Same reason every independent store and restaurant gets replaced by a chain.

People want what's familiar. Both these men won their primaries and have the most support out of anyone in their parties.

That's what they always used to say to Chris Hansen when he'd confront them about the texts

It's a bunch lonely people who got hypnotized by a podcast and now that podcast informs all their opinions.

In Origins there is a lot of grimdark stuff. Women taken into the tunnels and turned into unwilling broodmares that you need to murder

I obviously have issues with his actions in '16

But they were going after him for releasing the footage of the US gunning down civilians. Not his actions during the election.

The c-levels are really sick of all these new features they're adding and no one is using them because of silly reasons like "they don't work good" or "I can't even see the point of this for me".

In their wisdom, they've taken the option to say no away from the users. Now they have a much easier time justifying their bonus this year, just look at how many users are using their new features!

Am I the only one preferring low quality media over high quality one?

I have a very slow Internet connection (5 Mbps down, and even less for upload). Given that, I always download movies at 720p, since they have low file size, which means I can download them more quickly. Also, I don't notice much of a difference between 1080p and 720p. As for 4K, because I don't have a screen that can display 4K,...

kandoh ,

Yes, if I don't have the absolute best quality I can get it drives me crazy.

Everyday when I wash the dishes I ask my google home to give me the news, it goes CBC to CNN to PBS and those very mainstream sources have been pretty decent in communicating how high the death toll for Palestinians have been and how dire the situation there is.

Amazon Mulls $5 to $10 monthly price tag for unprofitable Alexa service, AI revamp ( www.reuters.com )

Amazon (AMZN.O) is planning a major revamp of its decade-old money-losing Alexa service to include a conversational generative AI with two tiers of service and has considered a monthly fee of around $5 to access the superior version, according to people with direct knowledge of the company's plans.

Those are periods!

I never used to understand why Picard and the crew got upset with Data's long winded explanations until I got a Google Home. Now I understand very well.

My relatives from Sweden visited recently and they're all super obsessed with Russia and certain they're days away from being invaded

kandoh ,

Let's check back in on this comment after November 😞

kandoh ,

I don't think the Nordics have to worry about a successful invasion from Russia, but an unsuccessful one would also suck really bad

In 2008 the Tories just put up signs every saying 'CANADIAN ACTION PLAN IN EFFECT' without actually doing any actions.

They will simply say, over and over again, that they have built more homes than ever before - without evidence - and people will believe it because they've heard it so many times.

He should definitely stop asking young children to suck his tongue

kandoh ,

It's also possible that those sources are running cover for polical reasons

kandoh ,

The sources you provided are all people invested in keeping up the appearance of their political figure.

This looks like it went a little further than just a translation error

Kissing

They won't need the bunkers, they'll easily convince the dumbest half of the population that the climate crisis is a result of too many brown, black, and yellow people and that any action taken should be against those people. We're speeding towards ecofacism.

kandoh ,

Honestly, the layout and formatting of forums just isn't as good as the way comments are sorted and how they can spawn side discussions like on Reddit or Lemmy.

kandoh ,

I think maybe the forums give the illusion of a longer discussion because a low effort reply is given the same weight as a really in-depth reply post.

It bumps the post back up to the top too so that kind of encourages continued discussion in a way Reddit posts don't. So that's a benefit to forums.

How many people actually want fully on-site IT jobs?

I've been looking for a new job as a software developer. The huge majority of job listings I see in my area are hybrid or remote. I just had an introductory phone call with Vizio (which didn't specify the location type in the job listing). The recruiter told me that the job was fully on-site, which I told her was a deal breaker...

kandoh ,

Maybe you should meet yourself first

I hear every episode takes place in a courtroom

It took me awhile to figure out that Just Be Yourself™ is normie speak for telling you to just relax.

Between this and the Hostel Tv series announcement... Did Paulie G get divorced recently or something? Is he hard up for cash?

kandoh ,

Because they are fools, brother. They fear what we could become if we were free to train out techniques to their maximum without societal judgment

kandoh ,

I think it's more that the situation is only going to get worse the longer we wait so he's pulling the trigger now for the best conditions he's ever going to get. Not great

The social contract is null and void if it means a European ever has to see a Muslim person on the street.

Russia wouldn't have to do this if NATO wasn't being so aggressively pro-gay 😤

I know people love Futurama but I sort of blame it for making the Simpsons less good.

The problem with the carbon tax is the same problem with the US's Obamacare. It's the conservative solution that liberals picked because they thought it would be the easiest way to get the right on board with a plan of action.

In reality, the easiest way to get the right on board with a plan of action is if you either bribe them or threaten them with an overwhelming show of force. They can't be worked with, only steamrolled.

kandoh ,

Something to think about is that there are men who see a benefit to gayness being something you can be social ostracized for, because it enables them to have gay sex freely with the knowledge that if there partners ever tell anyone about it they'll suffer repercussions.

kandoh ,

I bet you both the Tories and the Liberals are up to their necks in this shit.

It would be nice if this caused both parties to lose terribly and left us with an NDP-Green-Bloc dominated parliament for a few years

kandoh ,

I'm sure they only escaped the majority of interference because they were seen as not worth the effort

World of Warcraft and Elder Scrolls Online subscription rolled into Gamepass to convert mmo players into Gamepass subscribers.

Diablo 5: Sold individually at launch but accessing new seasons require Gamepass. Same with CoD.

Minecraft Base Game F2P and packaged with every Windows OS. Full game with updates and multiplayer require Gamepass subscription though.

Netanyahu says deadly Israeli strike in Rafah was the result of a 'tragic mistake' ( apnews.com )

TEL AVIV, Israel (AP) — Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Monday that a “tragic mistake” was made in an Israeli strike in the southern Gaza city of Rafah that set fire to a camp housing displaced Palestinians and, according to local officials, killed at least 45 people....

kandoh ,

Funny, when it first happened they had officials saying this was because rockets were fired at Tel Aviv from Gaza.

It's pretty clear that the people in Gaza are being collectively punished for Hamas attacks. Shoot rockets at us, we'll shoot our rockets at people living in tents in your territory. That will teach you.

They're storing proof of my fuck up which I fixed but if anyone looks it up I'm cooked

No one's done more damage to Israel than Bibi

The editors are all gone now. Look at newspapers. No one is going to pay someone to check the work of the other guy you're paying for that work, that's like paying twice for the same job.

Biden is dramatically out of touch with voters on Gaza. He may lose because of it ( www.theguardian.com )

On the issue of Gaza, Biden is dramatically out of touch with the voters he needs to win re-election. If he will not be moved by morality to stop his support of this war, he should be moved by vulgar self-interest. Gaza is not a distant foreign conflict: it is an urgent moral emergency for large swaths of voters. Biden will lose...

kandoh ,

Dismiss the 'sjws' sure, but it's literally impossible for democrats to win the presidency unless black voters are enthusiastic about the candidate. Biden's Gaza stance hurts him with black voters.

Most states will let grown men marry children as young as 14. There is a special carve out for Christian pedophiles.
