I’d rather wait years to see a movie than to go to the terrible experience theaters have become.

You know it’s bad when Sony is issuing refunds.

It’s perfectly reasonable. Why would they stop when there is no longer a POC to murder?

The war where we were hosting nazi rallies, content to suit on the sidelines until it directly affected us. Then we also nuked two civilian population centers. That war? Perhaps you should read a fucking book.

Zero.

My thoughts exactly. He decided to die and, if possible, take some of his oppressors with him. There literally is no point in the history of this country I can point to and state that our government has acted decently. My heart goes out to this man pushed to the brink, his death truly saddens me.

It seems we broke that man, and that was the final straw.

I’m simply confused and asking. There is no need to be overly sensitive.

What exactly is the point in purchasing this? It’s literally an old hardboiled egg. Freeze it and take it out occasionally to stare at it because it’s round? Very strange.

That’s fair. I may generally be a bit over suspicious at times, but the apps definitely struck me as off very early on. As to charging men, while it does suck, I get it. It similar to “ladies’ night” at clubs (do they still do that?). It isn’t hard to get men in the door, but it is significantly harder to get women to attend, oftentimes due to some of the behaviors exhibited by the men. With the gender differences on app usage, it would likely drive that disparity even higher if they charged women.

This whole thing is grotesque, but at the end, it says the family is having to pay for this. How and why? They should not accept responsibility for the bill. They are not the ones receiving care, and you are not liable for others’ debts unless you cosign or accept responsibility.

Bubble wasn’t around when I last engaged with dating apps, though I wouldn’t give any app the benefit of the doubt, including in any conceivable future. While there are exceptions to the rule, as you mentioned, I’d say most people will be better off without dating apps, with or without a partner.

I can’t speak to women’s experiences, but as a man, it was pretty clear that these apps were dogshit designed to steal information while keeping you engaged with bots so they can further steal from you, including financially. Much like Facebook, I was an early rejector of dating apps, and I’ve been proven correct on both fronts. From what I can tell, the tech has only gotten better at taking advantage of lonely/stupid men. While dating isn’t really a concern for me anymore, when I was actively dating, it was never difficult to meet women. It just requires a willingness to be open and accept rejection. Also, be willing to cut off interaction for relationships that aren’t healthy. It’s better to be alone than in a shitty relationship.

Remember when windows 10 was supposed to be the last version of windows? 🤣

“Antisemitism” has become a meaningless word. The only people to blame are the Israelis.

Can’t wait for that 20hr campaign while they dump all the effort into selling sharkbucks or whatever…

This is the only use of ai that I approve of. Angering Maga pissbabies.

Thank you. I am certainly no one’s property and resent that assertion completely.

What kind of degenerate intentionally had their elementary aged child wear such a hat to school, particularly knowing students from a school with a recent shooting are in attendance? The entire intention here was to create a confrontation for their child. Sounds like that home needs a visit from CPS.

I’m not sure why people downvoted instead of educating. To answer your question: no, it isn’t. It has been awhile since I’ve used torrents, so this may be a little out of date, but typically, within your P2P client you’ll have active “seeds,” including while you’re downloading. Some people immediately delete files from “active” after their download is complete. It is generally considered proper etiquette to leave the torrent active (at least) until it you have uploaded approximately 2x what you have downloaded. This helps keep torrents active and relatively quick, while not placing the bulk of the bandwidth burden on a few seeders.
