  He’s been a libertarian douchebag as long as he’s been a public figure.

  Beltway journalism trades in a currency known as “access”

  McDaniels made a case to nbc that if she’s hired and Trump gets elected, he and his cronies will trust NBC more with people like her there.

  NBC is shameless garbage that will happily help spread tyranny if they think they can profit

  McDaniels wasn’t hired to head anything at nbc.

  1. There will be scores of people looking for evidence this new device is doing something Apple has not disclosed. This is how security researchers make a name for themselves.

  2. The engineers on the team building this product will not want to be associated with building something nefarious. These engineers are just regular people. You can find them online and speak with them. They look for jobs at other firms just like we all do. Unless they are being paid so well that they won’t ever have to work again, they can’t ruin their reputations.

  3. If you really believe what this post is purporting, I’ll remind you that you are most likely carrying a device with you every day that has a microphone and internet access. If you aren’t, you are still surrounded by people who are.

  The claims this post is making will simply make people tune out or ignore real security concerns.

  @Klanky I loved every bit of that except for Rick Berman’s name.

  TIL Bohemian Rhapsody was formally the highest grossing biopic. I kind of liked the movie but I know a lot of people who obsessed over Freddie Mercury and they all swear the movie is wretched

  Be careful about praising The Orville the way you are to people who remember TNG very fondly. It apes TNG very closely but also has more than its fair share of Mcfarlane’s Family Guy humor which isn’t for everyone and definitely doesn’t jibe with Trek.

  The episode where we first meet the Krill has Lt. Malloy laughing maniacally and constantly at the fact that the Krill’s god is named Avis. This just isn’t that funny and breaks immersion.

  McFarlane himself admits this episode was very juvenile and the show gets quite a bit better once he decides to stop going after Family Guy style jokes. Many people won’t watch enough episodes to see the show is worth a chance.

  @as_is_tradition

  but if I saw one in my bedroom or bathroom, that’s a dead bug brah.

  If a house centipede is living in your bedroom or bathroom, that should tell you that you’ve got a pest problem.

  House centipedes are wolves. Wolves don’t just hang around where there’s no prey
