Best non-chromium browser. More customisable.

You underestimate what the FCC will run with

Is this illegal at all or is there a follow up? I don't care personally, I think it's pretty funny, but feds typically don't like this type of thing. Curious what Google responded with

One of the biggest games I can think of on Unity is Rust, and Facepunch has shown that they don't really give two fucks about switching engines. Unreal doesn't really have fairer pricing, but it's way simpler so they're gonna lose a lot of business to them

Why are you gonna ask if you're gonna argue when someone tells you the answer? You said you're not American or Italian and don't know about it. Why are you arguing using information you said you know is wrong?

It's less that the stereotype isn't true and more that it applies to everybody. American stereotypes are widely based on racist enforcement of laws. Obviously there are italian crime families, but there are white crime families like the Sacklers that do far worse shit, but we don't stereotype white people as criminal masterminds. Italians are considered white in America now though, so they have less stereotypes attached to them.

If America was less racist, you wouldn't hear about country of origin in crime. I've had people of all races sell me cocaine out of the back of the sketchy restaurant.

Marvelcels in shambles

Seeing all these star trek posts makes me think I should watch star trek. I really like animation so I wanna check out lower decks but it seems like it's too baked into everything else star trek and I wouldn't get it. What do you guys think?

I'd be more critical if Roblox didn't require ID verification for 18+ accounts. Think it's fucking hilarious that Roblox dating would already be doing more than most dating apps lol.

Moto 360 and Pebble Watch are still sick af today

I'd label them legends in the sense that they're probably one of the game studios I know by name the best even though that's all they have to show for it. Postal 2 for as bugged and edgy as it is, is an extraordinarily famous game.

Kbin is definitely the answer here.

All the trailers looked really good, reminds me of the Bollywood stuff I watched as a kid. American action movies definitely can't work with anime, but I'd expect the Bollywood style to work extreme well with anime.

American movies take themselves too seriously and not seriously enough at the same time, always trying to avoid being "corny". Indian movies seem to revel in this corniness, the stories are far more genuine and the special effects being bad is part of the charm

Wish they'd do these mukbang videos with relationship fights but instead of tomato soup it's just bloody marys. Open bars make far more entertaining drama.

Why tho? It's good information.

What Balkanization does to a mf

Not necessarily getting away with the crime, but I was referring to Rita Crundwell, a town clerk who embezzled over $53 million dollars over the course of 30 years. The town had a total population of 15k. She literally just wrote fake invoices for shit and deposited it into another account. Then proceeded to spend it a prize horse and mansion with absolutely no explanation of where the money came from. She still was held responsible, but got off fairly light because she was so brazen that someone else should have caught it earlier.

Coincidentally, Ronald Reagan's childhood hometown. Started during '83 as well.

Not Australian, but it's a legal thing in America (for some crimes) where someone can get out of being liable for something if someone realistically should have stopped it. There are city clerks that have gotten out of embezzlement charges because their scheme was so obvious that someone should have noticed and stopped it long before.

Doubt this applies to being a pedo, but this type of thinking is codified in law. We can be disgusted by a pedophile being a pedophile, but this is a statement that speaks to wider systematic issues.

Louis Rossman. Right to repair is great

Yeah, I don't think this will be as good as we want. The amount of technical debt I'd expect in these big programs would be off the charts. It would take a full team of people just to feed in corrections, and they would need to both know COBOL and be willing to kill all the COBOL jobs to do it. It's a tough ask

I'm still optimistic though because it's IBM and converting between languages is a billion dollar question. I don't think IBM would do a truly irresponsible deployment of such big corporate changes. I'd expect IBM to do a LOT of testing before sending anything out that would actually change the world, such as banking software. But in could be wrong.
