Luigi Mangione actually played Ross in Friends

Yeah you can. Lots of people chose not to vote because they knew their votes were too gerrymandered to matter.

You’re describing a gift economy, where people give labour and resources away for free. People are stuck between their instincts, which say to behave as if they’re in a gift economy, and their environment, which says to hoard resources for survival. Many people resolve the conflict between these competing systems by acting both cheap AND entitled. In a communist society, people would still be entitled, but they wouldn’t bother hoarding their cookies, because their job wouldn’t demand all the cookie baking time. So they’d act the way you describe.

Drag is very sorry to hear all that, and wouldn’t be surprised if you ended up with narcissism or a similar personality disorder from abuse like that.

Hey, you’re an ass man. I have this problem with my bum. Could you take a look?

A lot of people struggle to internalise how capitalism works, because it’s unnatural. In a natural communist society, you ask your friends and family for help with the things they’re good at, and they help you. But under capitalism, you need to sell your limited time and energy for money in order to survive, so you can’t afford to help your friends and family for free. This is confusing to many people, because their instincts are telling them to act like communists, the way human beings are supposed to.

You can solve this problem by joining the communist revolution and restoring our economy to its natural state.

Any moderator who bans violent speech should be treated by the users as corrupt, and their community should be avoided.

Is Scott Alexander a dickhead like Yudkowsky?

How hard is it to hire some 23 year old who just graduated in IT and ask them to do it? Static webpages aren’t hard, drag learned how to make them in high school.

Ferenginar

Paywall.

So you’re saying they want their heads polished by a man because women are unattainable? Interesting…

Too many cars. No more third place.

A lot of games rely on Windows system commands for things like displaying graphics, saving files, etc. Proton translates those commands into commands that Linux can understand. Proton doesn’t mimic the game. Proton mimics Windows.

Wine is not an emulator

Car drivers killing car drivers. Same old story.

So you’re honestly telling drag that this is a genuine quote from Jewish philosopher Epicurus?

Good point. Drag forgot that before the Roman Empire converted to Christianity the Greeks practiced Judaism

Polytheists don’t talk like that.

Well Epicurus clearly isn’t a Christian based on the time he was alive. Which is why drag said he wouldn’t talk like a monotheist. But you said drag was wrong, because Judaism existed. The only reason that’s a counterargument is if Epicurus was Jewish. If he wasn’t, then there’s no point to saying Judaism already existed, Epicurus wouldn’t have talked about the gods like a Jew would. He was a Hellenist.
