  • But the person in the original comment is wrong. “The software and driver support isn’t there” means that appropriate software does not exist. If they were being honest they would have said “Ableton doesn’t support Linux and I want to stick with Ableton so it doesn’t work for me.” Their inaccurate comment could discourage people who do not have a strong preference toward Ableton from trying Linux.
















  • Sincere question. Obviously France is racist as fuck and instituting (or enforcing, whichever) policies in a racist way. But I’m seeing a lot of people saying that these outfits being banned are not actually religious at all, and are only culturally popular within the cultures of the people being targeted. If that’s the case, why are they still coming to school wearing them? If I were a kid and the government suddenly decided I’m not allowed to wear blue jeans to school, I’d wear khaki pants and then meet up with my friends and say “wtf is the deal with this new policy”

    If they’re just clothes and not religious garb, why are kids still wearing them to schools which don’t allow them?


  • If you can’t behave civilly with another person you have no business swinging a sword at them. You should protest the event hosting them if you feel so strongly about it. You certainly shouldn’t be participating in the event. If you decide to show up and compete against the other person you’re already past all that, and now you need to behave civilly with them.

    The point is, sure, there are people who don’t deserve respect. But respect is a necessary prerequisite for this kind of competition. If you can’t respect your opponent you shouldn’t be competing against them. You can’t disrespect them and also compete against them, you pick one or the other.
