  • Philippinos

    Filipinos. We're not a cucumber. FIX THAT.

  • Curriculum and unappetizing methods of teaching are the problems.

    This kid has the right to question, to speak out what's really logical, and is likely to be more street-wise.

  • Not surprising, it's always expected from tech corporations, where at the end of the day it's profit and favor with conservative politicians. If they're not trying to use information gathered on people to bad government looking to cut costs ("saving taxpayers' money") by removing minority beneficiaries, they love to shove content you don't even want.

    Why I never use my real name online.

  • it feels like a fascist regime

    Fixed. Pete boy wants to get rid of the progressive content he deems offensive, so that he gets better showing with the other white techbros come shareholder day.

  • While the report did not specify the brand, the design and user interface closely resembled those of a Huawei or Honor device.

    It’s unclear whether these companies officially sell phones in North Korea, but if they do, the devices are likely customized with state-approved software designed to restrict functionality and facilitate government surveillance.

    I remember watching a series of Youtube videos by a guy working in the diplomatic department of a Southeast Asian country who I can't name, and he took videos while on the sly, his camera (or phone) hidden carefully, showing some glimpses of life in Pyongyang. At one point he and his wife visited the government-run department store and, yeah, it's pretty much a drab place to be there, you'll be only buying necessities. However, there's the special section where certain types of people such as high officials and foreigners are allowed to buy electronics, mostly with hard currency, and the merchandise included smartphones, all of them looked to be Chinese brands.

  • Unfortunately some mods do have an axe to grind, so they're using the new rules for which to lay down tempbans and permabans. Even for just criticizing a particular asshole Redditor without using violent language.

  • Tech bros are in for the grift through cheap labor and blind obedience, and they don't want to waste money on what they call politically-correct.

  • afaik on the PC browsers Reddit Enhancement Suite allows further control of how content is presented, but on the app you still have to avert your eyes.

  • There in that place where closed systems are frowned upon, Install Linux, Problem Solved.

  • Hilarious and sad considering those techbros are creating the conditions for a possible economic collapse, such as playing with creepto.

    Oh yes, kinda reminds me of reading a chapter in World War Z (the book with its dark comedy is still more entertaining than the humorless movie), like how one character found himself on an island full of rich people... Guess what happened next?

  • Punks not dead! 👏

  • Banned for just showing a screenshot of a Facebook account hijacking. Later turned out to be a powertripping mod looking for an axe to grind.

  • If it's not banning, it's slapping account suspensions with no further explanation.

  • That corporation is still stuck in 1985 or 1989 (otherwise stuck in the Showa Era), trying to keep absolute control of anything it made.

  • With widespread Kahanism, they did not learn everything from their past.

  • How 50-80 years ago winning an appliance on TV used to be a big deal, like all the sudden the winner's household gets a massive jump into the space age because the appliances then must have been expensive.
