The site is for interesting articles of any sort, doesn't need to be tech related necessarily.


The thing is, this isn't really interesting.


I found it humorous that the images looked somewhat similar to the types of things that jr. high students draw when they 'discover' Metal.


The wonderful thing about opinions is that everyone can have them, and they can all be right. Case in point: I find this interesting.


alt + f4, enter, enter also works well


>What attracts many white males is the fact many Asian women are usually more mature, intelligent and feminine than others.

a few too many generalizations there ;)



I still get asked to sign in when I view that link, but that's besides the point: I wish paywall'd articles weren't accepted here.

Maybe there is a place for paywalls in this world, I just don't think we should be posting links to them here.


The trouble with paywalls is, am I going to pay for NYT, WSJ, Boston Globe, MoneyWeek, Newsday, The Onion, etc, all individually? No. I might subscribe to one paper, but that's not how the Internet works. Even then, I never subscribe to the paper. I get it free at work or at the library or in a hotel.


Ironic comment, considering what the article is about.

If you don't like paywalled sites, just don't go there. What have you really missed? There are plenty other articles elsewhere.

(Big Music/WSJ) vs (streaming/any other article on any other subject on the internet). Same thing.


IMO posting paywalled sites to a news aggregator detracts from the experience of using the aggregator for anyone who doesn't subscribe to that paywalled site.

Its established that a low percentage of people are convinced into signing up by a paywall. There for, posting paywalled articles to a news aggregator detracts from the experience of everyone who chooses not to subscribe to that particular site because it robs us of front page real estate that could be held by other non paywalled but interesting stories.

Consider a news aggregator where every link went to a paywalled site, so many disparate sites that you couldn't afford to subscribe to all of them. Would you find the aggregator more or less valuable than one that had freely available information.


Perhaps the dualistic East/Western modes of viewing the world aren't enough.


This is a good use of influence, hopefully it's not only for a bulletin point.


An all points bulletin point?


I'm interested, what did you enjoy about Bojack Horseman? I've seen it, and I was quite puzzled about who the audience for the show was.


Did you watch the whole season? I found that it improved a lot in the second half of the season and I'm hopeful that it'll get better in the future, especially with the cast they have. The first few episodes cribbed heavily from other shows, but they started doing their own thing later on and it was much better.


I found the first four or so episodes painful to watch. The writing seemed to be trying so hard to be funny, and it was impossible for the excellent voice talent to make it any good.

Does it really get that much better? I want to like this show.


I think he was just making a joke, one I thought was very funny.


I really enjoyed the 4th photo in the series. The strong white background really helps evoke the scene.


Thanks; it does have a lightness to it...



have been meaning to tackle that, actually -- thanks for the nudge. i read The Bed of Procrustes a few years ago...
