I usually just wet my pants to avoid touching my own penis so I don’t get perceived as gay. Shit, I just used the word perceived. Gay af.

If they were due to expire, all together, that would be odd, but not necessarily an issue. The article points to them not advertising the expiration, like they do for other films. Surely the filmmakers can comment on that if its odd.

It would be quite disappointing from Netflix to do so after they were ambivalent about other controversial topics like comedy specials with bigoted views that were offensive to many. They claimed to make no judgement on content but make it available for people to decide.

The meme is saying that Israelis rights to the land dont override the rights of other peoples, like the Palestinians. Its pointing out that many who think Israel are doing nonwrong would not be infavour of native Americans bombing their cities, or even giving up their land.

As a foreign born person, now living in Australia with Australian citizenship, Australia has undoubted racism, including casual racism, institutional racism and blatant bigotry. However, viokent hate crimes are much more rare. Australians are generally welcoming, even to those they hold outdated racist views against. Its not people in masks lighting crosses on lawns. Its people being friendly with foreigners at work but never making friends with them, despite doing the same with white coworkers. Its having neoghbours whobyou are friendly with and borrow tools from each other but still roll your eyes as they dont eat bacon, son you couldn't possibly invite them over for a barbecue as your potato salad has bacon bits on top. Its denying original Australians a voice in the Parliament.

However, China has a much bigger problem with racism where there is purposeful genocide. However, China's criticism rings true, because it is.

Australia can and will do better as most peopke dont want to be racist. There is a fringe far right element, like most western countries but its not the norm. I thibknchina will also do better as their exposure to other cultures and peoples increases.

Yes, I expect there eventually will be more than one forum and/or plugin repository, depending on where you use WordPress. Its not really WordPress providing the support, more the community, but they host it.

Even self hosting, thenplug ins directory and updates etc seem to be where they have stopped wp engine access. It is still open for other websites but could be cut off if they chose.

From what ive read, manual upload of a plugin still works, so its just removing convenience and auto update. I doubt its long before a fork or plug in offers identicsl functionality.

I have a ps5. I dont think I'll ever buy another console thats not a PC. I want to keep my library. I want a choice of places to buy games. I want no subscription for basic services. Consoles solved a problem that running high end games with specialized hardware was cheaper. Now its not, so they dont make financial sense.

I would assume my next games machine will be a steam deck type device that works like a switch for big screen, or that just streams over WiFi to my TV.

What does it say?

Dude!

Reminds me of the movie without the car.

Band camp.

Similar movie, with some of the same actors.

DC++ It was just sharing stuff. No search. You connect to someone’s computer, they have a shared folder. You download what you want and move on. Instead of searching for stuff, you discovered it.

Yes, which existed at the time but was not a commonly used phrase. I dont know that it had even been coined by that point.
