the whole math of “stole $500 million” is stupid. That is hypothetical money. It is just not true that all people would have purchased instead without megaupload.
“Which generated $175 million for the site” that’s more like it. Making money with other people’s content is shitty and Kim knew it was happening.
I don’t think he should be extradited but that is at least a decent reason.

Or have education about how much piss goes everywhere when you pee. In Germany most men sit to pee most of the time, it is a cultural issue and can be changed. That said, if you do urinals, make them stalls too, I don’t want to chat with my pee neighbour.
How did I know you are going to point that out. So smart.
Here is the part of the comment above you, that you disagreed with:
In Germany most men sit to pee most of the time.
Emphasis in bold courtesy of mine to help with reading comprehension to what comes next, namely the quote from the link I gave you:
Of all 13 countries, Germany was the one where most men sat down “every time” to urinate (40%). Add those who do so “most times” (22%), and you get the result shown on the map.
Urinals can be spaced more closely than regular toilets. Only problem is that women (or anyone with female-appearing anatomy) don’t have a nice way of using them.
All this moral panic about gendered bathrooms had been debunked ages ago. The TERF propaganda machine just kept throwing more and more fearmongering our way. It is good to hear that some countries take steps against this neo-segregation insanity.
How is it that a judge can just decide somebody can be arrested for no other reason than “they didn’t like their attitude”? If a crime hasn’t been committed and a person hasn’t been arrested, how does the judge have any say over what a private citizen is doing? I would expect them to have to have slightly more leeway over their courtroom and they can have people escorted out or whatever, but just being able to detain people for no reason seems like an abuse of power? Across the board it seems like the Judicial branch has too much power.
Do be clear, it doesn’t sound like she was actually arrested or actually detained at any point. The judge said he intended having her put on jail clothes and handcuffs to frighten her into taking court seriously, like a “life lesson” thing. It sounds like she mouthed off at him after he asked her to pay attention. His goal was to “scare her straight,” but he definitely should not have tried to reach her this way
Judges have a lot of leeway to hold people in contempt of court. But because the US is so big and has so many judges, you’re bound to get a few shitty ones.
Here's why. Does anyone even know what the paralympics even is? Looking from the comments below, I sincerely doubt they do.
The paralympics is basically "The Paralympic Games or Paralympics, also known as the Games of the Paralympiad, is a periodic series of international multisport events involving athletes with a range of disabilities."
So do you know what this is exactly saying? This is saying that Transgenderism is a disability. That is giving more ammo to all of the bigots out there who've been crying about how Transgenderism is just a choice and that it's all wrong .etc
I cannot say that I'm fully in support of this. I would've been more proud if a Transgender individual made it to the Olympics and was breaking ground for their group. But no, this is them being in the backburners of society for pity points.
Petrillo, 50, was diagnosed with Stargardt disease, a degenerative condition of the eyes, at the age of 14. She competes in the women’s T12 category for athletes with a visual impairment.
The headline was to show a groundbreaking event. If she were the first black woman to compete in the Paralympics, that is what the headline would say. And no one, save maybe you, would think that meant being black was a disability.
Just do individual bathrooms you can close. Everyone prefers them anyway, why wouldn’t you want to have an entire space you can lock down and do your business and move at your own pace?

Conservatives have always been good at framing the narrative. It helps them convince people to believe things that are simply not true. This is not a new strategy. It has been working for them for 60 years.
They really are. My mom is “pro-life” and religious, but when I interviewed her about exactly what she believed, she said birth is hard and would never want to force anyone to do it. I’m like… You’re pro choice then.
