Cheating? Was boycotting last year as well, so a bit out of the loop 😅

Maybe the pertinent question is “Where is the money being spent now? Who is supplying the platform?”.

Follow the money?

For a second there, I thought the man photo was Elon Musk with an aging-filter 😅

So … How likely is it that Russia fiddled with the election? 🙄

Also, fuck 😮‍💨

“Drats! My evil schemes are thwarted yet again by reason and sensible suggestions! When will this citric tyranny end?!?! Curse you, Lime! !!!”

Mr. Hacker falls to his knees, releasing a primal scream towards the heavens, torrential rain soaking his purple tuxedo, turning brackish as it mixes with his salty tears of rage.

“MUAHAHAHAHA!!!” — Hacker, probably

I fucking love the thought of paying Big Corporate in ‘exposure’ 😂

Also my basic experience — nobody lost anything (Linux ISOs, obviously), because the alternative was not me buying something.

Edit: As an adult, I’ve spent more money on vinyl records in the last decade than I have buying music for the first three quarters of my life. And much of the music in the first three quarters was also on vinyl.

And then Spotify subscription fees since launch. What is that, 20 years? 😳 And now I’m trying to move to self-hosted because all of Spotify’s buying stock in weapon manufacturers and giving head to Dumbph & Friends is making me retch 🤢

* gruff New Jersey accent * Pack it in, boys!

Touché 👍

Honestly haven’t heard of this happening in Europe before, but also haven’t done any research before now, and I don’t read a lot of news.

Seems it’s a surprisingly (for me, at least) big thing in the UK, but until recently was more associated with gang violence, with young men being the main victims, as opposed to the more classic “man has precious ‘honor’ and feelings hurt by woman, manly and honorable man scars woman for life so everyone can see how honorable he is”-scenario.

Worldwide, 80% of victims are still female.

It’s worth noting that, according to these statistics, the second and third European countries on the list, France and Italy, have a combined 14 attacks, which is less than the 20 in USA.

If only the economic rift between the indigent and the insanely wealthy Americans wasn’t so great, you’d all be able to afford guns, and not have to resort to these disgusting “European” tactics 😓

Maybe we should start a GoFundMe campaign? If it works for paying for healthcare, maybe it will work for getting everyone a gun?

I fail to see how this is news. A complete tragedy, and as others have mentioned, the mother will blame herself for the rest of her life. Move along.

On top of that — is this really the type of sources we should be posting from? The stories I managed to see on the front page, before the gagging became too much, seemed to be equal parts Megan & Harry, Trump, and Caitlyn Jenner. Pure tabloid trash. They don’t deserve the traffic.

For the first time in quite a while, I’m sorely missing the ability to downvote.

Edit: Ahhh, here we go 🙄

I’m guessing we know where you work now, eh mate? Some lovely astroturfing 🤢👍

I’m sure he just wanted to test all (all) the food first to make sure his population doesn’t get poisoned; very commendable, really. Not everyone is a villain, you know!

Now now, let’s not bring appearance into this; I’m sure the genocidal maniac can’t be blamed for how he looks, and you might hurt his feelings.

I just re-watched all the first 14 Bond movies, and there are apparently satellites that can track all the subs, so we’re good 😊👌 Also, you can just reprogram the missiles to blow up the other subs — just steal the launch codes, easy peasy 👍 Check mate, Kim! 💥🚀

Side note: many (or, indeed, most) of the films did not age well 😣 I’m not proud of how little of the misogyny, borderline rape-y, no-consent, belittling of women stuff I failed to notice as a kid (patents’ fault) and adolescent (my fault); it starts to get a bit better around the end of the Moore era, and I’m now getting ready for the Dalton era. It will be interesting to see the newer films with this fresh context of the old ones, and I’ve never seen the two newest ones, which I think were supposed to address all of these issues.

Secondary side note: so far, the best ones (IMHO, YMMV) have been For Your Eyes Only, Octopussy, A View To A Kill.

After finishing The Last Of Us 2, I spent a lot of energy being sad about all the people in my life who don’t play games. They’ll never have that experience, and I found that somewhat upsetting. There’s no other way to live that story, and I wish l could give it to just everyone, and have them actually play and enjoy it.

Googling this was 50/50 for me. It couldn’t possibly exist, but on the other hand, it’s just too perfectly insane. I was very surprised at the result.

I’m guessing they’re Obama.

Guess I’ll have to stop watching golf. Or at least not start.

I’m guessing it’s not easy to say no to those kinds of sums. I can’t imagine having to make that decision. Luckily, I’ll never have to 👌

Yes, but something something God blah blah 🙄

Are these Israeli-Americans, or evangelicals who love Israel because they want it to burn so they can have The Second Coming?

I’m probably misremembering the thing about that Russian state news thing joining them, and they booted that one again this year. My bad.
