I found this discussion that has some reasoning from the creator as well as workarounds by users.

What does SME refer to in this context?

Of course. How much has Larry Ellison given to TBI at this point?

A Google employee claimed in 2022 that they had sentient AI. He was sacked. What were his motivations? Do you believe he was right?

They aren’t a homogenous group. They don’t all believe this. The “AI will kill us all” narrative just sells really well.

When trying to organise colleagues you need to exercise a certain level of trust or it will never get off the ground. Unfortunately boot lickers will take advantage of that. It’s to be expected.

I really enjoy your posts. Thank you! Are you a local or a traveller?

Socialist ideas predate Marx. Look up Robert Owen for example. Engels talks about earlier socialist philosophies in “Socialism: Utopian and Scientific”. It’s not a very long book and it’s an interesting read. I think it’s an extract from a longer work.

Often conflated but Marx and Engels themselves draw a distinction between socialism and communism. They consider socialism a stepping stone to communism.

As I say, liberals believe in capitalism by definition. The impact of your vote once every few years in an election under this system pales in comparison to the influence that the owner class have due to their wealth and power. This is fundamental. This is why you get all the anti-liberal sentiment from anti-capitalists.

Furthermore you talk about convincing some percentage of voters in order to change the system. The early turnout figure for this election is 54% and that’s considered high… What of the non voters?

There may be a gap here in the definition of “liberal”. Liberalism is a political philosophy that also encompasses most traditional conservatives. It is different from the colloquial usage. It’s loosely defined as the belief in individual freedoms, including the right to private property. It is inherently capitalist and therefore socialists, communists and anarchists generally do not consider them to be of the left.

What I am saying is that based on this twitter spat I would not call her a holocaust denier. You are free to make your own judgment.

Thanks for the source although I think that’s quite specific. It seems mostly about her being ignorant and doubling down on her war against trans people rather than a blanket denial of the holocaust which the term “holocaust denier” conjures

Your article frames it this way:

While Rowling has not denied the Holocaust itself happened, she is accused of engaging in a form of Holocaust denial for questioning the persecution of trans people under the Nazi regime, a fact which has been well documented

I’m not denying she’s a cunt but I think it’s important to be precise with these sorts of allegations.

I don’t see anything about holocaust denial in your link. There’s a 2018 article discussing parallels between her work and the real holocaust but it doesn’t claim she’s a denier. I don’t really care for Rowling but I also don’t like misinformation. If there is some evidence can you please share it?

It’s definitely not infallible but neither is anticheat software. How do you tell if someone is using a DMA cheat? Even kernel level anticheat can’t detect that.

Is any anticheat as effective as a community server with active moderators to ban cheaters?

Because they actively encouraged users to prepurchase the game, play the beta, and refund if they didn’t like it. Many prepurchased based on previous comments about supporting proton and are now considering refunding based on recent comments.

In the beta last week the game was perfectly playable via proton which is why people are frustrated.

Pretty annoying if true. I preordered with the idea that I could refund if the beta didn’t work. It worked great so I was happy to wait for release but now it looks like I’ll have to refund after all.

Worked fine with linux in the last beta. Why disable it now?
