AP maybe, PBS like NPR have been slanted for the longest time, they don't allow comments for a reason, they have plenty to fear when the narrative is so fragile.  Usually with such outlets its bias through what they focus on, and which talking heads they launder their opinions through. You don't have to lie, you bring on a chosen third party "expert" do to it for you.

While the originals still exist, the legacy is tainted.  Its the difference between the Matrix and the Matrix Trilogy or if they had ended with Terminator 2 instead of dragging that franchise into the dirt. 
Back to the Future is the example of stopping at perfection.  Stories are about the impressions they leave on you, and you can't forget what you know, once tainted the original isn't quite the same.  Not many things are clean logic, its why if your wife cheats on you, things rarely go back to how they were before that, some things can't be undone.

It's not about chat.  It's about all content.   and common sense as it was conventionally considered is not common, very few people have enough sense to innately know when to switch of something because it is poorly founded or dangerous.
 
 
There is a reason a certain number of people will abjectly dismiss rational or evidential realities, it's because they either don't like that reality or they aren't smart enough to be able to comprehend said issue/condition.   Either way they are displaying a distinct lack of common sense or are idiots.    If you can find evidence of being able to educate idiots then please post it, other wise I'm going to refer you to Jordan Peterson and his explanation of the US armies studies into IQ.
 
 
Armed forces reference from 7 Minutes.

Talk about absolutely obliterating a franchise. It's astonishing just how badly Disney missed the mark.

No, quite the opposite, we have people educated in stupidity now,  The cult like double speak now flows from the tongues of the new elites which have been over produced thanks to lowered standards and massive levels of debt.  Intersectionality alone is pure sophistry, Orwellian redefinition's to apply every double standard possible.
 
Linus doesn't know what he's asking for when he asks for more.  Being from Canada where his news is second hand CNN no doubt there is plenty he has not seen. What is truth?  Which religion is true?  Facebook has been wiping out legitimate political parties Facebook pages.  Even skeptics aren't safe, notably anti Islam groups who can cite chapter and verse of contradiction in their fact checks, but these fact checks are "hate speech" to Facebook, you see how that works.  What's true doesn't actually matter, and no silly examples of hippy crystals really deals with this reality.  Clearly Linus leans a bit left, and most of the cherished unquestioned presuppositions of that ideology do not survive fact checks.  Evolution implies inequality, diversity entrenches this inequality into reality, any questions, any science is simply suppressed.
 
One can really sum up "hate speech" as blasphemy, everything makes sense after that, so the there is no answer for Linus, let alone one one he can just demand "more" of.
 
As for who is doing the subjective calls, lets just say they aren't hiring phd's from philosophy departments
 
 

Considering the number of hours people use their pc's for so many other uses than just gaming, the amount spent divided by the life span of the item is very very minimal, as a hobby PC gaming is incredibly cheap.  The differences in things like high end monitors and cheap one is non trivial once you use them, and that difference only grows the more hours you have into such things.

It needs a decade or two on hold for people to forget, and a changing of the guard in all the positions of power and creative control before a fresh take on it can be tried again.
 
This won't happen since Disney has to milk the cow they bought, so there is no hope for the ruined franchise, they literally reached back to destroy the originals with what they did in these ones.  It was the last chance with the original cast, and they forced them to watch the ruin.

Imagine signing up for a forum to spread some ridiculous crap.

I don't really understand why this matters. It only means that the card acn't be used with secure boot. If you're building your own PC then you probably aren't using it. Most of the time you can't use Linux without disabling secure boot.
 
Really not a big deal, it's not like you can't use UEFI mode. You can use UEFI fine but not secure boot. I am using UEFI with a Radeon VII myself so I don't see what the fuss is about?
 

Anyone re-uploaded the original?

The response by Stefan alongside most of The Verge's editorial team really hits the nail on the head on why I don't read or follow portals like Vox Media. 
 
I can't understand why there was a need to deflect to racism/misogyny/sexism on a topic where none of those things are involved. Sure, maybe you can do that on whatever controversy President Trump is going to stir but not when it comes to computer hardware. 
 
