You find the ones that aren't boring and listen to those.

Of course they're just people talking to each other. It's an audio-only medium! Some of them are boring and some of them are entertaining.

Have you never heard of talk radio? I feel almost like I'm explaining music or movies to somebody who's never heard of them before.

Only almost, though.

You might want to refer to the left parenthesis or the right parenthesis and then it would be incorrect to use the plural.

It was a trivial change to some documentation. The fact that he chose this hill to die on says a lot.

If Sanders and AOC aren't the future of the Democratic Party, then the Republicans are just going to keep winning. Neolibs simply aren't popular. They aren't far enough to the left for the leftists, and they aren't far enough to the right for the conservatives.

Parenthesis is singular, parentheses is plural. One parenthesis, two parentheses. Like crisis/crises, axis/axes.

This article appears to be pretty even-handed.

My assessment? Get fucked, Ladybird. I don't want to trust my web security to people who think like this, especially since web security is very political and will only become more so as the Trump administration continues.

Filesharing isn't piracy. It's filesharing.

Piracy is when you attack a ship and steal its cargo.

But, of course, it was difficult for the RIAA to have a war on sharing, so they had to use a different term with sinister connotations and implant it into the public consciousness.

And it worked! You never hear anybody talk about "filesharing" anymore.

He can't run for president. He wasn't born in the USA.

Not even close.

Why would it be a threat to the entertainment industry? I thought they were all excited about being able to cut costs with AI.
