Piracy is the best thing that happened to anime. Without it, anime and Japan wouldn't be nearly as popular.
They're shooting themselves on the foot. People discover anime and manga through piracy, and then if they love it, they end up spending money on it.
Just look at Berserk. I bet 90% of people who spent money on the mangas and all the deluxe editions discovered it through "illegal" means.
First came the bots, then came the bosses - we’re entering Musk and Zuck’s new era of disinformation
Seriously, all this crazyness with the US election has given me newfound sympathy for the people of Russia.
Americans literally have every respectable news source available to them, and they still get brainwashed by these buffoons because they only get their news from facebook, tiktok, fox news, and shit. They choose to be ignorant.
The Russian people at least have the excuse that they're literally living under a dictator and are fed bullshit everywhere they look. They have to actively and at the risk of their security seek out valid sources for what's actually happening.
Imagine if every news channel in the US was just Fox News. I guess we might not have to imagine it for much longer...
He's kind of right, though. The story originally broke on October 18, and look at the dates of the links from your news articles. It's all end of November. So it took them over a month to get on it.
It should have been national news on every tv station as it happened, not a small article a month later. Especially since we have a 24-hour news cycle.
But why undertake this elaborate millinery? One study published in 2016 investigated this question by holding trials involving the caterpillars and their natural predators — spiders and stink bugs. The researchers found that attacks on larvae with a stack of headcases took more than 10 times longer than attacks on larvae that had had their stack removed. They found that the empty head capsules acted as a false target for predators and could also be used to deflect the piercing rostrum of a predator.
No, because you're eating the flesh, so you're digesting it.
This is more relevant to organ transplants.
Apparently, it's a known phenomenon that some organ transplant recipients seem to inherit some traits and even memories of organ donors.
Serious question: How is this poetry? Isn't this just prose formatted in a weird way?
Nah, the loss is on stupid Americans. No matter her position on these issues, it should have been a landslide victory for anyone but Trump.

It's a captive bolt pistol, or cattle gun. It's what they use in slaughter houses to stun animals before killing them.
In commercial operations, rates of failure can be significant and multiple shots are often used. One study looking at cattle found that 12% were shot multiple times, and 12.5% were inadequately stunned. Other research has recorded higher error rates, such as a study looking at young kangaroos and finding that 38% failed to be stunned.
Ahhh, the meat industry. Isn't it beautiful...
For decades, the Justice Department has dispersed election monitors across the country to observe procedures in polling sites and at places where ballots are counted. That was a power granted to the federal government under the Voting Rights Act of 1965, which outlawed discriminatory voting practices and sought to equalize voting access. After the U.S. Supreme Court gutted parts of the law years ago, the agency now must get permission from state and local jurisdictions to be present or get a court order.
The Post’s withheld endorsement was seen as another example of tech executives and billionaires preparing for a potential second Trump administration. Meta’s (META+0.38%) Mark Zuckerberg, Apple’s Tim Cook, Amazon CEO Andy Jassy, and Google (GOOGL+0.58%) CEO Sundar Pichai have all reportedly spoken with Trump in recent weeks or months.
Fucking pathetic. Groveling at the feet of Trump.
That should be regulated. That's insane light pollution.
