The feature is texting replies during a call that are read out to the caller.

Well duh, you always (short term) make more money (short term) when you're paying fewer employees (short term)! And those (short term) gains will look really good in the future ex-CEO's resume (and bank account)!

He's absolutely right; it's a fundamentally Republican feature to allow an extremist minority to control everyone else. The electoral college gives republicans a huge advantage in presidential elections, for example, and now we see that the Freedom Caucus, a very small cadre of right wing extremists, can exert it's will over the entire 435-member Congress. Instead of compromise, a handful of wackos elected a guy who swore to "fight vigorously with the Democrats."

I dunno, if my VPN came out and said "heads up, one of our servers was seized and you have literally nothing to worry about because nothing is stored or logged on our servers," that's good news IMO. Obviously the best case scenario is not having it seized, but sometimes that's not possible, and it's a mark of a good VPN when the consequences to you of a server being seized are the same as if it wasn't (i.e., none).

I mean, apparently. The brain is so weird, it's really really difficult to even imagine what it's like to experience certain things that other people do. For example, sometimes people have their corpus callosum (the membrane between the hemispheres that allows them to communicate with each other) severed to prevent certain types of seizures, and afterwards they lose the ability to see "green men" as faces.

For reference, this is what a "green man" is:

Can you, who easily sees the face, really even understand what it would feel like to look at that image and not see a face?

Fuck Apple, let the man speak.

Do you ever feel just about something?

TLDR, Australia is passing strict anti-protest laws and the police are bought by oil giants.

Yeah, this is dumb. Minecraft is fun and they should definitely add all 3 mobs

But that completely defeats the purpose! (which is the racism)

Very informative but you see, science doesn't convince the anti-science crowd, pretty much by definition.
