    > Many people don't want to accept the position that they were purposely insulting other people when these terms were in widespread use. True, but I think it's important to notice …

    You're right. My apologies. It is problematic and didn't think of the repercussions of translating my thoughts like that. I am capable of making mistakes, but don't mistake that fo…

    You just have to be realistic and contextual with the conversations you're entering in. In the above comments, I might as well very much seem like a virtue signaling SJW that would…

    I don't know, I can't speak for the people who's access is limited. However, I am Dutch and can say that these cultural sensibilities are far outside of just the "American" one. Th…

    I was definitely a _very_ late adopter of the program, but because it was so badly documented and seemingly dead even a few months ago I dropped it as well. I use https://fly.io no…
