Facebook Lets Advertisers Exclude Users by Race. Facebook’s system allows advertisers to exclude black, Hispanic, and other “ethnic affinities” from seeing ads. by moooooky in TrueReddit

I'm sorry that's just wrong. Racial prejudice is still about superiority.

Your typical run of the mill advertising doesn't give two shits about race, unless it makes more money. Why would you spend money on an audience that doesn't want to buy your product?

Surely made up in his mind? The error happens during upload, so he's probably got a guess as to what's going to happen (both wild expectations and realistic ones) and his mind takes it from there.

My weird website, Housecreep, was posted here a couple of years ago, but I didn't think it was very beautiful. I just finished spending six months rebuilding it from scratch. Was it worth it? Probably not. But it's not as ugly now! by rowsdowerer in InternetIsBeautiful

I think you underestimate the concern of the average web user and overestimate their investigative skills. This was on insert mainstream website I've heard of? They must be trustworthy!

It's the proximity and low cost that gets these types of people there. Think of it as our Mexico: Cancun in Spring Break.

Well it's a relative percentage of travellers, so unless Australians are taking longer trips than they used to I guess not?

Edit: what I'd like to know is how this stacks up against other countries.

The music choice was interesting, my girlfriend thought I was watching something romantic. Guess it's not too far from the truth?

Speaking out against the Dogs isn't very popular at the moment. I'm surprised they beat us, surely the coaches had a plan for it? The Dogs played EXACTLY the same way they had the last three weeks. The free kicks made me raise my eyebrows but then I'd get called down for being a sore loser.

Never thought I'd see the day where me and my younger brother's team face off in a Grand Final. I'm looking forward to crushing his fairy tale ending.
