To save dogs, you would advocate killing the children of slaves? The lengths you'll go...

I know the debate about nature vs nurture and it's relevant in some debates. Not this one. People do not have lions and tigers as pets. Some zoo owners probably feel they're passive with the right ownership. Doesn't make owning them good and sensible. If people cannot act sensibly (and they won't), legislation has to kick in.

It is a viscious cycle, and I dont disagree that owners are part of the problem. Shrugging and going "ah well" doesn't fix the problem. Doing nothing gives owners almost the legal freedom to use their dogs to kill folk and get away with it.

Claiming ignorance to avoid solving a problem is weak or deceptive.

These dogs are bred to be strong. To kill. They don't belong in homes and society near children. They should never have been bred in the first place nor imported, but that happened, so gotta deal with it.

People buy these dogs to be intimidating. Compensating for something, I expect. If people are licensed and can prove training, fine, keep them, but if they have already been raised bad, it's probably too late and too risky. A school girls runs past, and bam, disfigured.

You're assuming how this can be done. The law in the UK is that it is illegal to import or breed these dogs. You can implement legislation in which dogs can live out their lives and eventually it ain't a problem.

Of course, I am not willing to watch children and old people getting mauled because you care about violent dogs designed to kill. Kill 'em like they kill me burgers...

Are both dangerous in the wrong hands? Yes.

Seeing things you don't like and blaming the internet...

"I find it particularly hilarious that England calls these American bully X"

"The American Bully Kennel Club divided the American Bully into four categories, including the XL, Pocket, Standard, and Classic, whereas other registries, including the UKC, have approved one consistent size standard.

When you hate the English so much, you just spout bullshit and end up looking silly....

Well, I don't really want to install Facebook spyware on my phone. Signal was made by the guy that designed the encryption used on top apps (if they haven't circumvented that to spy on you yet).

If one of their relatives had cancer, it would be belittling that experience. I would not do that unless I wanted to be a dick.

Try to give a name and model. An interesting privacy suggestion on a non privacy respecting website means folk are forced to click it.

But the companies chosen for login is a slap in the face of anyone who cares about privacy.

If it is e2e encrypted, why would this change mitigate what they are concerned about?

That is a massive disappointment. Hopefully Element gets their video calls sorted. Why can I not just have privacy tools that I can use? Why are the good ones taken away?

Sanity is restored.

Love KDE, and good to see them chipping away at these pain points.

If you start posting, people will join in as they no longer feel the community is dead. Just takes people to make the first move. It's a bit like starting a fire. A bit of work at first, but once alight, you can throw the occasional log on the fire.
