  • IIRC, the windows version of this is a setting where you can hit CTRL and it makes a moderately large circle that contracts towards the pointer. It’s been in since at least W7/Vista, possibly XP. I’ve used it on and off for years (especially with 3 27" monitors) because of how easy it is to lose the cursor.


  • Jumping a turnstile and taking a physical, actually scarce resource is not comparable to duplicating a digital, artificially scarce resource.

    The train requires ongoing maintenance and can only hold a finite amount of people. Taking the train seat for free takes away something from another person. Downloading media does not use any ongoing resources, and does not take anything away from another consumer.

    Comparing the morality of physical goods to digital goods are not really a good comparison specifically because of the artificial scarcity brought on by making something digital to try to make it more expensive doesn’t map to the real scarcity of physical goods.











  • None? People don’t starve to death in western countries. And where they do the issue is lack of infrastructure.

    “This thing doesn’t happen, and when it does, it’s not the fault of capitalism itself” is a monumentally stupid argument. Especially when talking about the homeless population, which absolutely does have people that starve.

    A communist government couldn’t conjure the resources needed to build that out of thin air either.

    And the capitalist economy chose not to build it because it wasn’t profitable, or after it was built, it was too expensive to be used.

    Fucking communist countries have killed how many millions of their own citizens?

    Bruh, centuries of capitalist exploitation of its citizens and treating them like a disposable commodity would like to have a word on the whole ‘citizens killed by their own country’ topic.

    How many thousands or millions of citizens die yearly because they can’t afford to live in this fucked up system?







  • Your bank should allow you to setup autopay alerts, I get them pretty regularly for mine (email stating ‘your auto pay to COMPANY is pending for $xxxx on yy/zz’) but I also don’t read them. And I have a budget setup so I know where that money is going to go this week anyway. And I check my accounts weekly to pay off my credit card so I see it there as well. Mainly because I have a reminder to do so.
