@raphjd At this day and age, you can't be a white anything according to society.

@raphjd Oh no.... Not the pronouns! LOL

@hubrys I have assumed no such thing. I am merely saying that they are not the same thing, but the problem is that there is no scientific basis to determine one way or the other how it compares, so one should air on the side of caution as the effects of the non naturally occurring version are not known.

@PythonLover Restarting your client is actually a big mistake. See, your torrent client only updates with the tracker once every 30 minutes on each torrent. When a torrent is stopped and restarted, any data since the last update is usually lost. As well, when you restart a torrent, the system sees a new session and resets the totals against the torrent in your profile to zero. You need to be patient and let your torrent client do its thing to properly update your stats.

Fun fact: In Canada, violent crime statistics used to to track the race/ethnicity of the accused. Because of just how many violent offenders were not in fact white, they scrapped keeping records of the race/ethnicity of the accused, with certain politicians in power crying about tracking the race/ethnicity of the offender being "racist".

Funny how it's only "racist" to track such things when the stats show that in most cases, the accused/offender is NOT white. When only a small number of these people are actually white, it suddenly becomes "racist" to track their race/ethnicity.

That wouldn't be because the powers that be are trying to push an anti-white agenda, would it?

@raphjd They cannot stand anyone or anything that disagrees with their twisted narrative and/or agenda. When they encounter opposition, they kinda go ape shit.

@AmsBoy91-0 Greetings from the Cold White North... Otherwise known as the 2nd coldest country on earth... Canada.

I've wanted to go to Amsterdam for a long time now.

@john32123666 I have made @Joker aware of this. We are working on a fix for this. Strangely, the .ru site and the forum works just fine... It's just the .rent domain that seems to be having the issue.

@raphjd Why do you think I don't vote anymore.... I don't vote because I don't think any of the candidates we have running are acceptable, and thus, I refuse to support any of them.

@hubrys You say it yourself.... SIMILAR.... SIMILAR is NOT the same. There is a difference. One is naturally occurring and the other is not.

@raphjd Justin Trudeau tried such measures in Canada. It failed miserably as many police forces refused to enforce the powers that he gave them on the grounds of them being unconstitutional... For example, Justin Trudeau gave police forces the power to stop people (like drivers) for no reason other than to question them about where they are going and why they are not at home like they're supposed to be. On the most part, most police forces refused to exercise this power. The closest that many of them came was setting up speed traps and pulling people over that they caught for speeding (a valid reason to otherwise pull them over even without the restrictions) and asked them the questions.

What's worse is that if you had to travel to and from work for some reason, you had to have papers from your employer with their contact information to vouch for your need to be out and about to travel to and from work. Also, you were only allowed to travel to and from work if the job that you do was considered "essential". If your job was not considered "essential" by the government's standards, you were SOL.

The other thing we saw was a restriction on what products you can buy. If the product was considered "essential" such as groceries, it was fair game, but things like clothing (including bras and underwear), and many other things you could reasonably argue are essential for some people were not allowed to be sold. It was insane... Going into Walmart and not being able to buy about 90% of the stuff on the shelves. It was insane. On that note, we even had a very interesting case that we came across where a man went to do his grocery shopping wearing nothing but a pair of tighty-whities. The media covered it extensively as it was considered so "groundbreaking in uncertain times". His claim (which I kind of agreed with) was that if clothing was not an "essential" item, then why is it required to do our shopping?

Getting stopped by the police, questioned, and needing papers in order to travel freely between places without police interference is awfully reminiscent of things we learned in history class, isn't it? Those times were very 1930's Germany, don't ya think?

@raphjd I hate to say it, but the Liberal party here in Canada is no better... We're always giving out obscene amounts of money to the poor people of wherever it may be, while simultaneously ignoring the needs of their own people. For example, we have a housing crisis in Canada currently, but yet our idiot stick prime minister has continued to open the flood gates of immigration to take in more and more people, knowing that we already do not have enough housing for the people we already have. What's worse is that many of these people that are coming in are coming in claiming refugee status when the truth of the matter is that they just do not want to go back to their country as they won't get the free handouts that they'd get in Canada.

That brings me to another bone of contention with the Liberal party here... They'll create all kinds of opportunities for the immigrant population and make certain services available to them, often at no charge, but yet if you were born and raised here, you're SOL and get nothing. I presume that the USA is very much the same from what I can gather.

@blablarg18 As a general rule, I would say no... Stereotypes are never a good thing as they often do not reflect the opinions, values, styles, etc of the masses, but rather only portray an image of the people that does not accurately depict the group as a whole.

@blablarg18 It's just that whether or not the poll hits on the truth does not change whether or not the belief is true. I just don't see how opinion (however popular or unpopular) can in any way determine what the facts are.

Don't get me wrong though... I'm not a fan of Biden, and I am also not a fan of Trump either. I find BOTH of them to be vile and disgusting humans (if you even want to call them that). Now... the interesting thing to see will be to see whether or not the majority of the masses are correct in their belief and assertion.

Simply put, I'm looking for the facts, regardless of however popular or unpopular that they may be by way of public opinion.

@blablarg18 What do polls of what the people think have anything to do with the facts of the matter? They're literally speculation at its finest and mean nothing in terms of the actual facts.

Don't get me wrong... I'm all for marketing to the largest market possible in the masses, but I couldn't help but laugh at this one. If you want to feature a chubbier dude to try to market to a larger target audience, that's fine, but why does it have to be a butterface?

I mean seriously... They're great and all.... BUTT-ER-FACE! LOL

@raphjd This does not surprise me... Many politicians will say whatever they think they need to say in order to get into power, and then quite often, do not deliver on their promises. It's kind of sad, really.

@raphjd It's a sad, sad world that we live in... It never used to be this way, but things seem to get just a little worse every day.

@raphjd Ah... That would make sense. I just found the number rather oddly specific.

It's sad that things have come to this... And to thin in the 1920's and 1930's, electric cars were a thing but got shut down because of big oil.

Now we've come full circle, but have not really done anything to address the issue of the wires involved.
