Yeah Christians in the 1990s–and a bit after-- got pretty upset about “damn” and “hell”. Kids used to say “H E double hockey sticks”.

I’m sure they’re so sad to see those colonizers leave.

She has since asked for the image to no longer be used, “I retired from modeling a long time ago. It’s time I retired from tech, too. We can make a simple change today that creates a lasting change for tomorrow. Let’s commit to losing me.”

The vast majority of South Korean 19 - 34 year olds describe the country as hell.

“The survey found that 79.1% of young women and 72.1% of young men want to leave Korea, that 83.1% of young women and 78.4% of young men consider Korea “hell””

Adding IPv6 would cost them money. Probably a relatively small amount of money, but still money. They get nothing from that investment. As long as they have IPv4 addresses to assign to their customers, there’s basically no demand for IPv6 addresses. NAT and UPnP work fine for just about everyone. I think the only way we see serious IPv6 adoption in North America and Europe is government mandates.

Why do reactionaries always make us look so awesome?

It’s a good show. I just finished it. As for the politics of it, the show isn’t Marxist despite its anger at the super rich.

The show makes a number of mistakes in its analysis of the world. Firstly, it acts as though the problems of Capitalism began in the 1980s. We know that Capitalism has always been horrific. The show also falls for the Great Men Fallacy. At one point we see all of the the bad, rich people who run the world in a room together. Capitalism is more pervasive than that. The guy who owns a fast-food franchise is just as much a Capitalist as a CEO. These mistakes work for the themes of the show, however. It is a show about hacking and conspiracies. In reality, a group of super hackers can’t expose the big bads who rule the world and steal their money, but it does make for an entertaining show.

It seems like it can run Android apps through a compatibility layer as well.

Light Yagami is the protagonist of Death Note. He discovered a notebook that lets him kill anyone by writing their name in the book (technically he needs to mentally picture their face too).
