My globe has the USSR, a very different looking Europe, Ceylon, Formosa and tons of colonies on it. Thanks for that thing, grandpa.

Difference is, I get to eat my McNuggets.

Don’t forget Grayjay.

That’s pretty horrifying. The perfect dystopia waiting for collapse when a server fails or a there is a network outage or infection.

ebay? If you can get an IBM P77 or Sony G220 (they are the same) in good working condition you should be golden. Those are awesome. They go up 170Hz, 75Hz at 1600x1200. And can even do 2048x1536 although that would be out of specs and only 60Hz (barely usable but fucking impressive).

They do hum and buzz.

Those are on the graphics adapter. Not in the CRT.
You can update the framebuffer faster than the CRT can draw. That’s when you get tearing. Same VSync then as now.

I’m anti-authoritarianism

That’s a good one.

I’m just pro-kindness

dehumanizing people by stating they have no value is pro-kindness. News to me.

You understand how that could feel bad, right?

No, still think you are wrong. Have you heard black folk talk to each other, do they feel bad?

I know someone who would have been described as retarded in the past. I asked him, he doesn’t mind, he doubts any sane person with his disability would mind.
So stop being retarded yourself and stop advocating for groups you are not a part of that don’t want none of your screeching.

Coming into this instance, and stinking up the place. Other admins would have defederated, good thing we have a great admin.
(yes, hyperbole)

not because the people there are valuable.

How is attempting to be polite radical?

I think I have heard enough. Careful you might be a case for /c/meanwhileongrad

If you truly think I have to listen to you you’re more delusional than I thought. I believe in IDIC. Just because I don’t understand the way you think doesn’t mean you aren’t valuable.

Protarded actually exists as a slang

Interesting. Always new stuff to be learned.

Are you hallucinating? What does anything you wrote have to do with what I said?

Maybe you should de-radicalize yourself, or idk, meet normal people irl.

surprisingly the opposite is advanced timing, protarded isn’t a word.
There is retrograde <> prograde but only Kerbal players know what it means ;)

That would foster a bad community and may cause actual harm to people though, so we all recognize that it’s wrong.

I guess we’ll have to disagree on that. Since no one would be forced to participate no one should be harmed.
I am sure as an enjoyer of c/greentext you can appreciate the comedic value of such an unmoderated cesspool.

When someone affected chimes in and actual harm is potentially caused I might reconsider my foul mouth. I am not going to censor myself proactively to goose step in line. Every word we give up to whoever “uses it wrong” gives them power. I am not going to do that.

Good talk. Thanks for taking the time.

OK, I don’t think c/greentext is the proper environment to discuss this.

If you are that worked up about words you must lead a pretty good life.
I think I have used the Internet for too long to get upset about getting slurs hurled at me online. People are much more vile when cloaked by the anonymity of their keyboard. It’s been like that since Usenet and BBSs. That’s human nature. You’re free to not interact.
But trying to police stuff you don’t like just because “is enforcing your beliefs”. Nobody will be harmed by edgy comments under a post about 4chan. Not everyone is out to get you and needs to be canceled.

So the nazis didn’t disappear people who said the wrong thing? And people wouldn’t say the thing out of fear something might happen to them?

How different is that really? Did I use hyperbole? Sure. I still don’t like it when people tell me how to speak my mind.

You might be surprised that your sprinkler system has a retard chamber. Also you can still order it under that name.

Nah, speech police is just a disguised form of fascism.

Let’s say I don’t envy you. No hard feeling. More like admiration for finding a way. ;)
Do you have a phone, tablet or chromebook? I’d figure pirating on Android is a bit more cumbersome. Do you have total commander? Or how do you extract RARs?

You didn’t say what content you were after. I am guessing movies and tv?

DDG, Google

Those are censored. You could try Yandex. It has some scam sites but much better results.

OS - Android

Oof.

Taking something from Walmart removes the item. This can increase prices for other shoppers and has consequences.

Duplicating/downloading a movie or a games does not. It just creates an identical copy and removes nothing.

Those are not really two things you can compare. I am totally OK with the latter, I consider the former unlawful. I can still go and buy a license to pirated content if I feel it’s worth it after I consumed it. I guess Walmart would be very confused if you came back to pay for the banana you stole a week ago because you did enjoy it. Might even get you into trouble.

EDIT: And you’re right, it doesn’t make sense that piracy is illegal. The law should be changed. At least the punishment is ridiculous.
