I know Lawrence of Arabia, which one was he?

He's completely missing that betting on something like the pope isn't like a random or skill based outcome. The cardinals could literally choose to pick based on the betting markets or even to profit from them if they really wanted to. Polymarket is smooth brain degeneracy for many, many reasons, but this is smooth brain degeneracy turned up to 11.

Imagine being such a degenerate that you bet on the Pope.

I mean this is like saying "I only agree with that one thing Hitler did" and then trying to explain to everyone why you felt the need to defend Hitler. I mean sure, there were probably a handful of policies the Nazis got right, but people are going to look at you funny if you go around phrasing it like that. Especially, in this case, if that "one thing" was actually just praise for shitty authoritarian policies.

This. It's amazing how naive people here can be just because they fanboyed some random CEO before they were revealed to be problematic.

Ecco the Dolphin is literally impossible without a guide.

This is literally how it works. In modern android you need to explicitly grants microphone permission to apps the first time you use them. Now, if they are clickjacking the permission notification, that's something different, but the article doesn't mention this. You can download your own microphone logs and verify if you are curious about this.

I mean it implies that these apps are both violating permissions (in many cases) and the android visual indication of an active microphone. So far I have seen no actual proof that this is the case. Mic activity is logged. You can debunk this yourself easily.

This also works with asking it "why?" About random facts you make up.

This entire comment feels like brain rot to me

Can confirm. I was super straight until I locked eyes with that tall dark and handsome TSA agent on the other side of the machine. Sounds like this dude has a similar story.
