You’re going to steal in response to stealing…? Unless you’re of the opinion that since it’s data, it’s not stealing?

Yes, I know. 99.9% of those shootings are kids who have zero emotional self-control, zero outlets, zero friends, and access to a gun. It's not a terrorist. There is a dictionary definition of a terrorist. I don't know how much mor

Does this affect signal strength? I'm just annoyed I can't get more than two bars at home, or talk on the phone and take a shit at the same time.

You didn't specify those - you specified "shootings". It's not my fault you're unable to actually make your point known.

I’m not in the industry, so I can’t speak intelligently on this, but as a user, literally the only change I’ve actually noticed in my day-to-day is that when they removed 3G, I lost a shitload of connectivity. I live probably half a mile fr

Is this a serious question? Because it was a terrorist group killing people to make a point, not somebody who has lost their sanity and, failing to have any other outlets, takes it out on the weak. How are people THIS dense?

Accidents. The aviation industry is the worst example you could use. Every single time, the goal is to find the issue, NOT the blame. The industry is insanely safe in large part BECAUSE they refuse to frame it as a crash, and instead frame

You think they were doing it on purpose every time someone is in an accident, or you think every time someone says "accident", they're referring to or you're purposely missing the nuance to make a point nobody agrees wit

Maybe if you have zero understanding of things like emotion and humanity, and also cannot tell the difference between an accident and a mass murder . Otherwise, this is surface-level insanity.

The premise of every single one of them is wrong because you’re depressed and projecting. You’re just so dedicated to searching for evil that you’ve completely confused “look at this goofy person” for “FUCK THIS SELF-RIGHTEOUS PRICK”.

Him responding to why he's freeballing it in the new movie is another gem. Very cute thread.

Thank you for posting exactly the hilariously wrong interpretations I'm actively speaking about.

Antisemitism and satire - famously the same thing and this is definitely not an insane comparison.

I was mostly curious about the source and figured that would bring it out. Sorry.

It wouldn't require perfect accuracy, just rough accuracy and a human to confirm, and it's already more than good enough for that. I do not understand this confusion surrounding modern math.

Gates never said that, for what it's worth.

I'm not paying for it, so when they get wordy and stupid, I just respond with something akin to "turn that response into like half a paragraph."

As an example, you do realize that in the South Park episode where Gerald starts farting into a wine glass after buying an electric car, they're not making fun of people who buy electric cars, but rather people who think they're s

I love the idea that one side has simply been historically evil in your mind, and that by not spending most of their time explaining carefully to everyone how that group IS in fact evil and despicable, they're somehow part of the extre

Those intrinsic costs are still muddled within digital payment systems which represent nothing tangible. You can take loans out from world banks, you can run your country into slavery, or you can do a million other things you want which are

Even Canada and Mexico aren't stupid enough to align with China, and if you think a power vacuum will simply exist and remain in balance in perpetuity, I've got a bridge to sell you. If you're just talking about the relativel

I just run a VM with linux running WINE so I can browse securely on Safari, and all of this is on an rPi I actually vampire tapped into the coax network of the local town hall. Still feels unsafe.

There was an American presidential candidate who ran on the platform of Americans getting to own their data and privacy like property in... 2016? I think? Agree with it or not, he was pretty forward-thinking at least.

This entire statement relies on the idea that world leaders are highly rational actors, which they absolutely are not.

Everyone is just gonna stop trying to acquire influence for some reason...? Or do you just think that, for some reason, this would now magically balance itself out any time any world leader thinks "wow that's a huge vacuum that ne

Nobody appointed the US leader of the world, what are you talking about? It's just a matter of "whoever is most powerful and influential". There's no war needed, and the US never conquered the planet. I'm not doubti

Does anyone in power anywhere actually think China has finally overtaken the US hegemony? Or are we pretending someone else might somehow hold that position?
