    There is actually no contradiction. I’m pretty sure everyone would be on board with those CEOs going to prison for life instead of them being killed.

    The difference is that a convicted murderer is being punished. Healthcare CEOs are instead rewarded with a life of luxury for killing people. The law does not punish them for their transgressions. A citizen can not imprison the CEO for life. What they can do is shoot em.

    So what many people are saying is that “rather a bad person gets punished than rewarded”. And if the only realistic punishment possible is killing them, because it’s fast and easy to do, then that’s deemed as acceptable even though killing is bad. Being rewarded for being evil is worse.




  • I’m pretty sure most torrent applications have a “set location” button on the torrents, which automatically moves the torrent to the location you choose.

    I know that qbittorrent also allows you to rename files and folders within the torrent.

    The only thing that I have not seen possible is to change the directory structure within a torrent - i.e. move files one directory level up to “flatten” it. If a file is within three nested folders, then it is always like that, but you are able to change both the file and folder names, just have to do it from within the torrent client so that it can pick that change up.

    But what you can always do is use filesystem links instead of moving the actual files around, keeping the actual torrent files in some invisible data directory and only “operating” on the links. Works more or less well depending on your OS :D






  • What about the people that can’t move their hands properly and it would be hard to select stuff on a new menu on startup? What about the people that can see better on dark themes? It’s ableist for you to suggest a menu or light theme as the default!

    The thing is that defaults will never accomodate everyone. The only possible thing you can do is provide options. Just because you have a “solution” that is better for you, does not mean that that is better for everyone. All you’re doing is trying to make something perfect for you, which is selfish, and not an improvement.

    It’s absolutely not a skill worth having. If you ever run into issues and need the CLI, you can always get your knowledge right in that moment. If you already can do everything with your GUI and get the same results, getting the knowledge to do it some other way is just wasted time and duplicate work.
