Full stop

No

I was being sarcastic while making fun of an uneducated republican base.

Let's just put in a literacy test to disenfranchise the Republican base.

Is this true or horse shit? Just curious? I err to horseshit cuz it's Facebook, but the author is very engaged that she did research and used multiple sources to every claim lol.

They had a public spat over real estate and fell out of favor with one another. Nothing else is corroborated anywhere.

Sure I have. You just threw out 1% of the elderly are gonna die with no rational explanation with your usual covid fearmongering you normally do to try and refute it somehow.

Its not fearmongering, we are in the middle of a pandemic and you just called for a superspreader situation for voting.

Also fingerprint technology is not as good enough to handle an entire population besides that.

The system is just not designed to accommodate a 3rd party. It takes a very specific climate for 3rd party candidates to win even local elections, let alone enough to have a sizeable base, and you know as well as I do that your suggestion is impossible.

Sure, but less impossible than winning at a national level. And far less damaging.

Don't think it's quite as consistent on quality as Gravity Falls but the show is good.

Also already has a second season confirmed.

I have zero idea how this stimulus thing pans out now.

Well, the deadline was... Yesterday.

So who knows.

My guess is they saw we're in the beginning of what will likely be a long downswing with the virus and lost the sense of urgency.

Why do I want to buy endless disney stock

There are people like me desperate for the pandemic to end/subside so that we can throw thousands of dollars at various disney properties. That is why you should own Disney stock.

That's the problem, you can't. Especially in those first couple sections the slime rides so quickly you only get like one chance to make your jumps

There are 3 or 4 different ways to make the opening jumps.

It is definitely the section with the most risk but you absolutely can fail once or twice and still make it.

Slime Climb with high numbers is the only way it becomes challenging.

PS grab people as they step in front of a push block.

Is your outside unit spinning?

More specifically, outside is spinning, fans in the system are running, but air is not cooling.

Should have been $20 for D+ users and $30 for non. You limit your market so drastically not giving non-users an option and coulda made D+ users feel special and more likely to get it.

Its a ploy to woo more d+ subs

Great.

Tiktok is trash and its really not great what the children who use it are exposed to.

How is this different than the rest of the internet?

What precisely do you think they are doing then? You haven't given me a straight answer here.

Like, you seem very convinced they are doing something but unable to articulate what that is. Perhaps you've been the victim of government propaganda/disinformation from the US?

I have expanded on this in multiple posts now.

What a bizarre thing to demand. How is China more dangerous to me?

Trump is literally President right now.

There's also a lot of misinformation and misunderstandings on how targeted advertising works. I

They aren't really after targeted advertising.

I'm sure they involved in that a bit.

I think you are projecting your own field into this when that isn't necessarily what China would be after here. Their campaign has evolved way beyond targetted advertising.

Another aspect of the information war is the ability to keep up with trends to be able to fake being American.

Its not just about you, but them bring able to fake being like you.

VintageGin posted...

Maybe I'm desensitized to privacy concerns because I work in internet advertising, but I'm a little skeptical of TikTok's danger to national security.

It made sense when something similar happened to Grindr last year, but I don't think TikTok poses the same inherent risk.

You definitely seem desensitized. There is a huge (mis) information campaign being waged daily. It's very effective. It is part of the reason our covid response is so bad.

ChaosTonyV4 posted...

But in the long run its completely meaningless if we dont pass legislation to protect us from other non-governmental groups as well.

Sure, they should.

Now walk back the idea that somehow China isnt more dangerous than the United States.

Also i think people don't realize the extent that we are quite literally in an essential cold war with China and Russia. And that war is primarily being fought over the internet.

The information they collect, which is basically full blanket access to your internet usage can easily be utilized to allocate what is a very vast interference and propoganda campaign on social media.

The more info they have, the better they can understand how to influence American's and basically sow more seeds of chaos.

VintageGin posted...

What information do you believe they're gathering, and how do you believe they are able to use that to nefarious ends?

We automatically collect certain information from you when you use the Platform, including internet or other network activity information such as your IP address, geolocation-related data (as described below), unique device identifiers, browsing and search history (including content you have viewed in the Platform), ...

It goes on but I'm too lazy to click the link.

And no, I don't support this action because the government reasoning is not just.

But to pretend China having more information on US citizens is not something unusually dangerous or sinister is also naive.

ChaosTonyV4 posted...

Like dont take this as a defense of China, but if youre living in the United States, the US government and info being harvested by private companies has far more impact on your life than your profile and likes on TikTok, these are just facts.

Sure, but only one of those allows a foreign entity to interfere with elections in the United States.

concept art I guess? So it's an image from the production of the movie?

Yes

There doesn't appear to actually be an image from the movie here.
