Reading online comments and reading a book might technically be the same action, but trust me it’s really not comparable. Books are also a great way to practice English. It’s basically how I got to my level despite never having studied for tests.

Pirating books on a Kindle is trivial as well.
Some things I do:
regular capturing of neonazis in society.
Right, fascist countries are well known for prosecuting and imprisoning neonazis after all. That makes total sense…
Russia is geopolitically communist, even if its economy is not.
This is getting comedic at this point. I’d suggest reading some Marx and learning about the basic definition of communism before making a fool of yourself online.
That makes both of us wrong then.
How?
Because you have an agenda.
While you’re clearly a very neutral, balanced person, going through a thread on India insulting people and posting images of nazi Germany.
It’s pretty telling that you think these pictures would be triggering to me. I’m not a nationalist, I have no problem saying that the nazi regime was horrifying. I have no issue saying that the current government unconditionally supporting Israel is a bad thing either. I’d never pretend the place I live in is the best place ever, or morally superior. Can you do the same?
The communist party of Russia is a minority party in opposition, it’s not governing at all. That’s United Russia, which holds over 70% of the seats of parliament. United Russia is not communist. You’re very confidently incorrect here.
anti-communist propaganda about Russia
Anti-Communist? Russia has been a capitalist country since 1989, they’re not even claiming to be communist.
Well, it’s not like you’re willing to cut ties with the West and align yourself with Russia either. Instead you’re trying to thread the middle ground by keeping your head down and keeping up trade with both. You’re not taking a stance, which is exactly why you’re not a political world leader.
PCs. Gaming laptops kinda suck IMO, especially their cooling. They also can’t really be upgraded and are much more expensive for the performance. For mobile PC gaming I much prefer a Steam Deck.
There have been many times in history when things have been far worse, so no, it’s not the worst. But many things are in decline right now. Democracy, digital privacy, trustworthiness of information, global peace, climate, the environment… humanity has to get back on track soon or the future looks pretty grim.
I haven’t bought a paper map once in my 30 years of life. My parents still used them in the 90s and early 2000s when we went on vacation.
I’ve read that according to polls, it might sway about 6% of Trump voters. If that actually happens then yes, it would matter a lot for the outcome of the election. That’s a big if though, so I guess we’ll see.
It’s not new, nor is it AI. Predictive text suggestions have been in Android for ages now.
No, it was anti-authoritarian, as it removed the authority slave holders had over their slaves.
I wouldn’t start with retro hardware, those systems have a lot of quirks and limitations that will make development much harder than it needs to be for your first projects. Instead I’d suggest using a modern toolkit like Gamemaker if you want to avoid programming, or an engine like Godot. Lots of good tutorials available for either.
Man, the state of the games industry is just sad to see. Also makes me question my career working in an adjacent field, despite my job being safe for now…
Yes, they do, although the top comment at this point talks about how it’s “literally a declaration of war” and the second to top claims that WW3 has started. You have to dig 3 comment chains down until anyone even questions the article. In any case, I don’t see how that’s relevant to my point about moderation.
I really enjoyed visiting Cimiteiro Monumentale in Milan. A historic cemetery with lots of lavishishly designed huge tombs. Very few tourists there and no scammers whatsoever.
