I was thinking along the line of them yoinking the guac right from under your nose, even if you weren’t finished yet.

Always has been - most people (me likely included) will just who whatever is cheaper.

“You can see the computer age everywhere but in the productivity statistics,”

If you only measure the workers, sure. What if you measure the processes that have been automated by programmers?

I’ve automated a semi-manual (first run this script, then that one, and then…) process. Would that process show up on their measurements? I bet it won’t.

Get that woman Firefox, so you can install ToXCancel for her, so you can stop giving yourself an aneurysm.

Thanks for the recommendation; I’ve opened the audiobook in my YT window, so I’ll eventually give it a listen (~4-5 hours is quite a chunk of time, and I don’t want to run it as background noise - give it an actually fair shake, you know).

Sure, but is it overall a positive-outcome kind of ideology? Or are there parts that undermine the whole, swinging the counter into the negatives?

Ah shit, you must be from the based timeline. I got the one with 9/11 and COVID instead :/

trying to use it in real life

Lmao, who?

There also were fascist „feminists“ right back to Suffrage.

Suffragettes, aka “proto-Feminists”. Acting like Feminism has ever been “a force for good” is just ignorant.

meant to insult feminists who stood up and strongly defended feminism

Huh, here I thought it was used for those the Feminists that had those “male tears” mugs, and were generally acting misandristic.

Now that actual Nazis are back in power

“Socialism” is a dirty word to them. Why would they want the national variant of it?

I mean, the Suffragettes (proto-feminists) already firebombed some places, like a bunch of terrorists, so it’s not like Feminism already had a good name.

In case you think only feminists fought for suffrage: There already was a larger, unnamed, suffrage movement that fought, without violence, for universal suffrage.

Important Notice: Feminism does not have a monopoly on universal suffrage.

Is Liberalism good?

Out of all the things I’ve done in vim, I’ve never opened a tab. I didn’t even know that was a thing, and I’ve been using it off and on since… 2009? (increasingly so over the years).

1. Get all the Pro-Iranian-Government people right on top of important infra
2. USA blows them all up
3. ???
4. PROFIT!?

College degrees just ensure we’re specialized.

Or becoming better just ensures you get more work done, and thus more work shoved onto your plate.

I know a guy who was smart enough to go to University, but went to a basic college instead (or rather, a Dutch equivalent). “I don’t want to do all that” is his defence in not going to Uni.

I think that’s just a “happy little accident”.

on the internet or in documentation

On the internet, nobody knows you’re a dog.

Biologically female

That’s just redundant. “female” generally already refers to biology. Only silly people use “female” to refer to gender identity.

if someone asks to be called she/her/susan then just do it.

In my life I’ve only met one person who noted her pronouns, and none (including her) who ever asked for specific pronouns use. That’s shit is such a weird Americanism. You’re weird if you do that.
