Only that more than half of the time a peaceful discussion gets buried by that automated system and then dang comes several hours later and says "oooops this got caught by the anti-flamewar system and now the discussion is dead!! oops!! our code monkeys are working hard to fix this!"

>Among iPhone owners, a striking 91% of respondents indicate that they would prefer Apple to release the iPhone every other year rather than every year. Among respondents not owning the iPhone, this fraction is even larger, at 94%.

I wonder why the 94% care so much about a phone that they do not even intend to own.

I can't help but think that this study simply shows that more people should mind their own damn business.

That is precisely the point. All is cheap and nice because there isn't a young population to buy it. Otherwise it would turn expensive because of simple supply and demand.

>how many would it be if we were not providing them with assistance? Do you think they're just going to roll over and capitulate if the US turns off the tap?

Seems like it? What else would they do?

Just look at what's happening, they are going to end up losing anyway despite the amount of money that the West has been giving them.

I have had the (not so novel, I admit) realisation that most intelligent people I know have had zero children, whilst most dumb people I know have had (at least) one. This was funny when it was the plot of a movie, now it's starting to worry me.

And that's perfectly fine. Not everything needs to be a "meeting in the middle" or a "compromise". Ideas need not be watered down.

Then there's a lot of people like me who don't care at all because it works as well... they just changed the colours.

If only EPP parties were really right-wing. I say this as an actual conservative. EPP parties generally are "our position is whatever the left espoused ten years ago". Which is, basically, a very progressive position.

I have to try three times because it says something went wrong. Then it generates an image that looks nothing like the one I uploaded. And then the next time I try it says I made too many requests. So, it would be cool if it worked I guess.

Yes, and I will talk to myself.

Not to mention the app is a buggy mess. At least on iphone.

Thankfully, because Telegram seems unable to stop adding bloatware. Their service was complete years ago.
