Now that the AI's quality is rapidly degrading, I'm significantly less worried about glorified auto-correct taking over the planet.

An open world, create your own character Star Wars game, hands down. That shit would be fucking amazing.

I agree with your point of view, and I think the solution is more governmental regulation. Billionaires and companies keep leeching for infinite growth, and I believe our system can work (and has proven it can work), if we allow a free market within reason.

What do you mean by 'USB TAN generator'? I don't think I'm familiar.

The UK is really trying to ban math LMAO. The human race is fucking doomed if this nothing-burger legislation keeps getting focused on by politicians.

The problem with reddit is, in my opinion, inherent to the way it's designed. I think that similar to a monarchy, the previous system needs to be forgotten and improved upon. (Not to say that the aftermath of the French Revolution was a great improvement) Whether its spez or anyone else, you cannot make Reddit a healthy platform and go public.

That makes sense. I guess I don't really see the point of the law. If a message of hate goes too far, it would already fall other applicable laws against harassment or discrimination. Why does there need to be legislation specifically protecting against hate crimes?

My mistake, I thought he was proposing a change / new law. I personally just disagree with that law then, I don't think that creeds should be protected from hateful messages. Unless the messages amount to harassment or breaking another existing, more general law, I don't necessarily see the issue it's solving.

Yes, but the law you proposed would allow that to happen. That isn't a straw man, it's your proposed idea not being very good.

A school is not a public place, and so that isn't an equivalent example. If the sidewalk in front of the Masjid is a public area, you should legally be able to throw a bacon-and-Koran barbecue during Eid. There is no world where you can punish people for doing that and not end up on a slippery slope that jeopardizes freedom of expression.

I understand what you're saying, but to actually act on that and try to put it into law would be foolish.

Someone being disrespectful isn't even close the being the government's business. You can be as disrespectful as you want, burn a Koran every day if you please, and the government should not (or be able to) do anything about it.

True, but I don't think the message comes across the same without it.
