psydroid | schestowitz, it is getting harder and harder to replace the firmware on phones. You could think of it as further tying Android devices to the software the devices came with, so mobile devices that come with a completely free software stack (such as the Pinephone) are becoming more important than ever | Nov 04 18:12 |

scientes | MinceR, you mean if you call something with a penis a "He" you can be prosecuted for being an idiot? | Nov 04 22:21 |
MinceR | something like that | Nov 04 22:21 |
XRevan86 | Oh wait, that was stackoverflowia. Though it's probably both. | Nov 04 22:22 |
MinceR | :> | Nov 04 22:22 |
scientes | MinceR, does it also apply to using the wrong genders on abiotic objects when speaking a gendered language? | Nov 04 22:22 |
MinceR | reddit and SO are not sovereign states yet :> | Nov 04 22:22 |
MinceR | scientes: probably not, but i don't know | Nov 04 22:22 |
*XRevan86 thinks that respect goes before principles. | Nov 04 22:23 | |
MinceR | that's a principle too :> | Nov 04 22:24 |
XRevan86 | But it's hard to respect someone who wants to be called "His Majesty" | Nov 04 22:24 |
MinceR | indeed | Nov 04 22:24 |
scientes | El principal o la principal? | Nov 04 22:24 |
MinceR | this applies to monarchs more | Nov 04 22:24 |
XRevan86 | I mean in a pronoun context. | Nov 04 22:24 |
scientes | XRevan86, that's a good one | Nov 04 22:24 |
scientes | or "King" | Nov 04 22:25 |
XRevan86 | In Futurama there's a neutral pronoun proposed, BTW %) | Nov 04 22:27 |
XRevan86 | shkle / shkim (or shkler) | Nov 04 22:27 |
XRevan86 | * shklim | Nov 04 22:27 |
scientes | You mean shekel? | Nov 04 22:28 |
MinceR | in The Culture, the Marain language is genderless | Nov 04 22:28 |
XRevan86 | pronounced "shklee" | Nov 04 22:28 |
scientes | XRevan86, but what is wrong about "it"? | Nov 04 22:28 |
scientes | cause English actually has genderless pronouns and people refuse to use them | Nov 04 22:28 |
scientes | it and the and that | Nov 04 22:28 |
scientes | you could also do that in German | Nov 04 22:29 |

XRevan86 | * masculine | Nov 04 22:30 |
MinceR | you can't tell accusative from nominative with "das" | Nov 04 22:30 |

MinceR | among other things, yes | Nov 04 22:30 |
scientes | MinceR, that's why i was wondering if it was a crime to misgender inanimate objects | Nov 04 22:30 |
MinceR | :> | Nov 04 22:30 |
XRevan86 | scientes: It seems like English speakers think "it" is soulless or derogatory | Nov 04 22:31 |
XRevan86 | so much so that obsessed people call *things* very really like "she" | Nov 04 22:31 |
XRevan86 | like ships or guns | Nov 04 22:31 |
scientes | well, that is because women are objects.... | Nov 04 22:31 |
scientes | that they very much like | Nov 04 22:32 |
scientes | ugggh, that compound is ugly | Nov 04 22:33 |
XRevan86 | scientes: It's more of a "obsess over a woman", except with a bunch of iron | Nov 04 22:33 |
scientes | so usually "they hold dearly" | Nov 04 22:33 |
XRevan86 | scientes: Yes, I think that makes sense | Nov 04 22:34 |
XRevan86 | women get reduced to objects, and glorified objects meet them in between | Nov 04 22:35 |
scientes | woman being objects (but not *only* objects) is also a fact | Nov 04 22:36 |
scientes | that is why they have breasts unlike all the other mammels | Nov 04 22:36 |
MinceR | we're all objects, it's an object oriented reality | Nov 04 22:36 |
XRevan86 | scientes: I prefer the term "human asset" | Nov 04 22:37 |

scientes | XRevan86, that video is 30 minutes | Nov 04 22:40 |
XRevan86 | scientes: Short by his standards | Nov 04 22:41 |
scientes | but yes, they are totally different from all other mammels, but this is rarely talked about because it is taboo | Nov 04 22:41 |
XRevan86 | his latest video is 2 hours long | Nov 04 22:41 |
XRevan86 | scientes: You can have 30 minutes of a person talking about this topic :) | Nov 04 22:41 |
scientes | this is why i avoid YouTube | Nov 04 22:41 |

scientes | those trying to make money always make them 10 minutes however | Nov 04 22:42 |

scientes | so they can't tell | Nov 04 22:48 |
XRevan86 | scientes: But okay, enough with the video, you didn't explain your point of view | Nov 04 22:49 |
scientes | basically poland already had an agreement, that still stands (it was even explicitely mentioned in the Schengen agreement), but it isn't really integrated with the other rules | Nov 04 22:49 |
scientes | XRevan86, i think breasts are what make women objects | Nov 04 22:49 |
XRevan86 | scientes: What about permanent breasts makes women objects? | Nov 04 22:49 |
scientes | the breasts themselves are objects of appeal, like any other desired object | Nov 04 22:50 |
MinceR | so what happens if one of them gets both of them removed to deal with breast cancer? | Nov 04 22:50 |
XRevan86 | scientes: Because men care how they look? | Nov 04 22:50 |
scientes | no | Nov 04 22:50 |

