That's certainly possible, but at this point we are talking shit just about as bad as what the craziest nuts are accusing Hilary of. Shit people would keep digging in forever. And fwiw, Dotcom's statements says he is willing to pr

No doubt he has a huge axe to grind against Democrats but I'm finding it intriguing because I can't quite see how making such story up could help him this time. If he lies, this will piss off the US government, Democrats, Trump fa

Kim's website is one HTML blob and requires manual scrolling. Disclaimer: I'm aware of Seth Rich death conspiracy theories and this release obviously falls short of proving them.

Yes, your parent misrepresented the quote which indeed was about "free exchange of ideas facilitating Trump", but then the co-founder misrepresented what twitter actually is and this is what parent wanted to point out, I think. As

Where I live "I'll kill you" is a common way to express dissatisfaction with someone's actions and while explicit, it's neither serious nor credible. I'm sure facebook is full of such posts.

Could it be that there used to be an oversupply of low skilled VB programmers and that nowadays JS is the new VB? I remember hacking simple VB apps as a self-taught teenager and I could probably get a job in it if there was an opportunity a

Yes, some silly turtle, scratch and stuff like that. I can tell you that as a 10 yo I wanted to build "real" software with real tools (even if it turned out shit by actual real software standards), not toys. You would certainly fi

The problem is that most of these websites offer no "fuck off" option besides GTFO and usually "agree" is the only button provided and they are probably tracking you from the get go before you even click anything. If you

Why, I enjoyed this article, particularly the part about rape and the end: I seriously doubt that Donald Trump is really a fan of Ayn Rand. Her books may be juvenile and shallow, but they’re way too deep for him. Make your own conclusions
