Sync for Reddit also has avatars. I had my weird little snoo character, but I have seen plenty of people’s uploaded avatars. I imagine it’s a setting you had disabled.

The last couple of minutes are profoundly good. The movie is full of slapstick humour and wacky situations, and you forget who is the main character and what his purpose is. It does slow down for a bit, but the last couple minutes are what tie the whole thing together beautifully. It is one of my favourite films, and my mother’s favourite. I hope you can find the ending somewhere (yarr, matey, if nothing else).

I got started there too. Then I moved to Mandriva, OpenSUSE, Mint, with Ubuntu sprinkled throughout.

What in the child labor camp is this photo?

(Actually, getting kids to dress up as firefighters and disaster response workers is probably a really fun way for them to clean up after themselves. And it looks adorable.)

Jellyfish eat animals and animal byproducts, so no, they are not vegan.

Jokes aside, often vegans follow dietary restrictions for reasons other than an ethical or moral belief against causing pain. Many vegans don’t even eat honey, so I imagine jellyfish is pretty safely in non-vegan territory.

The latter. Whiteness is a social construct that has been used as a convenient way to stratify classes since the 17th century, and it isn’t always about skin color. Plenty of pale ethnicities have been left out at various times, then subsumed when it suited the powerful to balance the in from the out. The new insiders would naturally fight to protect their new higher status from their former peers who were now lesser than they. Irish settlers were the outsiders of the day, like Latin American migrant workers are today. It’s about exploiting the powerless and keeping a pecking order in place.

That comparison might have merit, though. If they use 8-bit 1080p, it will have lower dynamic range than UHD at 10-bit depth.
