“I can’t give up,” he said. “They’ve already pretty much won. They can do whatever the hell they want, but I’m still alive. I’m still breathing, and so I’m going to cost them as much money as I humanly can while I’m still on this earth. Because I’m right and they’re wrong.”
It hasn’t helped Walk’s popularity that he’s seen as transgressive in other ways – he’s an atheist in a deeply religious area and he despises Donald Trump, who won West Virginia by a thumping margin in the 2020 election, to the extent he turned up to a rally of the former president with a “Fuck Trump” sign, prompting a volley of threats.
Yup, that’s the Trojan Horse part of the meme. Good movie opens the gates for dozens of crummy copycat movies trying to take advantage of early 90s toy nostalgia.
It seems (seemed) like a pretty good vr headset…just it’s owned by one of the worst companies and I have no interest paying them hundreds for that level of access to my personal information.
I read stuff like this and initially think “no, people have a vague sense of who these politicians are” and then I remember 2008 when a girl told me John McCain was the protagonist from Die Hard and refused to believe otherwise.
It’s a pretty common thing on the internet to see somebody relating a story about someone acting in an inconsiderate way and the response is usually something like, “Well that person is a total piece of shit.”...
I think it’s a combination of lack of vocabulary, projecting a story online to their own similar thing and responding to that, and just people using a lot of hyperbole which can sometimes be misunderstood in text.
But yes, I agree, people on the internet are the fucking worst.
A U.S. Air Force general said Thursday the Pentagon's artificial intelligence ethics are better than adversaries' because "our society is a Judeo-Christian society."
Obviously the knee jerk reaction is “ah shit” buuuut what if it actually followed the teachings of Jesus instead of whatever the hell religious people on this country pretend he said?
looks like rendering adblockers extensions obsolete with manifest-v3 was not enough so now they try to implement DRM into the browser giving the ability to any website to refuse traffic to you if you don’t run a complaint browser ( cough…firefox )...
refuse traffic to you if you don’t run a complaint browser ( cough…firefox )
Ah, so I’ll need a new extension that fakes my browser to say it’s chrome before I can use adblocker. I think this is a cat and mouse game with no end.
It kinda makes sense. All the people who know better already use an ad blocker so they don’t know what it’s really like and all the people who don’t know to use an ad blocker don’t know any better and that’s just what the internet looks like.
The analyst in question, whom the court did not name, failed to get pre-approval from the deputy director that is required for searches that use “sensitive query terms,” such as the names of public officials or candidates.
“Rules for thee, but not for me.” Except it’s literal law enforcement policy…
Like they don’t ever seem to interview anyone or ask direct questions to understand what is happening, they just take a cursory glance at comment threads and pinned posts, and assume they understand what’s going on.
Being a staff writer with deadlines will do that to you.
The really annoying thing about the “brainless market oriented CEO” type, is that they’re often right about the market part and make lots of money…by destroying their product. Then off to the next shiny piggy bank to break open.
