OP is referencing the Dark Tower series for those who didn’t know.

I’m just responding to your comment. If you were only talking about encryption, then maybe word your comment more clearly… Especially if you want to cast aspersions towards other about staying on topic.

Only if you look at it in the most general, limited, pov. Are they the same people on corporate greed? Not all, but mostly yes. Are they the same people on encryption? Yes. Are they the same on human rights? Absolutely fucking not. If the only thing important for you is encryption, voting isn’t going to change the government’s policy decisions. However, if things other than encryption and corporate greed are important, then voting for a Republican is voting against your interests. History is filled with people who can’t see past their own fucking biases and look out for the greater interest… So you have a lot of historical company.

Ok. You don’t understand what sustainable means. Got it.

Huh? Your response doesn’t make sense. Were you intentionally ignoring the point of the op: coffee is more sustainable than non-renewable resources?

That’s like saying sunshine is free and then somebody trying to argue against that point but criticizing the price of sunscreen …

It’s not as convenient, but a moka pot makes the best single serving coffee I’ve experienced. You can get a small version for less than $30. It takes me less than 5 minutes to make a barista level cup, and even the more expensive coffee is going to cost less than 50 cents per serving.

The only downside is the coffee is highly caffeinated–nearly espresso levels. So you’re forced to add water if you just want a “cup” of coffee and it’s more of an Americano-style. But the taste beats the shit out of drip or Keurig cups…imo.

I was raised in the city…shitty…ever since i was an iddy biddy kiddy drinking liquor out my mama’s tiddy.

It can’t be a crime unless there is a criminal statute that applies. See if you can find one thst applies.

It’s not a crime.

You just keep shifting your argument to create some sort of sympathy. I guess. No one says a rich person isn’t a victim. The point is is being a victim as a wealthy and influential woman like Taylor is a lot different than being a victim in a working class context. If you disagree with that, then you’re either being intellectually dishonest or living in a dream world.

Even the law agrees. It’s a lot harder as a celebrity to win a defamation lawsuit than it is being a normal person. You typically have to show actual malice. Frankly, that’s the legal standard that would probably apply to any lawsuit involving the deep fakes anyway.

That’s not their point and you know it. Get your bad faith debating tactics out of here.

She isn’t living “every woman’s nightmare” because a woman without the wealth and influence Taylor has might actually suffer significant consequences. For Taylor, it’s just a weird Tuesday. For an average small town lady, it might mean loss of a job, loss of mate, estrangement from family and friends… That’s a nightmare.

The universe will still exist… But the end of the human animal is most certainly nigh.

I’ve never wished a man dead, but I have read some obituaries with great pleasure.
