A lot of the comments here is why I have been disgusted with the left in the last few years, having always voted D before and, at simultaneously, being disgusted by the trumpanzee right. The so called "woke" (in case someone whine

Telegram is not a behemoth like Facebook so doesn't have their resources to moderate everything. Even Facebook isn't particularly good at it. They mostly rely on software which often produces false positives. This arrest is comple

Zaluzhny has been a royal pain in the ass for American military advisors and is now paying the price.

Looks like there's finally a benefit to Android OS being such a clusterfuck with some many versions being currently active on a significant portion of devices. Not updating quickly increases the number of versions floating around.

That's partially true but mostly an excuse people, who think they're smart and deserve to get funded, make for not being able to get funding. Hustlers get funded regardless of their background.

Lots of good replies but I liked this one the best. 100% right on and what a ton of technically smart people don't understand. Tons of technically very smart people are a great example of that. Are they technically smart? Yes. Do they

Would love to know where you're meeting all these amazing girls. Online dating absolutely sucks for men with the exception of the ones who look like cover models and are over 6 feet tall. Everyone else might as well go die in a ditch.

The guy you're replying to appears to be a perfect example of a woke idiot. The whole idea that Joe Rogan is extremely controversial is incredibly stupid. The guy has an interesting, super popular podcast where he talks to super intere

That's not true actually. Not a fan of the modern Russia but a fan of accuracy. That plane was shot down by rebel Donbass forces by mistake. They were not well trained and mistook it for a military plane.

America is really killing itself slowly (if people stop having kids we'll die out eventually but terrible economic consequences will hit much earlier) because of how bad the policies here are. Family values is just something conservati

I'm intimately familiar with the space, especially when it comes to Silicon Valley startups, and it's no cynicism, but reality that most of them do, in fact, start out looking to be bought. In fact, that's the #1 goal of VCs,

Skype pulled the plug, not imo.

To be fair Skype (MS) cut them off and without any warning. It wasn't their decision. That was actually one of the reasons they cited for doing this. Always at the mercy of external decision makers.

Couldn't have said it better myself. As soon as imo drops support for other messengers my connections are gonna go from over a 100 to 4. And I'm powerless to fix this.
