Bill Maher is pretty damn conservative tbh

If the government slaps a 25% increase on the price of your imports then you expect a 25% increase on the price (assuming you’re selling imports directly - like PC parts).

It’s not rocket surgery.

suggesting proton mail and proton VPN

Lmao bad plan. Mullvad for the vpn. Idek for proton mail replacements but they’re 100% boot licking, proactively reporting “illegal” mail to the cops.

Damn removing the r34 subreddit really is the end of an era.

The bystander effect is mostly misunderstood and the way it’s depicted here is almost entirely myth.

You’re almost guaranteed to be helped by a bystander. Kitty Genovese was murdered where nobody could see after bystanders shouted at the guy from the building in his first attempt.

I’m convinced he doesn’t need any of that, and if he decides to publish another game he can damn well take his time doing so.

He doesn’t owe you shit - he doesn’t need the money - he’s doing this because he loves to make games.

Why the fuck would you impose bureaucracy onto free creative expression? Just for your own selfish enjoyment?

Shame on you

Hey thanks for the correction - my mistake!

It is dogshit compared to tiktok in the only functionality that matters - algorithmic matching of content to user.

Yeah ok it can stream a video cool. That’s not worth a can of beans in 2025 - can it give you content that you want to see when you want to see it?

The answer is a resounding no right now. Until it’s consistently serving up top notch pairings of content to user interest it wont stand a chance in the mainstream.

The proactive part is when they shut your account down and report it to the cops but yeah, the cooperating with interpol by providing data that they claimed they didn’t keep is damning.

They’ve been cooperating with law enforcement and handing data to the cops proactively since 2021.

Pay attention.

The writing was on the wall for proton for a while now

As of Salesforce didn’t suck enough as is

I mean the arguments themselves were fairly cogent, all things considered. The prosecution got grilled pretty damn hard too.

Because the app store isn’t the only way to install an app. It is trivially easy to side load apps and it’s well within the technologic skillset of the average 12 year old.

They’ve set it up so it’s a legal mess. The platforms aren’t given any mechanism to actually perform verifications (no double blind id system, for example) but are legally on the hook for each and every under-16 on the platforms. A quote in the article suggests it should be the app stores verifying which is even more fucking stupid.

Unwashed eggs have a much shorter shelf life before the salmonella gets through the porous shell.

The EU sells unrefrigerated eggs because they’re fresher - they spoil significantly faster than American eggs.

EU health and obesity rates have way more to do with urbanism than diet and health outcomes compared to the USA is such a useless comparison. America’s trying to kill you off the moment you get sick. Pay or die: yeah no wonder it’s such a shit show.

And the EU allows food that we don’t in ours, like Cyclamate. Raw milk and unwashed eggs are all perfectly legal too.

They’re not perfect.

I mean it doesn’t seem like his sister thinks it’s satire. Poes law etc
