China is state capitalism anyway. There isn't much Communist about them. The "party" is their 1% permanent ruling class.

That just goes with a territory of having an iPhone. When you bought that device you signed on to a culture of consumption that is enforced by the developer of that device.

The developer can't force Apple to let the developer give it to you for free. Apple doesn't tolerate free very well and anything that is free on Apple is likely either a privacy nightmare or is paid for by some subscription you have with Apple.

This isn't a problem with the app It's a problem with the Apple.

Sometimes we have to make sacrifices to uphold our principles.

Not getting abused by Sony and it's ilk Is just one of the many principles that we can uphold at minimal risk and for minimal cost.

I'm curious where you are that a business line doesn't cost more than a residential one because in my area it's three times as much. I am fortunate enough that I get symmetrical gigabit for $90 a month and although they don't promise static IP my IP has not changed in a while.

If I wanted to get a real static IP I would have to upgrade to a business line It would cost $280 a month.

The series has a very satisfying conclusion.

It's one of the coolest fucking things we watched this last year.

Have you ever met the kind of people that keep rats as pets? I'm gonna guess that at least 1% of them have tasted rat milk.

Odin's trying something different this time.

That sounds like a recruitment tactic for the party of impotent rage.

It doesn't appear that they're asking for money so maybe your vibe detector is broken.

Boycotting Israel seems like It's pretty obviously the right thing to do.

My hourly rate for tutoring is actually about 50% higher than my hourly rate for on call support which is about 100% higher than my hourly rate for work.

I'm trying to afford groceries here, It's not 90 days payable It's pay-per-play. I'm tired of trying to finance an inhaler while the boss's favorite child can't decide on a font color and thinks that 5 minute phone calls at 7:30 on a friday are free.

How dare they fight back. That's such an antagonistic thing to do. Don't they know they're not allowed to defend themselves.

It reminds me of my own father knocking down the bathroom door and then saying, "Put your hands down. I consider that threatening."

If you can, get pictures of the dog running unleashed and try to make sure the picturea don't come from an angle that makes it obvious it was taken from your yard.

Taking photos from the street will give you some enhanced credibility and anonymity while also making the authorities think this is more than a neighborly dispute.

Am the grammar an spelling part of joke?

You can vote for The guy who says Tut Tut to the genocidal madman or the guy that says, "finish the job".

There are also other issues at play. They are both a vote for genocide but one of them would like to bring that here there and everywhere!

The luddites were a labor movement. They fought for the rights of skilled workers to make a living.

Somehow you have fallen for the myth that machines make art.

These are so great I regularly put on a playlist of dankmus, I wish he was still making stuff on this channel.

I put it on a lot of things sweet and savory alike. It goes with the rosemary, pepper, salt and coriander when I roast potatoes. It also goes into snickerdoodles or a half dozen different kinds of cake. It also makes a really good additive to soap if you make your own soap.

It's such an underappreciated spice, at least in the US where nobody seems to know what's going on despite enjoying the food.

The only time people don't question what the flavor is, is when I make Indian food.

We have stopped sending weapons to Ukraine but have continued sending weapons to Israel.

Nothing about what you describe as is cut and dry as you are describing it. The easiest way to protect global trade from pirates would be to stop using global trade to arm psychopaths.

Some of the largest protests the world and specifically America had ever seen took place during the Iraq and Afghanistan wars drawing incredible numbers of people all across the country to protest. Our government got violent putting down a lot of those protests and The News largely just didn't report it.

It's just harder to hide shit now, but a lot of people seem to discount how much power the TV had over what people thought was going on outside.

I guess coprocracy is just the fossilized remnants of kakistocracy.
