fine.

Do you remember when Sony released cds that when inserted into Windows computer auto ran an installer that installed a rootkit that made it impossible for Windows to see any processes or files that started with a certain sequence of characters instantly turning any malware that named its files or processes similarly powerful rootkit. Oh and it installed a cd driver that made it impossible to copy their music.

Suggested removal was a full reinstall of windows.

If they change the deal they should have to offer refunds. This makes it an expensive choice after the fact.

No its common for anti-cheat on Windows to have full root permission to your entire system Windows users are just on average less intelligent, less concerned about privacy, and, more ignorant about technology. This doesn’t mean using Windows makes you stupid its just the OS of choice for the stupid and ignorant.

With 2 parties supporting the other is the only way that you oppose the one.

So they started endorsing the Democrats when the Republicans became a criminal enterprise over half a century ago you mean.

We have only 2 major parties and one has been a criminal enterprise for 56 years

• Nixon Watergate
• Reagan: sold drugs to buy guns for guys Congress said not to buy guns for because they were mass murderers
• Bush Sr US: helped with above
• Bush Jr faked evidence for a war which killed half a million people and cost 6 trillion dollars also illegally tortured
• Trump do I even need to do this one?

At this point Trump wants to form militias to round up 25M people and drag them to concentration camps and turn the military loose on anyone who disagrees.

This includes 11M undocumented workers who almost all live law abiding lives and Americans who were born here from above who are by our constitution citizens regardless of the status of their parents.

He has publically called for violence, and end to our constitution, a new era where the dictator tells the government what the law is.

It is strange for any responsible party not to oppose essentially Hitler.

The 10k is the statuatory minimum and its paid from the person just trying to take a piss to the psychopath policing who can piss where who was not in any way damaged. It is not at all normal to pay random people out of the pockets of those breaking the law.

In this case it encourages bigots to attack trans people trying to pee by allowing them to legally rob them if they catch them.

Worse it encourages such attacks whichever bathroom they use. Dress like a girl use the womans room get attacked for using the wrong bathroom, use the mens room get attacked for being a woman in the means room.

Using the bounty as a method of enforcement exists because the law is deemed likely unlawful. It exists explicitly to stop a pre emptive lawsuit against the government to stop enforcement.

But Russians ARE responsible for the actions of their government.

Have you noticed exactly how many Russians are bigots who support the mass murder of their neighbors?

Lebanon isn’t the beaten up victim they are scumbags that host a terrorist army. If this specific conflict didn’t exist they would still be a terrorist state run by a gang of thugs.

Yes any country that hosts a terrorist militia should both shut it down and make peace with its neighbors. Israel should offer peace in exchange for all hostages and a lawfully administered democratic Palestinian state protected by the UN but without arms for a period of time. Unlawful Israeli settlements should be ceded to this state.

All these things are worth doing and benefit everyone except hard liners on both side which have aspirations that range from unlawful to unrealistic.

Instead of achieving any extreme ends of either party the results of current strategy is likely to be a permanent state of suffering that will directly or indirectly harm millions. Their lifes and times are worth saving.

In what universe can a 100,000 man army launch attacks against your neighbor whilst operating out of your home country funded and manned by your nation and not be at war?

It would be like having the Texas national guard launching rockets into Mexico. The US and Mexico would be at war. Proxy war as a sub for actual war only works when you are strong enough your adversary is disinclined to respond to your provocation. Imagine hiring goons and visibly directing them to break your neighbors windows and thinking that you can stay out of the scuffle.

Critique Israel all you like and I do as well. I don’t feel like Lebanon has any right to complain that Israel is striking them. They should commit to stopping the attacks and they and Israel should make peace.

Hezbollah

A paramilitary organization that operations openly with the support of Lebanon and her people. Anyone at war with Hezbollah is at war with Lebanon.
