You can still opt out by not visiting the site, which I encourage everyone to try.

I won't sit through a non-organic product placement. If I'm watching a guy weld up a body panel and he tells me how great a welder is, it doesn't bother me. If I'm watching and he starts telling me about his VPN or a phone game, that shit's getting skipped.

More guns in the hands of the other children would have kept this travesty from occurring. #hopesandprayers

People who craft intentionally misleading titles with a qualifier at the end that diffuses the statement have been proven to be pedophiles, schwim says.

You should post this to more groups. You're dominating the front page.

Sadly, it seems both sides of any discussion have now mastered hyperbole, manipulating statistics, leaving out facts and stretching the truth to make their argument. You basically can't believe anything you read any longer.

I don't think the issue is performance though. The unspoken part of this comparison is in bold:

"Linux vs Windows tested in 10 games. In the games we could find that work on linux, the performance was 17% faster on average. In all the rest of the games, Windows worked 100% better."

YT's push into ad-blocker blocking did the same for me that Reddit's API change did, that being it was enough of a push for me to stop using their platform. In Reddit's case, I get my fix from Lemmy and in YT's case, I use Freetube to watch videos. In both cases, I'm sure they're not losing money in my absence but I do feel better not giving them the data that I used to.

But they hate much more than just trans people. You could have said 50% and you would have been closer to the truth.

They report on that because that's what their readers care about. Don't hate the player, hate the game.

Wikipedia said:

Estimates from 2021 suggest that of the entire U.S. population (332 million) about 63% is Christian (210 million).

12k just doesn't seem like a newsworthy amount.

There's some people that can't come up with positive references, even when cherrypicked. I'd probably fall into that group.

How does Firefox fail you at tabs? I've always been happy with it, I sandbox my FB and Google social stuff, Save groups for opening at once, share tabs across devices, I don't want for anything.

I always wonder how I would feel in this scenario as other than viewing it as some form of terrible lottery winning, it just all seems even worse. There was no justice for what occurred and anyone that says government entities need to pay for when they do something like this, I'm not sure why you think anyone other than the taxpayers are footing this bill.

It just seems like a "better than nothing" scenario where the government pays victims off with the victims' own money to go away.

Wouldn't this be applicable to any EV and not just a particular brand that it's popular to throw into titles for maximum views right now?

This has been Tesla's modus operandi since day one of Musk's involvement and the bootlicking fanboys have helped blame the victims of the failures to keep legitimate claims from gaining ground in recalls.
