Yeah no. I remember when the US "accidentally" bombed Al Jazeera. Think it was Afghanistan but it could be Iraq. Whatever the point stands: Everyone loves free speech until somebody says something they don't like. Basic human

Actually they tried. WhatsApp fucked them up. Literally in a span of months SMS usage went the way of the dinosaur.

I'm subscribed to Netflix through my smart TV app. I'm sure Netflix pays money to LG for that button on the remote.

I was at a museum looking at a group portrait of 18th century rich people in uniform and it hit me. Not a single US billionaire will ever have to lead a regiment in war.

I take it for granted but living in a continent without brown outs is nice indeed.

It's because of immigrants. Look on a map. Morocco is promising to stop African migrants and take back their own. Has nothing to do with America.

Governments are powerless because the rich are becoming increasingly adept at not paying taxes. Same goes for companies. I suppose it's not really new. Many English kings had to beg their robber barons for money.

If you follow that ridiculous thinking you can justify anything on the bases off "someone in India has it worse". How about we reject poverty and feel a deep sense of shame that such a thing exists in a G20 country?

Yeah it is not and never will be Linux or whatever HN poster child that will kill MS. It is smartphones. Which MS was aware of but we all know what happened with Windows Phone.

When I read that 60% of people are overweight it inspired me to get fit and become part of the elite minority. Every McDonald's fuels my willpower.

No idea why you are downvoted. During the cold war the constant question on everyone's mind was: is the US willing to sacrifice NYC for Berlin? Americans talk big but isolationism has always been a powerful force. And not every preside

If America bails on Ukraine, as some politicians want, it will be a signal for everyone on this planet: you're on your own good luck. At that point you have two options: conciliate with the baddies or arm yourself. Including nuclear we

Keep saying it. Whatever China does is ridiculed and laughed at only to be quietly adapted into Western democracies 10 years later. But we get to vote on it so that makes it better I guess?

"Know thyself". People need to admit to themselves that they are not smart financial gurus. Not everyone has that level of introspection.

The average "investor" is a gambling addict or financially desperate Reddit cryptocurrency poster. They don't care beyond NUMBER GO UP and I am certain Justin Sun knows that too.

They made a rule in the Netherlands that stops supermarkets for throwing discounts on alcohol. I'm always amazed just how cheap beer is, even cheaper than some mineral water brands.

I've seen that argument for 20 years and I always respond with "give New York back to the native Americans".

Some repackers actually pay for dedicated seedboxes. There's Dodi for instance who by his own account pays $100 per month keeping games up. I pay for a seedbox myself.

Any code can be brute forced if you have a century to spare and enough computing to throw at it. Which is why my bank card is blocked after three failed attempts.

Less bullshit jobs. Society needs doctors, nurses, plumbers and teachers not tech bros.

I'm white and if shit hits the fan can scrape enough money together to hire a decent lawyer. People don't "imagine if that was you" because they KNOW it would not happen to them.

I'm old enough to remember Microsoft points for Xbox live. People want to pay in their local currency with their local bank account not jump through shady hoops. I want to play videogames not chat with little girls in the Philippines.
