German law also requires you to take a half hour break in the middle of a >6h work day.

2nd panel: in 2010, I think jellyfin didn’t exist yet, so there are now better ways to own media, too

Since you mentioned LocalSend: https://syncthing.net/. It’s a way to sync files between devices. And since I bring my phone wherever I go, that means it works seamlessly for me.

All you said also applies to Linux!

Guilt means that someone did something that’s morally wrong. Everyone who isn’t a fucking Nazi would agree that punching fascists is morally laudable, yet it’s a crime you can get convicted for.

You’d then have done it without being guilty of anything.

I’m sorry if that sounded dismissive, I wanted to convey that horror stories are always overrepresented, not that there aren’t valid ones.

I see this as an absolute win.

You mistrust doctors because they’re not educated in psychology. The horror stories are 1. stories and 2. even the ones describing real events are flushed into your feed because they’re outrageous.

Fully automated luxury queer space communism, in the sense it was conceived at (as opposed to you interpreting the words yourself), instantly, with everybody’s belief system magically adapting as if they had lived in this new society for a few decades. As a result, everyone adapts immediately, without negative result on anyone’s mental or physical health, and without anyone being brainwashed or changed in a way they wouldn’t have naturally changed if they had time to experience living in a community that they can trust and that cares about them.

In other words: Iain M. Banks’ Culture decides to bring Earth in, but magically instantly.

That’s awesome. Humanity will eventually figure it out, but it’ll be literally impossible to concentrate power.

Ironic, you’re describing a strawman version of it. The writing in the beginning might have sine resemblance to it, but if becomes something very different.

100%. I’m just saying that on Windows an Mac, the inferior “download an installer” model is still prevalent, and that |sh is as safe as that.

I hate this model, but if you trust the website, piping to shell is exactly as safe as downloading and executing a installer. (Yeah yeah, https, function executed on last line, etc)
