See my other post below for a little more context, but basically it showed that people will do awful things if someone in authority tells them to

Well yes and no. You can say that it’s just the people in any experiment but past a certain point you have to be able to extrapolate the results to the population at large. And (again, if memory serves) the results of this experiment have been replicated numerous times across numerous population samples.

Also, the point of Milgram isn’t that people are fucked up, it’s that people will follow orders when those orders are issued by someone in a perceived position of authority. And it’s funny you mention Nazis because the experiment was Milgram’s response to the “I was just following orders” defence from the Nuremberg trials.

In conclusion: non-fucked-up people will do fucked up things if their boss tells them to.

If I correctly remember my psychology lessons from 10+ years ago though, the results of Milgram’s experiment has been reproduced countless times which sort of backs up the original point.

Your argument is really “Indian isn’t a race”?

Are you telling me a new Half Life game came out three years ago and I missed it?

It’s definitely racist when you say that those are Indian family values. It’s not racist is you say those are Sunak family values.

I would say it’s more like the shape of a duck

I think any reconstruction of a dinosaur where there is just a skull as a refence point will be taken with a fairly large pinch of salt. However, many dinosaurs look fairly similar to other dinosaurs that we do have more complete fossils as reference, so they’ll end up being based on those as well.

Having your soul devoured generally will mean being tortured forever and becoming a plaything for the daemons that reside in the warp. And not in a fun way, more like in the way a mouse becomes a cat’s plaything but unfathomably worse and also forever. Did I mention it’s forever?

Chaos gives curses just as often as it gives blessings. Look at plague marines for example: I’m not sure I’d consider a gaping maw in my abdomen or an eight foot long cluster of tentacles much of a boon. But the blessing is that your mind is now made of a bunch of maggots that somehow function as a brain so you don’t really care about the festering sores and putrid rolls of fat slowly bonding to your armour.

The possibility of immortality is, I believe, only made possible at your patron God’s whim (e.g. Lucius - every time he is killed he gets resurrected) or…still at your patron God’s whim by ascending to daemonhood. I suppose both of these things kind of protect your soul? But I would also guess that the moment Slaanesh is tired of Lucius’ antics s/he will dump his soul into the eternal pit of slavering daemons who will turn him into a violin made of pure sensation and play him with a bow strung from barbed wire. And daemonhood comes with its own set of restrictions like not being able to exist in the material realm without assistance.

Is there any way to make JS safer? E.g. limiting the scope of its access to specific functions (e.g. visual/DOM changes, posting/querying a server only but no local function), or is it just inherently unsafe?

EDIT: I understand your point by the way. Is it ethical to pirate things? Maybe or maybe not, but I think the stance of most people here is that pirating stuff that is produced by giant, obscenely wealthy media conglomerates is generally okay.

You are discussing piracy in the context of media and copyright infringement, in which the owner of the pirated material is a corporation and the pirate is an actual person.

By comparing the act of pirating corporate owned digital material to a fictional scenario in which one person is copying another person’s physical possessions very much implies that you see the corporate owners of digital material as people.

They look ace

No that rhymes with has a gun

I haven’t made my way through this whole post yet, but it’s really great stuff. Thank you for putting in the effort to create it.
