So funny. An article on how piracy doesn't hurt sales followed by so many posts by people boasting how they would never pay for anything because they can download it for free.

It's a really polite crew most of the time. We go one at a time. One from the left and then one from the right. Normally the etiquette is that you get 30 seconds. If you go much longer you get trash talked from the side and you have to

You were not lied to. The CDC and WHO originally said that masks were not needed. That advice was wrong. That doesn't mean the people giving that advice were being malicious. They just got it badly wrong and eventually they corrected i
