People who say that woke is always bad are wrong. People who say that woke is always great are wrong. The concept is being used for cynically manipulating people to be at each others’ throats all the time because that’s how fucked up shit companies make amazing amounts of money these days apparently.
Dunno how lemmy plays into all this, probably by cargo culting what those shit companies were doing.
The Bible specifically allows killing as an act of war and considers it different from murder. The protagonists of the book also steal stuff all the time.
These commandments are for controlling behavior inside a society, not outside of it.
Trump is a senile and a deeply unserious person. His existence makes me believe that souls might exist because he very much seems like a person without one. He doesn’t think about his actions deeply which is why I believe that if he suddenly turned religious, I don’t think much would change.
Would it be better if he was, though?
It’s weird when two horrible entities in the world hate each other. Is it popcorn time?
Sure, of course, and not liking things can be done without psychoanalyzing the author and it does not require feeling superior to them or ridiculing them.
Possibly the only thing more annoying than Yudkowsky are the anonymous online people who think they figured him out. Many of them are in these threads.

Content = ecstacic when you compare it to the general public these days.
Possible, I guess, although I have 32GB RAM + 8GB swap and I wasn’t doing anything out of the ordinary at the time.
Both the hardware and software (fedora 42 running cosmic desktop) are kinda cutting edge, so I think an honest crashing bug is more likely.
Fun coincidence, when I was about to write a supporting comment to this thread, my Fedora 42 running on X1 Carbon hard froze without any apparent reason and I had to hard reboot it.
For me Linux surpassed the Windows desktop experience in 1996 and even though Windows 2000 was a pretty good upgrade, I don’t think it has surpassed desktop Linux yet. Windows 10 was not bad either, but now that has gone mostly downhill whereas Linux has merely plateaud at worst or has been improving slowly at best.
If you’re not humblebragging, perhaps you oughta get a Linux-preinstalled laptop like System76.
If you were humblebragging, check out https://fedoraproject.org/workstation/ and get the Plasma edition.
Well, in a democracy it’s important that people who want this can try to make it happen via official procedure, which this is.
That said, the people who want this are assholes and probably in bed with Russia.
I don’t know about you, but the amount of self-control I have varies hugely during a typical month. So when I have more self-control, I can choose to help myself during the times when I have less.
I suppose the hit on Bin Laden couldn’t have been launched without significant presence in Afghanistan. Why you stayed there after that though was weird. That seems to have been Obama’s mistake.
I would like to take this opportunity to remind everyone to go watch the movie Sinners. Reward the artists.
More than many people did, though. Including you.
When what you think you are aware of is not exactly true.
