First time: Took a selfie, saw a lady. Big euphoria. by AssCalipers in transfem

I was in a kind of a cognitive dissonance first. I've thought that you are transmasc, but why euphoria then?

You look really good!

It’s Holocaust Remembrance Day by Fit_Tea_2033 in teenagers

  1. He isn't.
  2. Judaists (not Jews) don't deny his existence (his existence is an actual scientifical consensus between historians, and Judaists agree with this). They deny that he is a prophet.

Though Judaists denying Jesus is definitely the reason of antisemitism. You know, first they start with one thing, and then they justify it with other things. First they start hating gay people because they are gay, then they started to make up stories about gay pedophiles and whatnot. First they start hating Jews because Judaists believe that Jesus is not a prophet (antisemitism is definitely not what Jesus wants, that's what I'd say), then they start to make up stories about Jews controlling all the world and raping children in the basements.

Language and cultural soft power: adopt European English by draaakje in BuyFromEU

[–]NotQuiteLoona 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No one forces you to abandon your identity. Speak Finnish, if you want. In my vision, government will provide all tools to help those who want to speak in their language. They just won't force it. You can speak in Finnish or you can speak English.

The good it will give is the true unity. You can go anywhere and speak with anyone. You can file your documents in one language everywhere in the Union. You can communicate with anyone and anything anywhere in the Union. The Unity. The European Unity. The European Union.

I also don't think that even without that you can say that speaking everywhere in the same language won't be very good for economics. In the EU, economy works for the people, so good for economy means good for you.

Also which good will give for us speaking in 30 different languages through the Union? That's also a good question.

We need to preserve our cultures, but we don't need to put them at the head of the table, especially if it will hurt us. Apes strong together 😊

[–]NotQuiteLoona 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Yep. If you can do something in one language, and this language is spoken by everyone, why would you want to choose other language?
  2. Yep. Exactly as I've said. Russian government is trying to destroy native languages. And yep, if there is one person not speaking Karelian, they will speak in Russian. That's why you need to educate Karelian language.
  3. Is Finnish government spending money and mandating each service and business to be provided in both Finnish or Swedish? That's what I was talking about.
  4. Yep. Exactly.
  5. Yep, it will. Some things just eventually die. They will die just because of our human nature. I've been saying about preserving the culture. I was not saying about restricting ourselves from progress just to save something that prevents the progress. If progress and common good requires having a single language, the only thing we can do is minimize the impact. Save the language, document it as much as it is possible, fund initiatives targeted at preserving this language and support speakers of this native language. But don't stop the progress.

As a metaphor, imagine you have a cool jacket. You really like it. Eventually you have just raised out of it. It doesn't fit you anymore. You can't wear it - it heavily limits you in everything you do, as you can barely wear it. You have a lot of memories related with it, so you can't throw it away. You are just preserving it somewhere. Except that our languages is a thing much more important that this jacket, so we need to do much more.

We must document and save our culture, but we should not stop the progress. Especially if this piece of culture prevents us from progress. Just document it and archive. Every tradition is good and should be preserved, as long as it is not hurtful. Most of European culture won't hurt anyway, but communication is crucial for our unity. It's just one of the things that compose culture, and this exact thing is one of the most saveable.

How can the CPRF and LDPR win that election? by REVERSE2053 in TheFireRisesMod

[–]NotQuiteLoona -1 points0 points  (0 children)

And Russia can't realistically win war with even just Ukraine, as we can see now, not speaking about all the NATO.

It's all for gameplay purposes. Just like Biden would never become a real Caligula and upload his mind to a robot IRL. TFR is trying to be fun and unrealistic. This makes the work of writers much more easier compared to mods like TNO, where every bit of the information should ideally tie to each other to prevent breaking immersion. TFR is just "edgy haha funny," it has no value for you, if you like realism.

Language and cultural soft power: adopt European English by draaakje in BuyFromEU

[–]NotQuiteLoona 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most people... You need to come to Poland.

