I'm not judging someone who read the entire series or those who did it multiple times. People are free to enjoy what they want. Regardless of that, doing 8 months multiplied by even 2-3 times is a considerable chunk of a human lifespan. It explains takes like "I don't like the adaptation because it made too many changes" and it needs to be put into perspective. I've elaborated more on this in my other comment.

"This series is 1:1 replica of a book" and "this series is only taking a passing inspiration from original books" are merely facts and a starting point to set expectations before moving on to describe and judge an adaptation. It's okay to judge by comparing original to adaptation but "this is not a faithful adaptation, therefore it is bad" does not help in evaluating quality of derived work.

I guess it was up to e-scooter renting companies to come up with some kind of geofencing of reasonable parking but they failed to self-regulate which led to everyone being pissed off about them. If those companies were concerned about the spaces they littered they'd probably be still in business.

It's a good sign that abusing good faith is punished with such severity.

I agree that it's more cybersecruity related but given that this incident led to a food product recall there is a bit of a more broad appeal so I think fits this community.

I don't believe critique of JK Rowling is left wing extremism although book burning as a form of consumer boycott seems to be rather counterproductive.

How about banning public book burning in general? Not a lot of good memories related to that.

Want to keep burning books? Have waste collection services provide a pickup point. Then they can do it in some industrial incinerator so you'll have your book burned but without providing media with an easy outrage (unless you wanted outrage?).

Book burning seems to be a tool of right wing extremism, even when it's used against right wing extremists of some other kind, there's very little benefit to the society.

Also obligatory, fuck organized religion.

You're already trying too hard but are also not extreme enough to win. Sorry.

There's a caveat. Most countries will heavily regulate access to limited resources, for example radio frequency bands. SpaceX is occupying defined orbit which means it's perfectly reasonable to ensure society benefits from this privilege.

If a motorcycle is zooming at Mach 3 in a general vicinity of your house it's pretty hard to report due to practical issues like getting shoes on, getting to your Mach 4 capable vehicle, locating the offender and catching up with him to get his plates.

I'm disappointed with russia. They could have spun it into a successful drone attack on Ukrainian military moon base, or a military moon kindergarten.
