  • Internet can connect people, so that Flat Earthers can expose Australians being all actors, because Australia doesn't exist!

  • That's crazy talking! We have other solutions: banning polls, cheating polls, outright faking polls. There is no alternative here!

    Besides, at this stage, if he was to ask what he could do to make things right, he would get a range of answers from "resign" to "kill yourself in the most painful way you can".

  • Microphones in the hotel? No need, you carry them in your pocket almost 24/24. There are some in your car. Even if you don't have a smartphone, a nice combo of PervGlasses and surrounding phones will be sufficient to get what you're venting about, so that law enforcement can protect the society from your darkest jokes…

    And by the time this is implemented, piece by piece, the very same people claiming it's acceptable/a good thing will totally agree with the processing: you should mind what you say around people, or alone.

  • Joke aside, every time there were actual review of laws pushed to protect [insert whatever potential victim] from [insert whatever potential threat] at the cost of losing a tiiiiiny bit of freedom, the conclusion is always dire for the said bill/law/mechanism. All countries.

    It is never ever about protecting the people.

  • You can joke about everything, but not with everyone.

    She was venting to her boyfriend. It was never meant to become public, or shared in a group, or anyone but her boyfriend, who, lets be bold and assume, knows her enough to assess if she's really joking or she's having a nervous breakdown.

    So yes: the one and only issue here, is a Snapchat conversation is never a 1:1 conversation, nor are Instagram, Whatsapp, FB Messenger and what not discussions.

    Putting the blame on her is normalizing global surveillance.

  • Tells you a lot about success and merit. He has absolutely no fucking clue what's going to be successful and what won't. He was just super lucky with Facebook.

    The reason he's a billionaire is because the system is totally fucked up. He's a bug, not a feature.

  • The EU is a complex organization with different power poles and a variety of different interests. Add to that members of parliament do not always understand everything they vote for. And yes: you get bad things, nonsensical rules, but also good things.

    Overall, I would say it's positive, but when it's bad it can be brutal.

    Edit: I forgot to mention lobbying! Brussels is full of lobbyists!

  • Yeah, I suspect Trump will cave to the manosphere fans and block their extraditon.

    Remember he doesn't understand allied countries. They're all either "very bad" or vassal states. Do you think he would have any respect for UK's extradition demand? Pleasing a few idiots voicing up on Fox News or Newsmax will come first.

    Plus he has a personal intererst in minimizing sex crimes involving kids...

  • You have to admit: how to change a dead light bulb:

    20y ago:

    • Open the hood
    • Remove the old lighbulb
    • Install the new lightbulb
    • Close the hoodTotal: 5mins

    10y ago:

    • Open the hood
    • Remove the part obstructing access to the lightbulb (4 substeps, 15mins)
    • Unmount the lightbulb block (4 more screws in tight space, none of your screwdriver fits in the space)
    • Take apart the lightbulb block (3 more screws)
    • Replace the dead bulb
    • Remount everythingTotal: 1h

    Almost now:

    • Press "Open hood" on the embedded computer, enter the mechanics access password that you got from the car maker after arguing on the phone for 1h
    • Remove the protective panel above the hood compartment, that's just a piece of plastic with proprietary screws incompatible with everything in your toolbox.
    • 50 more substeps, instructions include "recommended crane to lift the engine out of the car: [specific model only sold in Guanzhou, China]", 2 persons operation 2h passed
    • Replace the whole "lightning apparatus" that's a single piece including all front lights, left and right, as it's all solded and cannot be taken apart without destroying everything. 300$ on Aliexpress with no warranty, 1000$ for the OEM model.Total: 8h.
  • How it starts: "Oh, a meme about repairing stuff! I like to repair stuff myself, let's check the comments."

    How it keeps going: "Ok, I don't really know shit about cars repair, I only changed a light bulb from time to time, and once I replaced a 12V battery. Let's write a comment about what I know: installing Linux! ""This is like installing Arch with on an exotic machine..."" "

    How it ends: turns out most of us match above description and answer the Linux comment...

  • I was just wondering how much should be paid to whom for the policy to be reversed, so that datacenter would be the last thing to be shut down.

  • Nah, keep in kind they're going to make up the rules as they go. They're dramatically incompetent, but this should be easy to restrict to Trump only, even for idiots of their kind.

  • Of course he can build that warp core, but what do you want him to do with the ductape?

  • It's quite a miracle they managed to write so many words without accusing him of being antisemite.

  • If it was only 200M€, that would be nice. They're more likely to put billions in this.

  • 1.CEOs are not "just following orders". They propose a strategy and some goals that the board decides are achievable and acceptable. The CEOs define the strategy. That's their job. They're fully responsible for what the company does and doesn't do.

    2.If Gestapo had been dying one after the other at an alarming rate, chances are not much less people would have taken the job.

  • Yeah but they would have to give up ruling the world and ruining your life for fun. And by spending a peanut negligible amount of money, they can still shield themselves from consequences? What would you do if you too were an overrich narcissist sadistic sociopath??

  • You mean they are just following orders?
