Sometimes things really are that simple though. Why can you (most of the time) leave your bike outside a store you stop at in Japan but not in America? Because it isn't part of Japanese culture to take what doesn't belong to you,

Sorry for not making sure to use the full term. My point was though, "illegal" is not a bad word and it's used officially.

by siphon22 7y ago
Legal is an acceptable term right? No one bats an eye at "Legal Resident". What's the opposite of legal? Illegal. As far as I think, these are just states and do not imply anything about the person in question. They are terms

Thanks, I wasn't too conscious about those other examples of unauthorized presence. Makes sense now that I think of it.

That's you projecting what I mean by "illegals", while I'm just using official terminology. I do not have an opinion one way or the other regarding the app's existence and motives.

As a legal resident, that's basically why I feel pretty confident in my green card. What the fuck kind of priorities does ICE have if they are messing with people who actually have documents and are here rightfully while there's a

It's essentially no different, but some would argue the weight of the 'crime' is different. I haven't given my personal opinion on this btw, I was just saying who the likely target audience is, as legal residents aren&#x

Judging the app/website itself, it annoys me. You can see the first iMessage bubble for a few seconds but then it gets pushed out of view by the second message and the top part gets cut off. Based on the website, it looks like they are

His post seemed genuine and like an appropriate thing to ask to me. No need to get the pitchforks yet, you can try talking to the person and clearing any misunderstandings first.

Unless I'm misunderstanding, the app appears to be for helping illegal immigrants evade being captured.

Damn, if only I knew I just had to have 50k laying around to invest in stocks to not be poor...you figured it out! We have to let the world know about this.

Needs a "/s". I'm still not even sure because that sounds like a legit viewpoint people on HN may have.

What's the Linux hack/solution to changing the battery charging thresholds? I really enjoy that feature with this W10/Laptop right now. Battery has been at 75% for the last two days, so it's not charging and just being s

Funny coincidence, I recently debloated my W10 with a script as well. I saw the one in the OP during my search, but ultimately didn't go with it as it didn't look legit to me compared to another one that I found mentioned in a art

Without any mention of the person or specific repos, I for a split second thought that this article was about Github shutting down and all repos needing a new home lol

Well that's uncalled for. I regularly lift weights and consider myself fairly healthy. I have an eating disorder if I skip a meal in a scenario where the only option is junk food? To be fair, I skip the meal until I get a chance to eat

I think anyone who overindulges in soda and other junk are junkies. The people who buy them off SNAP are no better. I think it may be a lack of education or cultural or even psychological thing. If the SNAP isn't providing enough, and

What makes you think they'll buy more healthier food instead of just getting even more junk? That's like giving more heroin to a junky in hopes that'll he'll shoot up less.

It might fall in line with "Better the devil you know than the one you don't." Like while some Japanese people may dislike Korean people, they may at the same time think that Korean immigrants will assimilate far better than

At least those people are consistent. There are plenty who would be okay with people coming from other countries if they looked like them.

In my modern experience though, no one would dare put up such a wanted ad, while one asking for a person of color, minority, or some form of diversity token would be perfectly okay. So I guess it is edgy after all to say "White CEO Wan

Reminds me a lot of hacking servers in cs 1.6 back in the day. I was a regular in some of them. People in these servers would pretty much brag about how much better their hack was compared to everyone else's(often also claiming that th
