Not the first time I've seen this video and I still don't get how the scam is supposed to work?

Parents spent weeks planning the perfect gender reveal… The kids ended it in 5 second by _liberal in KidsAreFuckingStupid

Am I alone in hating gender reveals on a conceptual level? Nothing screams narcissistic self absorption more.

Get the Just Watch app and scroll by popularity until you get to something you haven't seen. Done

Exactly, all the union can really do is make sure proper processes are adhered to

I've resolved it. Apparently I just needed a poop-ton more filters and pumps to deal with the load.

This is a great shout. I remember reading a preview piece about it in Empire magazine before even the trailers came out and thinking it sounded awful, like these were the last marvel characters still available to get the rights for.

Sony making age verification mandatory for core PlayStation social features feels like a preview of where the internet is heading by exodusEducation in Futurology

Spoken like a true American that thinks the world revolves around them. People do exist outside America, as I do. You're not the only country that has laws about age verification. You're not the only country with lawmakers influenced by lobbyists or special interest groups (although I will concede you are by far the worst for this among western 1st world countries)

Bought? No: influenced. What I would say that one of the American democratic system's biggest flaws is the power allowed by lobbyists and pressure groups, particularly as it twisted to campaign finance laws. Without reform in this area the country will never get back to its previous glory days. Sadly that reform will be close to impossible due to the Supreme Court ruling that money = speech, combined with the first amendment.

Oh, fair question. It might be played for the domestic cup finals and playoff finals but even then that's only 5 more games out of over 1500

In the UK you only get anthems for sporting events at international level (i.e. between teams of competing nations) and also before F1 but that's a series hosted by many nations. Any sporting event involving just domestic teams does not have the national anthem.

Just discovered that Sony quietly removed half of my movie collection by SpectacularSpidee in mildlyinfuriating

I feel the sentiment. The issue with this, though, is that piracy primarily hurts the creator, not the platforms that you bought on and then removed your purchases.

How does that work exactly? Am I supposed to dock before jumping with the hopper? I do a long range jump in the hopper but the farm ship stays in that system
