How can you argue against the statement "capitalism incentivizes abuse" by talking about communism? Note that I don't disagree with your notion that abuse is abundant in all human societies.
> It is literally impossible to view everything you say through all possible interpretations. There is no way that any single person can know every possible interpretation of what they say. 100% agreed. Don't see how it…
Funny; since you are right now bringing up this group of people to express indignation towards their behavior.
It's easy to offend without intending to, so I don't get how your intentions are relevant. Yes it can be annoying and difficult to consider the impact of your words and how they might be perceived by other, different,…
How do you make someone shut up in a social network?
I'm a roguelike enthusiast who's attempted to play HyperRogue many times but always get stuck on not understanding the geometry at all. Any tips from those who have?
Again, if you wanted to convey a specific meaning of consequences you probably should have just said that. There's a lot of consequences you're protected from, and even more that you're not protected from.
> Freedom to do a thing implies protection from consequence, or you're not free. This is a wild take on freedom. Do you seriously believe that free speech means that you should be able to say anything and be protected…
Legal free speech does not mean that a private company is obligated to host it.
Doing shady things? Is this a rephrasing of the "nothing to hide" argument?
Have you ever had a meeting where sensitive information was shared? Zoom meetings are like those, but with the sharing of sensitive information transmitted over the Internet. Someone could easily record their screen and…
They definitely exist, and can be installed to home screens. It is however a huge hurdle to user acquisition, which is the angle I was referring to. The obscurity of Gab kind of supports that point. All kinds of…
Regardless of hosting, Parler seems to be dead in the water given how much of the Internet is accessed via mobile devices, and Parler being banned from all (both) major app stores.
Because users have attendees leaking meetings and asking Zoom if there is any way to identify the leaker. This in turn informs Zoom that the ability to identify leakers is a desired feature for users. This might make…
That's a matter of opinion.
Can casting your one-every-four-years vote for a presidential candidate not be accurately construed as showing support? "I do not support this man but I did want him to be President, and cast my ballot for him" is a…

Like many others here I've tried more or less all of the productivity services and only one of them has actually stuck: Discord. I made a server called Diary, accessible only by me, and I have a few different channels…
As with every other attempt to "force people" to do something via UX limitations, I think that's doomed to fail. The whole notion of forcing users to change their behavior by placing obstacles in their way is futile in…
I hadn't heard of this, can you link a news story or something about it?
Buzzfeed News has always been decent in the sense that it is a serious journalism outfit.

I think we agree, and that makes sense.
Just genuine curiosity because I like this site and like how active you are in constructively moderating it: Why not simply ban people who have crossed the line this badly for this long? It certainly doesn't seem heavy…
You left out the "whatever it may be" part.
