This thread is amazing.

i'm not trying to be facetious, but why are people up in arms about huawei and the children of mao doing what the NSA has been doing for decades?

Because a communist government doing spying is different from a democratically* elected one?

Wait you don't think china is serving up "fakenews"?

Chinas #fakenews is boring old domestic propaganda about how great they are, and how they can put up a city over a weekend then launch an artificial moon to provide free street lighting for it.
Its not really any different to the USSR parades of cardboard tanks to show their military superiority.

Its not Hillary Clinton trafficks children as sex slaves in a paedophile ring run from a pizza place sent directly into targetted US citizens facebook newsfeeds as sponsored advertorial to manipulate an electorate.

Like I said, if they're up to the same amount of geopolitical fuckery that the US and Russia are and at the same levels, they're really fucking good at it, because they've covered their tracks entirely and not left any evidence behind tying them to any of it.

You think that a country that has less than half of Germany‘s GDP and is between Italy and Spain in that ranking isn‘t a hegemonial power?

I get your point, but informational warfare is relatively independent of other factors, and can be asymmetric while remaining effective, like guerilla warfare in more traditional combat is.
Like, Mossad or MI5 punch way above their weight class in terms of spook power rankings versus the actual power of the state that controls them.

I'm guessing most people have figured out that Bernie is a joke. An old man that is either unwilling or unable to put much effort into learning new complex things. To me, Bernie is just a more left-leaning and generally more coherent version of Biden.

They hate Bernie so much for not sufficiently bending the knee to Yaass Queen 

You want change, get behind Elisabeth Warren not the King of Amendments.

That's been the PoliGAF approved Bernard gotcha for a couple of weeks now. "We don't have an issue with your convictions, we'd just like you support a candidate we could more easily ignore !"

If he can't get enough small donors to win the nomination, how will he get enough people to show up to the protests against Congress and the SCOTUS that he's counting on to get anything passed?

I wonder if the people in this thread trying to downplay/make fun of posters that get emotionally attached to characters realize that they don’t look cool. Cause really they just look like idiots.

The staff post is not being heeded and there are a lot of inflammatory generalizations and othering of Japan going on in here. Thread has been locked, and we will be reviewing posts for further action.

The site is completely unusable on ios safari today due to exactly the same issue I had last friday: Constant redirects (Every 10 seconds or so

I’ve given up on using the site on my phone. I get redirects 10 seconds in.

Once again I'm getting redirects. I love how we keep insisting this is a good ad partner and it's the only site I frequent with the most issues of hijacking ads.

Getting a redirect on mobile to a site that tries to force me to accept notifications.

Got maybe 10 or so redirects today asking to send me notifications.

Got this one just now and jumped to Firefox with some adblock, suggested the last time we had this outbreak.

Thanks for your cooperation in enjoying the site.

Apparently, the Yakuza used Hanafuda cards in their gambling parlors, with Nintendo being their biggest supplier.

It's REE's version of "WONT YOU THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!"

They use it for EVERY female character.

Just like their religious counterparts, they only care about children (and women) insofar as it pushes their ideology forward.

How many shit pop ups do you have to deal with before you Adblock

I whitelist tons of sites and never have this issue.

Must be those premier ad partners I hear about

[ResetBanBot]

This is some stupid fucking shit to juxtapose.

Not really.
As a non-US citizen, I'm more concerned about the foreign power with the history of being more than willing and able to both spy on foreign citizens and also to take any action it deems necessary with complete disregard for sovereignty than I am about the country also spying on foreign citizens but that contains its actions to within its own borders.

e:
A US monopoly on global infrastructural resources - like, say, Windows or RSA encryption for secure payment processing - has knock on effects when the NSA insists on leaving back doors to allow it access, because it then results in civilian damage as a byproduct when things like Wannacry or Birthday attacks occur when black hats independently find those exploits the NSA asked to be left in.

The US is pushing the narrative hard that chinese governmental security forces have backdoors via their civilian technology sales, despite having no proof to supply anyone that that is the case, because the US governmental security forces have backdoors via their civilian technology sales. Its textbook projection.

Absolutely woke.

Civilians should be far more concerned about their domestic government, which have the convenient option of leveraging parallel constructions. The US government is beyond hypocritical, and is way more of a real threat to individuals residing within the FVEY countries than the PRC is.

oh no no no, mods need to do something before people start getting the wrong idea that they can criticize them. It's like a mental contagion that could become viral. Quickly, get an admin to remind everyone that they need to quietly report themselves to be added to the mods shit-lists for a poorly justified future ban.

I mean it's not surprising that going EGS exclusive is basically sales suicide in the PC market. The whole idea is that Epic is paying them enough to offset this loss of sales. The fact that Epic is almost certainly not making any profit off these exclusivity deals while using it harm their competitors is part of why this is so distasteful. At least Standard Oil would actually drop their prices, and not just legally restrict access.

Also: Linux, previous Metro games supported it. So fuck you Epic.

Linux gaming will never be a thing and that has nothing to do with Epic.
