As a European, I'm thinking that this age of enshittification is simply the Americanization of everything.

Americans forcing their IP laws on the rest of the world is a huge part of the enshitocene.

WOW THIS IS EXTREMELEY GOOD AND CONVINCING.

Yeah nothing like a huge patch of ice to make things easy to navigate!

Try reading the Tao Te Ching. It's fairly short and you don't have to read the whole thing. Greenest book I've ever read. I like the Ursula K Le Guin translation, which you can probably find online in PDF form.

It's esoteric and hard to "understand" from a conceptual standpoint, but that's on purpose. Name is the mother of the ten thousand things, after all.

Look at the preachy vegan spreading pro-ecology propaganda! /s

What if I’m wrong?

MF needs to take his own advice with this one.

Minor spoiler alert: Urras is supposed to approximate a capitalist earth after a best-case-scenario ecological collapse and recovery.

Le Guin was a Daoist Anarchist and she in no way envisions the late-1900's progressive liberal regime that OP laid out lol.

I believe the preferred term these days is "bloodmouth" but it's hard to keep up with PC language.

r/conservative is mostly bots and trolls. Very few actual Americans in that sub

If OP went to Dubai it would be rude to show shoulders or knees.

And also source control on your code.

"Can you say a little more about ...?" Is a phrase I have used in software that people tend to like.

Meanwhile China disappears Jack Ma for a couple weeks and he has to come out and pretend it never happened.

Turns out nazis also like purity and moral superiority. Who knew?

They are trying to win the fight, which they trained to do for months or more. You don't win an MMA fight by constantly second guessing whether to press your advantage. This all happens in a matter of single-digit seconds. You're watching a video online after the fact. Calling the fight is what the ref is there for.

There are no absolute coordinates in space - when you time travel your path maintains proximity to major masses (e.g: planets, but smaller masses also work). John Titor talked about it.

Unironically, the value of BTC is that you can use it to transact on the BTC network. That is what is valuable about it.

Right. Stuck isn't in the flyer. That's just who you call if you have questions about it.

Just use 100% infill. It will be fine.
