Loeffelmaenn··on How I bypassed Amazon's Kindle web DRM
Ever since AI got big everybody always uses 100 million lists in their writing. It gets really annoying to read.

Loeffelmaenn··on Two weeks later David Bennett is alive, his pig’s heart beating soundly
I am not talking about death penalty. I honestly think death penalty is too lenient. After you're dead there is no more punishment. And like you said:

> how many of them even expect to get out alive?

What I would want is suffering for a long time. Now is that justice or vengance? I say it's both.

> Which is probably what they deserve

Is that not what you would describe as just?

I of course think that example is not just. However I think there a certain crimes like mass murder are beyond being forgivable. It's where I think the only just thing is vengance.

Also justice can't be objective. Put n people in a room and ask them what is just and you'll get n different answers.

I think it's more that justice means something different to different people. I think that vengeance can be justice.

Loeffelmaenn··on OnlyFans to block sexually explicit videos starting in October
It really doesn't sit right with me that payment processors can emit such a huge pressure that OnlyFans is willing to loose 99.9% of their userbase becuase they just have no other choice.
Loeffelmaenn··on There are at least 10 different Microsoft design conventions in Windows 11
I mean people thought the same thing about Windows 10 and to this day it's a mix of 7 different designs or so.
