Sunts?

Did you know that "payed" is a naval term. See Grammarly on Payed for more information

That's absolutely a ridiculous stance. Yes, you can personally go through everything, but there's also searching around to find out what other people say about it, actually look through the issues people have raised. Some of it applies to proprietary software as well, find out what other people say about the software. You don't need to do everything yourself, but you do have to take responsibility for trying to make sure it will work as you hope it will.

Stooping to insults does you no credit.

I hope you get a better life.

Plants feel pain and communicate with each other.

But where can I actually get some dog meat to eat? Gotta at least taste it to see if it's nice.

That sounds perfectly reasonable, just like sanctions against other countries that are doing something the sanctioning countries don't like.

Is that that thing where someone says something wrong to get the right answer explained to them?

Which Jordan did he take some idea from? And is Jordan the first or last name?

I kinda think that the IP address is public information when you go to a site still. Since it's needed to get data back to you and you're requesting to get data back. But maybe I'm just a bit too old and stuck in the thinking of the phone book and such.

I believe the GDPR doesn't require quite a few of the things in that law unless the company is above a certain size. May have something to do with that.

To be fair, depending on your interpretation of "shady" I'm pretty sure you can find a lot of laws most people wouldn't describe someone ignoring to be doing anything shady. ( I think that sentence should make sense)

Are they? I would have thought that the IP address of someone accessing a site is public information.

Yeah, that was about what I thought it was...
\ Same with the attempt to make people call pedophiles "MAP"s instead. (For those who haven't been made aware of the abbreviation; it is meant to stand for "Minor Attracted Person". While it's a more broad term than pedophile, since it includes the other age ranges (Something like hebephile and such, I don't remember them all, learned about it from a joke a comedian told), for normal conversations I think pedophile works fine for talking about everyone attracted to people below a certain age of which we (society) deem them capable of consenting to some things)

Spell checking doesn't help with that either, since it actually is a word. Though with the amount of people I see use "payed" instead of "paid" and the dictionaries being mostly descriptive instead of prescriptive (as far as I know) it'll probably end up being a recognized conjugation (is that the right word?) of that version of "to pay"

Oh, like in gacha games? ;P

I think it makes logical sense that acronyms are initialisms, since initialism just implies that it's formed from the initials, thus all abbreviations formed from the initials of the words are initialisms, while a subset of those can be pronounced as a word and thus can be called acronyms. Personally I think it's very important that things are named such that one can logically deduce their origin and meaning.

Is... is that a pedophile advocacy group?

I think you should see about paying a ship.
