I used to pay for netflix in the US and access it with a VPN when I was living in China (a country where most content is only available through pirating). I did this both for convenience and because I wanted to pay for the content I was con

I use colemak and I love it but I do agree with him about the he bigram in colemak. At this point though, I don't think his improvements would make it worthwhile for me to learn Workman. Switching to Colemak was very good for me but it

Not necessarily, conservatives tend to be the most hysterical when it come to Gay rights or a lot of important matter. It's not because they want the status quo to stay as it is that they won't be hysterical whenever something thr

Getting enough karma to downvote doesn't really mean that much, it just means you've been here long enough and maybe submitted a few articles that got on the front page (it's much easier to get karma by submitting articles).

All of my comments in this thread started with negative points from down votes then stabilised. It seems that whenever there's a controversial topic, there are a few people who down vote every comment that goes against their viewpoint.
