So much this. Thanks for the reminder. The fuck is Bonjour, anyway? |

It's impossible to use anonymously, and also dependent on useful network connectivity. Meanwhile, transferring a couple dozen GBs of mp3s over to an android phone is a very simple process, and the music works just fine without a login or any towers nearby. |

Questionmarktarius 02/19/18 12:08:21 PM #45 | CableZL posted... Problem here being the fact that elections are run by the states, not the federal government. No, elections are run by counties, except for that one state that calls them "parishes" instead. |

Questionmarktarius 02/19/18 11:40:17 AM #25 | CableZL posted... Let's not forget the bullshit gerrymandering taking place in many states. Can anyone give me a valid reason for a district to be drawn like this? There actually is. https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2013/06/how-the-voting-rights-act-hurts-democrats-and-minorities/276893/ In the 60s, SCOTUS pretty much mandated the creation of "majority-minority" districts, where the lines were intentionally drawn around and connecting minority neighborhoods in an attempt to nigh-mandate minority representatives. What actually happened, is that several states in the South were more than happy to oblige, and corralled all the minorities into one or two districts. |

It's literally "blacks are too poor and stupid to get a photo ID within a 4-year period, so asking them to do this is unfair and is oppressing them." He's not wrong. Benevolent racism is actually far more pernicious than the 'traditional' malevolent racism. |

Questionmarktarius 02/19/18 10:39:47 AM #10 | LanHikari10 posted... If anything, I think YouTube is going in the wrong direction. The point of YouTube was supposed to be us, just amateur creators with a simple camera to make simple neat little videos or projects, but now it's just a site where you need to have all this fancy equipment and a team and all that garbage. The spirit of YouTube was lost as the site got bigger. Youtube lost its soul when it started paying people. |

Questionmarktarius 02/18/18 12:56:39 PM #13 | Gun tech hasn't really changed much for quite a while, while new drugs cost a bucket of money in development and regulations. The reason a 1911 is called a 1911, is because that's when it was invented. |

Questionmarktarius 02/18/18 12:46:41 PM #46 | UnfairRepresent posted... I remember when Republicans hated Russia and Liberals were defending them and cooling down the hate. Defending Obama radically when he castized for 9 years straight for being "soft" and flipping out at Romney for saying Russia is the #1 Geopolitical threat. Oceania has always been at war with Eastasia. |
