He did it for attention. You giving him attention doesn’t help in any way.

I love the snark here. I work at a hosting company and the only customers who have issues with crawlers are those who have stupidly slow webpages. It’s hard to have any sympathy for them.

That doesn’t work for small issues like this, as well as you know. And the proof is that wildly unpopular things like this keep occurring. We don’t live in a democracy if it’s not like in Switzerland with their direct democracy where we can

What percentage of citizens do you think support the blocking of websites for reasons of copyright? We have as much choice in the matter as we would have under Franco.

But the government is much more of an enemy to me than my ISP, not to mention I can switch ISPs but I can’t switch governments.

This mindset is what perpetually allows the violent to abuse the weak. What a violent person needs is a boot in the mouth. Or as many as necessary until he understands that’s not the way to behave. We are talking about people who generally

Well--well look. I already told you: I deal with the god damn customers so the engineers don't have to. I have people skills; I am good at dealing with people. Can't you understand that? What the hell is wrong with you people?

If you want to risk hurting someone whilst restraining him… Otherwise, it’s not worth it. What equipment are you talking about anyway, the nightstick? In my language it is formally called the “defensa”, implying that it can’t be used to att

Don't know how it is in the states but in most places in Europe using violence against a violent person is likely to end up very badly for you, even if you are a guard and have the necessary permits and training. You are not going to r

What it requires is authoritarianism. It requires to do things that are wildly unpopular. I'm happy every time wildly unpopular things fail. It does not matter to me that those who want to implement authoritarianism think they are

The article is bs as I supposed it would be. If you share a conversation and google is made aware of the link it will appear in its index… as expected.

Cultivated seems misleading since it sounds like it’s a real fish from a fish farm.

Those handling the financial system have an interest in it running right whilst those handling the election system have an interest in tampering with the results.

I can go with your gut feeling or I can go with what I’ve seen in the market whilst looking for a woman to take care of elders in my family. Or with what I’ve heard from people in the hospitality and agriculture sectors. It’s not that nativ

There are far too few people working in elderly care because it pays peanuts. It pays peanuts because immigration increases the supply of workers. With a limited supply of workers and increased demand as more people get older, those jobs wo
