How do you account for slaves that don’t do manual labor? How do you account for slaves in gilded cages? It’s not how we usually see it, but a scholar could be a slave.
And profits were maximized with better working conditions and / or the lie you were not being exploited and could reap the fruits of your labor.
You do realise the situation with Imane is the exact opposite. People decided she was a man and started to attack her. She’s evidence of gender as a social construct.
Isn’t the idea of owning humans just a fad in the history of civilization? Pure subjugation by force died down and we started experimenting with different forms of exploitation and some justification.
Is it, really? Am I expected to research became someone else wants to change my behavior and don’t have the time to share the research they supposedly have done? We believe in a lot of things based on trust in the system. When you challenge someone’s position, you should at the same time challenge yours.
Maybe that inspired the show Common Side Effects.
Is it right to assume that the USA just refuses to leave once they have established a base?
You might want to add they are in the US in the description.
It was in Limeira, Brazil. It’s rope jumping.
How long have you tried Linux / Ubuntu before you left it? Have you tried other distros? Your issue is real, but the solution might be something more radical than a small fix. Maybe it’s too late this time, but try some options next time you decide to explore Linux.
Love is love, but there are differences, and they should be celebrated.
I always thought of steam as neutral evil for being a corporation, but that was just plain wrong of me. Compare them to Digital Extreme and the fact they accidentally created a lucrative loot box and prompt remove from the game. They actually called the mechanic a slot machine instead of surprise mechanic.

That’s my general go to too.
As far as I know, gnocchi tells you when it’s done, so you are probably right and they just simplify the process so they don’t have to have someone scoping it out.
My current take about sports segregation is that it should emerge organically. As in, if a homogeneous group has so much advantage that no outsider can compete with them, the group should be then relegated to their own category or class. While there diversity, there’s no reason to discriminate against any kind of people.
I really don’t want to be a downer, but the title kind of make this a flawed message. The shark can miraculously hold a football, but the place of the crab is only as a goalie? I believe there’s always a way, but we are not naturally limited to a small set of positions.
It’s weird that they describe complex situations and then call it simple. I can also say I can create light with the press of a button and pretend it’s not just a trigger that depends on prepared terrain.
Please, people, don’t discuss the new polygraph as if it were more real than the old one. They are both tools, but, also, they are first both lies. It’s just a guess, but I believe there’s probably someone at every stage of the implementation saying it doesn’t quite work like that or that it doesn’t work at all. But who cares? The product they are selling is justifiable exploitation.
Can you explain what you mean by personal responsibility?
The way I see it, on one side, the law is the law. I can list every valuable thing in my house and put it on a sign in front of my house that also says I don’t lock the doors. Or put a sign saying I’ll skin them alive if anyone tries to steal from me. Neither sign will change the law and make me more or less culpable.
On the other side, we are discussing morality more than law here. In Brazil, having sex with someone at 15 is not illegal. Do you think it’s OK? Do you feel the need to defend the act? Just have your opinion and stand your ground, whatever it is.
I’m pretty sure someone asked that question when they tried to prevent robotaxis on the streets, but someone else got paid to skip the bureaucracy. Now they will collect extra money from the companies for not being road ready.
If they are treating tech flaws as a crime, all the violations come from the exact same driver. Take the license away.
It was just funny before, now it’s disgusting.
