My 12 year daughter REALLY doesn't care about the local band scene. Avoiding mass media culture is alright for weirdos and nerds like us that can get in line physically for NIN tickets because of feelings and nostalgia, but that is not

It's really weird you go straight to "dictatorship" when talking about a regular security feature of most websites. Most people don't use VPNs, nevermind spoofed fingerprints, etc. The problem is on your side.

Exactly. If I was one of those people, no one but my 30-50 most trusted friends and family members would be allowed 100 yards near me. I would be afraid for my safety 24/7, for my children's... For my private life (I would never t

This photo could be easily faked. I don't believe the Earth is flat, but I also don't think everybody on the planet should be 100% on one side of a discussion. Even if flat-earthers are kinda dumb, I think it's worse to force

Thank you. This really bothers me. The literal last phrase in the Hacker News Guidelines is: > Please don't post comments saying that HN is turning into Reddit. It's a semi-noob illusion, as old as the hills. [1] Which is cute

An editor's role is not fixing typos and grammar (that's the proofreader's job). The editor helps you order your thoughts, pointing out inconsistencies, redundancies, or general lapses in reasoning. When I talk about "un

I appreciate the sentiment, and good for him. However, from an audience perspective, why choose to watch a guy filming himself eating cereal with a shaky phone camera when you could watch The Sopranos? (or the latest MrBeast extravaganza, t

For a moment there, I also thought it was in bad taste to compare shitty software to domestic violence. Then you came in with this and reminded me that maybe I was being too fragile and should get over my self-righteousness. Do you also hav

This is a very specific fear for a very niche sector of the userbase. sudo is the only case of a silent password I've encountered in my life and it's really uncomfortable.

Oh I think all of those guys have fair points. I was trying to illustrate how you could make a hero or a villain out of anybody if you cherry pick incidents, decisions or opinions. Just like the parent comment was trying to do with Chuck No

In this context, a "real man" is probably someone who conforms to the traditional role of a male (physically strong, emotionally restrained, a provider and protector of women, children, and weaker men, etc.). Of course, "real

Sure, a woman can be a role model for a man. Just out of curiosity, could you think of one man that could also be a role model for men and women?

I meant male role models for men (I'm sure you could find one). Not every man aspires to be the mother of 7 and go to the gym. (Because: remember that gyms are classist by design. [1]) But maybe lets talk about how Amy got called out b

I saw this coming, that's why I made this point, which you ignored: > Could you give a couple of examples of what you would consider > "good role models for well-adapted men" ? I'm actually curious.

Just out of curiosity, could you (or anyone else) give a couple of examples of what you would consider "great role models for real men"? Or "good role models for well-adapted men", if you'd rather use less inflammat

"We can trust you now" has quotations marks in the title. That means a verbatim quote from a source. Sure, messaging should be clear, but we must expect basic reading comprehension and jornalistic literacy from people that partici

Why would you say that? The article was basically a hit piece on the guy. "We can trust you" was a quote from an associate, as you surely remember from when you read the whole article.

He's right. Moral self-righteousness aside, Hollywood was a window for many of us in "developing countries" to a better world. Yeah, it was an idealized version of reality, but that's how many of us discovered science, a

When compared to the nascent asian cultural imperialism, I'd rather have american media, to be honest. Over here in the global south, Hollywood was a pretty good influence compared with what I see around the anime/Kpop crew. There
