Netflix pulls the plug on so much shit that I refuse to get invested in their shows until I know they've got a satisfying conclusion. If they could commit to not having perpetual cliffhangers until unceremoniously cancelling stories I might take the plunge but they won't so I won't.
Seconded. I'll still habitually call it Maccas and my Canadian friends slowly adopt the term. I actually had a moment of doubt that it was an Australian thing for a while because of that.
It's definitely this. I often forget that my Amazon account is tied to Canada (even with a .com.au email address) and it's only when I see how cheap shit is that I realise I'm actually on amazon.com not amazon.ca
It's not really hypocrisy it's just a bald-faced lie. They know if they use terms like "small government" they'll distract rubes who don't think past slogans.
They know perfectly well what they're doing and they just don't care.
Yes, I don't know why the article even mentions the doomer because the neonazi symbol in question is the sonnenrad at the end. It honestly almost comes off as a deliberate misdirection.
Probably easier to survive in a commune of a few dozen than it would be in tents with 3 people. But yeah I think a lot of us have had dreams of fucking off to the wilds to live like a hermit.
I would probably last like 3 days and only if I'm being extremely optimistic.
It's pretty clear that games being male oriented has been somewhat of a self-fullfilling prophecy for decades. Publisher's and manufacturers have pretty much exclusively targeted young males and so it shouldn't surprise anyone that they historically made up the bulk of the market as a direct result.
It's honestly embarrassing how long it's taken for that mindset to shift when there's an obvious financial disincentive to perpetuating it.
Also the anti-fingerprinting in Firefox breaks them. Fucking awesome that I can solve that bullshit just fine and it still won't validate unless I let some asshole slurp my browser data.
They also destroy the local ecosystems where the farms are positioned. The excessive consumption we're accustomed to is the problem. But good luck stopping that because line must go up exponentially.
