Lol, I never got that from the books. I find that Chalamet plays pretty much the same character no matter what he does.

Gotta love that a fictional character created by a transphobe carries more weight and concern than the further destruction of our biosphere.

What’s wrong with Wenslydale?

Yeah, but he doesn’t have to act like it. IMO I find Chalamet flat with no range.

I miss the excitement of new and better.

From cellphones bolted into cars

To affordable handhelds

To text messaging

OMG you can send pictures!? (Crappy, But yes!)

Free nights, free weekends

Then unlimited texts

Nokias to flip phones, to phones with slide-out keyboards and windows CE on them…

Then most plans slowly became unlimited data/voice/text

Then came the iphone which wrecked everything. They’re all black obelisks now that are virtually mini-pc’s that want to do nothing except track you, monetize you, keep you constantly connected, distract you, and disengage you. Nothing’s new, you just own less, pay more, and fight a retreating battle for your privacy and rights.

It is most certainly not real.

Fake, but funny.

Some people don’t work well with the conditions set by others, or work well with others at all. They want a human, but can’t make it happen. So a robot that doesn’t say no, as creepy as that is, will be what some demand. A self-driven device like a fleshlight isn’t going to fit their desire.

It’s wild how different the symptoms and effects of covid can be. I know people who have been asymptomatic, a few died, or have had major long-term health issues. Even the regular cases of it vary from a light cold to a bad flu.

A virus that really highlights how different genetics and overall heath affect each person who gets infected.

“Golden Age of Science”

Means they start with the conclusion they want and make the data fit. Golden age of everything agreeing with them.

Absolutely. Sometimes the two and three stars are useful, people tend to write more nuanced reviews about what went wrong or other issues with whatever is being reviewed. You might also find someone who has taken the time to find a fix if there is one, or suggest a possible alternative product that does the job. One stars are usually “this (thing) sucks because (reasons) and I’d give it negative stars if I could!”

Because all those other cctvs and stuff are owned by companies that don’t want to get sued for posting people’s images non-consensually online. Doesn’t matter if it’s legal to be recorded in public or not. If someone can say a company caused harm because of said imagery, it’s going to be expensive.

Individual people have no problem at all posting these videos and commenting on people they capture, and people viewing that clip will do so as well.

As for the rest; out of sight, out of mind. But even then some take measures to avoid being tracked.

Should be required to say if they are paid by anyone for the purpose of expressing a political view. Not just campaigns.

A set of nice tools, keys to a cool car you’ll have to puzzle out, and a 4080ti card.

Because he tells the truth and doesn’t stop telling the truth. So now he gets to be sent to the gulag.

But then we get decision paralysis, and also wonder if there’s something else we’re missing to make the right decision.

Centrist: a right winger that doesn’t want to face the realities of either situation.

Do those other warehouses suck shitloads of extra power and water in an already water-poor state that has rolling brownouts and sky-high power and water costs?

No.

So the people are right to know there’s a difference. Apparently mayors are too stupid to know.

AirBnB became too many people’s “passive income”.

They don’t want to take care of the property or have too many to take care of, so they treat customers like house sitters for the luxury of renting the property as well as building equity off them.

Pretty messed up. In the early days Airbnb was ok, we used it a couple times, but I don’t think I’d want to mess with it today.

Saddam was executed because the Bush’s wanted it. He’s also got dark skin and is a foreign religion.

Netanyahu isn’t executed because he’s worth money to the West. And he’s white.
