  • Reddit banned Paul McCartney over phone-free concert photos post in their subreddit

  • I don't have a vendetta. I'm entirely ignorant of the context you're describing. I got blanket banned from a series of communities by aforementioned user for (presumably) downvoting. I'm not really very interested in continuing this.

  • why are you even going on about it a month later to shit talk the user?

    Why did I mention something relevant to the conversation? That's your question?

  • It's just a set photo. It never happened on film.

  • What's a TV series that you really, really liked and would enthusiastically recommend?

  • You're not alone. I went in expecting it to be high-quality based on comments similar to the above, then adjusted my sights for trite but entertaining, then realized I was only even entertained when John Noble was on screen (and to be fair, his performance was very fun).

    I do recognize that it broke new ground and wasn't as cliché when it originally aired, but it's hard to imagine that it wasn't just as hammy.

  • It's also Microsoft's get-out-of-jail-free card here; someone else ripped the ebooks, processed them, and uploaded them under a CC0 Public Domain license. "How were we meant to know the release wasn't authorized?"

    Legos

    Jump

  • I think the difference is the perception of whether a piece of Lego is "a Lego"; in Europe, that's typically not the way the word is used.

    I started writing a rebuttal that amused me until I noticed I'd misread your comment, and I don't want to delete it, so despite being irrelevant to what you've said...

    How many super glues do you use for a repair? Do you play on an astroturfs field? Are people carrying maces in their bag for self-defence? Do you eat Jell-Os and burn kerosenes?

  • The pun works verbally if a werewolf (literally "man-wolf") is understood to be a hybrid of man and wolf during the full moon. Instead of changing form into a werewolf, he's changed form into a warehouse.

    Written down, if he turned into a half-man, half-house he'd be a werehouse, and if he turned into a half-man, half-warehouse he'd be a werewarehouse.

  • Small amounts of dirt are going to harbor bacteria, and a soak and rinse (and a light scrub, if it's produce that can be scrubbed) will actually make a notable difference to the pathogen count. It's not magic, but it's good practice.

  • There's a non-obvious freeze function in the Task Manager - for as long as you hold the Ctrl key, it'll stop updating the list. I have no idea why this functionality is hidden, but I guess Dave Plummer had some unusual ideas about UX.

  • For sure, but when he says the right things to disillusion a fraction of the supporter base, let's recognize that even if he is a part of the problem.
