explodicle,

I want to keep him alive, but everyone stops talking about him online, and when he tries to speak IRL everyone shushes him.

explodicle,

To be fair, tons of delicious foods do just that.

The frequency of strawman and slippery slope accusations tells us more about how people usually think than how people usually argue.

explodicle,

I disagree! It’s best to not use Brave since it’s a front for a homophobe.

explodicle,

What’s the 2024 election going to change? It’s very unlikely that we’ll get any better than Biden.

explodicle,

Then how is the election “flushing” anything?

explodicle,

We don’t strongly disagree here - we’re both protecting our online privacy by bouncing that traffic around a little, through either a VPN or Tor.

We’re betting our freedom on the assumption that the bad guys won’t compromise each hop. It’s easier for them to compromise PornHub and then my VPN than it is to compromise each LN hop. So Monero won’t make my wanking any safer; the dick police will just go after the weakest link.

The value overflow incident was a bug that allowed some dude to give himself a bazillion bitcoins. It was caught and fixed before he spent any.

Just use Lightning and you’ll have literally the same onion routing as Tor. Monero doesn’t hide your IP address or dates either.

If there’s ever an inflation bug in Monero (like the value overflow incident), it will go undetected.

explodicle,

Where I live, the police only do something about it if they’ve been called multiple times and are annoyed. Which just encourages people to report it immediately instead of when they actually need the noise to stop.

explodicle,

I don’t own a business, and assume you understood what I actually wrote.

But let’s say I did own a business. In that case, you’re right to point out that providing a restroom unilaterally would make each business owner worse off. That’s why it would require a tax incentive, not just asking nicely.

The homeless are going to poop somewhere. They don’t have money for pay toilets. Wherever they go will require cleanup, and it’s better for everyone if that’s a restroom than if it’s the sidewalk.

The people doing the abusing here are not the homeless.

explodicle,

Hot take: businesses should have to pay much higher taxes if they don’t have public (including the homeless) restrooms. The default is being allowed to go wherever we want, and now they just expect you to go “somewhere else”.

explodicle,

But you just replied to them

explodicle,

If inflation is our metric, then Democrats have been in agreement with Republicans ever since the Nixon Shock.

Bbbut we just need to buy time for [insert other thing that hasn’t been working]!

explodicle,

Wait, really? I just assumed it went from my phone to the tower, and then all solid wires from there.

explodicle,

I suspect soon they’ll remove voting altogether, replaced by a measure of how long it held attention.

explodicle,

Those things look tiny! I don’t know where the idea is going in the first place, and I need lots of space for bad ideas and wrong turns.

explodicle,

Yet Democrats won’t expand the Supreme Court because “it’ll set a precedent”.

explodicle,

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:PartyVotes-Presidents.png, with the generous assumption that the threat of party replacement hasn’t influenced policy positions whatsoever.

So in today’s elections, one might point to Democrats who are increasingly opposed to FPTP.

explodicle,

Everybody here: “lol he means those other assholes”
