It’s making ADP into ATP iirc, right?

So you stole it? How dare you! You wouldn’t kidnap a child!

Depends on your position on that. Special military operation to give Christmas back its rightful place in the year.

The war on Christmas…

Isn’t Al Gore vs Bush an even better example?

Sure, there are ways but I honestly don’t see the benefit now that streaming is fast. I want to watch a movie or series once and don’t need to own it, especially since I can restream it or download it from the streaming site

It was the goto streaming site back then. We all learned out lesson once it was down. I looked it up and it was online from 2008 to 2011, feels longer for me but I was torrenting alot before that. German law is strict on torrenting so streaming is the way to go here.

Your analysis fits neatly into what the book Because Internet describes as different waves of “internet people”. First were geeks who went there before it was mainstream, second us millennials growing up as it is getting mainstream, alongside older folks forced to use it at work or voluntarily at home. Third wave are GenZ growing up when everything is easy already and, ironically, also even older folks now that it’s accessible for them.

Your child will thank you for this!

Boy, I remember how desperate all of Germany was when kino.to went down. It took at least a week until everyone found an alternative!

Don’t remind me of that… but you are right thought, I did fall victim to one of the classic blunders

Remindes me of when I, a fool, fell victim to one of the classic blunders

I get what you are doing here but I think you are misled. The police has a monopoly on violence to protect the state apparatus and the ruling class. Protecting normal citizens is a means to an end of that, it never was the goal. The US police originated in a force that brought back run away slaves. Are we talking about run away slaves? Is there private property at risk? Is the school shooter threatened any organ of the state? So why bother? TLDR ACAB

i think you might have dropped your “/s” homie.

Damn, I really thought I didn’t need it. It kind of ruins the joke and I thought I made it clear enough

You should be careful! I mean this sounds logical, but taken to the extreme, it would mean that you judge people who are racist and actively support genocide even though they are always nice to you (assuming you are white). Do you really want that?

You mean without the strong police, there would be an upcoming rebellion by the schoolkids?

Reminds me of the Lingthusiasm episode where the Canadian and the Australian hosts discuss a book about the differences between British and American English. Both fell somewhere in between

Sane

Sure you do
