  1. Those nazis on Linus Torvalds On Linux's Code of Conduct (bbc.com) · · Score: 0

    They thrive off political correctness, every obvious anti-white post is used by em like a weapon to paint the narrative that there is a white genocide in progress.
    That definition of "privilege plus power" popularized by the book White awareness: Handbook for anti-racism training that is used as an excuse by the far left is pretty much a godsend for a movement that was previously tiny and ridiculed.
    So, keep using it if you want more nazis.
    But now if you want to make the world better, judge people by who they are and the situation they're in, instead of trying to oversimplify the the thing by literal racial divisions.

  2. I think it would be a lot saner to just burn the documents.

  3. Given the fact they're already using it to commit witch hunts against one or more of the biggest contributors or the project, yes, it's quite bad.
    When dealing with this literal cult, it's not about "you will behave for now", it's about "we gonna check every message you ever sent and if we find something we find offensive, we will hunt you down and kill like a dog".
    This is not about left or right or communism or whatever, it's a literal cult that calls itself the left (when its just a tiny part of the actual left) and ruins the life of everyone that dares not following their exact gospel.

  4. Re:WTF is wrong with this? on Linux Community To Adopt New Code of Conduct (kernel.org) · · Score: 1

    Social justice is not about seeking true equality, it's about collectivizing people by their races and genders, then putting those in an "oppression stack", where the ones that are in an "oppressed group" get systemic advantages over the others in a very crude attempt to equalize the things.
    While it in most cases have a good intention in mind, it's still a quite terrible way to do things as you will injustice countless of people.
    Add the point that in many cases this movement push down people "with privileges" instead of pulling up the "oppressed" and you get a quite terrible system.

  6. There are actual SJWs and they do make your life hell and fire people based on the color of their skins etc..
    But this is not the case.

  7. It don't exactly get into SJW territory.
    Read it and compare to the FreeBSD one to see how a SJW CoC looks like.

  8. Re:What you can do and can't do on US Lawmakers Say AI Deepfakes 'Have the Potential To Disrupt Every Facet of Our Society' (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    Compress your videos with Mpeg or similar.
    If someone overlay something over your video, even if it's a "deepfake" you still can, as it's done with pictures check for differences on the compression artifacts.

  10. Re:Better idea: on EU To Give Internet Firms 1 Hour To Remove Extremist Content (go.com) · · Score: 1

    Leave the content up, get a bald/bearded guy, infiltrate him into the group and as soon he have enough evidences, everyone goes to jail.
    It's completely incredible that there is any sort of radical group that don't have a police plant in it.

  11. It seems like the EU wants to be blocked on EU To Give Internet Firms 1 Hour To Remove Extremist Content (go.com) · · Score: 2

    If they keep going like this with those completely unreasonable demands and articles, basically all websites will block the EU countries completely.

  12. Every right you take from a "nazi" is also taken from you.

  15. Re:"Scientists" on Scientists Warn the UN of Capitalism's Imminent Demise (vice.com) · · Score: 2

    Something i feel the complete lack of are scientists trying to create a better system.
    People either just stick with capitalism and all it's defects, or try to force a system that was more than proven to not work, the communism.
    No one sits down and comes up with a new design and test it with simulations and proofs etc etc etc..
    Marx didn't even had computers back then, or as good human behavior knowledge, but now we have those things, yet we don't use em.

  17. Re:DRM doesn't work on GOG Launches FCKDRM To Promote DRM-Free Art and Media (torrentfreak.com) · · Score: 1

    It have the option, but it's not what made steam an effective tool against piracy.

  18. Re:DRM doesn't work on GOG Launches FCKDRM To Promote DRM-Free Art and Media (torrentfreak.com) · · Score: 4, Interesting

    There is a piece of software that harms piracy.
    It's called steam/gog and it does work by making the original games as good or better than the pirate version by allowing you to get it as easily as the pirate version and having dedicated servers etc..
    But when you put DRM in a game, you make the pirate game better again, and you really don't want to make the pirate game better than the original game.

  19. That's the problem, you can't actually learn what hate speech is because it's not clearly defined, specially where it matters, on the TOS.
    Also they don't need to flag you specifically for the anti corporate post and could instead just dig something that could be twisted to fit into hate speech and "get you" with that.

  20. My uncle works at nintendo on People Keep Trying To Scam Their Way Into Free Video Games (kotaku.com) · · Score: 1

    And he told me i can get free nintendo games at this store!

  21. It's not defined anywhere and kept vague on purpose so it can be used to persecute anyone that go against the group.
    And when it gets taken over, it will be kept just as vague.

  22. Re:"Conservative speech" on President Trump Says It is 'Very Dangerous' When Companies Like Twitter Regulate Own Content (reuters.com) · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Hate speech is a vague term that can mean anything, but it's definition is generally enforced by the one that screams the loudest until a corporation take control of it, then everything they don't like will be hate speech.
    Bad mouth Comcast for delivering 1/100 of the advertised speed? hate speech. Complain about the apple device that blew your face up? hate speech.
    They're just letting you build the tools they will use to fuck you later.

  23. It probably would if people actually sat down and used simulations and computers and science to come with a better system, instead of trying to force one that proven over and over again being even worse than capitalism.

  24. Re:They let it burn because it's California on Should the US Air Force Bomb Forest Fires? (popularmechanics.com) · · Score: 1

    The problem in US is that the collectivization did hit the political party that was opposing Trump.
    When something that dumb hit the powerful people, the damage is quite very big.

  25. Re:They let it burn because it's California on Should the US Air Force Bomb Forest Fires? (popularmechanics.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Oversimplifying and collectivizing people is what made the annoying orange be the president in first place, and what makes the far left be so fucking lunatic (as is the thing that makes the far right be fucking lunatic as well).
    So better start to treat people individually or get plowed by the "exception".
    You have to remember that 1% of the US population is still 3.4 million people, and many simplifications made by both sides assume that groups of like 10% don't actually exist.
