The war crime is when Hamas and Hezbollah fire rockets indiscriminately into Israel to kill innocent civilians. Any and all means are and will always be justified to prevent that.

The "legal way to wage war" is only relevant when you are waging war against an army. Hezbollah is not an army, it's a terrorist group. It attacks civilians. It doesn't wear unifor…

It isn't overcharging on Mobile either IMO but the difference is pretty obvious: there is only one way to get your app onto an iPhone or an Android and that's through those stores.…

Steam is not a natural monopoly.

Amazon sold products at a loss for years in order to capture market share, then raised prices. That is blatant abuse of market power

"Monopoly" is a distraction. The issue is abuse of market power. Having market power is fine. You can't punish people for being successful. Steam doesn't abuse being successful to …

Indie game development largely owes its existence to Steam. I know I would spend a lot less on indie games if I had to buy them from their own websites or, god forbid, through an a…

In one quote they used glossy to describe it. How does that mean they said that glossiness made it better? The other quote is just a list of ways in which the screen is better. It …

It is well written and that makes you think it was written by AI? AI doesn't write as well as that anyway.

I'm talking about the user interface, not how difficult it to click a button to do basic actions. VS is incredibly cluttered. Too many buttons, cryptic icons and entirely unclear h…

The game isn't balanced at all. Are you playing the modern version or something? I'm talking about D&D which was always traditionally a roleplaying game and not a rollplaying game.…

Programming well requires taste and creativity. A different type, but no less rare than taste and creativity in "arty" fields.

Clearly this is not true. Photoshop is difficult to use. I have opened it and tried to use it many times. Its UI is super complicated. There are endless buttons and I have no idea …

And why exactly should free software prioritise someone's first five minutes (or first 100 hours, even) over the rest of the thousands of hours they might spend with it? I see peop…

Why should they work for pay on free software? Nobody expects to be paid to work on the software itself. Yet artists expect to be treated differently. If it is your job, then go do…

You didn't mention it explicitly or otherwise. Why lie? That's such a weird thing to do. I can read your comment and catch you in the lie so easily. Free will is the entire point. …

It isn't a board game. Maybe that's your problem. It is a roleplaying game. The mechanics of spellcasting aren't very important because combat just isn't very important. Most peopl…

Referring to books as "dead trees" is such a pathetic thought-terminating cliché. If you don't want to cart books around that's fine but you can easily play the game with only the …

Book opening is fine. Post-it notes exist. You can easily open the book to the right spell. Just write down the names of the spells you have chosen to memorise for the day on a pie…

You appear to be saying that we have no free will because our choices are decided by us and we are the result of our environments. Your self-modifying code argument is that the res…
