The thing is you can make ironic bigotry. Many comedians (at least in the UK) make jokes on a par if not worse than this in terms of content. They however know how to make it clear that it is a joke and also tend to have a more mature audience that’d know it’s a joke from the very start even, in most cases, out of…

Words have always scared us. I know this is a little extreme but that is one of the main reasons terrorism can work outside of a very small community.

I completely agree with you it isn’t like stand ups aren’t able to make jokes about religion (including Judaism) or race. Jimmy Carr, Frankie Boyle and Ricky Gervais are just some examples. However their job is to make jokes and they aren’t performing to such an impressionable target audience.

I agree with you in general but if they take a hard line against him neo nazi sites may use it against Google. I’m not necessarily saying it will dramatically affect Google but they aren’t invincible and I think they know that. They’ll do whatever is safest for them or what their shareholders want. 

This shouldn’t be normal though. As many other commentators have stated normalising racism is one of the first steps to being able to commit an atrocity against a race. I am not suggesting, in the slightest, that Pewdiepie is racist but he should know that the worlds political climate isn’t very stable at the moment…

Britains’ vauxhall Astras are soooo much better looking and they’re just soooo bloody fast

This is off topic but does anyone at Lifehacker / Gizmodo know if/when the UK is getting Youtube red?

I don’t know other than I’m from the UK but the early access program is now apparently full. Although something that allows you to download videos is unlikely to be released by Google in any country which has Youtube Red once it has been beta tested.

There was very little the US could take out on the USSR to be honest. MAD (Mutually Assured Destruction) removed any real chance of war so all that was left were proxy wars. The US also probably had to attempt to prove to the world that the US was a better ally and that allying with the soviets would remove all help…

Just FYI I may not know this perfectly but AFAIK:

That still seems shockingly low, In the UK people carriers can usually manage 30MPG even on city MPG

Not really, It would have to be efficient yes but most car companies smallest petrol car can manage that at least in the UK, I don’t know for the states.

They will change the price though, it gives them an excuse as the majority of cars will have the tax so car companies will just stick it into the price as extra profits. Also someone may not want an American car, they might want a cheaper Japanese designed car maybe or a more fuel efficient European designed car…

If they were elected they could be bribed by car manufacturers more easily as they would need money to get re-elected.

How many of Trumps advisers are elected?

Outside the US this deal is even better. Long haul trips in the UK and usually considered to be London to Edinburgh or Glasgow (414.8 miles and 441.8 Miles respectively) so would be able to go there and back with around 100 miles to spare. If you factor in the UKs incredibly high fuel price around $4.50 for one US…

Not certain but I think you only get a 1060 by default (three or four from top of the current range) and have to pay even more for a 1080 (Top or second top AFAIK) also most games that are actually intensive enough to need this you need to buy separately.

This kind of thing, any serious politics that will change thousands of peoples lives probably isn’t worth making jokes about. I know this is a blog and it’s supposed to be lighthearted but it takes the power away from what Bernie is saying and just makes Trump lying a joke when, as he’s president-elect any lying…

Firstly no point in bleeping out your swearing, no one minds if you swear here everyone knows what you meant.

I don’t know, to be honest probably never but there is no way any senator no matter how determined could show more than two or three of his lies in one session. This is certainly the way forward even though it isn’t the stopping point.
