The only significant policy change between the two was the legalization of weed. Can’t tell me its the weed that made Harris less popular. In the end, she got my vote, where Hillary didn’t, and still lost. Decades of conservative-lite policy momentum is a helluva stank, it turns out.

Same things Hillary’s book said. No amount of reduced foreign propoganda will make up for shit policies. If the propoganda against you is spouting as many truth and lies as you are, its your own damn fault.

What Israel is doing in Gaza and the West Bank is genocide. Private Prisons and Deportation Facilities are evil. Private Healthcare is a waste of taxpayer money. Student Loans are an unconscionable trap. All of these are things Biden’s party, even Biden himself, foisted on us decades ago and continue to lie about to this day on multiple levels.

Pizza-gate was a quaint joke of a lie by comparison to the shit sandwich the DNC demands we swallowin excange for keeping the oligarchy/fascism we’ve had all along behind closed doors. So sad for you that our governments rhetoric will now openly boast about the things you’ve been comfortable with all along.

Sure, sure. The problem is not enough pandering, handouts and concessions to the ultra-rich and … checks notes … foreign enemies?

Okay, I can’t even remotely keep a straight face for that non-sense. Whatever’s replaced the fentanyl in your dealer’s weed supply, I think I might rather be dead than smoke it with you.

Unless maybe you mean China? … but if so, why repeat the “enemy” narrative?

Shut up, Hillary. You already wrote your stupid-ass book blaming everyone but yourself.

No, no he wasn’t. If he were a better president, we wouldn’t be in this predicament. The best thing he did was drop out of this race, and still, his policies left so much to be desired, that Harris lost the popular vote AND the race.

I voted Harris, by the way.

No one should be basing their “how to do it right” on a single forum comment. Talk about scope-creep for the offering of advice.

“… and God said, let us make man in our own image.”

I mean, in general, or in captivity? There is probably a huge difference.

There are many days when I feel like this, and pretty muct every day for as long as I can remember, I’ve spent some time thinking about where I should go(outside the US) if fascism wins outright here.

The most believable part of the whole thing. Standard “Tech Incubator” bullshit.

The lengths they’ll go to to refuse to admit those started as Pallets, as if anyone ever held that against them.

I almost clarified “in external form”, but you’ve really hit the nail on the head.

I’m in this comment, and I don’t like it. I still fix “computers” for a living, but when I get home, most days, the last tech I want to interact with is anything more complex than my phone.

Only problems I’ve ever had on TPB were not finding things that I could find on other sites. Then again, I don’t use Windows for either downloading or media consumption, I check torrent file lists as I’m downloading to make sure I’m not downloading anything suspect, and I’ve so far managed to catch wind of things like certain trusted uploaders getting hacked, spoofed, or just plain trying to cash-in, in-time to avoid getting worked over.

Those same users post to most of the other public sites as well, so I’m not getting where TPB is somehow particularly un-trustworthy. IME, other public sites seem to have MANY more torrents for a given search, often by orders of magnitude, so which one is really less moderated?

The REAL encouraged/discouraged is Private vs Public sites and trackers, and I’m not pretending that for all my caveats I haven’t been just plain lucky. If you download regularly at all, Private is the way to go.

Anyone who takes Dueling Banjos to mean anything has never given Sunny Came Home a good listen.

You don’t have to do geo-fencing or disallow use. Don’t distribute or ship to East Texas, and don’t do support there, warranty or otherwise, done. You’re onto something with the EULA bit, but beyond that is a burden they are not obligated to take up or impose upon grey-market customers.

Yes, but if the companies being sued don’t do business in that jurisdiction, it falls on other jurisdictions to enforce that courts’ edicts. Anyone that does so is just enabling the corruption.

Truly amazing that the legal system in the rest of the US honors and enforces their edicts, or that anyone continues to do business within their jurisdiction, for that matter.

If I were forced to choose … yes, it would be the ones that build dams just to keep everyone else away from their homes.

Also phone number and address, none of which is being exposed like so, save name and maybe birthdate.
