most distros have something, yeah, generally called [something] monitor

Yeah nah

It looks just as similar to pretty much any desktop interface of the past 40 years, and openwindows isn't even the first thing with that design

I mean my mountain bikes run at a reccomended 50-80PSI, my road bike 60-120

I can also get up to about 40mph downhill on both (which should be a good indicator of rolling resistance/air resistance as it takes out the pedaling part), so that leads me to believe (given the rolling resistance info) that the actual biggest factor which makes the road bike so much easier to ride is weight (and gear ratios, but that's not relevant to e-bikes)

Yeah no, it's a list which targets Russian shills and which Russian shills want to discredit by making it seem strange and questionable.

Yes pretty much really using the right definitions, however there's different types of colonialism - the type where you make your own cities and push out the natives (eg Australia, most of the Americas) is gone, as is the type where you find a (nearly?) uninhabited area/island and use it to expand your influence in the area (eg. Mauritius and Singapore with 0 and 150 population at colonisation respectively) leaving only the type where you take over and control the administration of the existing population, eg in India, most of Africa, the USSR in Central Asia (among other places) and in neocolonialism

It's also hard to group them all together as "evil colonialism" too though as the 1st and 3rd are of course pretty evil, there's not a whole lot wrong with the 2nd

Oh damn I misremembered, my bad

Somehow I got mixed up by the fact that animal farm was anti-authoritarian, not anti-left

I think approximately 30 days off is pretty much standard in the developed world, with 23-27 of those being whenever and 3-7 being fixed public holidays (nyd, Christmas etc)

Sounds like you haven't invented Europe yet, even if you spring for a non-Eastern vareity it does make the price of dino juice, houses and cigarettes increase

Medicine

£110/year or so for unlimited medicine prescribed by a doctor

Health insurance

Who needs it

College

Usually free or at least heavily subsidised (even in places like the UK where you're paying £10k/year the government also plays about £5k-40k towards it depending on what course etc.)

My negative reaction to the post is due to "I don't feel like paying for it"

"I can't afford it", "I want to see if I can run it", "I don't support the restrictive drm" are all valid reasons to pirate in my opinion, but none of them appear to apply here and "I don't feel like paying" absolutely isn't, especially if they would buy it if they couldn't pirate it (which is the impression I get from the post).

In most cases calling piracy stealing/theft is stupid, but in these cases it actually is akin to shoplifting from a chain store

The issue is you'd still need humans to verify its correctness... It could come up with all sorts of new discoveries, some of which would be hugely groundbreaking, but a lot of which would be correct-sounding nonsense, just like AI at the present does with normal sentence... The issue with ML is that it doesn't really doubt itself, and anything that could would be a whole new technology, not just a hugely improved version of gpt4

Copyrights and patents
Used to collect the products of another person's labor

If you ask me it's the exact opposite... Copying someone else's work with no benefit to them removes a big driver for innovation.

This also only really applies with corporations - you could in theory have everyone be self-employed in a capitalist society

Except they usually won't answer your question, they'll just call you dumb and move on
