I mean I had to deal with all the bs indoctrination of Christianity when I was growing up, but I definetly wouldn't assign those barbaric constraints as the motive behind a highly advanced alien species, religion was a blight from power hungry authoritarian people in the past. As I've stated I don't believe a society which has not mastered harmony with its own species and planet as capable to be that advanced. A greedy authoritarian society will tear itself apart before it ever reaches a "highly advanced" society. You could commit genocide and given enough time different races will be born again, bringing you into a repeating cycle of chaos. Look at how unstable any extremely religious area is on earth, you think that's going to create advanced societies? I sure as hell don't nor would I attribute such nonsense to a being capable of traversing the universe, one who understands the principles of physics and can unify them with the quantum mechanics is not going to assign unkowns to a god, they would investigate the mechanisms behind them and try to define them. That's a step above what we have rationally discovered and I don't attribute religion to rational beings, it's completely at odds.

How many times do you need to be told, you don't buy games on PC for full price when on a budget you wait for sales that will frequently get you down to 60% of the price if not even lower for a couple year old game. Go for more indie titles and you have an exponentially larger pool of games to pick from than on game pass. Then you are not having your library pulled out from under you when Microsoft decides not to support a title anymore.

You are a fucking idiot lmaooo, at least it's entertaining seeing you properly roasted for your clear fucking misunderstandings and defence of closed down personal computing hardware. Bravo I'm sure some Nintendo corporate stooge is smiling at you for justifying locking down bought hardware to a closed ecosystem with outrageous prices for games. Why the fuck are you even using federated social media if you love locked down controlled ecosystems?

And I'm saying how that being such a common interpretation is disheartening. It should be more apt to apply that any sufficiently advanced being is going to value harmony not disorder which would lead to instability and eventual collapse, hence why it would be an apt litmus test to see if a society would be capable of responsibly utilizing any of their technology. The fact so many are just like "well I like tech" and someone's gonna say a group so I should say a small minority is extremely sad to see being a common take. I would hope more would recognize the implications behind such an ask, but I guess in this small sample size that's not the case.

Based on the way the meme plays off, the only practical way to get the tech would show you value life over technology, hence the option for none, if it's not a consensus for none how could you expect that species to act responsible with the tech and hence the tattooing and leaving.

Based on the fact they tattoo your answer afterwards, the only way you would have gotten technology is by voting none in a consensus showing you value life over technology, therefore your more likely to be responsible with it, vote on anything other than none and you have voided your ability to be responsible hence no technology. The fact this is not a more common interpretation is honestly disheartening.

You mean buy AND let them abuse you, you pay for no ads, not for privacy or lack of data collection

I don't blame North Koreans for being in a dictatorship, why would I blame Palestinians?

Hate to break it to you, ftx's biggest scam was in tokenized securities still being traded today and being used as free locates for market makers without any real shares backing these things. Wall Street is so fucking corrupt its not even funny.

He made the same mistake Madoff did

Also what the fuck are you talking about here? Madoff turned himself in because no one in the SEC would look at the DTCCs books. Not to mention his other fleece of payment for order flow is now an industry standard for almost all brokers and market makers.

No he was creating free locates for market makers with tokenized securities that had no backing, that still haven't been resolved and the equity swap data that could also show more fruadelent uses of this shit keeps getting delayed by the ctfc. He's gonna get house arrest and nice service for his part in helping market makers fleece more people.
