i was shocked when I found out that The New York Times wasnโt a clock and watch fan forum for New Yorkers.
A train that has a stop somewhere in my neighbourhood.
Yikes, thatโs an ugly looking turn of phrase. I guess Iโm blocking another racist.
If you can't or don't want to root the phone and install your own de-Googled Android rom then you could get an Android phone designed for mainland China, which will come with all of the Google stuff already removed.
Genuinely good films: 4,6,2,8
Ok but flawed films: 1,3,9,5,7
Derivative and unnecessary, but sometimes charming films: 11,13
Very few redeeming qualities and should never have been made: 10,12
Yes it absolutely does.
If anything, they probably have a pretty ok reason for thinking that there is at least some kind of safety net, because in 1975 when they last had to use it there was one.
Copyright infringement is absolutely the moral thing to do in quite a lot of cases. For example, for the preservation of cultural works. Corporations aren't exactly spending their money on proper archives and the people to curate them. Quite the opposite! For example, if some or all of the lawsuits against sites like archive.org are successful then the result could be a mass erasure of cultural works on the scale of the burning of the Library of Alexandria.
I'm not sure if you should be arguing against the metric system because it was applied top-down across Europe by Napoleon, considering the history behind how the imperial system was spread to what is now the USA. I mean, it's literally called the imperial system.
I'm trying to be delicate, but the misguided rhetoric you are advocating is commonly used to justify violent, psychopathic, and misogynistic behaviour. You need to stop thinking of human social relationships as transactional. They are not. You could really hurt someone if this is genuinely what you believe.
Yes, you might want to speak to a psychologist or psychotherapist before you do something that you may later come to regret.
Please take this as friendly advice: you appear to be describing a dangerous view of social relationships and this could get you in some potentially very serious trouble with the people around you. Please, do not treat your relationships with other people as transactional.
These pretzels are making me thirsty.
No it wouldn't become subject to the same law. A new and different law would be required. But that's wildly hypothetical, given the differences between an open distributed system and a massive private corporation.
Also, human behaviour and social interactions are seldom quite so transactional.
I really don't understand the people who (on an open source social media platform of all places!) rush to defend Meta/Facebook on bill C-18. Any action taken against Facebook's power in society, no matter how flawed, is inherently good.
