Do you know, the farm takes up most of my time and after that I just like to have a cup of tea, I don’t know how much time I can devote to this whole “racism” thing.

I DON’T CARE AS LONG AS I GET TO HAVE A GO AT THE GREEKS!!!

It’s funny coming from the Plex thread into this; ~100% of people who keep using Plex do so because it’s centralised and it makes sharing their library with their network of family and friends easier.

The truth is; a lot of us feel like we need more internet accounts about as much as we need genital warts. Part of the reason GitHub got successful was the fact that you only needed to register once and you had access to fork and PR all the repos on there.

Decentralisation is great for self hosting things for, well, yourself and your household, but it’s got hefty downsides. Account creation is a friction point for others to join and collab.

Isn’t that kinda exactly what the OP was saying with their comment about MBAs realising they have non-paying users?

I don’t run Plex so I don’t know, but from your comment it sounds like the Plex Pass isn’t “all past, present and future premium features”?

Or were you theorising about a future where they do ask you to pay more?

This is the most sane take I’ve read in this entire debacle. Between arguing the semantics of attestation vs verification and whether we need five hundred forks and PRs, I’m glad to read this.

The biggest mistake the original PR did was not make it more clear it’s not directly because of the laws themselves, it’s to support higher level systems that may want to or need to comply. Systemd is no more complying with any present or future laws than a keyboard manufacturer is violating the law if the user uses it to type racially motivated hate speech.

Can you please elaborate on how someone died “because of this” in the context of the rest of your message? I am genuinely curious, because 100% of stories I’ve heard of loss of life involving the concept of transgenderism has been teenagers/young adults committing suicide as a result of having their entire support system taken away overnight because they express themselves differently than their assigned gender at birth.

I would also challenge the concept of anyone “pushing” transgenderism on children, because I have seen exactly 0 evidence for this, but I also understand that “pushing” is a subjective term, not a scientific one.
