Sure they will store everything till it's cost effective to crack the encryption, on everything some randoms send each other.

Intelligence will do that for high profile targets, possibly unsuccessfully.

You still own only a license to the game even in physical releases.

Physical media can and did have DRM and if Nintendo wished they could still remove your ability to play a game you have bought of you made use of any online mode or played a game released after their decision which would require and install a system update.

We need laws allowing users to do more stuff with games they buy (mod it, copy it etc). Physical media is at best irrelevant (when it's a common media without drm) or downright hostile to users.

How exactly is a floppy more advanced and the right move? Or fucking paper and photocopiers,/printers.

Are the parties compelled by law to allow any voter to vote? To even hold primaries?

Are those party elections held to the same legal standards as actual elections for government positions?

It sounds pretty Democratic™ to me.

Linux not being able to launch a game (that probably was not made for it) is not a relationship issue but a technical one.

Even if it is possible to run the game but you need to hack around your distro's configurations, you can be certain the default configuration was not made with the specific intent of preventing you from running the game.

In the Windows case you are not hacking around with the json file to solve a technical issue.

Windows is not misconfigured, it's Microsoft's explicit decision to prevent you from removing some of it's software even if it's forced by law to do so for other people.

It's ok if you don't mind Microsoft's behavior or you just find Linux's technical issues more important in choosing an OS. But the issues are not similar neither equivalent.

Normally sed just passes along the edited text to STDout (printing in the terminal usually).

With the -i option it actually changes the input files. If you add an extension immediately after the -i it apparently makes a backup of the original with that extension.

She's a cunt and I hope the rest of her life is long and miserable.

Careful now, she 'll send SWAT after you! 😂

There was war in Europe in the 90s as well.

What scares me is that, people are going to stop paying attention and dismissing actual antisemitism and hate crimes.

Israel is probably more concerned with moving it's ethnic cleansing of Gaza/West Bank forward than protecting Jewish people in the USA.

It is an infringement of free speech as a concept.

It is not an infringement of US law as the relevant protections are limited in scope to governmental actions.

Obviously US law and even more so the supreme court's interpretations of them are flawed, both on a moral level (big corps should also not be allowed to censor speech) and a logical level (censoring speech is free speech, corps are entitled to human rights).