XRevan86 | scientes: But yes, this is in a vicinity of what Lindybeige is talking about | Nov 04 22:54 |
scientes | and you see it in the way both Napoleon and Putin talk | Nov 04 22:55 |
XRevan86 | now here the word asset genuinely works | Nov 04 22:55 |
scientes | Napoleon is reputed to have told a very rich women who asked him "what do you like most in a women", "the one that has the most children" | Nov 04 22:56 |

MinceR | scientes: but not women? | Nov 04 22:56 |
scientes | MinceR, it would have to steal them | Nov 04 22:57 |
MinceR | so? | Nov 04 22:57 |
MinceR | also, being able to steal them implies they're property | Nov 04 22:57 |
scientes | yes it does | Nov 04 22:57 |

XRevan86 | if it's only men, it's doomed, because if a women gets pregnant even by them, she's not going to contribute a new human to this community, but instead to that one where she lives | Nov 04 22:59 |
MinceR | would be nice if people weren't owned by other people | Nov 04 22:59 |
MinceR | then this whole issue wouldn't exist | Nov 04 22:59 |
scientes | MinceR, you are totally missing the point | Nov 04 23:00 |
scientes | the point is that this tension between owning and not owning people is what creates society in the first palce | Nov 04 23:00 |
XRevan86 | From an evolutionary standpoint it matters, because that used to be the case. | Nov 04 23:00 |
scientes | not really | Nov 04 23:01 |

XRevan86 | MinceR: It's not really about ownership per-se, hence why I corrected scientes' use of words. | Nov 04 23:01 |
MinceR | well, society is seriously fucked up | Nov 04 23:01 |
scientes | yeah, "human asset" is a little more descriptive | Nov 04 23:02 |
scientes | MinceR, you wouldn't know English without it | Nov 04 23:03 |
XRevan86 | MinceR: There are different ways to look at it. Either that it is unfair to women or that it is unfair to men. Life sucked for all really. | Nov 04 23:04 |
scientes | are there ferries from stockholm<->helsinki stockholm<->st petersberg, and what do they cost? | Nov 04 23:05 |
XRevan86 | Either you're more restrained because you're a treasure, or you're cannon fodder, because you're expendable. | Nov 04 23:05 |
scientes | i assume the helsinki<->st petersberg buses are cheat | Nov 04 23:05 |
scientes | XRevan86, yeah that sums it up | Nov 04 23:05 |
MinceR | i'd rather exist as a member of a civilized nonhuman species than know English :> | Nov 04 23:06 |
MinceR | it's a cost i'm willing to pay | Nov 04 23:06 |
scientes | 10 million Russian men in WW2 | Nov 04 23:06 |
scientes | *Soviet men | Nov 04 23:06 |
XRevan86 | > problems of primitive communities | Nov 04 23:07 |
XRevan86 | > Soviet men | Nov 04 23:07 |
scientes | > or you're cannon fodder, because you're expendable. | Nov 04 23:07 |
XRevan86 | like Soviet women weren't %) | Nov 04 23:07 |
scientes | yes, both USSR and USA "feminism" does that to women | Nov 04 23:07 |

