  • And Israel is not avoiding killing civilians. Their conflict with Hamas is just an excuse to purge and expunge Palestinians like times before.

  • Two people I argue make that band - Axl and Slash.

    Axl would have a hard time going with another guitarist if they weren't Slash.

  • It's when he gets into the "Why does everyone hate me" and "FUCK EVERYONE WHO'S NOT LIKE ME AND CAN'T HANDLE ME I DRINK MONSTER, FUCK EVERYONE RAHHH!!" rhetoric is where he gets really unbearable.

  • Yeah but they also use the word 'commercialize' which could very well mean that they're looking to get something out from this. How much and who's profiting is what we don't know yet but it is a concern.

  • My immediate interpretation was "...did she get involved in some copyright lawsuits against pirates?". The answer is inconclusive because I couldn't find any search results that had her name plastered or referenced in any copyright/pirate cases.

    However I did discover that she's the CEO of another company called the Markup, which basically is just a nonprofit newsroom that fact-checks some reports. So I suppose she's just someone who studies law on media to get a better understanding if I'm reading into that, but it's such a vague term to use if you're not like a practicing lawyer that specializes in media like copyright. I don't know, she failed to post any credentials other than declaring a position.

  • If he's spent $44 Billion on it, you can rest assure he's not letting it go that easily unless he sees more than half of that come back from a buyer. And the only way he'll see that money is if Apple or Microsoft will bother with it, which they won't.

  • I don't care whether or not she connects with an audience. You can communicate with the audience all you want.

    What matters is whether or not she's actually going to mean anything, instead of playing cute for people.

  • I don't care, that sycophant can fuck himself.

    Still Twitter to me.

  • I cleaned the cache like 2 or 3 days ago. Even then, because of my browsing habit that would've made it go to a gig again, ProtonMail still loaded fine.

    And not 2 minutes longer after posting this - ProtonMail worked. I don't know sometimes, I just don't with these things.

  • I always suspect a lot of them are coming from Reddit to take their daily dump on something to discourage others from using. All in hopes that we come back to Reddit so that they can gaslight, cry to mods and have us banned again just for their own amusement.

    Yeah they say that the internet in general can produce these kinds of people from all corners, but you do notice by behavior. If it isn't Reddit, it's got to be Twitter. One of the two, they're the most rabid of the bunch that would resort to these kind of things because they don't lead any productive lives.

  • Wish I had known this beforehand in like several accounts I've had with that shit-ass place.

    Then again, it's likely that Reddit has shit archived because Spez is one of them data-farmers like Mark is. Nothing is truly deleted from their sites. It's just archived.

    There's been lots of evidence that proves this, because people have dug up old comments, even down to who posted it originally. Then, even if your account is deleted, your comment body is still there, I know because I've deleted an account and checked back where I was before.

  • I'm not sure what can be brought to Winamp that'll make it better through open source. Maybe it'll be a default alternative for Linux distros? That'd be cool.

    But, Winamp to me is just a program I use that plays video game soundtracks that are different formats aren't MP3 or WAV. Like Super Nintendo with .SPC for example.

    AIMP has predominantly taken the mantle on my system as default media player, it's just feature rich and long won me over the day my PC suddenly rebooted and the song I was playing was just on pause with that program! Winamp couldn't do this, whenever I re-opened it, song stopped playing entirely, gotta play it again.

  • That's the other thing too - who is this guy even saving? Most of the times, his stories are about saving himself from himself. He's achieved that at least a couple times but they were all non-canon yet did make for interesting arcs for a while.

    Then there's Betty but she long has stopped being a main factor.

    All that Hulk has turned into now is just that - "Who we smashing today?"

  • Wow...what choices...

    voters had an unenviable choice of congressional candidates in the GOP primary Tuesday: a guy who stormed the Capitol on January 6, or an incumbent who, after having to evacuate the Capitol during the riot, went back to vote against certifying the election. Voters chose the incumbent.

  • When your problem isn't out of some minor inconvenience that totally doesn't need a manager.

  • Superman.

    He's just a dude that was made of perfection. Nothing can go too wrong for him. Perfectly strong. Perfectly sound. Perfectly everything.

    Yes I know and am aware of the arcs he's been in where writers have tried to give Superman internal challenges and struggles about who he is as a superhero. But it's like he's going to bounce back from it all anyways because he's walking perfection.

    And a lot of over-compensating guys idolize that.

  • Fuuuuuuck...

    I hated how he became the symbol now of people who're desperately quirky. You couldn't throw a damn rock without it hitting some average person who closely associates with Deadpool because "he's like me! I say and do random shit for the lulz and so does he and that's all foonay!".

    And yes he is fucking obnoxious to the nth degree, he isn't creatively written or crafty with his wits. People just think "oh Deadpool is totally the guy who'd ride a unicorn into battle....BECAUSE IT'S DEADPOOL! HAW HAW HAW!!". Like I don't think I want Deadpool to be overly serious or edgy, I just want him to be written not in the way he is now. I just feel there could be more there because he's not a character anymore - he's noise. Loud and obnoxious noise.

  • Yeah, out of all of the superheroes that have the spotlight, Hulk's is one I just don't find as special as others. His stories are all bland and limited. His rogue gallery of opponents aren't even challenging because he easily defeats all of them and there are so few that were memorable.

    And the way his powers work is laughable, because the only way he ever gets strong is just by being angrier? It's totally unimaginative and soundingly lazy. Like it sounds thought of by some angry internet user who dreams of getting angry and strong to "git back at them internet bullies!" kind of deal.

  • I've tried olives. I just couldn't get past the juices that they're stored in which I feel ruins the taste.

    I prefer sliced olives on supreme pizzas and that's it.

  • I remember a song that still rings in my mind to this day and I remember watching it way back when MuchMusic existed on cable in my country. I just don't know the lyrics, I don't know the band. The only vivid thing I remember was parts of it's music video and I tried going off on that.

    With the way search engines are today, it's hard to find results when all you've got is vague details. It sucks even more when you know exactly what you're talking about but the search engine drags in irrelevant contexts to what you're looking for.

    I was only ever once able to find another seemingly lost track I heard of that I also only knew the sound but nothing of the lyrics or band. The only way I found that was through a lyric site, that I also forgot about. It was this industrial song that turned out to be 'War' by Wumpscut.
