It’s simple word association. I’m aware of the Latin translations. I’m also aware that most people are not going to think about it too long, and immediately going to jump to conclusions. They also believe in Bigfoot. What end of the Bell curve are we talking about, here?
I dunno, he’s a serial killer trying to remake the world by looking everyone he doesn’t like and it’s pretty mainstream.
Even without that, drawing attention to Light seems weird. Could’ve been “Peace”, “Faith”, or “Love” or whatever.
This is just 12 years of Catholic school talking, but it’s a strange name to pick that ties to a lot of less than desirable stuff.
So they choose Luce, so close to Lucifer, and they expect the Internet to NOT bring it up? There’s Lucy, Daughter of the Devil on Cartoon Network for shit’s sake.
Nevermind the connections to Death Note, a far more popular anime about Light Yagami, and the subtle connections between his name and Lucifer the Lightbringer.
This seems so much worse on it’s face, even if you leave out the undertones of children’s abuse by the church and Rule 34 that will come out (which are worse, but the church keeps trying to bury it)
That’s a really innovative idea, and solves a lot of transportation problems since phonographs were usually stationary in a house.
However, the size doesn’t fix the problem of carrying around 10" disks to play on it, so the setup is only as compact as its components. Still better than carrying around a cabinet, though!
Yep, that’s exactly what it did. Maybe there was a way to do it, say if you had a VPN, but people picked up pretty quick to ban a single IP.
A lot of the actual, serious ones that knew what they were doing got caught. Some went to lulsec to be jerks with no agenda and were caught by the Feds. All that was left were script kiddies that downloaded the Low Orbit Ion Cannon and used scripts they find online. Then they left or were overtaken by alt right idiots.
The original Anonymous are in their 30s and 40s by now. Everyone ages out.
It’s probably more sanitary in Japan, but in the US I could see the guy sitting in the both next to me sneezing directly into the water, licking his chopsticks before attempting (and missing) some noodles. Then giving up and using his hands, that he didn’t wash after coming back from the toilet.
Kind of like buffets.
I just want to ride on my motorcycle
If I’m gonna die, I’m gonna die historic on the Fury Road!
I certainly hope that now he, as Kevin Bacon, walks around telling strangers he loves them. Since now he knows how much it sucks to be a nobody.
Try using a non-alcohol-based lotion. If you can’t find one, I’ve had good success with Eucerin. I put lotion on my face and scalp right after my shower, and don’t have any itchiness or flakes.
I couldn’t find a shampoo that fixed anything for me.
If you have it on your elbows or knees (very common), you can try Aquaphor at night. That is pretty sticky, but keeps your skin calm and moist.
A dermatologist can give you some prescription lotion/cream, as well. That also works, but it’s typically a small tube and expensive.
I wonder as well. My filter is made of plastic, and my water lines are plastic. Sometimes my cup is plastic. Do I get more micro plastics after the filtration process?
This could be a case of them cutting multiple covers at once.
I had the same problem with jeans. I order the exact same style and size, but they don’t all fit the same. When I spoke to a Levi customer service person, they said they have multiple layers of fabric piled on top. Then the cutting blade presses down, and the fabric bends. As the top one is to short on measurements, the bottom most one is to long. So you want one in the middle.
I know paper isn’t fabric, but it could be something similar. It’s speed and efficiency over accuracy.
Interesting, because the inability of people to understand basic concepts continues to disappoint me.
Shoplifting is actually stealing. You’re taking something away from the vendor. Piracy doesn’t actually take anything physically from the vendor.
Besides, if I can’t actually buy it (only a license to use it), then it’s not possible to steal it.
Wow, can you imagine trying to fix dry eyes by using eye drops, only to have to get them surgically removed to prevent your death? Going blind over eye drops? 4 deaths even…
You see those videos of workers in India doing barefoot work making pots and small metal parts. Turns out that’s everywhere, including your eye drops.
I’m sure the companies responsible won’t have any consequences, but I wish they would. That’s so incredibly reckless and who knows what else we use every day that’s manufactured this carelessly.
Yeah, but chrome doesn’t allow uBlock Origin to run fully, and it allows ads through.
57% of which tribe? With more than half, I would expect you to have a fairly strong upbringing in the tribe with various customs and your parents likely know how to get you enrolled.
They do, but Google reduced their utility. Ads from YouTube get through my uBlock Origin, and I see ads in my search results. This was a fairly recent development, as maybe a year ago I didn’t see any ads at all on Chrome. The day I got ads punched through my blockers, is the day I quit being lazy and migrated back to Firefox.
Google has no incentive to block ads when that’s part of their revenue stream, so they nerfed third party extension’s ability to actually work at intended.
I get things like “enlightenment”, etc. But the average person (at least in the US) that isn’t already Catholic has a strong possibility of already being told they aren’t real Christians, and isn’t going to know or care about etymology, and will assume it’s Lucifer. They could call the main character Satin after the cloth and it’s have the same effect, even though they aren’t related.
