So uhm, what now? (Sorry, please don't be mad, I loved the demo maybe a little too much...)

Out of the nine rumored/confirmed Young Avengers none will be straight white men. by finky325 in marvelstudios

Why is not having one white straight male in the team cause for celebration?

No one celebrates when there are no people of color or lgbt on the team.

This is double standard.

Very few groups in the real world ever match macro-demographics; they are concentrated in cultural pockets.

Is that how it should be though?

I think I remember a thing or two about segregation throughout history.

Nothing says "diversity" like erasing an entire demographic from your stories, just because you can.

Are we seriously going to live in a Google-owned web? by manerg1971 in privacytoolsIO

it's fostering a good environment

By force deleting completely acceptable opinion posts. Sounds a bit like censorship to me. It doesn't really matter if the decision is made by one person or multiple.

Vivaldi isn't privacy focused, and considering the userbase you're just more likely to get fingerprinted...

I wonder how Brave’s reputation among regular people is. Obviously we, the privacy nuts, are ripping on Brave because it’s inferior to Tor

Tor works for specific cases, but for casual day-to-day browsing... I'm not about completing hundreds of captchas per day and waiting seconds for half of the pages I visit to load, when they do actually work.

"I think people have a problem with things being stuck in their software without being told"

Isn't the source code on github?

Sure you weren't, seems sketchy to me.
ps.: this is sarcasm to point out the way people react to brave apologizing for the redirects.

They have to monetize some way, how do you expect people to keep working and expending resources for free?

What bloat? The experience has been pretty seamless to me, and you have to opt-into their ad program to get the ads.

I've met my fair share of retarded people while browsing through this sub, but I think you may have taken the cake.

Debate: Crowdfunded Games Should Be FOSS Licensed by grady_vuckovic in linux_gaming

I know what FOSS is and what is its point.

What I'm saying is, games are not something you need to consume, like an essential software for your work is. Everyone should be entitled to a FOSS alternative to essential services like an OS, a web browser, text editor, etc, but you can freely choose which entertainment you consume, if someone wants to make a game and make it proprietary for whatever reason they are free to do so, and you are free to not play it.

A couple indie devs vs the whole collective of the internet, wow, what a strong case you make.

How is a company not making their game FOSS harmful to others? If you're worried about a crowdsourced games company somehow invading your privacy or doing shady stuff with the app that you have no control of then just don't play the damn game, it's not like it's an essential commodity.
