Is this a joke comment? Or is this really what the average American thinks?

>they went by “Prince”

Just reinforced my opinion that nobility in modern Europe is a bad joke.

If you ever find yourself in company of these self-described nobles, leave.

>Not necessarily. I started my businesses in a shed in my parent's garden and got in to £20k of credit card debt.

>That's not really privilege, I put everything I (didn't have) on the line!

Incredibly lacking in awareness... btw 20k GPB is more then 24 average salaries in my EU country.

>I don't think a lot of developers are buying macs due to marketing.

I've never seen a developer with a macbook in my country. The idea sounds absurd.

Unless you need Final Cut or whatever, Apple is considered a status brand in many parts of the world.

ha ha... what? how is it even legal for goods without invoice to enter the EU?

Just a different kind of strongman political fantasy.

>4. I hate how this looks and wouldn't play it except as a curiosity

What on earth makes you think Doom with raytracing is anything other then a curiosity? It would be shocking if it turned out to be anything else.

Are posters on this site really so dour to not recognize a bit of... hacking?

The baloon project was actually one of the cool parts of Google. Notice the past tense.

>Lots of people make a living doing what they love/building a better world.

Really? America must be a great place then. Don't know anyone like that where I live. My doctor friends would be closest but they certainly don't have a good quality of life and their lives are quite dystopian.

Almost as if the mistakes were the important part of self-driving. Crazy huh.

>ukraine can not win this war. no way

I guess the Ukranians disagree!

Well I just don't understand. I mean you're literally undermining your own point.

The west was incredibly patient with Russia when they annexed Crimea and started a civil war in Ukraine(10 000 dead before this invasion), even as they blew up civilian passenger planes and committed terrorist poison attacks on foreign soil, poisoned their own politicians, built up their police state.

Putin explicitly said he was not going to invade Ukraine.

Why on earth would anyone believe a word out of this mouth after this invasion? How is negotiating in good faith with such a regime rational?

Intelligent discussion? That was supposed to come BEFORE the invasion, the only thing that matters now is to kick Russians out of Ukraine.

The genie of war is out of the bottle. The Russian people have blood oh their hands.

>Russia has 4 clear demands. Why not just give it to them?

Well apparently most Ukraninans would rather die then live their lives under Putin's boot or indeed together with Russians who think its OK to invade other countries and murder people who oppose them.

But I believe you when you express puzzlement, this confusion seem to run all the way to the boss.

He was literally supposed to run with an observer(because he's a cheater and can't be trusted) and he didn't, several times. How is that not cheating?

>In 2015 the L.A. Marathon must have noticed something fishy because officials asked him to run with an observer in the future. But when he returned in 2017, he ran alone, the observer idea apparently forgotten. He also ran solo in 2018 and 2019.

>So Murphy and the LetsRun crew grumbled when the L.A. Marathon announced in early June that it would not disqualify Meza from the 2019 race. >Instead, officials would ask him—again—to run with an observer next time around. “This is the best solution for all,” they told Murphy.

They're literally begging the guy to stop cheating so they don't have to ban him, and the guys does a world record. It's beyond ridiculous.

Instead of admitting it, he kills himself. I'm sorry, the whole story is tragic, but obviously this guy's problems went far beyond evil posters on letsrun, as awful as that site is.

Well I just don't get your comment. Did you read the article at all?

>I'm pretty sure only online cheating detectives pay much attention to unusually low marathon times

It would be a world record in his age group if the LA marathon was a proper IAAF course. When people started getting suspicious his name and picture came out on the cover of the Los Angeles Times.

>specially if the person doesn't actively seek to promote themself

maybe next time cheat a few minutes slower then the world record! ridiculous!

He was literally disqualified multiple times from races before that including a lifetime ban from a marathon he cheated at...

then he went to LA marathon where he wasn't banned, but had to run with an observer, and still ran without an observer to set the world record in his age group...

Did posters just stopped reading articles on HN?

Right. People have had their lives and reputations blown up for all sorts of reasons, meanwhile this guy cheated to run

>the fastest marathon ever recorded for someone in his age group of 70 to 74

A bit ridiculous then to say people were attacking him for no reason, or his daughter not understanding why anyone cared. Dude was literally claiming to be the world marathon champion in his age group while cheating for years.

>Also, instead of returning to our root slavic religion, we got atheism This reads like 4chan-level trolling

Kovač(Kovacs, Kovac, Kovach) in Croatia.

I tried Dark Souls multiple times and I just find it dreadfully boring.

I like video games to challenge my mind, not how fast I can duck-roll-dodge-hit-dodge-roll-hit and so on for 10 minutes to kill a boss or whatever.

Wow I had completely forgotten about this.

3 times less users then any of the others. Most of those in english speaking countries.

>It's completely unlike other social media

In what way? It seems like something between vine an instagram.

Its a lot worse then Facebook, there isn't even any text.

A hybrid of Vine and Instagram designed to make you stare into your screen with the smallest of interactions.

> Newton and Einstein both seem to be on the side of hidden variables, so I'm not sure if it's unpopular among the elites.

Everyday posters on this website amaze me. I should really stop coming here...

I really appreciate comments like this, makes me much more aware how stupid HN news posters are, a much needed reminder.

Life in prison for being over budget...

100% agree with you, and I don't want anything resembling confrontation when I'm buying souvenirs on vacation.

Couldn't care less if its rude or polite or whatever.

Go ahead and haggle if its fun for you.

In countries like that I just don't buy anything. Life is too short for haggling.

>Having a direct Axis ally on the continent probably means he can defeat the US,

I don't think I've ever heard an argument as weak as this...

>The worst thing about the new taskbar is that it can not be dragged to the sides to be vertical.

What?? I will literally not switch because of this...

No, I am not interested in installing 3rd party addons just to have a functional screen in front of me!
