Well, the fact is that there are also a LOT of dumb customers willing to buy crap.

As much as everyone love Oblivion…it all started from there with the $9 horse armour DLC.

God knows why.

Yet somehow there’s enough of a customer base for that that they sell it.

Kids. Fucking kids. Thankfully I am never that stupid to buy individual DLCs even when I was a child, which is compounded by familial circumstances and education, but kids will be kids. Either they stole their parent’s credit card to pay for useless virtual items, or they were spoiled and never taught with financial literacy.

The Spanish prime minister-- Pedro Sanchez-- is a political animal. He managed to maul and contain the far-right in a snap election he called. He has also spurred the economy and is growing, because he integrated many migrants well into the labour force. And even baser is that his government is pro-Palestine. All he had done in the past years granted him the political and social capital to enact policies that might ruffle the feathers of monied and powerful interests.

I hope Sanchez’s government will survive any politicking against his progressive policies. The housing crisis is happening across the developed world, and oligarchs will propagandise the public into believing that the crisis is unsolvable, because resolving this will eat their bottomline.

The account in question is three weeks old and already has 728 comments.

Totally not a bot.

This is like asking what is the best or favourite South Park episode. I can’t think of a favourite studio Ghibli movie. But for me, probably the closest to my number 1 spot is “When Marnie was there.” I am not sure why, but the movie pulls a heart string for me and it feels more personal. Speaking of the movie, I can’t believe that the movie is 10 years old this year! I remember watching it for the first time in my local independent theatre!

But even so, Netflix still retain good sound quality compared to alternative sources.

I definitely look at the file size first. Although, as you already alluded to, sometimes it gets cheated with the resolution being cropped to either the top or side. And a major issue with downloading large file sizes is if you are unlucky enough that there aren’t many seeders.

The only limitation on sailing the high seas is that the video and sound quality are not as great as legit streaming. You get descriptions that claim it is ripped full 4k or HD, but when actually looking at the encoding, it is not the case. But what can we do? If we are being made to stream in shit, it is better to sail in blue ocean high seas.

We all know why.

Hear, hear! I miss the days when trolling used to mean piss take. If someone is trolling, troll them back!

Somehow people forgot to give other the people this memo, including the “you don’t fucking join social networks as your self”. Anonymity makes this all work.

I do get into political debates, but I don’t overshare my real info and I certainly don’t ban anyone for disagreeing with me. I find it cringe if anyone bans someone for disagreement to maintain “mental health”. Unless someone is stalking or making a calculated harrasment on the person online, sure ban or report the troll, but banning someone because the person does not have a good response shows pettiness and immaturity.

I have kind of arrived to the same conclusion. If people asked me what is love, I would say it is a religion.

It has been a long time since I watched Her, but my takeaway from the movie is that because making real life connection is difficult, people have come to rely on AI which had shown to be more empathetic and probably more reliable than an actual human being. I think what many people don’t realise as to why many are single, is because those people afraid of making connections with another person again.

Zuckerburg and Facebook enable lies to spread because that’s how he makes money.

Musk, Zuckerberg and Bezos-- you can tell they are insecure. They became rich and powerful and now want to stomp on people.

Because Bernie knew the system is rigged against him and thus allowed neoliberals like Biden to have their way. Now that the DNC lost pathetically to an orange man, and the DNC leadership is enabling fascism, I don’t hear “vote blue no matter who” nonsense anymore. And Bernie and AOC have the last laugh and “told you so” moment to the DNC. Their tours are gathering record number crowds since Obama’s 2008 campaign.

Attenborough still looks great and sharp for 99 years old!

Arghhh!!!

Why would I want these ultra racist slavers to come here when the economy is tanking so they can buy up shit cheap?

Since you asked and now that I think about it, with educated and more open-minded Americans emigrating, I think Afrikaners will take their place instead…

I heard Assassin’s Creed Shadows is decent if not good. But overall, it looks like AC Origins is the last properly good Ubisoft game.

Trump made Québécois what Canadians themselves couldn’t do, make Québécois more Canadian.
