I am absolutely SHOCKED, I did not expect this in a million years. Why would I ever have any reason to believe the government isn't telling me the truth? And, as a law-abiding citi…

That's very silly. Between all of the people capable of spying on you, it's exactly your own country that has the most ability to harm you. The Chinese government can't arrest you …

>I fully support that if I put something on the internet and I am the creator of such content, I should be allowed to remove that content I created if I wish. I disagree. Whatever …

I almost never discuss anything important with people outside of extremely close and likeminded friends because of the current political climate. I worry about being ostracized/ali…

you missed the part where they broke all my extensions which will apparently literally never be ported due to missing API functionality

i don't want a cultural revolution!!!! please god no!!!!!

Political trickery? In tech? Surely you must be joking.

That would be good, except that if you told anyone about it, they'd probably be horrified.

The title of this is extremely amusing to me because I've only ever thought of online moderators as basically the lowest form of life, almost exclusively petty tyrants and ego-trip…

Isn't it extremely obvious that getting someone else to hold the bag for you reduces your own risk?

Alternatively, it's exactly because modern people would be horrified at what those three groups agree on that it is an excellent argument.

The idea that the citizens of the United States are somehow responsible for what their illegitimate government does is ridiculous. The people who actually will have to physically c…

Uh, people have their livelihoods destroyed and lives ruined for having unpopular views all the time. James Watson literally had to sell his Nobel prize because he was destitute, C…

One use is for things like OpenGL, where there's no specific library called "opengl", since every hardware vendor provides their own implementation.

You also need another computer, which kind of defeats the purpose. That's like saying you don't need wine when you have VNC.

Rallying against objectively "fake" news doesn't do anything about the much more serious problem of the way that mainstream news is less than truthful in more subtle ways, such as …

What a dreadful name.

Ideological convictions are not the same as smoking or child porn. Proving that smoking is wrong is easy. Proving that an entire ideology is wrong is not even possible, because "ri…

Yes, you're right, as long as it's not the government's boot grinding my face into the pavement, then everything is fine.

It's more than just the absence of a like/dislike system, visibility of posts is directly determined by how much discussion they generate - for threads this means its position on t…

Why on earth wouldn't someone looking for a job where 90% of the people are males advertise mainly to people that are also males? Also, I didn't know being advertised at was a civi…

>It's as if these people had never heard of the Streisand Effect. It's not that they don't know about it, it's that the quote in question is an overt threat and the entire point of…
