I'd never watch something you're not into. It's just miserable to force yourself to watch a show you don't like. Juat because you read a manga doesn't mean you should or need to watch its anime.

To help with smell in the washer we keep the liquid soap tray open after we finish using it. And leave the lid open most of the time. It seems to keep humidity down and the smell went away almost instantly.

Because franchise owners can do whatever they want with the sign. But it's also important to remember that the Dave Thomas Foundation donates to a lot of anti-lgbt groups. They're big on the whole Christianity as a means to hate others thing.

Maybe a cynical outlook, but 'AI' becoming such a big deal is only going to serve as a means to take out the human element. Why have a person narrate or write your nature show when you can have 'AI' mimic a known quantity.

O'Brian and he's here to suffer. I mean transporter work. And suffering.

It goes beyond tax money, but that's a part of it for sure. Gambling in the USA at least helps prop up the 'American Dream' by keeping the under privileged poor and in-debt. Because at any minute they could become mega rich! Except they won't especially as the addiction will tell them to double down and make them lose it all.

Just more monopolies coming I'd wager. Disney is supposedly looking at buying EA. Microsoft and Sony have shown they both would rather buy companies and consolidate studios over how it was before.

As others have said it'll be not good for the gamer/consumer. Nor will it be good for people working in the industry.

I assume it's uBlock Origin. I have that and another one that I can't remember the name of, but it 'clicks ads' and you don't see them. I disabled uBO and left the other running. Worked fine for a few videos Sunday but Monday it was throwing the 'you can't use an ad blocker' again.

But I'd wager just about anything that affects YT on your end will throw that message at this point since they desperately want people to pay for premium or watch 3min of ads per 5min video.

Problem here is this isn't a meme. What's to comment but, 'why did you post this?'

Micrsoft's gaming head honchos were talking about making a monopoly. And it's clearly the goal. They don't care about gamers or games just hurting Sony (they said their main goal was to kill Playstation). The ActiBlizz acquire showed them they can buy anyone. Monopolies of any kind are bad, and this would be horrible.

Personal experiences will always vary too. I'm sadly a non-passing trans woman who identifies as a lesbian. Saying it's been impossible to find someone who would want to be with me is... putting it nicely. Some of that struggle is not tied into being trans, but my trans-ness is the thing they will interact with first and it has always meant they pass. But again this is just my own experience.

Same reason they put George Soros and Dr Fauci on it. Reeks of anti-vax fascist bullshit.
