OK snowflake 😁

So you’re saying everyone I disagree with is not in fact a Nazi? Interesting stuff but it sounds exactly like something a Nazi would say.

And doctors don’t??

It has indeed improved a lot over the last 2 years or so and is now actually quite a mature product, as much as I hate to admit that about an MS product. My biggest gripes with it are its refusal to acknowledge you may be using multiple devices (to this day) and MS’s insistence that a person only do one thing at one time (can’t edit calendar items while checking a chat, for example). Their Linux app is a joke and I’m better off running it from Chrome. The phone app makes the WiFi interface crash constantly and I have to run it off 4G; it is the only app I have this issue with.

Which brings me to another gripe. Teams documentation insists that screen sharing on Linux is not supported, and sure enough you cannot see the option for it while on a call with someone. However if you are in a meeting (with however many people), the option magically appears and works absolutely perfectly.

😄😄 No personal offence meant good sir.

Great distinction.

This isn’t a court of law and I’m not arguing the statutes. I don’t like unilateral censorship in any form and I’d be equally butt hurt if they banned a mod to include pronouns.

Bear in mind we are both here because of the actions of a private corpo.

It’s almost like you exclude yet call it inclusion.

No I do not, no one should. Your comment is the correct way of disagreeing, downvote parades are not.

Bear in mind I don’t give a shit about pronouns or no pronouns, I am against the unilateral censorship of a mod.

Upvotes = correct now? Or I’m wrong cos I have a different opinion to you?

Braindead take

Yah, how dare someone not be a polarised momo and make me have to assess their pov without a convenient label with which to dismiss it.

Dude I thought reddit was leftist and then I came here. Funny thing is I’m a pansy lefty European (believe in social healthcare, UBI and all that good stuff) yet this place is a bit much for me.

Where do you live, Iran? Also the mod doesn’t impinge on your ability to express yourself. Not sure how that relates to being afraid in a game.

I thought so too, but you and I are not everyone else. Imagine if they removed a mod that included pronouns. I would still be against censorship.

Share your opinion, get downvoted. Feels just like reddit!

You are more than welcome! The chapter is called Unification of Humankind for anyone else interested, here is a little excerpt:

“Myths and fictions accustomed people, nearly from the moment of birth, to think in certain ways, to behave in accordance with certain standards, to want certain things, and to observe certain rules. They thereby created artificial instincts that enabled millions of strangers to cooperate effectively. This network of artificial instincts is called ‘culture’.”

It’s literally Sapiens, the first book. The chapter is called the Unification of Humankind, from the quick look I had online.

Sharing, and believing in, fictions is how distilled units of information are efficiently passed down generations and is one of the bedrocks of our development as a species. This is what allows us to have laws and corporations and agreeing to drive on particular side of the road.

Yuval Noah Harari covers this more eloquently in his book Sapiens. You would definitely dig the relevant chapters.
