Not in the slightest. Even with the last decade of 'pfft, why pirate when we have Spotify?!1' dialogues, music piracy never slowed down for a moment.

Asked and answered but to chime in also: Boxing is not fixed (outside of incidents involving crooked people of course).

Pro Wrestling is choreographed performances. The results of matches are predetermined by the booker. The wrestlers come together before hand, decide between them some 'spots' they wanna do during the match but otherwise go out there and 'call a match' live (giving each other verbal cues to do certain things/do certain things to them which the audience doesn't/can't hear [hopefully, looking at you Cena lol]).

The moves are done in specific ways to minimize actual damage, and wrestlers are trained to land, and take moves in specific ways to minimize actual damage.

A good source is the Santino Bros Wrestling Academy out in Cali. They have a playlist on their YouTube channel showing the basics of almost any wrestling move you'd wanna know and learn. Watch some of em and you can see the tricks.

Or the 3 or 4 times New Jack tried to straight up kill someone during a match.

I.E. A Tuesday.

Honestly the only thing HP has ever made that I haven't been horribly, horribly disappointed with is their monitors. Just through circumstance of 'whatever-the-fuck-was-cheapest-but-not-total-ass-when-I-went-to-buy-them' I've ended up with 4 different HP monitors over the years, including a 20ish year old 4:3 one which still goes strong to this day.

Every other product was pure unadulterated ass.

Magazines can be deleted. There is a Delete Magazine button in the Magazine Panel of any magazine you own (on the General tab, first one).

However at this time it does not appear to be an automatic thing (I believe Ernest has to clear then manually). I've deleted around a dozen so far (which were taken care of within 24h) and have had over a dozen more as well waiting for deletion (which have been sitting there for a month+ as Ernest has been busy as of late, and then the holidays and such).

What you describe is the reason I switched from sync to boost years ago!

It's Canada's version of The Onion.

So it's The Onion-adjacent.

 

One fan compared this to 'executing Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer on December 1st,' because so many fans rewatch the show around Halloween.

 

Director William Friedkin, best known for his Oscar-winning “The French Connection” and blockbuster “The Exorcist,” died Monday in Los Angeles. He was 87.

 

'Oppenheimer' is now the biggest World War II pic of all time at $552.9 million worldwide, while 'Meg 2: The Trench' and 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem' open ahead of expectations.

 

The Writers Guild introduced new demands on Friday that could prolong the three-month strike even longer.

The demands include a point that the companies agree to “a health care benefit extension” that would give striking writers more time to qualify for the health coverage that many face losing because of a lack of earnings during the work-stoppage.

 

You woodn't beleaf what Groot gets up to in Season 🌳🌳!

Marvel Studios’ #IAmGroot Season 2 is streaming September 6 on Disney+. #NationalTreeDay

Five new “I Am Groot” shorts are heading to Disney+ beginning Sept. 6.

It looks like a bitcoin miner was included in the installer, and the admins on 1337x may or may not give a shit apparently. Scanned my pc and my wifes and found the same stuff the others mentioned.

According to the other comments, don't feel the need to uninstall as the miner was installed separate to the game, just give a Malwarebytes scan to get rid of the junk.

 

Well not sure when I'm gonna get around to Baldur's Gate 3 but I guess if nothing else, it is time to start playing Divinity Original Sin 2 for the very first time.

What's that "Aww fuck I wish I knew that before I started" thing that I should know before I start?
