I don’t use Xitter, what functionality does it have that’s not stupidly easy to implement? As far as I can tell the only thing that Xitter has is a userbase - and when they drive them away they’ll have nothing [but debt].

Rip the bandaid off! Get this shit closed down and be done with it.

Despite Elon’s best efforts

It was pointless, which is a reason to have not taken them, but they’re back now so it’s kind of a moot point. Just a “don’t do it again” situation.

Do you commemorate all the other atrocities?

You would think so, but companies generally believe that they own the right to your full potential output - not just the tasks that they set you.

To be fair, this is hardly a plan, it’s just “head north to your nearest Canadian city”

Yeah, the house I grew up in had so many frogs that you couldn’t watch TV or make a phone call at night, it was like having the worst tinnitus every night. Frogs are cute, but that was too much!

You don’t get kids from the asshole…

And depending on where you are the biological parents may be able to reclaim them at some point. My sister looked into it in my country and determined that they never really became your children, you were just taking care of them until they either grew up or their parents came back for them. I can’t imagine taking care of a child for years, treating it like your own, and then a stranger just coming and taking it back (and possibly taking it into a terrible environment).

All the adopted kids I grew up with were adopted from overseas and now I understand why.

He won’t say that - he’s incapable of telling the truth.

Humanity is a shithole. Social media is a cross-section.

Fuck the Olympics. This stinks of a way to sterilise the city of anything that isn’t new, shiny, plasticky, shit. Let them stay.

I actually really liked season four in its original format - where you saw the story from one person’s perspective and then later saw it from another’s. The way the story lines intertwined was really good IMO. If you watch it now then you get the recut version where it’s all in chronological order and it’s just weak.

Depending on the jurisdiction, you never had those rights. In Australia anyone is free to take your picture in (or from) a public space. The only issue is when that photo is used to damage the subject - and that is done under defamation laws. In the US the photographer owns the rights to a photograph unless there are other contractual stipulations - even if you are the subject of the photograph.

Just as long as their were no photos of the birth

I personally only store things that are hard to get again. Things like obscure domestic TV and really old movies. If it’s something I can get again easily then I watch and delete.

I think I still have irc logs somewhere. I can probably safely delete them now.

I don’t think those are strictly correct. There’s no way Brisbane has 250k subscribers. The population of the city is only about 2 million and the channel isn’t that active.

Discord is pretty similar to IRC 25 years ago: just a constant stream of conversations and you’re SOOL if you miss anything.
