In my opinion (which might be wrong) your duty as a parent is to equip your kid with the tools it needs to be able to face the challenges life throws at him/her. What would make yo…

Probably a more accurate statement would be: "So they got scared and jumped the gun and in so doing risked ruining someones life in an attempt to protect the Scala community."

He probably meant text. Which is what I had in mind when I asked the question too. Text is way cheaper than audio and you can opt in audio after an text ice breaker.

Why only voice chat?

Didn't find any mention of capitalism here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulatory_capture . Not sure on what basis you make this statement.

I mean, it would be stupid if the government involved itself into the market to not take advantage of that. What exactly are you proposing? That a company would want the competitor…

So you're saying if you try to build a product, fail and want to acquire that product from another company - now that you have 0 competition with that product - that should somehow…

I don't know exactly how you define markets or capitalism but I'm pretty sure when small tribes meet and exchanged merchandise (money was not even a thing then) that's a text book …

That's fine. I can negotiate my own breaks and days of work. Maybe I need 1 break and I want to work the full week cause I need the money. If I want what the union is offering, I c…

To me this sounds weird. I'm from Eastern Europe, no strong unions there by the way so it must be a West/North Europe kind of thing. I understand unions fighting for people who joi…

> But should it? How would it work if it wouldn't? He explains what he means by that. If you spend time and resources on all things the users require and your run out of money and …

Doesn't this contradict your previous statement where you defined rape as "forcing someone to have sex against their will"? Is having sex with a 12 years old despicable and morally…

I wanted to say exactly this (the first part, I don't care enough about Stallman to have any kind of opinion about him). In plenty of countries in the world (including UK) the age …
