You’re just skipping over the obvious choice of chopsticks, I see.

I think you forgot how many absolutely trash games were being made.

Wow, I’m surprised you were able to make meat eating even more evil than it already was.

I think you might have a career as an accomplished entymologist ahead of you with so much success finding bugs!

I think modern labour might be too diverse to cover properly with only a few symbols. We’re no longer uniting two labour forces, material conditions have changed. I think that instead of focusing on types of labour, we might instead focus on what the movement can bring.

We could put basic human rights on a theoretical new flag. A drop represents access to water, bread represents access to food, and a roof over both.

If you want a new flag, picking something that unites is all (our needs) might be a good way to go.

I disagree. I don’t think the symbol is tainted, but the core idea behind it, because of the red scare propaganda. Once people realise what the new symbol stands for, they’ll dislike it just as much, if not more so because they feel ‘tricked’.

We have to reform the good name of communism instead, rather than throw it out wholesale.

For tech workers, how about a keyboard, mouse, or a circuit board? Getting them to look good and clear on a flag would be difficult though…

I don’t think the scythe really represents farming in the modern era though.

Ah, I misunderstood. I conflated “Americans” (lawmakers) and “Americans” (everyone else).

The laws specified by the EU allow for future technological developments and the advancement of the standard without having to re-write the laws. The law itself includes a mandatory technical review, and allows for new standards to be integrated, and outdated standards to be dropped.

The EU commision did not decide on USB-C in a vacuum. It looked on already existing stanards and talked to many large electronics manufacturers in order to come to a proposal for USB-C as a universal standard. You are right to point out the role that both Intel and Apple played (Along HP, Microsoft and the USB-IF) in the development of the standard, but you’re missing the forest for the trees, since it was the EU making it a *universal * standard within it’s boarders that means we all use the same standard.

The reason we should thank the EU is because of this rule. While I cannot guarantee this rule is responsible, the fact that it’s mandated means it’s significantly more economically viable to use the same connector across all regions (including America), and so this rule is the primary factor in the standardization of charging cables.

It depends on what level of competency you’re expecting. If we count “able to use professionally” I’d say learning a human language take longer/is harder?

I think this is not helpful, since both are “mixing colour”. I think a more apt analogy would be “shining multiple lights” vs “stacking colour filters”.

To be clear, the accusation is that the mod team is Zionist, and that they consistently moderate all anti-Zionist content.

It’s a Zionist bar not just because there’s a few Zionists, but because the bar owner keeps kicking out the people who cause a ruckus with the Zionists.

1. They had a vote, and the people said strongly that they did not want to see this.
2. Platforming Facism is the best way to spread Facism, and deplatforming Facism is the best way to fight it. Supporting their freedom to speak is in effect the same as supporting the ideology.

Have your tried? Asking someone when there’s nothing visually wrong with you is a pretty good way to cause conflict.

It depends what you mean by ‘security’. Obviously, by introducing more layers, you have more places where exploits can life. However, the biggest threat by orders of magnitude is being tricked into giving stuff up, and that risk will remain constant.

Ah ok. That’s not how I understood your comment initially, but that’s reasonable.

Even if we can’t, should we not try? It’s only, as you say, a few thousand. We can spare the resources to keep them locked up/under house arrest/whatever for the rest of their natural lives if we must.

If we must execute people to heal the wounds inflicted by their sheer callousness, then so be it. But I don’t really accept the argument that anyone is “irredeemable” without even trying.
