Meh, I knew of Fark back when all that was at the site was a single photo of a squirrel with large genitals.

I used to play on the mud Three Kingdoms in the mid '90s, and Drew was a Wizard (admin) there (named "Cletus"). When Fark became a link aggregator, I used to visit for the Photoshop contests (then ended up drifting off to Worth1000 when that became a thing). I'm not surprised that he ended up launching a porn site, because, well, Drew, but they launched a TV service that ended up getting gobbled up by Adult Swim? Weird.

Crazy to see all of the stuff that's happened with the site since I left; it entirely dropped off my radar.

For the local cops, true.

For the feds, NSL incoming!

On one hand, the only way society should accept surveillance is if it's applied to the elites first.

On the other hand, there's no way we can trust that it's being applied to the elites at all.

Therefore, there's no way we can trust surveillance at all.

Israel was proposed to get Jews out of Europe, but then the UK decided it didn't want to run that ball in because (among other reasons) T.E. Lawrence convinced them it would lead to atrocity. The US is ok with atrocities (being founded on top of them) and went ahead and completed the touchdown and has been busy spiking the ball directly into Iran ever since. If you still think the US gives two shits about Europe after refusing to enter WWII until after Pearl Harbor, I really have no idea what to say to you about that.

And you were right. I read a few of their threads and they all eventually led to crying about "woke". If the "problem" with Fark is that they now don't tolerate n-slurs, then perhaps I will give it another chance.

Kind of but not really. The IMEI number can be changed on most (all?) devices but this has gotten harder over time, and your provider has to know what it is to provide you with phone service anyway.

Yes, it's America.

Israel was founded by the US specifically for fucking up the middle east, mission accomplished.

Wondering how to get more ROI, we used it to conduct research the taxpayer wouldn't pay for here, but accepted "foreign aid" for Israel. Then we import the technology.

Yes and no. Starbucks seems dominant and they over-roast their coffee. It works well for the super sugary espresso drinks but terrible for anything else. We have every imaginable variety of coffee just like anyone else. I am drinking a perfectly normal espresso roast right now, in a cappuccino.

They also to an incident (and not almost) didn't smear shit on the walls or kill cops. Your false equivalence here is obvious support for the same child raping president you claim to not support. No one is stupid enough to buy your bullshit here.

Unless those servers are owned by Microsoft, and then they've had multiple breakins where there are no logs so they don't know what happened

Wait, that's backwards. Coming from Microsoft means we know it's malware.

Nonsense. You can ask the user to approve whole classes of action, that is still consent

A huge percentage of what's on Amazon is clearly drop shipped from AliExpress, and most of the rest of it was sourced from AliBaba. I buy the same shit from China directly for a third to two thirds of the Amazon price.

"The Commerce Department did not provide a reason for Fall's departure," reports Reuters."

These assholes clearly don't work for The People, or they would explain this shit. Who do they work for? Donnie Dipshit? Vlad?

Nobody wants this, f--k right off and vote these people out of office immediately
