  • I've got a virtualized set up to.

    Its pretty unbothered being virtualized so long as the disks are passed through. In my set up, I have the SAS board passed through and its using that.

    My reasoning is that I wanted a lot of disks space, but I couldn't get that without just a big case in general, so I use the extra space to store GPUs for AI and encoding stuff

  • I have a near complete control of a market segment.

    I want to monetize that control further.

    I release slot machine mini games into my most popular games.

    I have contributed to the gambling epidemic that plagues modern society.

    I am not a trust worthy entity.

    I am Steam

    Does that make sense?

    Its a bad thing they did to abuse their monopoly stance

  • Maybe the difference is effort versus objective reality.

    You and OP are concerned with whether or not they became a monopoly maliciously when I think the previous commenter is concerned with whether or not they simply are a monopoly.

    In my view they are a monopoly and they have abused that. I'm thinking of their loot boxes and silent support of skin gambling.

    We should be mistrustful of institutions with this much power, regardless of if they're actively abusing it.

  • The joke is that one would assume its a sappy sentiment that I'm thinking about home and my spouse while I relax with a beer.

    And the punch line is alcoholism

  • Tax stamps (recently repealed)

    For the longest time, if you wanted certain types of weapons, you had to pay a $200 tax to own that weapon. These include surpressors, full auto guns, short barrel rifles, and short barrel shotguns

    The point wasn't to ban these things it was to make them prohibitively expensive because "its the poor's who vomit violence". And this tax was implemented in the 1940's where $200 was off 2 or 4 times the cost of the gun itself.

    A different example is gun registries and concealed carry license databases. I don't trust the police to act calm when interacting with me when they know I have a gun. There are special classes that CCL holders take often so that they know how to read a cop and keep them calm during a traffic stop or a welfare check because cops are trained to shoot first and are very scared of the masses.

    Think of Paretti here. Shot dead for having a gun. People blamed it on the ICE agent being a violent fascist thug trained like that. I don't see it that way. I think he operated like a cop who was told no consequences.

    We have videos of cops approaching black men, committing the crime of being in white people spaces, who ask them if they have a gun, the man says yes, the cop tells them at gun point to pull it out and drop it, and then shoost the man when he touches the gun.

    I don't trust police to use surveillance state information like who owns what guns in a way that won't get me killed. Its why I'm still hesitant to get any tax stamp items. I'd love an SBR, but then I am legally required to let the ATF "inspect" my home if they ask me to. I have to tell the ATF when and where I'm moving to if I change states.

  • I dislike when people are violent toward me.

  • My friend. You as an individual cannot be targeted with genocide. Genocide is the erasure of a whole cultural identity.

    That's another linguistic oddity you're using that I think is upsetting people to be hostile against you.

    It sounds like you're being harassed and that's terrible that you're experiencing that kind of violence.

    Is this danger around speaking, is it something that's happening to you in real life or just online? It sounds like something bad is happening to you in real life, but I think these issues your having for which you're asking for permission to speak is caused by your linguistic oddities.

  • May I have permission to speak?

    Jump

  • Okay, but those are both normal identities here. Have you had bad experiences based on those identities here?

    Its an odd linguistic choice to identify as a "male homosexual" specifically and especially as a defiant statement against a seemingly specific type of bigotry.

    Further its odd to start from the assumption that people will be racist towards you as well. Especially here where we can't know that information unless given to us.

    You're clearly traumatized and reacting in response to that, but it starts the conversation off on a terrible foot when you assume the community you're posting to for the first time is going to be hostile to you for things we cannot know unless you share it. I think the hostility you've encountered here, including my swearing, was triggered by this because you offended us.
