This reeks of a conservative shitpost.

Not for their AI plans they don’t. 🤑🤑🤑 /s

Supposed proponent of the “free market” thinks that the market was unfair to massive corporation. More at 11. /s

But it’s ok if I’m “drive-by” upvoting? I basically upvote everything from 196. How is this any different?

Wait - you’re respecting other people’s tastest that don’t coincide with yours on the internet? Is that legal? /j

A Neanoerthal that knows Kandinsky, tho.

The notion of “human progress” is a narrative we tell ourselves that doesn’t really apply to reality.

Yes, definetly. Still: the leaning curve is just very steep.

Just use the tui-alternative (implemented in Rust, of course). /j

He even rewrote parts of the code that weren’t by him in order to remove the GPL license.

No, that came after he changed the license. Linux users installed an old version because that was the newest version that was allowed to be packaged. Then, people gave bug reports and feature requests, based on that old version (which were already addressed in newer versions), mostly because they didn’t know any better.

It’s not entitlement if you want to use the package manager on a linux system.

The dev forbids packaging his emulator via licence. I’m pleading that they’re the asshole here.

Just put the Windows in a VM, duh! /j

Kidnapping children and suppression of their language IS genocide.

I don’t think it’s as clear cut as e.g. the charter schools in the so-called US. These kids were in a warzone and I’d rather see them in Russian schools than casualties lying in some mass grave. It’s still fucking horrible, but I still see the difference in magnitude.

The Russian state has, on multiple occasions over the years, denied the existence of Ukraine and Ukrainians as a distinct group with a right to exist.

Nope. Putin claimed that Russians, Ukrainians and Belarussians are “one people”. That’s not “denying the right of existence”. Danes, Norwegians, Swedes, Icelanders and Fins always call themselves “the Northerners” without wanting to annex each other.

You have an agenda and you will only see what you want to see.

Well, I could accuse you of the same.

You want to support imperial genocide? You go right ahead.

Now where did you get the idea that I support what Russia is doing? In the first comment you replied to I clearly stated that I condoned neither Russia nor Ukraine.

My stance is that the territorial interests of Ukraine aren’t worth all the Ukrainians that are still sent into the meatgrinder.

Wouldn’t you know it: I already checked. Wanna know what stories I found? Slaughter of civilians? Yes. War crimes? Sure. Kidnapping of children in Ukraine? You bet. Full-blown genocide?

… umm, sorry to say that, but I kinda didn’t find anything that convinced me that Russia wants to exterminate the Ukrainian people and their culture. There’s a magnitude of scale between bombing civilians and direct measures to eradicate a people.

Personally, I don’t really think it matters on a personal level if I’m killed by Russian bombs because they shell civilian infrastructure or if I’m killed on the battlefield because the Ukrainian government drafted me (against my will) and they didn’t want to give up control over Crimea, Donbasz and Donetsk.

So? I haven’t come across any of those “multiple, indepentent sources”. Care to share some of them? I’m genuinely curious. I’m about as happy to be codvinced as one can be learning about a supposed ongoing genocide.

I’m all ears.

Do you think that Russia is the only one doing propaganda?

That’s not because they’re pro Russia, but because the “far left” is anti-nationalist and both Ukraine and Russia are fighting for each their nationalist cause.

This is the n-th cartoon of this bland style.
