I absolutely despise it when people say "should have known better" when companies mess up. Not everyone is going to spend weeks researching obscure information before buying a phone.

Noticed that. It used to be easy to bypass, because old.reddit.com allowed me to go there with a VPN, but they recently patched it. I found that changing the user agent to make it look like you're on Chrome and Windows, alongside with US/Canada VPNs tend to get around this, but it isn't very reliable.

Stealth used to work for a while, but not anymore either.

They are doing it to stop ~~scrappers~~ scrapers and punishing people who use a VPN is just a bonus to them.

I didn't know it was a real word and assumed OP made it as a combination of abnormal and enormous. Just looked it up though and you're right.

I think people like her deserve to spend the rest of their lives in prison, but no crime, no matter how severe, deserves a death penalty.

I was confused about how people were angry about Cathode Ray Tubes at first. Had to search both initialisms to figure out what the post is about.

Oh that's such a delicious irony... Also, letting a guy who was convicted of felony forgery become vice president of the republican party is so fitting for the party of election frauds.

With that said, I do think that prisoners should be allowed to vote as they are still citizens, even while in prison, let alone during their probation.

Pretty sure he does that because he wants to limit the governments' power to control people's finances, which from his perspective after seeing how untrustworthy these powerful institutions are, I can understand his desire for it. I don't agree with him on cryptocurrency stuff, but I do understand his perspective and how one would come to that conclusion.

At least now you know what has been eating you for so long. Like Morpheus said to Neo in the movie The Matrix:

Neo: I can’t go back, can I? Morpheus: No. But if you could, would you really want to?

You can't unlearn it, it would only hurt you more trying to pretend like nothing has changed. I hope the people in your life will support you through this.

As someone who kept up with the story from day one, I despise this man for what he did in his depraved mental state, and think he should be imprisoned for a long time to keep society safe from him. But at the same time I am against the death penalty no matter the crime, as I don't believe the state should have the legal right right to execute anyone once they are not an immediate threat.

CPR. You may not think about it in your day to day life, but in an emergency it's a very low hanging fruit to save someone's life. If someone is not breathing, chest compressions baby... go to town.

I honestly don't get Elon's obsession with X. First it was his thing with x.com and PayPal, then it was SpaceX, then he called his son X, then Twitter....

No wonder his wife became his X wife.

Gamer's Nexus did a video criticizing LTT's methodologies and review process. Makes a lot of good points and I hope LTT takes it to heart and improve.

Edit: After the shitshow that was Linus' response, and later their apology video, I was skeptical of their sincerity. Followed by Madison's horrible experiences and treatment at LMG, and I am done with LMG for good.
