I mean, it is a company that employs people that gives away its product for free. Aside from Nitro, would you like them to monetize your personal info and sell it to 3rd parties?

The unemployment is low because people have a gun to their head. Inflation is falling, but it’s not zero, therefore everything is still getting more expensive.

eCoNoMiCs.

To quote the blurb in the post that apparently no one read:

The data showed an increase in hospital admissions of children due to diseases including bacterial infection, RSV, influenza and common cold viruses since October.

Leading scientists said the situation warranted close monitoring, but were not convinced the spike signalled the start of a new global outbreak.

Try to put my PC to sleep? 1 of 3 things happens: it either goes to sleep normally, it goes to sleep but wakes itself up 2 seconds later, or the PC actually just shuts down. Try to shut down my PC? 1 of 2 things happens: it either shuts down, or it restarts.

I think the problem is Windows.

Who does CNN think their target demographic is with that headline? If you’re reading CNN, you remember Reading Rainbow, and if you remember Reading Rainbow, YOU PUT SOME RESPEK ON LEVAR BURTON’S GATDAMN NAME.

Crazy. It’s like the guy who grew up with hyper wealthy parents, who benefited from the South African apartheid regime, went to spoiled rich boy schools, and has generally acted like a moronic 12 year old his entire life, might be a racist buffoon.

Because solving homelessness is counter-productive to running a capitalist society.

You get to an age where new shit doesn’t seem like a good way to spend time. TF anyone wants to watch a stupid tiktok hand dance video for is beyond me. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have some DVDs to alphabetize. I’m going to be watching some sick special features for Blade Runner while idiots wave their hands around to chipmunkified “oh no” song for internet points. I don’t know who’s winning.

I honestly haven’t seen any. Every single person other than pro-Apartheid pro-Israel types seems to be making a very clear distinction between Palestinian civilians and Hamas.

Not unless society doesn’t collapse by 2040

Genocide of our indigenous population mostly. The worst of it ended in 1996 when the last residential school closed. Basically, the Catholic Church under the authorization of the Canadian Federal Government in the 1800s and onwards, abducted children from indigenous communities, took them to~~ jail ~~boarding schools where they attempted to assimilate them into Eurocentric culture by punishing them for speaking their own language and practicing their own culture. Beatings, sexual abuse, and neglect were commonplace, with many children dying of illness, exposure, or violence. Many children survived the schools and are still alive today to tell us about it. There are also mass graves at several of these schools where children’s corpses were dumped and hidden from public view, until ground x-ray technology came around and we found the graves.

You can tell who the introverts and who the extroverts were during the pandemic. For those that got to stay at home:

Extroverts: “My mental health is crumbling! I’ll never be the same after this. Literally the worst thing that’s ever happened to me!”

Introverts: “I just beat a handful of games in my backlog, read 4 books, started learning how to make Chinese food at home, and I just started learning Spanish on Duolingo. I’ll never be the same after this!”

I think you’re underestimating just how much Islamophobia exists in the world. People don’t mind if brown people get killed.

Interesting to me, that Israel, the country that is most well known for cyber security and big tough guys who are good at martial arts, can’t find random Hamas insurgents and take them out with precision strikes. No, it has to be artillery.

No one is defending Hamas shooting rockets at Israel, who has an Iron Dome to protect them anyway.

Tik Tokers pretend like the culture of building ethical parasocial relationships with your fanbase hasn’t already been established years ago by Youtuber and Twitch streamers. You never send your fans to harass others. That’s literally how you get banned from the platform.

That’s literally why LLC’s exist in the first place. The company exists as a separate legal entity from the people that operate it. The company can be fined. The people, unless proven that they acted out of gross negligence or malice, usually don’t get charged with crimes.

Never heard of Kliban. Noticed his work looks a lot like The Far Side. Looked up on wikipedia, Gary Larson’s main inspiration is Kliban. Crazy.
