    I’m pretty sure free speech is chaotic. I’m 100% for it, but it’s chaotic.

          if theyre lawful or chaotic, the thing of free speechis that it depends on what you have to say

            Free speech is chaotic specifically because it allows chaotic speech. So free speech being chaotic doesn’t depend on the speaker’s opinions. A particular instance of speech being chaotic depends on the speaker’s opinion. But free speech is chaotic because it’s all about allowing a chaos of speech.

      I think it’s supposed to be use after free, but it isn’t clear because none of the others use that layout

      For those who don’t know: “use after free” is a programming term that means you tried to use something that was stored in a certain place in memory after that thing was already freed (removed from that space in the memory). As a result, you get unexpected behavior. This can be exploited to allow an attacker to get a program to run anything they want.

      Free to play is always unsustainable without microtransactions unless the game is community hosted or open source. That doesn’t represent the overwhelming majority of F2P.

        Article argues that money spent is not recovered properly and highly subsidized for the users.

        By that logic anything that gives more than it takes like road, infra, etc all are not good.

        I think the whole point of having these regulations is to take side of people who use the space and regulate the private companies who would try to maximize profits while giving bare minimum required to keep things running.

          It also argues that municipalities create far too much parking space, reducing the amount of useable area in cities. This is one big reason why most US and Canadian city centers are dying, as more downtown plots are dedicated to parking, and new plots need a crazy amount parking.

          New constructions all have huge parking lots like big box stores and fast food islands, surrounded by a sea of pavement. The lower density reduces propery taxes (as they’re usually calculated by the number of properties, not the used land area), and increases the need for a vehicle to reach locations.

          Free parking in general may help to keep things accessible to everyone (with a car), but the amount of parking is choking everyone out and increasing reliance on car manufacturers and roadwork companies.

      It implies that you should pay to park the car you had no choice but to drive due to lack of any credible infrastructure. In the US at least.

      I mean maybe. I didn’t make it, just conjecture.

        thats how i took it, too. their “generosity” of making something we are forced to use “free” (even though a lot of laws mandate that parking)