XRevan86 | scientes: You know of monogamy, right? | Nov 04 23:08 |
XRevan86 | enforced monogamy equalises sexes tremendously | Nov 04 23:09 |
scientes | what about in the Ottoman empire? | Nov 04 23:09 |
MinceR | equalized in oppression | Nov 04 23:09 |
MinceR | one could go further, though | Nov 04 23:09 |
MinceR | equalized in death | Nov 04 23:09 |
XRevan86 | now both components of a conception are important | Nov 04 23:10 |
MinceR | like the Axlotl tanks | Nov 04 23:10 |
scientes | hehehe, "all men die equal, and are buried with certain inalienable rights" | Nov 04 23:10 |
scientes | at least that one is true | Nov 04 23:10 |
MinceR | what rights are those? | Nov 04 23:10 |
MinceR | to not rise from the dead? | Nov 04 23:10 |
scientes | MinceR, the right to remain silent | Nov 04 23:10 |
XRevan86 | the right to be forgotten | Nov 04 23:11 |
XRevan86 | Have you noticed that somehow this is so much darker? | Nov 04 23:11 |
MinceR | :> | Nov 04 23:11 |
scientes | "There are two big ferry companies running services on the Stockholm–Helsinki route: Viking Line and Tallink Silja Line. Both make a stop at Åland (a Swedish-speaking part of Finland) along the way. It’s a nice enough place but the main reason for stopping there is that Åland – an autonomous region of Finland – is not subject to the same EU tax rules as Sweden and Finland. This clever loophole means boats can sell tax-f | Nov 04 23:13 |
scientes | ree goods (including booze) on both legs of the journey." | Nov 04 23:13 |
scientes | hehe | Nov 04 23:13 |
MinceR | :> | Nov 04 23:14 |
XRevan86 | MinceR: I don't want to go into details of how all that works out. | Nov 04 23:14 |
MinceR | it doesn't | Nov 04 23:15 |
XRevan86 | MinceR: But I should point out that harems lead by a woman don't break this %) | Nov 04 23:15 |
scientes | XRevan86, yeah, but what about polygamy in Muslim countries? | Nov 04 23:15 |
XRevan86 | scientes: I don't know much about it, but I strongly suspect that it works only for wealthy men. | Nov 04 23:16 |

XRevan86 | scientes: So with lower men you still get expendable material, even if on paper they get more rights than them women | Nov 04 23:19 |
scientes | yeah, I pretty much agree, I guess I was just trolling ;) | Nov 04 23:20 |
XRevan86 | I phrased it slightly wrong: they *do* have more rights, but that doesn't translate into success. | Nov 04 23:22 |
XRevan86 | Where success is biological, so genetic propagation of one or one's relatives. | Nov 04 23:23 |
XRevan86 | And not only is that approach more cruel, it doesn't have real benefits in societies large enough. | Nov 04 23:28 |
scientes | polygamy is cruel? | Nov 04 23:29 |
XRevan86 | It doesn't make sense to try to protect precious human resources from wasting it on underdogs | Nov 04 23:29 |
scientes | oh damn, cruise for 1 person is same price and cruise for 2 people | Nov 04 23:30 |
scientes | from stockholm to helsinki | Nov 04 23:30 |
XRevan86 | scientes: There's only one kind of people who are clear winners | Nov 04 23:30 |
XRevan86 | alpha males | Nov 04 23:30 |
scientes | and same price as 4 people! | Nov 04 23:31 |
scientes | damn you gotta find people to book with you to get a good price | Nov 04 23:31 |
XRevan86 | (yes, biologically alpha males in humans are a myth, still socially I think it's applicable) | Nov 04 23:31 |
XRevan86 | scientes: Someone is guaranteed to get screwed with no good reason. | Nov 04 23:33 |
scientes | but why are people guaranteed fairness? | Nov 04 23:33 |
scientes | that what leads to overly-generous government handouts | Nov 04 23:34 |
scientes | and the victim class | Nov 04 23:34 |
XRevan86 | scientes: You could have noticed the word "more" | Nov 04 23:34 |
XRevan86 | Perfection is unachievable | Nov 04 23:34 |
XRevan86 | but brushing it off like useless is not my cup of tea | Nov 04 23:35 |
scientes | Europe always had this political war between the monarchs and the church | Nov 04 23:35 |
scientes | Russia never had that | Nov 04 23:35 |
XRevan86 | Not for very long anyway | Nov 04 23:35 |
XRevan86 | The Church is a powerful political instrument | Nov 04 23:37 |
XRevan86 | Peter I dealt with it | Nov 04 23:38 |
XRevan86 | In other words, benefits of polygamy don't scale up | Nov 04 23:41 |
XRevan86 | But the injustice does | Nov 04 23:41 |
scientes | it definitely caused problems in Utah before it was abolished | Nov 04 23:41 |

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-Tales from the lööp - Album on Imgur | Nov 04 23:44 | |
XRevan86 | And modern alpha males don't even have to achieve anything, so it's kind of the opposite of benefits | Nov 04 23:45 |
scientes | > And modern alpha males don't even have to achieve anything | Nov 04 23:45 |
scientes | hahahahaha | Nov 04 23:45 |
scientes | the alpha couch potato | Nov 04 23:45 |
MinceR | pack animals | Nov 04 23:46 |
XRevan86 | scientes: I had an image of Trump in mind :) | Nov 04 23:47 |
XRevan86 | Except in all white and with a harem | Nov 04 23:48 |
MinceR | not orange? | Nov 04 23:48 |
XRevan86 | and a lot of cats there for the grabbing | Nov 04 23:48 |
MinceR | sounds like animal abuse | Nov 04 23:58 |
