Yeah. All the FUD about Huawei really solidified in my mind how stupid the average internet user is these days.

It's like, everything they were bitching about has already been confirmed to be happening with US companies thanks to PRISM and the Snowden leaks.

I swear, anime fans can't keep getting away with their soft-pedophilia.

This is the best site I've come across, but it's still not perfect.

My advice is to keep spending time getting experience using free streaming services. Since very few are like kissanime/cartoon (been around forever, haven't changed layout), if you go awhile without using them then it's like having to relearn what to do.

This is unfortunate, but the more people we have looking at them the better they should be.

We need to keep in mind that businesses like Apple are already charging the most they think customers are willing to pay.

Tariffs will hurt their bottom line by causing them to lose more in sales than they can make up for by raising unit prices.

Can we have a dropdown menu like we had in the 2000s?

Not sure why we decided removing the scrollbar and only showing the top 8 entries was a good idea.

I completely agree with this.

I'm not an 'anime fan,' but there is good anime out there like Paprika and Aku no Hana. They really push what the medium is capable of and don't just rely on tropes to appease people with low standards.

It's tough to recommend anime to some people because their opinion of the medium has been tainted by anime fans that will accept whatever slop is shoveled in front of their face.

Damn, I thought it said "loses contract."

Governments are still going to throw money at anything this guy does. Useful idiots couldn't have been more useful a few years ago.

They're using our money to get away with killing us.

Fascinating.

Apparently this was a case of the employee killing the customer.

Every day more people feel like they have nothing to lose.

It's only a matter of time until they take matters into their own hands.

Isn't the outro for that a naked Lain, who is in middle school?

I personally don't see much value of Mint or Ubuntu over Debian.

They all suffer from the same issue: lack of a user repository. This means any layman is going to immediately be turned off by the distro and the whole Linux experience as soon as they want to install something that isn't in their distro's repository.

Neither derivative distro can be considered 'easier' because of this. Might as well just go with Debian and cut out the middlemen.

McCann said she repeatedly asked her son’s school and the Department of Education and Children’s Services to intervene, "but nothing was done. No one stepped in. And now, my beautiful boy is gone," the fundraiser says.

Education is a business, everybody. The people engaged in it are businessmen.

This mother's complaints were mere inconveniences for the businessmen. None of them would be willing to stick their neck out and and actually do something to solve the issue. They hope it will sort itself out, which unfortunately it has.

Always question authority. Don't trust your peers to put your needs or the needs of the people you care about before their own.

Also, keep in mind this kid was only going to school so he could better serve the ruling class. His death will be added to the debt that the ruling class and their offspring will be paying.

There's not really a way around this, and I think one of the explainer channels actually went into depth about it.

They gave an example of how everyone learns that the earth is a sphere, but once you 'dig deeper' you find it's not actually a sphere because it's elongated at the equator (making it a spheroid.) You can then 'dig even deeper' and find that the earth isn't really a spheroid, it has mountains and all kinds of other inconsistencies that don't matter to most people but can make a difference to an expert.

The real takeaway is that we should not consider ourselves experts, or even significantly more knowledgeable about a subject because we saw a video on one of these channels. They're for entertainment first.

The Linus Torvalds version of conquering the world is hardly the Genghis Khan version.

An interesting point to make.

Richard Stallman is definitely my biggest inspiration. I never considered it as a masculine or feminine thing, just an example of someone who is correct while most of his peers are wrong.

The pen really is mightier than the sword, and it has been for awhile. That's why the ruling class doesn't want us to have any of our own ideas.

Some of these guys didn't get the memo. They probably never had a good male role model to guide them on how to adapt to modern society.
