No, you’re definitely allowed. Otherwise you’d have had your comments removed from the public discourse.
The up and downs just gauge public approval to the comment. Remember, you’re also free to up and down vote to voice your disagreement.
Also remember, if you think everyone around you are assholes then likely you’re the asshole.
Edit: I just saw your other comment on the lack of variety of posts. Be the change you want to see. Find something interesting and make a post!
Hang on. I just scrolled down the comments list for a couple of minutes and didn’t see anyone calling anyone else a Nazi or a fascist. What are you going on about?
And YouTube is a company. They don’t believe in anything except increasing shareholder value. It’s got nothing about far left or whatever. Gender identity isn’t even a far left idea, unless your Overton window is skewed.
Also, you’ve just sort of outed yourself unnecessarily as an ignorant bigot in a left leaning community with your statement:
Just because someone doesn’t want to play the gender tip toe dance, doesn’t mean they’re nazis
Of course they’re not Nazis. No one’s calling them a Nazi. They’re calling that someone a bigot.
Actually, it seems that people here are more concerned about companies not sticking to the far left ideology
Actually, it’s people who are concerned about companies kowtowing to a fascist regime, the Trump government.
Tell me where has he been?
Hmm. Missing Everclear.
Agreed but the alternatives are not much better for me. I also use Dialux Evo which is much, much better at rendering but it’s extremely Euro centric and you can’t easily make a template for Australian standards. There’s Relux which I tried using but I didn’t want to pay for yet another license just to practice and get better at using it.
Unfortunately, for us Australian lighting designers, there’s not a lot of options. It’s a gag in the industry where if you hear someone yelling “FUCK!!” out of nowhere, AGI has crashed.
I am! Looking for a distro that I can use AGI32 on. It already crashes consistently on Windows for large projects and I reckon it’ll do worse on wine.
I also use substance painter a lot but I reckon moving into a FOSS alternative will be a good move for that. Wean myself off Adobe dependency. Unless it works in wine but I’ve been told anything Adobe or Autodesk can’t run in wine.
It’s always been ridiculous to me that what is essentially a forum has shareholders. That’s why I left Reddit during the app debacle and haven’t looked back.
Flip side: how would you feel if you shared your most vulnerable, intimate moments with one trusted person, only to realise that you’ve been recorded, shared around and commented on in a group chat full of acquaintances?
Can you see how Derek just delivered karmic justice?
Teams has been successful in detecting my headphones and mics 20% of the time. So, my alternative is to go on my phone and also my laptop (but mute myself) so I can share my screen during meetings. Windows detects my headphones and mics just fine in other applications, like Zoom or Discord. It’s a pain in the ass.
Oh, I don’t think they’re taking about Derek…
Definitely 2. Sharpening is such a nice break from writing.
Yes and you do temporarily while waiting judgement in the cupboard.
I would call the cops and let them put you on trial, obviously.
Also, I would’ve been able to see that you’ve come from the neighbour’s house, which is not as nice as mine. If it turns out in trial that you just wanted to escape the poverty of next door and want to sell your labor, hell yeah I’d pay. You can mow my lawn.
And who makes those laws? And for what purpose? Is it to curb the incoming illegal migrants? Doesn’t seem to work. Many people are crossing the border to look for work and are actually successfully integrating with their new society. Shouldn’t the law allow for legal transition rather than keeping them as illegal immigrants? Shouldn’t there be legal pathways to citizenship? Shouldn’t it be easy for those on visas to check when their papers will be expired to prevent being in the country illegally?
The border isn’t a walk in the park to cross either. If you don’t die in the river, you’ll likely die in the desert. If it’s so high risk, what’s the reward worth? Why even bother crossing?
Wow. Ok. Before I go on, can I just say that your world view is extremely messed up. I’d tell you to go get it checked but I know the US healthcare system is broken.
First of all, if they’re not confirmed, how do you know that they are serial killers and human traffickers? The colour of their skin? How many tattoos they have? What evidence or procedure, other than a visual inspection, would make you believe that they are what you think they are?
Secondly, if they were awaiting trial, they’d be waiting in an enclosed space away from the general public as a precaution. Isn’t it meant to be the American judicial mantra that everyone is innocent until proven guilty and that everyone has a right to a fair trial?
Thirdly, what if you’re a serial killer or human trafficker? How would you prove otherwise if you were deported immediately? Or would you become one anyway since others have already decided for you?
Ahem, alleged serial killers and human traffickers.
None of those deported got a fair trial.
Basically, it’s about the leadership.
Boeing leadership used to be exclusively the engineers who have worked their way up. They knew the ins and outs of every step, what works and what doesn’t work, and therefore had a huge focus on safety because they weren’t profit driven.
Then they brought in someone who wasn’t an engineer and things immediately went south. I want to be cheeky and say that MBAs ruin everything because that way of management takes everything human out of management. Making that line constantly go up forever is the issue.
So, for a company to produce products that actually work, you need leadership who isn’t profit driven and who actually has experience at all levels of production.
Could we move away from calling it hallucinations as that would imply thinking? We should call it for what it is - bullshit.
Oooh! I had this back in the day. It was absolutely fantastic. I would love for this to come back again. I miss physical buttons and being able to do everything on the phone with one hand.
