What is "verbatim mode"?

It can be a game if you have a shock kink.

Well the word "meme" comes from Dawkins, but his usage was not to label the idea we talk about when we talk about memes.

I know for a fact where I'm from memes were something you'd only ever see on 4chan and people on Facebook and any other "normal" social media (or people) had no idea of what the fuck even was a meme.

I rememeber because I was like "this people are degenerates but it's fascinating the whole layers upon layers of insane meaning that they managed to cram into single pictures, I wonder if people outside this bubble would ever understand those".

And to be fair memes nowdays are rarely as "obscure" as those old ones.

Isn't the concept of a meme itself a leak from 4chan?

I think revenues also shifted from selling music to using cheap music to sell concerts.

Fun fact, in many languages apothecary is the normal word for a farmacy!

It is not the only point when it comes to adopting technologies, when it comes to maximizing privacy, yes maximizing privacy is tautologically the only point.

Because it makes the point for a more solid technology as far as privacy is concerned?

They way I uderstand your comment, LTT is big enought so as to negotiate contracts with sponsor without being forced to share the metric related to the performance of the sponsored segment.

I doubt that's true for many creators.

I'm pretty sure it does, they do see how many people play the segment.

This is your brain on drugs.

America has lots of issues, no need to make things up.

I've never experienced it but the somewhat obvious trick is that it turns into a race to the bottom, where if you want to outperform your peers (or even meet the expectations of the company), the number of days off you freely decided to take turns into a KPI.

So, people take even less days off when they are made free to take any amount.

It's why in Italy, for example, you can not refuse to go to holiday.
