How dare you criticize the US giving weapons to our allies. You must want to kill the Jews, you dirty Hamas lover.

I don't administer Linux, I use Linux. Unless you're conflating being an end user with being an administrator, in which case I would say that's a rather pretentious way to put it. Nobody walks around saying they administer Windows because they have a laptop. It sounds stupid.

The former owner of this newspaper was in prison for embezzling millions of dollars from his company, until he was pardoned by Trump. The current owner was investigated for providing positive coverage to Netanyahu in exchange for passing legislation that would harm a rival paper. The current editor is connected to far-right political groups, which explains why they source some of their content from the New York Post. They've been criticized for writing false stories in the past, which they deleted when called out on by other governments.

Now, I'm sure none of that bothers you, but I'm posting this for other people for whom that sort of behavior isn't acceptable from a newspaper.

When you look up their history, it's pretty wild. The former owner was a conservative that was pardoned by Trump for embezzling millions of dollars from his company. And the current editor was involved in far-right politics before taking his position, which explains why they source some of their content from the New York Post. Not to be outdone, the current owner was investigated by police for allegedly giving Netanyahu positive coverage in exchange for legislation that would hurt a rival newspaper.

Idk about you guys, but I'm willing to take Israeli state media at face value every day.

I mean, this is the paper owned by the guy who was investigated by police for giving positive coverage to Netanyahu in exchange for legislation that would hurt a rival newspaper. They seem very trustworthy to me.

This is more than a little off-topic, but that man is wearing two watches.

As long as you keep seeding torrents indefinitely, you're contributing by keeping those torrents alive. That's a huge benefit to the community, and it's why you can get upload credit even if you aren't uploading.

And the fact that ebooks take almost no space means you can indefinitely seed thousands of books even if it's from a small hard drive.

So don't feel useless. In fact, I want to thank you for helping out.

That's an unfinished nature bridge.

Knocking things around in orbit is a terrible idea that only adds to the current near crisis we have with space junk. So yes, it would be a real shame if something messed with the orbit of any satellite, one that could cost hundreds of millions in damages or even loss of life.

What do you mean they don't let you have multiple accounts? I've had three accounts for years, and I'm not doing anything to hide the fact they're all me.
