Yikes. Sounds shitty for EU residents in the long term. Wouldn’t it be better to let the bank fail, ie learn from 2008 that bailing out encourages the bad behavior?

Really? It seems to work for me for all but the most intricate searches. Recently I’ve noticed the first page of google results is getting a bit useless from all the SEO pushing commercial results to the top—ideally I’d want to filter out b

1) the visuals were excellent, and still hold up against contemporary games. 2) the narrative was high quality. 3) the puzzles were very satisfying to solve. Aside from that, it’s just taste, my friend.

Sure. And it’s my choice to block them. Brave actually offers a way to pay for content, if I understand it correctly.

I agree on all points. The role money plays is avoiding discussion of the roots of homelessness, which affects the general population as well—social, cultural, economic, and medical discussions. An easy way to see this is the obsession over

The mind is agile and can reconcile many things—for one, all evidence is falsifiable by a god. I’m more curious what people psychologically get out of taking the bible literally. It wouldn’t make me happy.

Blocking the top 100 most porn sites would do nothing because it’s incredibly cheap to register a new domain name. My point was more that it’s silly to even consider it as a possibility. And just because this was a business decision doesn’t