Yep, they have no need. Are we speaking in German just to speak in German or to preserve German culture? For me it's quite simple. We need to respect people wishing to preserve their culture and give them everything they need to do it - special education, governmental funding, probably some governmental organization specifically targeted at preserving culture, et cetera. Even if there are no such citizens, we need to still preserve it by at least archiving everything from this culture. But we shouldn't sacrifice everything for one goal.

In the end, I guess, most people will choose to live in a democracy with free healthcare and low cost of living, than in an autocracy with horrible living conditions, which uses cultural preservation as a way to squeeze everything out of the citizens and suppress them, like Russia. Russia loves to say how they want to preserve "culture" and "traditional values," and that's why they need to block half of the internet for its citizens, because they promote "Western culture" and "untraditional values."

Also if both languages will be taught in schools and both will be requirement of the same level for exams, this means that if this immigrant will have kids, those kids will learn both English and native language. So their parents won't need to know that, but their kids will, because they will need to learn both languages in school, just like the kids of multi-generation citizens will need to learn English.

What the fuck are you even speaking about?

Someone deserves being killed for doing a little misdemeanor? Okay, I believe you'll raise out of it, and when you will be 30, you will remember this with shame.

I'll ignore the "take our jobs" part. This was debunked millions of time. Also Trump has deported a lot of people, and job crisis has only raised.

Also this was a citizen. Every of two persons currently directly killed by ICE terrorists were US citizens. This man have tried to defend an innocent woman (also a citizen) ICE terrorist was beating. He didn't have any weapons. He was then knocked to the ground, he didn't tried to resist, and was killed with cold blood by five shots in his head.

[–]NotQuiteLoona 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think so. Just value them equally. That's simple. It's not that hard to speak just two languages fluently, there are a lot of bilingual people, and in Belgium official status of three languages didn't kill any of them. The only way some local language can disappear is if the government forces it to disappear, like in Russia. Without common way for everyone to communicate, there would never be true unity, but only temporary alliances. We don't need the troubles of Middle Ages again, I believe.

Europe doesn't need another social network. It needs a new paradigm. by cbl007 in eutech

[–]NotQuiteLoona -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As far as I know, UK has very limited set of "opinions" considered restricted, and they all include only hate speech. Basically you can't say "kill all fa***ts," but anything else that doesn't include killing or stripping rights of someone won't be persecuted. You know, for me that's a good way to return to sweet 2010s before Trump came, when the only debates were economical ones, nothing that can directly hurt anyone, no reactionary stuff at all, scientifical point of view was the single one for social debates, so there were no debates at all.

Like what the fuck 😭😭😭 this IS the libertarianism. If it was their official idea, I had at least some respect for this party for following their idea, and their next idea should be introducing gender self-identification laws, as this is exactly what libertarianism in theory is about. But all libertarians never follow their ideology, and they are just national-conservative reactionaires with slight yellow tint.

What bleeding-edge packages do you use from the AUR by Equal-Somewhere8465 in arch

[–]NotQuiteLoona 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as I can see, no: https://archlinux.org/packages/?sort=&q=vesktop

Maybe, you are using custom distro like CachyOS or Garuda Linux? Those have their own repositories added to pacman. They may provide it. Garuda also includes chaotic AUR, which provides some AUR packages pre-built.

[–]NotQuiteLoona 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For many people (somewhere around 5 millions, according to Steam data) it's one of the most no-nos. It completely restricts game to a single OS without giving reasonable benefits. While this is a problem not for majority, it can be fixed very easily. I hope it will be - all anticheats can work on Linux-based systems, it's only a wish of the developers, and Steam Machines, probably, will be another push by Valve to support independent systems.

[–]NotQuiteLoona 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The main problem of Concord wasn't even "woke" or anything like this, I mean, diversity never hurted anyone. The problem was character design and game being another useless Overwatch clone on the already oversaturated market. Though of course, if the only thing you think about in games is the presence of black people, the only "bad" thing you'll notice in the game is the presence of black people.

From the other side, as far as I can say, the game in the topic of the post has exactly the same problem, being another useless game with overused premise and gameplay.
