Can it launch in less than 10 secs with a mechanical disk?

Can it not be unresponsive if you have a mechanical disk or a weak CPU?

Ooops, I'll stick to Sublime

I did not say that. I said that Telegram moved to their clouds to evade the sentence of a judge, which means Russian ISPs resorted to banning entire IP ranges, which means law-abiding customers are now affected by it. This is, because of the malicious actions of Telegram, now Russian citizens can't access law-abiding websites hosted in Google and Amazon. That should bother Google and Amazon, who should guarantee the connectivity of their law-abiding customers by kicking out Telegram so the IP range bans are lifted.

In the end Google and Amazon will kick out Telegram, it's probably a matter of days, so I don't understand what this fuss is about.

That's bad, especially that last paragraph, but I would lay the blame directly on Amazon and Google. They should kick Telegram out if having them affects other customers. That's standard practice in hosts, for example when a specific website is receiving a DoS, the website is blackholed so other customers don't see their service interrupted.

Calling Russia a regime is like calling Microsoft "Micro$oft".

>while all others were indiscriminately blocked years ago

As far as I am concerned Telegram was blocked for 1) being used by terrorists and 2) the Telegram staff refusing to turn in data to aid the investigation. This has not happened to other messengers like WhatsApp and they are not blocked. Am I wrong?

Sticks and stones.

I only use one account and I’ve been called off multiple times in the “mainstream” subs for posting to the right-wing ones, sometimes when not even talking about politics. I’m sure most people who post to right-wing subs keep two accounts or even more to keep their activity “segregated”.

Those subs only last long if they manage to stay under the radar. I am afraid someone in here might know someone who works for Reddit and... you know the rest ;P

There's a certain sub I like that is full of sexist and racist stuff and nobody there likes Trump at all. What I mean to say with this is, when you see stuff you don't like on Reddit, that does not mean it's coming from T_D, or that getting rid of T_D would get rid of stuff you don't like.

16:9 is dumb.

>Do you want to live in a crappy apartment with roommates, and not be able to afford to eat at a nice restaurant?

That's how many people I know have lived their entire lives, even if they worked hard. And some of them because they could not find a job. Some are young some are old. You live in a bubble.

Do you really think most people, especially young people, can afford to live in an appartment of their own, or go eat at a nice restaurant? Do you think McDonalds is full of young people because it's better than a nice restaurant?

I also don't think it's a good idea at all. It may be a cultural thing but I'm sure most people in my surroundings will stop working and eventually even fall for substance abuse. I can see myself falling for that. Have you even seen how many NEETs are there? That would go over the roof. I think these UBI discussions are monopolised by people who live in a bubble.
