Doesn’t the use of VoIP often make these hard to trace, as well?

I’m mostly just wondering how they’re distinguishing between astroturfing and legit posts.

Devil’s advocate here. Does not pretty much any post on the subject of politics that is not simply reporting constitute an attempt to manipulate public opinion? Are they specifically referencing nation states trying to influence public opinion?

This is true of a lot of large companies in general. The fact that they make money in spite of this shows how much the markets favor established players.

When I was a youth they called that “coco puffs”

Every piece of software that’s available in Russia or China has to comply with their laws. Their laws are fucked up. This is also very easy to circumvent.

Sure, a lot of times they’re just letting other people lie through their products.

Suddenly feel like watching the royal tenenbaums again

In some specific cases it might be, but a lot of parents are doing it for the wrong reasons, and I’m not sure I’ve ever met a homeschooled kid that didn’t seem a bit off socially.

So did I. :(

Soda with alcohol in it.

Its Instagram mashed up with artstation

They actually seem quite a bit different. The one for Cara isn’t perfectly round and seems to suggest a person in the middle.

Not really, it’s software which specifically allows people to defederate, so it’s by design that you’d have splinters.

London seemed like most other large cities to me, in that there was a wide variety of food from different cuisines available. It’s not like every restaurant was all jellied eels and boiled meat.

American here, but I think a lot of Americans have not actually been to Britain and eaten their food.

Too spicy for the NES version

Always surprised how many people evidently don’t know how to use a microwave. They are, like many things, useful if you use them right.

Because the number of people/households who consume equal amounts of chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry ice cream seems limited. And I don’t think there’s much to be gained by eating all three at once. Therefore it seems like something that has very little utility, so I’m surprised it would spread. Plus I can’t say I have any knowledge of it being invented outside the US, since to me it feels very… 1950s America vibe.

TBH I’m somewhat surprised to hear that it’s even a thing outside of north america.
