elbarto777,

You’re quite graceful. You’re welcome!

elbarto777,

Buttons that you can manipulate without opening your eyes at night. Yes, please.

elbarto777,

I can activate Google Assistant and ask it to tell me the time.

(No, I don’t like Google Assistant to constantly listen for a wake-up word. I had two previous bad experiences with that.)

elbarto777,

Mid-40s here. You’re probably in a dry spell. But it shall pass, friend.

elbarto777,

Yeah, but why George Lucas? I know the prequels weren’t the best, but has he done anything else after them that you’d say is worse?

And the Disney sequels can’t be it since he wasn’t directly involved…

elbarto777,

Why?

elbarto777,

I bet. I’m assuming taxes are way higher up there too.

elbarto777,

Oh okay. That, I understand. I thought that incorporating bluetooth also compromised the sound quality of the wired output as well.

Why do you have to conceal what you do? You can stop time, for crying out loud. That’s almost unlimited power.

You see a bunch of law enforcement run to you, you can easily get the fuck out - with all their guns and car keys.

Edit: if you downvote me, then it’s a good thing you don’t have this power, for you would waste it unnecessarily.

elbarto777, (edited )

Thanks for the doofus correction. Whoops.

Puerto Rico treatment

Hm. I guess.

I had no idea that you could download movies from the 90ies from archive.org (jeena.net)

I couldn’t find the Flintstones movie from 1994 anywhere but googling it I found it here archive.org/details/the-flintstones_202304 and you can either download it via torrent or directly. On top of it it says that the movie is CC0 which means Public Domain. But that can’t really be, it’s only 29 years old....

Leave Texas and other Draconian states and risk getting pulled over for driving pregnant? Nope, just have the pills mailed from California. (www.cbsnews.com)

California Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a new law on Wednesday that aims to stop other states from prosecuting doctors and pharmacists who mail abortion pills to patients in places where the procedure is banned. California already has a law protecting doctors who provide abortions from out-of-state judgments.

elbarto777,

I find it ironic that you mentioned cvs for your example.

A surf store, or a clothing store works be better examples.

elbarto777,

I find it hard to believe too. I’ve seen mini sunscreen bottles being given away in events. We’ll need a source for this.

elbarto777,

I see what you mean now. I think the parent poster is referring to the effectiveness of the American made sunscreen.

elbarto777,

Enough with the notre damme spam. The news were so annoying when it occurred. As if the cure for cancer was lost in the fire.

elbarto777,

Friend, I appreciate your mod efforts, and I support 100% what you’re doing here.

Having said that, I think there is a misalignment in terms of free speech definitions.

What I think you’re saying is that people are free to express themselves, and the government (in the U.S., Italy, Argentina, wherever) will not censor you for that. However, a consequence of that is that you can ban them. Fair enough.

But people are not referring to the free speech in the country, region or whether. They’re specifically referring to the exercising of free speech in the community you are moderating. You’re saying that “there is free speech here,” then it follows that transphobic comments should be allowed (something I wouldn’t like because fuck transphobes.) But since you remove comments that don’t align with the community, then the community doesn’t have free speech - and that’s okay. I’m just referring to the contradiction: “you’re allowed to say what you want, but I will ban you if you say this or that” - welp, that just means that “this or that” is not allowed.

I think that’s what the other commenters are saying. They’re not criticizing you for removing comments. They’re calling out that removing comments (as a consequence of speech) and claiming that there is free speech, well no, technically it isn’t.
