For the nintendo switch for example, it makes it hackable or not.

For other consoles where it matters less, it can be to get information about hardware inside and such, as consoles can sometimes change internal components without changing the name of the console, and the serial number would be a way to determine it I guess.

Edit: what the other comment said better, basically

Oui bah les capitalistes de merde rêvent de laisser tout ça à leurs copains du privé, ça a rien d’étonnant. Mais quand on élit Macon deux fois de suite faut pas avoir l’air surpris qu’un banquier corrompu ait pas les intérêts de la population dans ses priorités

This doesn’t make sense because it’s a stupid, common anti-vegan argument

“We need to keep on killing generations of cows, or else we’ll have to kill the current generation of cows”

Not only are the assumptions complete crap, the logic is even more moronic.

I mean, that’s what you would expect from anti-vegans.

This is this incredibly stupid, manipulative, fallacious piece of shit bullshit again?

Damn, the best way to spot stupid anti-vegans is to do nothing, they’ll tell you every 5 minutes.

Yeah that doesn’t feel at all like a loaded, hostile question.

Except for everyone who falls for it and is fine with the brainwashing.

Your question is loaded.

A lot of your posts have a weird background assumption that doesn’t sound good.

Now you might be completely honest and genuine, but you don’t come off as such.

And for your information, rape victims don’t “wait”, they suffer, struggle and feel shamed. They’re not just sitting around thinking “eeh, too lazy to go to the cops today, I’ll just do it in like 20 years”.

Also, when they do go to the cops, they get told “yeah I would have raped you too in this situation” and that’s it

I tagged this account as “suspicious” long ago and it keeps on confirming what I thought

Okay, I can’t believe I have to even explain that.

Misogyny is about discriminating against women. Racism is about discriminating based on “race”. Xenophobia is about discriminating based on nationality/origin.

All of those are forms of discrimination. They’re all bigotry. And they’re all related in modern times to fascism, yes. And if you don’t agree, then you’re obviously bullshitting because there is no way you would have missed how discrimination has evolved over the past decades, with people that would have used the same rhetoric as you back then, now doing nazi salutes, committing genocide and exterminating minorities.

If you don’t see the link - well, then you do, but you’re full of shit. Once again, sealioning.

This comes from the fact that there’s less and less space between actual nazis and “just far-right extremists”.

And I think people don’t really see a point anymore in trying to find a difference, me included.

So I have to spell out for you that showing people fighting sexism as people who do not know what they want and just complain about everything, or that showing a woman as a weird primitive monkey as soon as she doesn’t talk nicely and politely, is a problem?

You’re just proving my point exactly, continue sealioning as much as you want

Because no one gives a shit about animals. I mean, gives even less of a shit than they do with humans.

Here’s an example.

Here’s another.

This user in particular is one of the main issues of this community, most of their posts are like that.

But I know that you’re just asking for an example to try to attack it, and there’s not really any point, because if you don’t see the problem from that link, a conversation cannot do enough.

No it wouldn’t because everything is not black and white. Support has different shapes, it’s not all about carrying a sign that says “I support <X>”. Inaction is a form of support, that is not the same as actually doing the thing. Not caring is a form of support when it’s about an asymmetrical interaction, where a side is advantaged above the other, because “not caring” means that you are fine with the expected outcome of the dominant side winning. When this side is bigotry, you are fine with bigotry, which makes you a bigot (because to not be a bigot, you need to see bigotry as a problem). If you don’t care about a rapist trying to rape someone, then you are fine with the conclusion of the victim being raped, which means that you support rape.

The only time where not caring means being neutral, is when the outcomes are completely and equally random. You can not care about flipping a coin if it’s just 50/50. But that’s not the case when it comes to things like discrimination, where it’s clearly established that people discriminating are advantaged over people being discriminated against. If you don’t care, then you’re fine with discrimination, and you are supporting it. Even if you’re not screaming that minorities should die.

I was never saying that it’s completely the same, I was saying that it is supporting an aggressor to let them attack others without reacting. And yes, there are justified reasons, none of which is “I don’t care”

So according to your logic, if you walk past someone being raped or murdered and you don’t give a shit and move on, it’s completely fine, because you’re just being neutral? You would consider that not helping the victim, doesn’t help the aggressor?

How do you even manage to convince yourself of such a logic?

So for you, discrimination and fascism should only be fought against when on a gigantic scale? As long as it’s not the president of a country, you don’t care?

“My neighbour is insulting black people in the street but you know, it’s just a little racial slur a few times per day, it’s not like it’s actual Hitler living next to me, so I don’t care”

How does that kind of logic even make sense?

I don’t know why there are so many enlightened centrists on lemmy lately but it’s really gross.

People spreading horrible ideologies hurt everyone, even if not directly. Lower exposure doesn’t change that.

Hiding your head in the sand doesn’t fix problems.

Also, going form what the conversation was, to “the most frightened person censors everything for everyone” is one of the most gigantic slippery slopes I’ve seen. Blocking sexist, homophobic, racist, transphobic, or discriminatory in whatever other way, content is not “censoring everything for everyone”, it’s not even censoring, it’s telling the hostile pieces of shit that try to destroy society to shut up. And people who want to see that kind of crap can do it on 4chan or whatever shithole so here, there’s no censorship at all.

The more you talk the worse you look, by the way, so you should wonder what kind of message you’re trying to convey. For now it’s looking a lot like enlightened centrism.

As I said, good for you to be privileged enough to have never felt unsafe because of that.

Now get out of your own ass and understand that not everyone is like that, and that if people here are agreeing on the opposite, maybe it means that you’re not the general rule.
