This will continue because of cowardice, unfortunately. Integrity is one of the only things that separates moral and ethical action. In the moment, groupthink/mob mentality/group mentality led to conformity which is exactly what happened, and is an extreme form of pressure. Regardless of the action/inaction in the moment, integrity was challenged and defeated. One of the only ways this will change is something that will probably not happen due to conformism within the system. You lived how hard it was… your integrity was challenged, and ultimately inaction was the choice that was made resulting in net zero integrity.

As everything in hindsight reveals the truth, the inaction feeds conformity. If it’s never challenged, then it evolves into a “norm.”

Started a post with a topic in the same ballpark:

Interesting thought: “Because I have my entire extensive library on steam, I’m kind of stuck with them. And while they are not abusing that presently, I’m fairly confident they will someday.”

Steam subscription $9.99 to access your library 😐 - man that feels wrong. But also can probably happen with the TOS noone reads

That’s actually pretty awesome, thanks!

Nice plug, thank you

That’s some dedication! Sometimes I wish I would do this more often. I start doing it, then it just fades away… Might be because some of the games don’t apply to my taste, then I forget to keep up with it.

I quit not only because of vaping and tobacco-less nicotine pouches, but because I wanted it. If you are buying it for a family member, you can’t make them quit… Hopefully they are wanting to, because you can’t make that decision for them. Just like any other addict.

I’d imagine it being a bit like shift working

Wasn’t intended to be that. Good point though, thanks for the feedback

Excellent point. Hopefully it will as it seems like its in the scope of AI capability.

Touche. This post came off a bit rash, words matter. 👍

Thirded. Came from Proton even. It’s been solid for sure!

Use it daily with a couple applications. Namely Thunderbird on Android and Mailbird on Windows.
