nothing ever happens

but yeah, the story is a bit too perfect, it strains credulity a bit, but there’s nothing about it that is truly unbelievable

if you fucking leftists were smart you’d all agree with me, because i’m smart and i did a math that 99 is less than 100, that’s why im going to make the ethical choice, and vote for 99% hitler

Seriously I saw a comment the other day that was like, “Someone should explain utilitarianism to them”, like we all somehow discuss marxist theory without an understanding of baby’s first philosophical framework

This is a really comprehensive summary, thanks - I tell people I am a libertarian socialist when I don’t know if they’re cool enough to learn that I’m a anarcho-communist yet.

Yeah, this and “this is unrealistic, the world doesn’t just become a better place”. It’s a leftists cue that the other person is no longer capable of arguing based on the facts and evidence, and is just shutting down to protect themselves from cognitive dissonance. It is basically impossible to overcome.

If you don’t buy Honda because you support public transport, then you’re just buying Tesla. It’s simple ergonomics, sweaty.

That’s how every progressive movement starts, until activists make them reality. If it’s a good idea, it’s a good idea - and if that’s not the way that things are done, the question stops being “is this a good idea”, and starts being “how can we implement this good idea”.

Which, presumably, you’d also restrict people from walking on :P

Yeah, absolutely they should be forced to opening the platform more, worldwide.

For the same reason that people dangerously exceed speed limits.

I think you might have picked a bad community to share your sympathies for smooth car traffic, I’m afraid.

For what it’s worth, I think it’s reasonable enough to forbid pedestrians from crossing high-speed (60+ mph) roads, but otherwise they should have full right of way over any road, and fuck the cars. They can just be patient and deal with it.

They should apply to all platforms which have over a certain number of users, for sure. It’s not really a good idea imo to make it universally applicable because then you would end up with a situation where a hobbyist developer is legally required to deal with complying with all that legislation for their homebrew project with half a dozen users.

I believe that Apple has been given the same or similar, set of requirements from the EU, tried to soft-ball it by doing some bare minimum shit that the EU didn’t consider good enough, and is back in court over it.
