The question here I guess is, which is more "evil"? No access, or censored access? I just got back from China, and having to use Bing felt wrong.
Considering censorship itself is an evil act, I think no access would be the morally right thing to accept instead of censored access. Internet going into China will be censored, and thus damaged; and so if the Internet works as intended, it will reroute itself around China.
The U.S. is not, and has never ever been a democracy. We are a republic. We do not want to ever be a democracy; and none of the founders ever declared us a democracy; so stop calling the U.S. a democracy. WE ARE NOT!!!
"To the REPUBLIC for which it stands", not "To the DEMOCRACY for which it stands."
I take it they don't teach that sort of thing in school any more?
Heck. As far as I know, the 7mm deer rifle in my closet upstairs has never killed anyone.
And the Luger that is also up there has not killed anyone since WWII. My grandpa got it off a dead Nazi. So the last person it killed was likely whoever said Nazi encountered before meeting Grandpa.:D
We have never been a democracy (mob rule). We have always been a republic.
We do not ever want to be an actual democracy. We have checks and balances in place that would be totally destroyed if we went from a republic to a democracy.
My take away from this is that no matter what you do, someone else is always going to concoct some excuse why you shouldn't do it. It's a wonder anything ever got accomplished in the past approximately 100,000 years of Human existence.
The former is just a way to get a project funded without having to go through the big established gatekeepers. The latter is a perfectly good office suite that deserves support.
I figured she was likely an attempt to get more girls reading super hero comics. Probably multiple reasons though. Doesn't have to be just one or the other.
That third one was in favor of the lower barrier to entry, with the caveat that it has the drawback of generating a bigger cesspool to sift through. But that freedom to go it your own more than makes up for it.
In other words, "You take the good; you take the bad; you take them both...etc.":)
1: They keep pissing off their established fan bases with needless changes, reboots, and retcons to appease the Butthurt Brigade.
2: Comics are just too freakin' expensive per issue for the amount and quality of content you get.
3: The barrier to entry is so low now that previously ignored but still decent talent can punch their own meal ticket. Unfortunately, that allows for a lot more total and utter shit to flood the pool. But that is less important than the ability to go it your own.
Split it? I thought it was always the "fastest" one to reach for the wallet pays. I get more free pizza that way (Surprised J. Wellington Wimpy never used that line).:)
In short if there is demand for a product there will be a market for it. You can try to setup social rules or actual laws, but just as long people want it, it will be available.
Everyone wants THE BOMB. Where can they pick one up? Asking for a friend.
Many Quickie Marts carry them, with the other frozen nukable stuff. Then again, I don't think I could get myself to eat a burrito called The Bomb. You know that has to be a warning of near future "problems".
I must be old because I had never heard of venmo until now. Fucking mellinials.
So do we put you down in favor of fucking millenials or against fucking millenials?:p
Sounds like this Joel Guerra is just another little shitlord who jizzes himself at the idea of disrupting anything he can get his Cheeto dust encrusted hands on.
But without ADHD meds, how will Space Shire Seven become a reality?
Ah well, got access to better stuff legally. Going to try Strawberry Fields tomorrow. Normally $100 an ounce, on sale at $80, and if I calculated correctly, after military discount (retired) should be $72.
I'm guessing that would have been valid for the time due to taxonomy being a relatively young and emerging field, so that any creepy crawly thing was considered an insect.

Can we call that Astroturfer's Corollary to Ben Franklin, or something like that? :D
That is actually a pretty good addition.

With penis
With vagina
The rare instance with both
What are the others?
It would be fucking hilarious you emotionless aspie wannabe.

How is Kickstarter or Libre bad?
The former is just a way to get a project funded without having to go through the big established gatekeepers. The latter is a perfectly good office suite that deserves support.
And your explanation of why?
I vote for the XNope.
And if that wasn't bad enough, we were also inundated with the lad, lass, dog, and "other" versions as well (Batmite for example as an other).
Or do we not speak of Batmite?
The difference is that it became a regular schtick with her.
I figured she was likely an attempt to get more girls reading super hero comics. Probably multiple reasons though. Doesn't have to be just one or the other.
And she did 4th wall long before Deadpool. :D

Just because you call some chick thor, or some chick iron man, or some chick hulk...
Hey! Don't go dragging Miss Walters into this, at least the Byrne and earlier era She Hulks, or me SMASH puny Human. :)

He was referring to Darwin calling them insects.

Imagine what a living hell immortality would be in the aeons leading up to the heat death of the universe, or the Big Rip, or whatever... and beyond.
