If you don’t like automation in video games then I trust you’re opposed to IntelliSense-style refactoring, IDEs in general, and in fact that you work through every single instruction executed by the computer in your own head.

Because it’ll be half-baked and one-off.

Try explaining that to your mom and then think about why most people think linux is to complicated.

So? Is it so common that it’s wrong to say the word without the connotation?

It can do, but that’s no basis on which to say “they weren’t a medic”. You can correctly call a physician a medic.

Jesus, Novara media, which I’d never heard of before joining the fediverse, is a pile of shite, isn’t it?

I’d just leave the word out! Or maybe “kind of”. Or “semantic” is an option but I’m not sure about it.

You’re just repeating your assertion that the time taken for Ofcom to act against X is due to improper influence but haven’t given any evidence. What examples are you thinking of where Ofcom has acted quickly? This controversy has, I believe, been going on for three weeks, prominently only for one.

The Online Safety Act specifies time limits for responses from services, and those time limits themselves vary from a week to several months. Ofcom also publishes updates on its investigations and the one I’m familiar with - Imgur - took months to do anything.

You’re making excuses for CSAM distributed by the richest man in the world, why?

Take me through your line of reasoning here: I don’t think Ofcom is giving Twitter special treatment; ???; therefore I’m making excuses for CSAM? Please do fill in the missing steps.

I don’t think that’s true. The act is enforced through ofcom which takes its sweet time.

That quote about conservativism is pithy bollocks. Conservativism is about protecting the status quo, nothing else. If you believe the quote then you’ll look very cool in front of your cynical friends, but also misattribute motives every which way.

There are tons of small sites available in the UK which violate the OSA but fly under the radar due to their small size, so this kind of conspiracy brain thinking just doesn’t hold water.

The act is what the government are threatening Twitter with…

The fact that you think that a comic about one man is generalising men is where you need to correct your thinking.

You don’t mean “etymological sense”; only one of these is the correct etymology

It’s not sexist to acknowledge or talk about it though. This comic isn’t advocating sexism. The comic itself is not sexist; it features sexism.

If you read the commentary, opinion on ice was already bad. So it was the line for some people, yes, but many others no.

Then you’d be back to having to date an icky girl, you fool!

Motherfucker doesn’t understand you get things named after you by people who respect you after you’re gone, not by your own decision. Classless moron.

Having sold a few things online, it’s fairly common for one person to chat online and another to have over/receive the money. The person chatting is the person who is most interested in the item; the person handing over is the person who has the time on the day.

Terrorise brown people. It doesn’t matter if they end up being released, they were locked up for 3 weeks, probably beaten up a couple of times - when they’re released the jobs been done. For now, until it gets worse. It can always get worse.
