I say make sure it happens. So much media is free because we paid for it as taxpayers, but takes huge amounts of effort to find because the TV won't direct us to it. There are big bribes going on to make sure netflix is on a remote control, yet the tv doesn't even come installed with the ABC or SBS. I hope they manage to fix this.

Some stupid bastard did that on Tasmania (also an island, somewhat bigger) and they have been a whole world of trouble.

Clear sticky tape does the trick.

Shorts made it less addictive, they're awful to watch and I invariably stop at one.

Perhaps you are experiencing a spike in your own addictive behaviour?

So it is a bad thing?

Turkeys might not be able to fly as adults, but they can glide just fine. If not affected by the downdraft under a helicopter rotor, which would affect any birds ability to fly.

Okay, lost it at pouty face.

Firefly: Book: "I believe there’s a power greater than men, a power that heals." Mal: "Reavers might take issue with that philosophy."

that seems somewhat a relief.

Is Cincinatti when the turkeys drop considered a good or a bad thing? My wiki walk has led me other places now, but it seemed all to be negative consequences?

I'm fine with any of those options. The bot is a menace.

So I figured I would google it, evidently some USian reference.... First few links were to when students drop out of Uni or other tertiary education, apparently they are referred to as turkeys, and turkey dropouts. For some reason. Or alternatively they break up with their partners.

But apparently that is a reference to dropping live turkeys out of a helicopter in a sitcom. It sounds somewhat bloodthirsty, and I do not want to see such a thing, though I can imagine... Terrifyingly that is apparently a reference to a real world event of dropping live turkeys from the back of a moving truck....

Okay. Huh.

I knew Americans were weird about turkeys and have a holiday set aside for them, but this seems ridiculous somehow.

The worst thing about this bot is that people trust it. I shouldn't have to follow it around, check the summary and the article, and write a summary of its mistakes. That it is thoroughly unreliable should be broadcast when it is used.

I don't know who owns you, bot, but you are really really inreliable and they should put you back in the box where your summaries won't mislead people.

The point is that Microsoft can run malware whenever and however they like. It is not useful for the user.

Reddit was at the extreme end of emoji rejection as far as I ever saw. Odd that you experienced differently. I often saw well-upvoted comments such as "downvote due to emoji use" next to heavily downvoted emojis on Reddit.

Not an emoji fan myself, but each to their own.

All depends on the supplier, but there is no requirement for them to make the distinction.

Nah, it's all in the article, and that is not it.

Yep, several of them.

It's all called roo, but all the "kangaroo" meat in coles and woolies etc in Tassie is wallaby, none of it is roo, despite the label.

It is doing very innaccurate and misleading summaries. I've read a few which completely turned around important points in the actual article. This one is not a great summary either. If people see the downvotes they will hopefully realise the summary is wrong.

Supporting all out genocide is not what you would expect from a paper like that one.

Huh. Interesting. You can buy tongue in cans, it's pretty normal. The can is disturbingly tongue shaped, but it basically is just potted meat.
