I wouldn't consider myself part of the lower denominator of action movie fans. I like a wide range of movies and I look for positive things in even the worst movies. I am generally along for the ride no matter the premise or film quali

I listen to a lot of progressive metal/math metal and they basically live and die by music theory. While I am not the most musically educated individual, from my listening experience it allows them to defy the listeners expectations. W

My only issue with this is that Boxing isn't as dominate of a combat sport as it once was. MMA/UFC has split the market share and by most accounts is more popular than Boxing. This reduces the total number of professional boxers

well there are legal consequences of causing or being part of an accident, unlike spreading COVID or Influenza. So we don't consider road deaths okay by nearly any metric. If you want to call out bad comparisons your position should be

Thats fair. I am all for the hybrid situation where there is an office people can use while also supporting the remote workforce. IDK if it's economical but I think the choice helps ensure everyone has the opportunity to the work envir

I am confused then. You want to go into an office so that you can stay living in a small apartment? The position was that the WFH situation helped those that had their own space. But you're saying that not having your own space is a ch

I am not sure where you live, but I would expect that WHF allows those under 30 a similar financial relief to those above. For you to be forced to live in an 800 sqft place working in tech, I would assume you live in one of the larger metro

Honestly, I loved Atlantis and Universe. Atlantis was purely character driven imo. The plot was more or less a rehash of SG-1 missions to the point they directly start referencing the SG-1 mission report lol. But McKay, Sheppard, Weir, Rona

Yet WeWork happened still. And tons of investors get screwed by scams or companies completely lying. Makeup company Coty couldn't verify Kylie Jenners companies earning and once they audited it they found out that it wasn't making

I don't believe it's that simple. At least in the past. When you have no options to buy another product then all the trends will point towards that being the consumer demand. That's like saying everyone loves Comcast because

Discord is more like a ventrilo replacement for gamers. It was primarily voice chat in its early days. They've done a lot of work to make the chatroom space on par with any other chat application you'd use otherwise. They also now

If its not someone you just played with and isn't on your friends list, I feel like most people don't really interact with the message. CSGO has had so many skin scammers through chats that it's basically expected that you&#x

I usually search for things using the Google widget on my home screen. And from there I will "Open the link in Chrome". This means that I end up opening an massive AMP link not the direct link in Chrome. So I have to basically cop

The amount of effort it can take to the the actual link to the article is just insane. Trying to share something through your phone that has been AMP'd is basically signaling it's not worth the effort to send the article at all. A

I find plenty of these types of communities through Discord, and I think that is part of the equation that's left out here. I don't really like discord much, but the reason I get when I do is to go check in on those friends. Usual

No, I would argue hedge funds and banks are treating BTC like any other investment; They believe it will make money. Banks and hedge funds don't inherently care about currencies. They care about the currency that governs their lives bu

Bitcoin innovated through a blockchain years ago and the world has already adopted that. But the current state of bitcoin makes it bad at its other 'innovation', digital currency. Bitcoin is far too volatile to be a widespread, st

I don't know that it's entirely fair to say there is literally a single competitor. While Android is a single platform, you're free to get it from a range of vendors that all add their own flavor to Android. Some are really l

One thing that, while possible, would take time and be non-trivial is their network hardware distribution. They are have more compute locations globally than Amazon, and it's not close. And one of the main focuses Cloudflare has worked

And we arrive at the premise. They can build the tech, but they can't be bothered to navigate the social dynamics that make up the rest of the world.

Well in fairness to WSB, it was really built around loss porn, not sticking it to the hedge funds. So even those people losing their life savings are contributing the to the WSB cause so long as they show off all the red.

Okay, but that wouldn't open up the researcher for a lawsuit, it would just provide the company with a PR leg to stand on. Nothing about this case is similar to what you outlined, and would not meet the legal requirements for a success

Would security researchers or watchdogs go around and say things publicly without evidence to defend their claims? Because thats what opened up Rudy for this lawsuit. He made unsubstantiated claims that possibly damaged the reputation of th

> the New Yorker replaced their human editors with AI ones, then the outcome is the same and they are still publishers. Okay, but being a publisher doesn't MEAN anything. Not socially, not legally. And MY point was that the New York

Well in your case with the New Yorker, they actually review and actively publish the information. Where is the peer reviewed check from Facebook? Where do these status' imply that Facebook supports and endorses them? And what is the so

Facebook doesn't create the content that you share. Is Google a publisher because you have a gmail account? What we are talking about at its core is a platform that allows you to talk to people you know or might want to know. Is it obj

If we want to continue down a path of honest discussion, at no point did people who firmly believed Trump was guilty of collusion with Russia devolve into storming a government building. And, the Russia topic by and large never called into