Plain and simple, the guy made numerous errors when building that PC (things that someone who has been building PCs for a while as he claimed should have known) and many have called out on it. Sure, maybe there were some asshats who made fun of his skin color but I guarantee you that 99% of the response was pointing out what he did wrong. 
 
His response afterwards related to toxicity in gaming (even though it was more related to PC hardware) along with the dismissal of legitimate criticism because "I have a better computer than most of you and it still fucking works" just reeks of absolute stubbornness. 
 
Dude, you built a computer wrong. Many of us are pointing that out so that you're aware and then able to fix and potentially re-upload. Nothing about it was racist or misogynistic in any way, shape or form. Just man the fuck up and grow some thicker skin because right now, many of the folks at The Verge and most of Vox Media seem to have skin thinner than Apple's ambition of thinness. 
 
And it doesn't matter that "it still fucking works". That's just bad practice for building PCs. Yeah it works but it doesn't work nearly as well as it should. 

So this happened.
 
 
Why do i get the impression they are simply lumping together any and all 'critisism' into 'harrasment' from reading this tweet.
"some minor factual erros" ...    -.-
"Happy to engage with our audiences" .....dissabled youtube comments and votes.... dismisses twitter feedback and makes excusses... ok.
 
Oh and lets not forget the best current point of defense/argument in todays age ... Racism ! . If the presenter in the vid was female aswell im sure they would have also used 'sexism' in their resposne.
 
 
 

Because that's what they always do.
As soon as you critizize them, you harrass them with facts.
 
Didn't you know that facts are harrassing things?
 
We just see it so clearly, its so obvious.
 
Here an oppionion on the Video:
 

The real question is how much did they pocket.  Are review samples marked confidential meaning they didn't even pay for that?    I wonder how much citibank paid them in total.

Haha. At least he did that, so that's something.

Ah yes, "big think" the lulbert site.  Drawing straight lines right into mouse utopia.  I've seen Pinker do the same with his cherry picked data as well.  The native western populations they claim are doing so well are well below replacement rate, especially once you deduct the children from recent immigrants.  Not the sign of a functional sustainable society, let alone one built on the ever expanding ponzi scheme of a giant social welfare state.  All the while the very same types proclaim the end of labor due to automation, while they mass import poverty they won't know what to do with after even their labor is made obsolete.  And all the while this is going on, they continue to shift the IQ bell curve with reckless immigration policies, which will result in far fewer scientists and engineers, not very smart when their utopian dream relies on science to save us in the end.  Remember, not even the west produces enough top tier minds at the top end of the bell curve to sustain our advanced societies, we import and poach what we cannot produce ourselves.  Now imagine how hopeless it is for countries which start with an even lower starting point.  To put it simply, the "data" he's willing to show is selective, because there were questions he didn't dare ask.
and back to censorship
 

We don't use the term "hate speech" as that. We use it to describe ANYTHING negative about ANY "marginalized" group.
 
That'd be literally EVERYONE that supports hate speech laws (violation of freedom of speech).
 
Except that the concept of "hate speech" was born for the explicit purpose of invalidating any and all statements that are negative towards 'minorities,' even factual statements.
 
 
 
Hate speech is a bag of bullshit that exists exclusively to try to invalidate arguments on the basis of appeal to emotion,  there is no factual backing behind "hate speech," there is no logical absolute to what is and isn't hate speech. Hate speech is not a real thing.

Tech were given special leeway to grow during the boom to ensure world dominance, they were able to avoid basic things like taxes, and of course the eyes of the regulators because they were the golden goose.  They are effective monopolies now, oligopolies, trusts, whatever you wish to call it, and the fact is Microsoft was slapped hard for doing far less.  If their argument is that they have become integral to the electoral system and that foreign influences are an attack on our democracy, they can no longer claim to be private spaces where they can arbitrarily do what they wish.

And yes,  silicon valley culture is toxic to the point where google fired a man over legitimate science.  They have proven that they aren't fit arbiters of the truth.  Its been fun watching the left stoop to becoming the defenders of corporate corruption and market abuse.
 
And it goes far beyond this, because what these companies build, will always eventually be used by the government.

He's saying the label 'hate speech' is stretched to mean whatever one wants, and in the UK they are turning this into legal action.
