Their 1 dollar canned drinks

I like the sparkling coconut water with yuzu. The sparkling pineapple and watermelon juice are pretty good too

Also websites are going to start blocking firefox citing low user counts but you know what the real reason is

You're interpreting the term watermark too literally

It will be a small unique arrangement of just a few pixels to identify the user

It can even be distributed across the screen pixel by pixel to make it less noticeable

All they'd have to do is make each pixel 1 hex code lighter or darker or something

Assuming each pixel can have no change, 1 step lighter, or 1 step darker, it'd only take 22 pixels to cover 31B accounts = 3^22

I believe there's 25B Google accounts in total out there atm

The US mobilized thousands of tanks to invade Iraq during the Gulf War. You don’t see the difference here?

Cause they were using it themselves. Big difference between giving it to another country

Also just completely ignoring Russia is at least one full generation ahead of any other country when it comes to air defence

Idk why I'm having this military debate I don't even have any interest or research this, it's just so wrong come onnnn

Giving a single overseas country ~18% of one of your best artillery systems and 100% of yearly production is insane btw

Also Russia is firing 10,000 rockets every DAY. Those 9 waves of 1k isn't that much

US has <1000 HIMARS and can only fire 6 normal artillery or 1-2 "state of the art" ballistic missiles

This would bankrupt their inventory lol

As cool as I find the YouTube one, I already hear way too many stories about that from my friend's cousin who's in MS-13

This has surprisingly garnered lots of support amongst gamers

Every day I keep getting surprised and my bar keeps getting lowered deeper into the ground

The workers are largely just as pro-capitalism and anti-worker as the employers but they're way less likely to support acceptance and extra corporate or governmental resources for minorities, women, queer, and trans people (they even regularly complain about tampons in the mens bathrooms), even as a farce to increase labor productivity

Edit: I'm not saying anything negative about the female side here, just the male one

On one hand, you have fanfics, kpop Stans, fandoms, Sanrio, etc.

On the other you have literally 4chan, literally reddit, circle jerks about muh superior white music genres like metal, modern rock, and being "cultured" by liking suffering porn with socially conscious hip hop, Roman history, WWII history, military obsession, geopolitics obsession, gamer shit with n-words and Japan stuff, some weird shit with obsessing over your body/facial features to be the perfect Eurocentric ideal, etc.

Also shout-outs to pro incest and pedo anime culture

In the words of a friend who agrees: White men just cannot be trusted to be left alone together on the Internet
