Indeed, a tiny notice on your phone to please be quiet is horrifying.  I don’t understand how these people can muster the willpower to keep going without driving their car off a cliff.

“Hold my Baguette”

Surely he’s big enough, and been featured on here enough that we stop referring to him in headlines as, “man”?

Counter-point: Self-checkout (when properly configured and working) is the best.

This is not meant to be condescending, but I feel like in 2019, people should really be all gaming on SSDs, whether on a console or a PC. You can buy a 250-500 internal SSD with an enclosure for around $70 or less these days (and that’s without a sale), or $25-$40 more for a commercial external SSD. That price seems…

There is no budget shown for it, you can’t just say “well we spent money on other things”.

This story was proven to be fake, Phillips approached the students not the other way around, and it was a group of African Americans screaming racist things at the students. I’ve watched a bunch of videos of the event and the students never said or did anything remotely racist or wrong, they were just doing school…

Do we really want to say that anti-cop-killer legislation is also anti-Black-Lives-Matter legislation? I could have sworn that it was Republicans who insisted that BLM was about killing cops, and in doing so they were deliberately misrepresenting what BLM was about.

Pffftttt! Let’s suppose you were hired by BET and you were equally idiotic on camera so BET yanked you. Would you release BET from a contract owing you millions of dollars when no one put a gun to the morons at NBC who signed her contract? Not on your life—you’d laugh all the way to the bank—just like Blackface…

If you buy into the “new” definition of “you can’t be racist if you don’t have power” to cover up their own racism, then you are part of the problem.

If you judge someone based on their race, that’s racism. Period. Stop trying to excuse bad behavior.

You sound like an Io9 headline.

Or, maybe, they figured people were smart enough to figure this all out. Just because a show doesn’t club you over the head with its point doesn’t mean it isn’t there.

This is impossible to take seriously. It honestly feels like an insult to actual sexual assault victims like myself.

Yeah, take that, moms who can’t nurse!

Those things are not mutually exclusive. Women can be afraid for their safety and men can be afraid of false accusations at the same time.

Replace the word ‘instance’ with ‘echo-chamber’ and you’ll see why this is only going to be more problematic in the long run. This is the same thing Facebook groups do and it’s proven to be a breeding ground for extremist ideologies. This kind of things is largely why society is so politically polarized these days:…

Yup, that “new” definition is a very dangerous thing and is being used to try to wage “guilt free” sexism, racism, or whatever. Thing is, it only perpetuates it. Saying “X group can’t be y-ist!” is enabling bad behavior and ensuring continued conflict.

Couldn’t have said it better.

I apologize, but your sister was so easy I couldn’t pass it up and I had no idea she was racist.

I agree with the lesser sentence - not because I particularly have sympathy for car thieves, but because if would-be thieves who accidentally find themselves in this situation know that they won’t be penalized for taking the baby, I’d think they’d be more likely to do what this guy did. If they know that they’ll get…
