Completely dystopian.

For my academic work, I tend to use either Mac OS or Windows (not by choice unfortunately). Text editor would be Atom. I’m seeing some musings online that it’s possible to use Obsidian…

Do you use a specific software for zettlekasten? I’ve never heard of this method before, and as someone in the last year of PhD, I should really get a grip…

They didn’t add a tracking tag. They’re there by default.

So long as there is deniability for the company, yes. That’s why all their suppliers claim that there is no slavery practices in the production line, but even in depth audits aren’t sufficient in some cases.

Yeah that’s a good way to think about it.

Yeah I’m down to debate a little. I’m obviously getting some flak, but I just don’t understand how they can be for abortion to be allowed any time and then say that if the baby is in bad physical or mental condition, you shouldn’t because you’re doing something awful? It’s a contradictory claim.

I agree that it should be more clear, but I would swipe up to answer. Just makes more sense to me than swiping down.

While nationalistic ideologues seem to dominate the political violence in Japan and the US, it’s a bit disingenuous to assign blanket statements to these things.

I don’t get why people think Japan is bereft of political violence. It’s been a steady occurrence since the early 20th century (history: https://theconversation.com/shinzo-abes-killing-the-history-of-political-violence-in-japan-186679). Here are some recent occurrences from this article:

• 1990: Motoshima Hitoshi, was also the target of an unsuccessful assassination attempt by a right-wing extremist over public comments he made regarding Emperor Hirohito’s war responsibility https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1990-01-18-mn-323-story.html
• 2006: Senior Liberal Democratic Party politician Katō Kōichi’s home was subject to an arson attack by a right-winger angered by comments Katō had made critical of prime minister Koizumi Junichirō’s visit to Yasukuni shrine. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2007/06/01/national/kato-home-arson-nets-rightist-eight-year-term/

This whole comment chain is about how relying on the community to audit is a type of bystander problem. At least that’s how I understood it.

Also worthy of a mention: you need to be so proficient in so many languages to be able to actually audit the code yourself. It’s simply infeasible.

Respond to those people telling them that you were asking in good faith and the community cannot progress with responses like theirs. It’s destructive, and it’s gatekeeping.

Shot through the heart with a homemade gun. The shooter got two rounds off, so I’m assuming it was a 3D printed gun of some sort?

Edit: Nope, I’ve now heard from the times that it looked like a double barrel shotgun held together with black tape. Interesting!

Edit: Image of the shooter and his homemade weapon.

Pure fucking profit baby.

Thank god someone said it. We all knew it was true, but it’s nice to read such a well written article on the topic.

Why is this even a question. Of course not.

If you’re taking this stance then you must also take the stance that a baby with Down Syndrome would not survive on it’s own in a pre-modern, natural selectionist era. Keeping it alive, nurturing and caring for it until you die, and then having them cared for through an institution until they die is extremely unnatural. Why would you bring someone into this life if they’re doomed to suffer? That seems awful to me. I’m sure we’ll just have to agree to disagree, but I can’t see the logic in it.

Just went through my purchases, and here are some of my favorite. Mostly RPG/MMORPG but with a few others in there:

DYSMANTLE, Hyper Light Drifter, Stardew Valley, Dead Cells, Chrono Trigger, Northgard, Getting Over It, Sid Meier’s Civilization VI, Titan Quest HD, League of Legends Wild Rift, Star Traders: Frontiers
