That’s fair… Both would really do it

No one suggested Delhi belly?? Just eat a bunch of raw chicken, bro

(This is terrible advice)

ASStocrats, maybe!

Bumzit might’ve been more acturate?

That’s an exceptional pasta - well-worded!

Do you mind if I steal it?

Thanks, that was really interesting!

In NZ we’ve had a huge blast for a long time about the damage of the suns rays, particularly UBA and UVB so tend to be pretty careful about sunscreen - I wonder how that plays into it

The trouble with mood-altering and mood-stabilising medications (and behaviours if you count things like exercise) is that they can affect perception not only in the present, but about past thoughts and behaviours too, so spotting any obvious change might require some effort.

Thank you!! That a powerful description of what I’ve had going on for years - I’m a very emotional thinker and can sometimes feel adrift on things (with no perspective) as the thinking patterns and brain chemicals change replacing the lense I experience everything through

I’m not OP but loving your response!

Could or be, perhaps, that you are indeed a twat?

Damn, there goes my retirement scheme!

I didn’t know about their AOSP contributions, cheers!

Agree on the kernel anti cheat, but those games always seemed unsatisfying, personally

It’s an exciting opinion piece, sure but with the vacuous way everything is organised its impossible for anyone who can competently hold the reins to retain power for any length of time - and that requires someone who can competently lead which seems almost impossible to find in this stupid era.

These are structural challenges requiring massive expenditure over _generations_that are needed to succeed. It’s a perfect example of the extended sequel “this is not fine” comic - not sure I got that link right.

The old one, for sure

Yeah, but after the rootkit fiasco, would you really want to?

Its a real shame the handset market is completely fucked and void of creativity

Eventually that insoluble fiber becomes soluble, right?

One part of this is jurisdiction. I’m being very simplistic here and only have a vague sense of the picture, really (my own prejudice - I find just about everything about meta abhorrent)

They are based in a country that’s solely oritentated towards liberty - not fairness or common sense.

There are other parts, of course, like lobbying, tax breaks and so on, but a big part is because they’re not based in the EU.
