You might be surprised to learn that a lot of meth smokers are into very basic glassblowing.

I've just learned about the UK internet blocks.

Is it true that torrent sites are blocked for adults and consensual BDSM like spanking is considered illegal pornography?

I can't really believe it till I hear it from a person.

I had no idea. This completely changes my view of the UK and the world suddenly seems much darker.

It's so ironic that you think they are falsely putting right-wing people on the list when historically it has been leftists to receive such treatment.

So does this version not have advertisements or something?

Wait, so using a program like wireshark to scan a network is illegal in and of itself??

I thought you had to use the information nefariously for there to be a crime.

How can receiving broadcasts be illegal?

I would strongly prefer a car with such features.

I think it's early to be adding stuff like that to government mandated driving tests when these cars are only theoretically available to the ever dwindling middle class and above. Unless my circumstances change there's no chance I'll be in one for at least 10-15 years.

I wonder, how does the autopilot safety record compare to driving in similar conditions to those which AP is typically used (open highway, good weather).

"Most people today regard America’s experiment with alcohol prohibition as a national embarrassment, rightly repealed in 1933. So it will be with the closures and lockdowns of 2020-21, someday. "

I don't think so.

Everyone seems to forget that the purpose of the lockdown was to make time to prepare enough ventilators for those that the disease would effect seriously. It definitely went on for way longer than it needed to I'm not complaining.

I also think the whole covid experience has had an overall positive effect on society. It has been a negative effect for people like landlords or businesses owners who exploited their employees.

Things have been shaken up, and the situation is still developing from that input.

This is exactly how I feel to a T. It's intangible to explained but I'm not a criminal and I'm not on probation. Apple as zero business scanning my phone for anything and I don't want that to be done.
