We speak of the Wild West as “lawless”. I assure you there were very much laws against murder and theft then. They just had sporadic enforcement. Much as roads and highways are in many parts of the country. In California I see racing, 100mph driving, weaving like mad. In the ride home from the airport I watched teenagers race and crash. Drunk driving all over wine country. Never once saw anyone like this pulled over.

Bots, or people who think like them.

OK, glad to do so if given the option. Is this an offer? Are you campaigning?

Something tells me you can’t believe this nonsense you’re spewing. You’re attributing the greatest economic boom the world has ever seen, not to being the sole winner and survivor of WWII, but because the borders were tightened. You must be a troll.

Yes, we will lose our first amendment rights if people can’t get rich off of telling obvious lies and slander against grieving parents. Look at yourself in the mirror and try again.

Right, because the definition of “wealthy elite” is making $100k/yr.

Can you please elaborate? I find myself making up reasons why but I am certainly wrong.

“Just rely on another government’s strict regulations and illegally create a business around it so you can get a few durable items oh and stop complaining about government regulation.”

If the neanderthals could have detected it in utero they probably would have done the same.

How about we don’t do that? And if it indeed starts getting cold, we regroup?

Care to elaborate?

May have gotten the hug of death.

Curious to see if this conviction continues with any election fraud. I hear that a lot but sounds like this was a cut and dry hush money case.

[Insert quote about casting the first stone]

I get it, and never post that. In this case, due to conflicts of interest, I think it is justified.

This article is a paid hit-piece. Trumpian language and all: “people are saying—very good people, the best people—that the voice wasn’t copied. It was a perfect call.” It is so obvious that her voice was stolen, and they are paying to try to cover it up.

Ask it for an image or for some text. Then cross-check. Many times you can see: it doesn’t make stuff up, it steals and remixes. Same thing here.

Pop goes the weasel.

You seem very sure about this.

No kidding. I get the sentiment but the argument doesn’t hold water. A scam is a scam. There are big scams and small. There are lies big and small too. We can even call the small ones white lies. But they are still lies.

Is this the same google that raised money under the motto “don’t do evil”?

Got any others?

Care to share a specific example?

123% of statistics are made up on the spot.

Strange hill to die on. Lots of people scam by expecting to right their wrongs in the end. Hell even Theranos may have believed with enough scam money they could eventually have made right with the tech. Still a scam. Same here. If it’s not what you’re selling, it’s a lie, and a lie is a scam.

Exactly. Why are there so many people trying to talk themselves into a corner?

What does ffmpeg do that AVFoundation does not?

Yet a drug—that people willingly and optionally take as opposed to this—must be proven NOT to create harm before it is allowed in the wild. Your argument sounds like it is in bad faith.
