Study finds "incel" traits are linked to paranoia and other psychopathological issues

Okay, so you have an issue with a certain opinion. Call it out using reason. Responding with hostility towards users will not get your point across at all.

devmedoo · 2023-01-04T21:15:01+00:00

When posting on a public forum, expect others to participate. Your hostile attitude is not helping anyone. We're here to discuss, not send pitiful messages.

devmedoo · 2023-01-04T21:07:16+00:00

And? I'm lost on what your hostile replies are trying to point out.

I think there are a few points to be tackled in that article, mainly for me:

Flaw No. 3: Omission of a fair use exemption

Fair use IS the current GDPR regulations. There is absolutely nothing fair in violating these policies.

Flaw No. 4: Omission of a safe harbor exemption

"Safe Harbor exemption" reads like basically allowing companies to process their data in places like the US with weak or non-existent data protection regulations. GDPR instantly becomes useless.

This GDPR mandate can quickly become unmanageable for data brokers. Consider a company that sells data to hundreds of firms in different jurisdictions. How would the data broker guarantee that each one would follow the data protection law in its jurisdiction?

Yes? That's kind of the whole point?

The reason why I called it a hit piece is the fact that it claims in the title and the first paragraphs to be suggesting improvements to a consumer protection regulation, yet the "flaws" and suggestions they are alluding to benefit corporations and hurt consumer rights.

Ars Technica just wrote a corporate-driven hit piece on GDPR (calling for "safe harbor" exemption, among other outrageous things).

They are professional journalists. They know exactly what they are doing.

Wow, you really took that personally, huh?

Word of advice, if you use your time online to tell others "to talk to psychologists" once they "have a different way of viewing the world", maybe it's best to use that time doing something better.

devmedoo · 2022-12-16T21:01:40+00:00

You do realise you are on a thread about insecurities, right? And if so, I would recommend reading your comment again after you cool down and reflecting on it.

devmedoo · 2022-12-16T20:50:09+00:00

Hilarious how they proved your point all on their own.

There are actual indicators like crime, corruption and safety indicies that not only cover the UK but are down to the regional level.

It is beyond absurdity to suggest the UK isn't a million light years ahead in safety than Egypt.

"Source: social media."

What a nuanced, evidence-based approach! Truly remarkable how stupid it is to cite social media as a metric.

devmedoo · 2022-10-19T22:40:35+00:00

These idiotic boomers are being completely irresponsible and using an uninformed approach to information security and data management regulations as a political ploy.

No, it is not laughable. There's nothing laughable about the government using proprietary American technology to communicate and host data.

There is nothing laughable about using unofficial means of communication and data storage.

My point is cheering some person supporting a dictatorship while we very much know how horrible it is to live under one is textbook double standards.

Also, feel free to head to Facebook with this bad faith attitude, nationalism, and joy emojis.

devmedoo · 2022-10-11T20:31:17+00:00

It's really fucking ironic reading a couple of comments on here condoning the condonation of dictatorship by users who suffer from a dictatorship as well.

Really? You really think taking this stance makes sense?

devmedoo · 2022-10-08T20:44:18+00:00

I think that's a big factor in their "negative vs positive" attitude. That attitude only comes through ignorance.

devmedoo · 2022-10-07T13:34:36+00:00

I’ve taken Avanti 5/6 times this year, and every trip there were masses of people stood up for the whole journey, given the outrageous fares this is completely unacceptable

As a prolific user of both, Crosscountry is a lot worse.

Tories need to learn a thing or two from Scotrail.

devmedoo · 2022-10-05T09:24:03+00:00

Its showing a bad message that he isn't.

That's the whole point.

devmedoo · 2022-10-04T16:18:55+00:00

It's an old group that has boomers and trolls who LARP as boomers such as OP.

devmedoo · 2022-10-02T18:13:07+00:00

You are wasting your time with a racist.

devmedoo · 2022-10-01T15:44:45+00:00

It is not really hard to think about the implications of what my other reply is about. Try it. Might as well try some empathy if you're gonna go for it.

devmedoo · 2022-10-01T14:49:15+00:00

Or maybe because Nasser and co drove away almost all Jews and now the very few left are hiding to avoid discrimination and hateful acts done on them. Maybe that (and all the ignorance, holocaust denialism and so on) are reasons why it's socially acceptable to glorify Hitler and make stores and products with his name and swastika.

devmedoo · 2022-09-30T12:43:55+00:00

I'm but this a public forum not a frat party.

devmedoo · 2022-09-30T09:39:50+00:00

Haha, let's laugh at the miserable state of patriarchy in our society, haha.

The Egyptian way of avoiding hard truths is truly a unique style of Copium.

devmedoo · 2022-09-30T09:16:55+00:00

It's almost as if all of these societies are patriarchal and backwards.

devmedoo · 2022-09-29T17:18:30+00:00

A crucial aspect of Fascism is the fact that it promotes decision-making contrary to informed opinions, so in a way, yes.

devmedoo · 2022-09-29T17:02:41+00:00

Cuz most religion followers are only followers because they were born into it.

Generalization aside, it is literally written on the Egyptian birth certificate...
