I'm confident they were just looking for a reason after Colbert. Seth Meyers better use his last few weeks before he gets pinched to come up with a contingency plan, cus this is a fucking crackdown.

Man, I saw that woman make a speech in honor of her husband and it sounded exactly like me giving a book report on a book I absolutely did not read because my brother rented Final Fantasy Tactics and I needed to finish it before it went back to Blockbuster.

This right here is the power of political cartoons in one example - like no other medium, it can just go right on up to it. God DAMN. Your magnum opus Lalo.

It's a real dumb idea but I'll be honest, I think all of us should have expected that when Chrome switched to an engine that doesn't allow for ad blockers.

I'm with the rest of the commenters on other threads — I'll just switch to PostmarketOS and make Linux work for me. Very little of what I do on a phone really requires "apps."

if you ask me, mushrooms are a bullshit double standard. THEY get to show their genitals to passing hikers in the state park, but when I do it, suddenly everyone gets real prudish? What’s THAT about?

i had signed up to see if I am a match, which i would have donated if i had been selected. please show me where i mentioned actually donating bone marrow.

i actually knew one of these powerusers in the early 2010s. he had leukemia, and i signed up to be a match to donate spinal marrow for him. i visited him in the hospital a bunch. he hasn't acknowledged me since. that was a real bummer, but, i tend to see friends where they don't exist so that might be on me.

i am a little bummed that i got permabanned just because i was so close to all of the reddit founders and early employees. i personally prevented alexis from getting arrested for trying to openly smoke weed on the street in pittsburgh when it was still the kind of thing that got you put in prison for a few years if your skin is darker than popcorn.

steve huffman in particular is a shitter and always has been. think of that kid you knew growing up who would make up that his dad worked at SEGA and that Goku was going to be in the next Sonic game — that's spez, still, to this day. he is "mr. namedropper." steve, genuinely, i do not care that you saw Beyoncé at the airport.

ETA: since people are being weird about phrasing, i signed up to be a match. his alias back then was Dacvac. i literally sat in bars and watched him mod /r/pics on an iPad. believe me or don't, i'm just some schmoe online after all.

AI photography is so stupid. That target's got legs. Handsome ones, too.

so the media doesn’t know where they’re going and report on their treatment or conditions, or, hell, who was even in the groups deported.

FWIW, this is why AI researchers have been screeching for decades not to create an AI that is anthropomorphized. It is already an issue we have with animals, now we are going to add a confabulation engine to the ass-end?

Honestly it's a little staggering how much better web video got after the W3C got fed up with Flash and RealPlayer and finally implemented some more efficient video and native video player standards.

<video> was a revolution.
