Yeah she’s his henchwoman. Or possibly is murdering him slowly. I dunno. She acted like a girl boss at the Beijing Olympics.

I believe he murdered an older brother in Malaysia. And he shot up an uncle with an anti-aircraft gun. The latter is unsubstantiated rumor, but the former was reported directly from the Malaysian government, who I would presume has no particular interest in participating in WESTERN (echo) IMPERIALISM (echo).

...but not so much when he doesn't like you anymore.

He’s okay with it because they allowed themselves to be puppets for the US.

Months ago.

When did you turn into white girl from the Deep South?

lol wut? So trying to overthrow an elected government to install loyalist puppets isn’t imperialism?

This has to be the worst heel turn since Hulk Hogan cucked that dude in Florida.

The Onion hasn’t tried to be funny for quite some time because of the absurd nature of conservative speech and actions. It’s by no means tasteless, but, much like Shakesperean court jester, it’s biting because satire isn’t always meant to mask pain.

Lol. No matter what, it’s been an insane ride. Can’t be mad at the Nuggets being legit. Of course, it will be a ton better if the Celtics get crushed.

Ngl, last night was rough, but I’ve kind of felt all along that they were exceeding their cap getting this far.

Nice

I was thinking more like IP addresses, but danger is generally itself overstatement, yeah ( lol). I’m just saying that there isn’t really any middle ground between no restrictions and getting rid of it entirely.

The danger of a company with personal data and the PRC breathing down its neck can’t be overstated. I don’t think congress would be out of line to just ban them.

Poor Godzilla!

New rules are up.

How?

Except..... if Congress, bans Tik Tok, it can be forced out of Apple and Google's store, meaning it becomes extremely difficult to install it on the vast majority of phones. Montana does not have that power.

Like I said, it's based on your account which includes your local IP address: If you used a VPN, you could never be blocked. Are you going to ban VPNs now?

Sure it does. How do you stop someone from retrieving that data? ESPN only blocks based on account information (based on the service provider account you input) which means you can theoretically travel to a city that has blocked a game’s broadcast and still see that game on your app. If you attempt to block based on an IP address… well we know how that ends up based on dynamic addresses and VPNs. It all comes down to where an account is registered, and that’s the problem. Unless you punish the actual user directly, there are too many work arounds that make it impossible to stop Tik Tok from being used in Montana.

You’re taking the wrong thing from what I said. You’re saying they were more worthy of a biopic than Cleopatra and I’m saying you can’t possibly determine that based on what is actually known about them. That’s not to say they’re fascinating women simply based on the fact they definitively ruled Egypt, nor is it a suggestion you can’t prefer a highly conjectured narrative about either of them versus a better documented narrative by the much later queen. In the context of this thread, it makes far more sense to hypothesize about Cleopatras racial identity given we have a greater subset of anecdotal accounts to go with images of her that could infer who she was than it does to two women who we have only generic hieroglyphics and a bust.

Yes, we are

Oh no!

I'm with Disco. The concept of a "2nd Amendment Jurisdiction" is certainly apropos for the situation given that it's a local jurisdiction attempting to regulate interstate functions even if it's not specifically about bestowing or releasing rights that are not theirs to give or take. First off, how do you ask a company in California that provides service in Montana to restrict access to a product that is legal in California? Apple's App Store isn't hosted in Montana, nor are any of the programmers who work on it. Furthermore, whereas app stores might be restricted by region, they are restricted based on where that region hosts its servers and where international law limits access to applications for users in that region. No such restriction exists inside of the United States, only outside of it. You can't legally build an internet firewall in a place where no such firewall is feasible.

The problem is the Celts lost the first game last round and still pulled it out. They get way more respect than they deserve though. I mean, beating the Sixers isn’t going to get you kudos.
