Fact-checking is one thing, but they didn't even spell-check.

A lot of males did not vote for her because she was female.

Where's the data that show this?

I have NO idea why the democrats chose Harris as the nominee.

Well, that's the thing: they didn't. She didn't win the primary, Biden did; and Biden won because there was no opposition. My ballot had two choices: "Joe Biden" and "Uncommitted". I voted Uncommitted.

The fact that people wish that she had won is the real problem.

I don't think that we need million-dollar movies. And, no, I don't think that humans would quit making art if you removed the profit motive. We've been making art going all the way back to pre-history, and most of those artists were not wealthy. Art wasn't something created by capitalism in order to get people to fork over dollars for the latest Marvel Cinematic Explosion.

We also wouldn't have any media if everyone pirated.

If nobody copied, a lot of media would get lost to time.

Ask yourselves why the logic works for social media but not porn.

Because they're two completely different things.

Damn, the whole world really is going authoritarian.

I seem to remember something about a genocide, too.

I don't think Kamala could even tell you what policies Kamala ran on.

This was the first thing I thought of, too. "Glad to see the guy from that Daft Punk video is having a pretty great life these days!"

One of those is pre-death and the other is near-death. I don't see how either suggests that there's some ghost-brain that functions after death.

Consciousness isn't a tangible thing. It's just a label we use for a type of brain behavior. Once there's no brain, there's no more behavior. Just like once your heart dies, there's no more heartbeat.

It starts a bit morally ambiguous, like letting a woman (who is ruining the life of your surrogate son by getting him back into using drugs) die from her own bad choices.

I didn't find that morally ambiguous at all. That was when I had my first "okay, fuck this guy" moment.

I also want to point out how your last paragraph starts with "The point is that there is no understanding what he did in the end", and then you promptly proceed to explain how you understand it.

This is crucial to understanding his villain arc. He winds up doing all of these terrible things because of his wounded ego.

Thanks to your comment, I found out that PCSX2 uses CHDs. I thought that was a format that only MAME used.

In the case of archive.org, why not just download directly from the website? I've never seen a need to use their torrents.

Donald Trump does not have "all the power". Otherwise, he wouldn't be acquiescing to the courts at all. It's wild to me that you think that the US government would do a worse job of running SpaceX and Starlink than Elon Musk.

You're treating it like simply replacing one CEO with another, but that isn't what it would be. I know that Trump wants to be king, but he still isn't.

I've got the feeling none of y'all read past the headline.

Yeah, let's leave all that power in the hands of one narcissistic egomaniac who's frequently going on ketamine benders. What could possibly go wrong?
