    Have police finally overstepped enough that reform could happen?
  • No. Many people want cops to go Dirty Harry on all black people

    What movie did you watch as I kid which you shouldn't have?
  • I was around 7 and my much older brother convinced me to stay up until very late in the evening when the dirty softcore stuff was on tv. Must have been midnight or whatever. Finally it started... I don't know what I expected but I was like "that's it??!" It was so boring! Fell asleep a minute later.

    If you could regulate something relatively inconsequential, what would it be?
  • Hey man, why so hostile? That "nobody likes you and you have no friends" thing isn't even funny, it just makes you look like a dick

  • My rule would be the exact opposite, lol. It's proven to be safer over and over. The main reason is because you have good vision of the road and traffic when you leave, as opposed to when you have to leave in reverse.

    Mods of !news are now banning people for criticizing the MBFC bot?
  • What a shitshow. Admins and moderators are screwing up. This is completely of their own making, by doubling down on a stupid bot nobody wants.

  • You think that's all legit? I don't see permaban levels of rule breaking at all there. More admin and moderator boneheadedness causing mild irritation with users. You're asking for feedback, then ignore most of that feedback, and now ban disagreement because they're understandably frustrated with your responses.

    What does "legitimate interest" mean in cookie settings?
  • A prime example for a cookie with "legitimate interest" is a session cookie. Your shopping cart or even staying logged in wouldn't work without it, so it's not a good idea to even give the user the choice.

    Incorrect, session cookies are textbook functional cookies

    How are there so many of them
  • Dutchie who speaks German here, I hadn't heard of the word 'Zangendeutsch' before. I get what it means, but why 'Zangen'? Does it come from tongs or does it have another meaning? Tongs-German makes no sense to me

  • I was joking. Just like you can't be seriously claiming there is no consensus that the bot sucks and that all the net downvotes for that bot are due to a small minority of sockpuppeteers?

  • Right, so remove the shitty ones and don't bother everyone else with it?

  • These people were specifically trying to get the bot removed? Must have hit quite a nerve. I know it was biased in favor of Israel, but it must have been even worse. That bot sucks so bad people make mass sockpuppet accounts just to tell you they want it gone

  • Then you understand the negative reactions. Especially regarding controversial topics such as Gaza where the bot preferred sources on one side to the conflict

  • The other thread started from the assumption that the bot is useful and here to stay, even though the overwhelming feedback has been that it sucks and should be removed. It was a transparent attempt to increase support for it instead of an honest attempt at feedback. People still gave their feedback, of course, that the stupid bot should be put out to pasture.

    At least now we're seeing the bot is gone until improvements are made, the bias stuff is gone, the bot shouldn't even appear except in select cases. That's totally different than what they're saying in the other thread.
