True. But things like the UCC are real laws. Sovcits just hilariously misinterpret them. There is no such law in other countries. Plus sovcit stuff is based on common law. It makes even less sense in civil law jurisdictions.

Ahh the halcyon days of downloading one song from a private FTP server with upload ratios, found by Lycos FTP search. Over a modem, natch, so it took about 50 minutes...and that's when your mom didn't kick you off the internet so she could make a call.

You can defeat Jesus on technicalities. This is why it's always important to have a lawyer write your holy books.

This is rookie stuff. You print it out in 5 point font and bring a magnifying glass.

Amazing to learn that if you owe someone $100 and pay them $110, that's evidence of a conspiracy.

He's a billionaire the same way I'm a $10k-naire if I get a $10k cash advance from my credit card and put it in the bank.

I have root on this phone I'm using to post. I'm also running LineageOS 21.

The reason I do this is because this is my phone and I'll be in control of it. Also I want to keep my phone running as long as possible. I'm still using a Pixel 2 XL.

To be serious for a moment when people say "it's fake", they mean it's not a legitimate sporting contest. That's true...and completely misses the point. That's not what it's meant to be. It's scripted entertainment. A high school teacher who was a big pro wrestling fan said it was a "soap opera for men."

Porn isn't a legitimate sporting contest either, but it is fake in that it's staged and scripted (minus amateur stuff). It's the same scripted entertainment.

Agreed. I highly doubt these people really believe the shit they're trying to sell. They just know if you're going to grift, the best way to do it is on the right.

It's a fine picture of various platforms, but I'd have trouble calling Twitch, Discord, and YouTube "social media." Discord is basically IRC with more bells and whistles and no one ever called IRC "social media."

I run Debian and I regularly look at the Arch wiki.
