Hey look, another article that removes intent from the definition of racism so that it can turn yet another generally important issue into a race based argument. I’ll just file that over here with “Malaria is racist.”

Seriously, this is an important issue, but you’re going to just push more people away with the race…

it’s actually not that easy at all because of how how the game tracks attributes. it’s a DYNASTY simulator, which means yes, each gender has dozens of different variables distinct from the other. For some cultures it may not matter as much (pagans, with egalitarian succession) for others it’s hugely complicated…

I’m sure you guys know a lot about privacy with the amount of crap popping up in my feeds and adverts on Gizmodo. It’s one of the worst ad revenue generated sites out there. Authors here continue to paint Google as this diabolical company but then are also relying on them so their company continues to generate money…

According to the New York Times, intelligence officials with awareness of the situation seem to have confirmed that the attack was the result of a classified Israeli cyber operation...

Gizmodo - a little editorial responsibility? Is your sensationalist header worth a few more views? The US just had 4 Million vaccines in one day - 5X what Bhutan has done. Yes it’s great what they did logistically, and for their people, but there is little to compare to the USA and many other countries.

This Pandemic has shown that critical thinking and just a little more science-based education might improve our chances of everything. Too often these “Arbiter’s of Knowledge” spread such misinformation that it’s fact to many before there is even a chance of correcting misconceptions. I’m a big fan of Free Speech, but…

I think he’s fallen into a bit of a pattern for being “the bitchy gay [person/thing]” in every bit where he appears. It’s a funny schtick, and these bits are written pretty well, but he can do more. He’s got such great dramatic energy and comedic timing. I don’t think they’re being imaginative enough. They need to…

I don’t get it. I find him to be a distraction in every skit he’s in (and not in a good way).  He’s a one trick pony and the trick is annoying as shit.

Nobody blames THE WATER......

“Why don’t they hold themselves just as accountable as the companies they’re rallying against?”

More fucking apps.  yay.   I’d just like to use a paper card. 

I don’t know what being “3 months in” has to do with the damaging, deterrence-focused rhetoric emanating from this administration that, if anything, will only create the perverse incentive for desperate families to send their children on the long and dangerous journey to the U.S. alone.  I’ll give the administration…

Whenever a corporation drags out a meme that’s been dead for years it always has big “How do you do, fellow kids” energy.

If you’re vaccinated, an IRL card that says so is all you need, same as a driver’s license. Take your spyware app and shove it up your nose with a swab.

Came here to say this. I had to re-read the article, cause I got to the end and was like “so...what IS the app we’re not supposed to download called?”, then I realized it was literally called “System Update” and thought, in the entirety of owning phones, rooted or not, I have never needed to download an app to update…

So...wait...

It was never on the play store, meaning to get it on to your phone you have to unlock dev mode, check to allow apps from unknown sources, and sideload it. To do all of this you have to have some understanding of how android works, meaning you know that your phone downloads updates automatically unless you…

A better discussion would be a discussion on what a fuckery of an article this is. Took them till the final paragraph so state that’s it’s never been on the playstore, therefore hardly a risk other than those dimwitted enough to seek it out for download.

Exactly why Pacific Rim worked so well, it was what people wanted, robots fighting giant monsters.

But Godzilla vs Kong has a problem: its titanic action heights just come too rarely to justify an absolute slog of a movie.

Pacific Rim aside, my favorite Kaiju movie from the modern era is still Rampage. It’s fun, it’s dumb, and I can actually see what the monsters are doing as opposed to straining to seem them through the middle of rain, a blizzard, a dust storm, and underwater. The humans actually get fun stuff to do in the movie rather…
