There is nothing to this. Please do not spread the mindless anecdote about Fauci. In the initial DAYS of the pandemic, it's true that he said that he didn't see there was a reason for normal citizens to be wearing PPE and masks, a

1) it doesn't work 2) it takes valuable time, supplies, and resources away from actual medical care 3) it allows wackos from Fox News to dictate medical care, instead of, you know, doctors, or science, which is an awful precedent to se

You have nothing—zero—to back up your argument. So please. Don't ask us to trust you when you give us no reason to. Instead, you could just support your argument.

Actually, we already know he's doing more than "farming fake internet points", don't we? Because the story has now been posted here. Exacerbating, btw.

How many times are you going to say "exploding" to describe something that didn't explode? You're clearly cognizant of the fact you are lying, so why keep doing it? Why not just describe what happened accurately? Is it a

Except the Constitution doesn't say so. Not anymore. Not with the current 6 right-wing votes on SCOTUS. From here on out, the Constitution says whatever Judicial Watch and the Federalist Society say that it says.

Sorry, you might want to look up what "murder" means. The real definition in use in our society, that is, not the one you wish were true.

Professional classical baritone here. I've had the pleasure of singing Schubert's songs for...around 37 years now. (Oh dear, I'm getting rather old.) Other than Bach's cantatas, this is probably my favorite body of work

Having a "right to complain" doesn't mean that it's accurate, fair, just, or a good idea to complain.

Absolutely absurd. Just get a monitor that doesn't have a hostile, stupid aspect ratio. Then rotate it 90° if that's what works best for you. Done.

Why was the headline on this article re-written in an obviously biased way? Wasn't the original, factual headline good enough?

Isn't it just a tad bit disingenuous to say "those same bitcoins", when, as we all know, their value has appreciated by around five orders of magnitude since then?

We don't punish out of some fantasy that it will "solve" crime. At least I hope we don't. I'm under no such delusions, I promise. We punish in order to hopefully deter, in at least some cases, though. And sometimes,

Nobody said that. I certainly didn't mean or say that. We do need the right Americans in prison, though. I can easily find tens of thousands of folks who need to be released. These fuckers, though, need to be incarcerated. Otherwise,

Are you being misleading on purpose, or was it just an accident? The first phone to run on Android debuted from Google in 2008 and was universally recognized as a hilariously obvious copy of iOS and everything about the iPhone. The early in

The blame is pervasive through the entire comment. If you can't see that, you need to reboot, install updates, and look again. It was a very brief comment and its ENTIRE CONTENT was a criticism of the victim's conduct and a sugges

You absolutely do have things compatible with iOS. You probably just don't know it yet. So the advice, is, try iOS. Stop rewarding Google for stealing iOS, creating Android, and then loosing this kind of bullshit on the world.

And people wonder why Apple wants to try to keep control of iPhone repair processes. This is one of the big reasons why.

No. We don't need to "educate" people on how to magically dodge evil behavior. We need to punish the evil behavior. Like you said in your last sentence.

No. We do NOT need fucking removable storage to fix this. What we need, to fix this, is to enforce felony charges against the kind of fuckers who do this, and put them in prison for 20 years, and stop victim-blaming, and stop the insane med

What sort of topics? Are we talking about the old tired debate over rightful moderation and editing of offensively-fawning articles about Nazis? Which articles have been deleted? Any examples?
