Come on, how many ETH are you “hodling”? Tell the truth.

What did they refuse to fix? They recalled the Tread+. If they’re selling other dangerous products, that should be litigated. Why is it not?

I don’t understand why “Boaty McBoatface” is the de facto standard of terrible collective decisions. It’s a great fucking name!

I disagree with your analysis. I dislike civil asset forfeiture only when it’s abused. If someone is actually hauling a load of illegal guns, or engaged in human trafficking, they 100% should have their vehicle seized and sold.

I dunno - I bailed on Y, but I watched Station Eleven on the edge of my seat from start to finish. They couldn’t be more different, even though they’re both about pandemics.

Station Eleven was PERFECT in its timing, because it’s ultimately about how you survive and process this sort of trauma. Y, on the other hand, was basically a thriller that doesn’t bring much thoughtfulness to the table, and that’s why I bailed on it.

Do they? People spend real money on fake slot machine apps (i.e. which don’t pay out real money) all the time, and there’s no argument to be made that those games are “fun” beyond the gambling dopamine rush.

Why does it matter if it’s legal or not? Laws against jailbreaking your personal devices are simply not enforced - no one is out there actively looking for individual users to sue for jailbreaking. As long as you aren’t selling the devices you mod or distributing tools to facilitate piracy, you’re never ever going to…

“Creative ownership” as you define it a) doesn’t really exist, because everything defaults to the public domain eventually and b) is entirely a modern invention. Creators through most of history had very few rights - people have been copying books without permission for the entire history that books have existed.

By your logic, buying used games is ALSO stealing, as it deprives the creators of money they would’ve earned if you purchased it. Same for borrowing from a library. It’s time to admit that you just don’t have a very sophisticated understanding of the world around you. It’s easier for people with an affinity for…

I am absolutely entitled to Nintendo’s games. Art belongs to society, not to those who create it. Hence the public domain. I have no respect for the current legal structure around the public domain - I believe copyright should be restricted to a 10-20 year period at maximum. So I’m willing to break that idiotic law…

Here we go again. Piracy is not “stealing” - theft deprives someone of something. Piracy doesn’t deprive anyone of anything, ESPECIALLY if they’re not selling it any more.

Hot dogs are DEFINITELY sandwiches, and pizza is just an open-faced sandwich.

Truly gutting to hear Big Bird speak and realize Caroll Spinney is done with the role for good. Even worse than AI Mark Hamill in Book of Boba Fett.

Everyone familiar with the law agreed that it did not apply here. It truly is just Parson being a moron.

Yep. And they should all be referred to as “less lethal” for that exact reason. Calling them “non-lethal” perpetuates the fallacy that these forms of assault are harmless, and thus don’t require regulation or care in their application.

It’s important to know that you can only play the original Link to the Past and Super Metroid if you get the New 3DS. Very disappointing for those of us with an original 3DS. I’m probably going to buy a Retroid Pocket 2+ to emulate them instead.

If you’re willing to pony up cash, there are TONS of services that will reveal someone’s address. If she owns her house and it’s in her name, you can often find the info yourself using publicly accessible databases. Doxxing someone is dead simple the vast majority of the time, unless you take great pains to obscure…

Rubber bullets at close range can easily still be lethal depending on where they hit. I’d call them “less lethal” not “non-lethal.”

That sounds more like something to address in therapy, rather than to get the rest of the world to conform to your pet peeves.
