I don't actually know, but in my mind the audience most likely to watch those cruel "pranks" and find them funny are kids or teenagers themselves.

I'd love to get another singleplayer game as well, but I've accepted that Valve is just unpredictable. I'm sure they haven't given up on Singleplayer and we'll get another singleplayer game... at some point. Their previous game was the fantastic Half-life Alyx after all.

Sometimes it's okay to just disagree. With a topic like AI, the effectiveness of arguments against it will vary heavily depending on one's subjective opinion on things like intellectual property, what is and isn't art, how we should deal with emerging technologies etc.

Only if they already have the correct password.

In Star Trek SNW's crossover episode with Lower Decks (cartoon), Boimler's first comment when he meets the crew from SNW is that they look "very realistic"

Reddit not being the entire internet doesn't mean that every bit of information on reddit is also available elsewhere.

Obscure old reddit posts saved my ass so many times when coming across random tech problems. So while I understand why people delete their accounts, from a personal point of view I appreciate when people leave them up.

It was something on Windows 3.1 or DOS, but I can't say for sure which game it was. I played a lot of Microman, so it might have been that.

That is very much not their official website. Looks pretty sketchy in fact, with that "GTA V Download APK" link on the bottom.

It'll likely be like 2020, you can play offline but it'll be a much less detailed version of the planet. They pretty much have to use streaming for the high-detail environments, as nobody would have the disk space for it otherwise.

Best thing I've ever had with fries was the pepper sauce they have at some "Frituurs" in Belgium. Can't really get that here in Germany unfortunately.

My parents, yes absolutely. They are responsible for me growing up to be a tolerant, left-leaning person in a mostly conservative rural area. Being boomers, they might not be up to date with all the current LGBT terms or things like that, but they definitely have/had an open mind and don't judge people.

My paternal grandparents (born in the 1910s and 1920s) were very religious. My dad had to suffer a very strict upbringing under them. He was not allowed to read comics, watch TV, read sci-fi novels etc (though he did all of these things in secret). I only knew them as a child when they were already in their 80s and they were nice to me, but from what I've heard from my dad not necessarily nice people, and definitely not tolerant.

My maternal grandma (never knew my grandpa) rarely ever talked about politics or society or anything. She was a very down-to-earth person. That said, she definitely held some bigoted views in the form of prejudice against foreigners. She had major reservations when some Turkish people moved in next door. She eventually became friends with them though, so she managed to overcome her prejudice. I'd say she was a nice person.

That would explain why I didn't have any problems with Youtube and uBlock Origin.
