A Roman style inner courtyard!

To put it bluntly: It’s not women’s job to fix men

Is that so? Surely you expect men to help with the goals of feminism, no?

Imagine saying the same thing in reverse: unequal payment for women because they are not forceful enough to push for more? Sad but what can you do - it's not men's job to fix women after all.

If people really think that, then screw this 'f* you, I got mine ' version of feminism and push for a better life for everyone. This is such a shortsighted way to live and not even try to look beyond your own horizon.

I hear that sentiment quite a bit, can you elaborate?

Seems to me that if you drive it to the extreme the same could be said for existing on earth.

Also surely 'immoral' has gradations that we can push. Child slavery is another level when compared to even screwing the working class out of money.

IP has many many flaws, have to disagree with you on the r&d though. That simply costs upfront money and we don't do a lot of it anymore anyways.

To some degree companies don't even patent their stuff, so that they don't have to publish the inner workings for their competitors. This is especially a problem with china since they pretty notoriously don't give a damn about patents and just copy it anyway. Your Shenzhen example makes no sense to me.

There is enough about ip to dislike anyways:

• It is mainly used as a way to sue each other in the corporate world. This is why they patent everything usually.

• Patents don't even really have to explain how the technique works (or if it really works) in much detail.

• there is little to no recourse if the patent office does not want to grant your patent. On the other hand if they feel like it, they can grant complete shit.

• patents are prohibitively expensive for private people, in granting and upkeep.

Kinda true about the bugs, unfortunately though no longer reserved for Bethesda games. Played d4 a few days after launch and damn we encountered bugs left and right.

At least no forced online so restarting and or reloading is pretty easy. I'm kinda fine with annoying but not game breaking bugs on such a solid base.
