If your only argument is “I deserve things that took a lot of time and effort for free” then you aren’t getting much sympathy from me.

American politics: multifaceted attempt to subvert democracy and overthrow the government, run for second term
Scandinavian politics:

I just have trouble believing that the probably thousands of people both government and private involved in such programs that no doubt exist across every major power on earth (unless for whatever reason UFOs choose to only fly around and crash into the continental US) have all managed to stay quiet about something of this magnitude for decades (or damn near 100 years if his claim of it starting in the 1930s is to be believed)

Not to mention that, simultaneously, the government(s) is powerful enough to successfully suppress this information for a hundred years, while some how also failing to keep somebody from testifying about it in a publicly televised congressional hearing

Zelle still takes a few days to complete transfers in my experience

Yeah I could definitely tell that "urban problems" was supposed to be a racist dogwhistle

Get back to me when we've corrected the last 30 years of wage stagnation too

Being able to show off a game or watch a movie with friends (without needing to mess with Virtual Audio Cables so there's no weird echo from their voices) in as little as 2 mouse clicks is the single killer feature Discord has that will make it incredibly hard for me to replace

notices your haptic feedback shirt OWO what's this

There's no way on earth that a haptic feedback shirt made by a company called OWO wasn't intended to be marketed at furries in VRchat lmao

Police and military please, either citizens can handle more than 10 round magazines or they can't, the state shouldn't have a monopoly on them

The only time I ever forget is if something goes awry (like I find out my shampoo bottle is empty and have to pause the shower to get more), causing ShowerAutopilot.exe to crash and behave in strange unintended ways

I wish they would stop calling standard capacity rifle magazines "high capacity" to try to play them up as being in some way unusual

10 rounds isn't even really standard for pistols, basically every full size pistol comes with a magazine larger than that (for reference, the most common US police duty pistols, the Glock 19 and 22, come from the factory with 15 round magazines), smaller than that and you're getting into compacts that are meant to be more easily concealable (which itself has its own risk)

I'm fine with restrictions that make sense, but trying to say that full size pistols (with magazines >10 rounds) are "high capacity" and "not commonly used for self defense" is just patently false

Worst internal connector by far is dual USB3, the cable is so thick and unwieldly, I always feel like the pressure from trying to bend it is going to rip the header off the board

Sometimes I finish showering, and I was so heavily on autopilot while thinking about other things that I have no memory of if I actually washed my body or not, I just trust that I did

Those are actually just devices that won't work in 5 years

It's free widespread advertisement for cloudflare, we're even talking about them right now

The .ee must stand for European Eunion

It always feels difficult to justify spending so much on other brands when a Samsung phone from 2 years ago will have reduced to a quarter of its retail price simply due to their oversaturation of the used market

I don't like the idea of restricting ourselves to the capitalistic idea that labor is some how the only source of value in our world, especially when something like sufficiently advanced AI and robotics has the real potential to reduce the value of human labor to zero

I hope in the future works can be judged purely on their artistic or educational value alone

I feel like things created by AI are transformative enough that it's hard to argue that the resultant works inherently infringe on any copyrights by the very nature of how they were created
