Have you been under a rock? It’s been months and someone (usually me) comments about it in almost every post.

From the comments, I’m guessing there’s a bear in this imgur blocked picture?

I don’t think I’ve had a locked phone since around 2012.

I’m guessing people still get them because they need financing? Seems like a poor choice most of the time.

I genuinely said “beep boop” in this scene and she did not appreciate the joke. 😂

Playing through Persona 3 Reload at the moment. Not come across this gem yet but I have come across this:

I need more comments to guess what’s in this Imgur post, damnit!

Guessing what a Imgur post is about based on the comments, day 2:

Something about someone spraying people with water. Maybe a prank?

Still better than the Cass Review.

In the UK the calculus is quite different, as it’s £0.25/kWh or over double the cost.

Also, an empty Synology 4-bay NAS can be gotten for like £200 second hand. Good enough if you only need file hosting. Mine draws about 10W compared to an old Optiplex that draws around 60W.

With that math using the NAS saves you 1.25 pence per hour. Therefore the NAS pays for itself in around about 2 years.

Just watched Grapes of Wrath and that’s basically the vibe of the movie.

As much as I don’t like a lot of things done by America (or most countries for that matter), this is kind of cringe?

… Ah, ok. Then jobs must pay that and then some, right?

Right?

More proof that the current “Labour” government is in the pockets of rich companies and not on the side of consumers.

I have a PC USB Blu-ray drive, and bought a backup one last year just in case this one dies.

Backing up Blu-rays and watching them on your device.

Unlike with music, you can’t buy DRM-free Blu-ray quality movies outside of Blu-ray. If you stream a show or movie, even if you have “bought”, you don’t own it.

Receiving a cease and desist email from your ISP on behalf of rights holders for something you have torrented is almost a right of passage for a young person imo.

Makes you learn to always use a VPN, especially on popular torrents (all it takes is one snooper in the seeds).

Reading your source, it sure sounds like genocide.

That said, it seems like a summary rather than a detailed report and I can’t find the source in the page.

The other people responding to you are saying “did you read the statement by the perpetrators of the genocide denying it?” Sounds like a rather silly statement.

Can’t really weigh in on this but on the face of it it does feel like tankie behaviour.

EDIT: I’ve now skimmed the UN Human Rights report and it’s definitely genocide. The only possible claim against this is that all of their information is false, which seems unlikely.

I’ll also add that the first response above linking to the UN source I’ve seen copy pasted elsewhere. That doesn’t necessarily mean much but, yeah.

I may not like many of what I know of China’s policies (genocide, suppression of free speech etc.), but this is one of the things they have done well.
