Can't happen soon enough. The days where forums were the defacto place for discussion were just better. The communities would self-police and alternative opinions weren't suppressed nearly as easily. Reddit is a meme slideshow, no

Those antique pool tables that came with the place could be restored and sold for several thousand dollars. What a steal.

I don't believe it is different. Rather our trust in government has degraded in the last 100 years.

I'm not sure I've ever heard of anyone having this problem aside from that large server update a year or two ago and their "desktop experience". Can anyone tell me more?

You just tried to mathematically determine "coolness" of a party. That's hilarious. I'm sure you've been to a few yourself ;)

I've never particularly wanted to travel to China. After seeing what the CCP has done, I have no desire to ever travel to China. However, after seeing the way the Hong Kong citizens behaved and placed such a high value on freedom of sp

Its very telling of our inability to attribute positives to someone who holds an alternative political ideology. We need to be able to compliment one another somehow if we are ever to bridge the ever increasing gap between political parties

ICE detention centers are closer to prisons than they are to nazi death camps. Calling ICE detention centers concentration camps is just pushing the "Trump is a nazi/Orange man bad" concept to its illogical conclusion.

Germany implemented laws that forbid holocaust denial for example. The US has no such laws pertaining to its groups.

I like that he brings up a conversation we as a country need to be having but his ideas are hairbrained or idealist at best.

People so often forget the shooting of a sitting congressmen at a baseball game just a short time ago. It didn't last as long in the news cycle as the white nationalist that ran over a woman in Charlottesville did. Granted, nobody died

I'm sure you could but this truck seems marketed towards people who haven't owned a truck. "Adventure Vehicle" sounds like its built for those soccer moms who would have otherwise gotten a Ford "Explorer". At b

The vast majority of those living outside of major cities are those growing food or working in key resource industries like lumber and mining. Those that are not in those industries are in supporting industries like grocery stores and barbe

560km in -20F weather? Not sure about that. Also that Honda wouldn't take a snow drift without falling apart. People who live in cities take their public services fore granted. If you're out in the country you NEED a truck and alm

Trusting in a private company that must react to market changes is different than trusting in a government that doesn't listen to you anyway.

Subs also add a lot of the plot sometimes. Certain quiet sounds you wouldn't otherwise hear are mentioned in the subs that can set a scene, foreshadow, or explain motives.

Why can't China be for the Chinese? Sure don't kill anybody. Don't hate them. But why can't German's want their German ancestry to be Germany? The USA is a unique case in the world and should be exception, not the r

The reason the US banned them from traveling was from bombing their countries for years. Nothing to do with their faith.

Everything you said is on point. You won't find many upvotes in this echo chamber. The majority of HN viewers are on the west coast of the US.

There are a lot more socialists in the US than there were 5 years ago. Some attribute that to Bernie Sanders and his run for the dem's nomination.

Software developers are so "in demand" right now, it seems like it would be better to not become a union worker and instead just shop around. It's really a sellers market for talent.

Software developers are a far cry from auto workers or even teachers. Its interesting to see the differences between early SV startups 10-15 years ago that would brag about the benefits of working for them and now. Things like ping pong tab

I don't think its fair to underestimate China. Breaking up Amazon or Google would benefit China more than the west. Sure Amazon and Google are possibly too large, but their Chinese counter parts are equally as large and direct competit

I'll get down voted for this one but here goes.... One thing I've noticed of the social justice crowd is the ever shifting goal posts. Anyone to the right of you is an enabler of malicious ideas. Hardly ever are people criticized
