Re: Zuckerberg: "Give us your nudes"
It's all about the face detection, surely? Who would give a fudge otherwise? Once concerns are flagged by one of their users, couldn't Facebook just use the existing profile photos to scan for revenge porn? Tattoos can identify a person even if their face isn't in frame. Good point. These Facebook ...

Re: I'm from the Alt-Right and I'm offended by ..........
Yeah, accusations of cultural appropriation feel to me like a child in the midst of a tantrum counter-productively smashing their own toys. That's a bit unfair. I don't have much truck with it as a concept but there is occasionally a point and some substance to the criticism. For indigenes, for exa...

Re: One for Nieghorn
The podcast mentioned that state-sponsored experimentation was conducted on some aboriginal children. For example, in one school in the 1940s/50s children were denied food to study the effects of malnutrition and starvation.

Re: One for Neighorn

Re: FIFA World Cup 2018 - OFFICIAL Thread
I wonder if the reputation that the English fans have acquired is self-perpetuating. The Irish and the Scots must travel with their fair share of shady characters but people like to feel welcomed, and long to be held close by the locals with sweet nothings about the craic whispered in their ears.
