Most people in WoW and Souls games use it to mean someone who purposely remains lower level but gets better gear.

Ie. Staying under a soul level to PvP with a certain level of player using late game gear. (PvP in Souls games is based on soul level brackets)

Both. The WoW term (which is actually from Ultima Online originally) comes from the queer term.

The term you are looking for is “twink”

I’ll take “winwing not charging $300 for what’s realistically half the quality of VKB” over trying to land a real plane… and I own a PA28.

Y’know the French did this “publicly execute the rich” thing before. Worked out pretty great for them… maybe we should learn a thing or two.

The ends justify the means?

Hypotheticaly then: if I had a 100% guarantee that murdering all babies would get them into heaven, but you’d go to hell, is it morally right to murder all babies? The ends justify the means, do they not? We need to get babies to heaven! So murder them all!

No, it’s absolutely still monstrous. Because utilitarianism is stupid.

Y’know most of us audiophiles are managing actual libraries… but they’re not mp3. Mines mostly flac.

War crimes are explicitly not terrorism by definition. If you need a basic high school education though there’s hopefully a public school near you. This subject and topic is covered under civics.

Wars are by definition lawful. Sorry you’re wrong

It’s also not a twisted definition. It’s the literal dictionary definition that all countries use when defining terrorism.

And no, if war time acts were not lawful, all war is terrorism which it isn’t so again you’re wrong.

Israel can’t be called terrorism because terrorism must be—by definition—unlawful

the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.

Emphasis mine.

“Hey so I know we’ve been doing a genocide but look, we’re being really nice when we bomb innocent civilians homes by letting them know we’re going to bomb their homes.”

This (a) doesn’t excuse literal genocide and (b) is just a “nicer” version of exactly the thing they’re appalled Hamas just did. You don’t get to cry foul if you’re going to retaliate with a tit for tat play.

They are terrorists. That’s literally what they are. The fact that attacked an evil fascist state’s city doesn’t change that.

The only books I have physical copies of are for ttrpgs. And even then I have a digital copy.

Most Blu-ray’s now come with digital files. You can upload these to a server like Plex (this requires you to setup a Plex server which I don’t expect the average consumer to be capable of, but uploading it to a MacBook or whatever is basically enough) to digitise your collection. Now you still own the physical media, and have a digital version of it as well.

And this is completely legal.

You could also skip the buying the physical Blu-ray part. But that is less than legal (but you’re unlikely to get caught… just saying, yar har)

Lemmy is not full of tankies, yours truly a communist.

And your post was free market romanticism.

As the owner of a Victoria Arduino E1… it is not smart. They tried. My DE1XL was the better machine, for $2,000 less.

Also, pretty sure it’s illegal in California to under CCPA, but there they could just turn off the lights. Which is why CCPA needs change in functionality clauses.

Don’t forget that mods often don’t play nice with games off steam

Anti-capitalist ≠ tankie

In fact Communist ≠ tankie

Tankies are specifically defenders of Marxist-Leninist communism and their one party state rule (which is ironically not communism, it’s Stalinism which is a form of autocratic socialism)

No they permanently lost claim to “fighting the good fight” when they literally bundled their software with malware.
