Of all the things to call someone who employs coarse slang/diminutives for ethnic and cultural groups, racist wouldn't even make top 5 in most people's books.
Also: fuck the Cardis, they deserved their fate.
You can takle the mods out of R_ddit...
Canadian journalist Luke LeBrun unfairly banned from r/Canada for asking why his article was removed
The corporate media are very clear on this. Citizens won't be doing any primary reporting, nor will they be doing curation of reportage. Weird, huh?
See the example of Level1News becoming Level1Show, etc.
but if you have a problem with the wages, just tip more.
enabler | noun
en·abler i-ˈnā-b(ə-)lər
: one that enables another to achieve an end especially : one who enables another to persist in self-destructive behavior (such as substance abuse) by providing excuses or by making it possible to avoid the consequences of such behavior
The public internet is for P2P exchange as well, no matter how much gov/corp tries to stymie it. I2P has its merits, but it would be sad to see it take off purely because people ceded the former territory for an obscure network layer.
I cannot wait for mockery and satire to make a resurgence in the media throughout the 2030s and 40s, as a reaction to the American Left's insane bent for language policing. It's going to be wonderful.
No one needs pronouns on the web. If I wanted to quote or refer to the OP, I would simply use the proper noun 'qaz' - qaz says, qaz wrote. It reminds me of an absurd Microsoft keynote presentation a couple of years ago where each host not only provided their names as well as a description of their clothing for vision-impaired viewers (useful information), but tacked on their pronouns too. 'Over to you, Lisa!' 'Thanks Bob'.
I have no sympathy for instances like Blahaj in this particular aspect of moderation. This is a social and political millstone you fitted around your own necks.
https://youtube.com/watch?v=QFspemhHmsw A Critique of Star Trek Discovery — Part 1 #RIPStarTrek
This whole essay is worth listening to, but 15:46-30:33 in particular gets at the heart of a big reason why classic Trek rocks and why nuTrek is shit.
I don't use tablets. Powder is cheaper. You only need about 11g of detergent for lightly soiled loads. Tablets are typically 20g. To get a visual reference for the volume 11g of powder represents, I weighed it out in a cup then tipped the cup into a tablespoon.
The safest way to log into an account in a non-trusted device
Wouldn't the better policy be to practice device compartmentalization? I have the 'pleasure' of interacting with a non-trusted device about 40 hours a week, and I can tell you the number of personal logins I access from that compartment is none
People (even the technically incllined) place way too much value on cross-platform sync.
I agrree they would. Don't read it literally
sharing - this one is key. I use a shared shopping list and we both need to add and edit.

A Boeing suicide...
A crass nickname for the CIA Prize for Journalism if I ever saw one.
The easiest tool is MakeMKV. But you'll often encounter opportunities for efficiency (eg stereo DTSHD to FLAC) as well as requirements to convert* for hardware compatibility. That's where ffmpeg and MKVToolNix are good secondary tools for customizing the remux contents.
*Not transcoding. Rather, lossless formet 1 -> lossless format 2.
It's an imageboard meme. Slang for over-the-top complaining.
Or put another way, it's enabling advertisers to better camouflage themselves as humans. (Because we just cannot have people communicating directly to each other on the web...)
Suppression of the suspect's voice really is misinformation on the part of states and corporations, albeit for different reasons.
Relevant laws and policies are employed in order to deliberately withhold public information about motive. They don't want people placing these incidents this within a broader context. There couldn't possibly be a belief set behind the behaviour; the perp didn't have any ideas about how the world works, or who and what caused their circumstances. Oh no.
Why did the shooter go out and shoot people is a completely legitimate question. More than that, it will never be an illegitimate question, no matter how much autistic screeching authorities do. Learning is never wrong, and that includes the publishing and reading of a criminal suspect's thoughts.
No, Mr Mangione! A Fortune 500 executive is a living, enterprising creature!
I don't care....heheheh

Why would Greece, like any other net importer of IP, care about this any more than it historically has? Could the sudden change in focus be at the behest of a foreign country? Really jogs the noggin
A word of warning. Macquarie I fear is this close to forcing use of its app. You can still do OG netbanking via the browser like an adult for now, but their vision of the world is made very clear. I don't know whether it's regulation preventing them from pulling the trigger or just sane voices in their IT department.
I've been meaning to investigate credit union options for a long time now, because listed banks in general are becoming increasingly invasive and restrictive in terms of how you get to access your own livelihood.
Competitor lobbying doesn't even enter into it, I'd guess.
The US State Department won't tolerate Americans being exposed to media that doesn't adhere to its view of the world. What large groups of Americans think - and vitally, the bounds of what they are permitted to think - is a national security 'issue' in the eyes of the state. No such problem exists with Facebook, cable news, the establishment newspapers, etc. As Chomsky teaches, propaganda is equally about what isn't in the news.
