Spent the past week repairing a house and was too tired to participate in this thread. Now I finally have the time to see the juicy gossip going on.

>I know you want to whine about how Christians Somehow ruined Rome and etc
I always find that part to be extremely tiresome when the
ONLY reason why any pre-history material even survived those hundreds of years of absolute chaos was due to Christian monks and priests autistically documenting and copying anything that passed their town.

>I think the average leftist has that mindset because they are always at odds with the managerial level above them.
It's more deluded than that, Anon. Leftists/Progressives see themselves as the underdog because they're fight is against
reality itself. While everyone is focused on just trying to surviving the shitty circumstance that is life on planet Earth, Leftists/Progressives see themselves as messiahs who have been given hidden knowledge that will allow them to literally remake the world and the laws of reality however they see fit. It's the reason why, whenever something fails, even when everything is done
exactly as how they want it, they can never be the one who's wrong because they wouldn't have "failed" if reality wasn't the problem with the world.

>I don't know how anyone could admire the civilization
The Romans are admired because they had the largest empire on Earth, with the most diverse range of nationalities, and brought about many advancements with information, technology, and law. It sounds more like the problem is that you think any praise given to them is equivalent to excusing them of having done any wrong (Which no one is doing).

>Why the fuck are anons angry at spic users
Something I've noticed more and more is that inter-board and inter-site hostilities are constantly started by people
who want to cause trouble for the purposes of destroying a site. Outside of bad actors in this thread, I haven't seen any complaints about the bean jumpers on the site.

>Youngfags live on their phones, so get ready for that Mobile Friendly(tm) UI everywhere.
No, they're not. People are getting rid of their smartphones and dicthing them left and right:

<Ann Makosinski: Teenage inventor uses TEDx Teen talk to call on young people to ditch their smartphones
The only reason
WHY there's still an insistence on
everything having a mobile UI is because the tech industry (For the past 50 years) trying to force customers to go in the direction
they (And only they) want it to go, the business models for tech companies depends up on people keeping their eyeballs glued to their screen for as long as possible, that smartphones are so similar in design and specs that making a "dumb phone" is ironically more expensive and time consuming since you're excluding tech and features that normally come standard, the tech companies pay the phone manufacturers to include their apps on the phone by default and that "dumb phones" lack these apps and become more expensive as a result, and the government paying social media and tech companies for datamining so much data from devices that track literally every aspect of your life.
That's also excluding how businesses increasingly require their employees to have a smartphone for literally anything, ranging from inventory and ordering of supplies, to GPS and location tracking, to even the fucking punch-clock to track your hours.
To put it simply, there's too much at stake to allow people to go back to using a
regular cellphone, so they're going to shove it down people's throats whether they like it or not.

Go to the local thrift store, flea market, or pawn shop and find out. Buying digital-only games are for suckers.

>Boards that had some activity before ultimately dying could be put in a read-only state until they get a new BO, so their content isn't lost in the purge.
Spinning off of this, how about removing "dead" boards from the board list? The board still exists if you type in it's URL, or select a "see all boards" filter from the board list page, but it is not normally visible otherwise.

That reminds me, when I was reading through Ghost Sweeper Mikami, whenever Mikami was making fun of Emi (Her biggest rival) clinging to Pietro (A 700 year old vampire who looks like a teenager), Mikami kept calling her a "pedophile" (Both Mikami and Emi are in mid-20's) in the scanlation I read, that was available as of 2009: https://archive.ph/vAwXx
Primarily thought it was something worth bringing up because (1) is was an older-female/younger-male instance and (2) is was before much of the pozzing that took place after the 2012 period.

>At this point, I'm not sure if he's retarded or if he's deliberately trying to kill Twitter.
He's trying to make the platform profitable. None of the major Western social media sites would remain afloat if it wasn't for the government subsidizing every aspect of their operation. And, as a result of the feds fleeing after Musk bought the site, he has to find some way to make an income to keep it operable. However, that does make me wonder why he wasn't more blase about it, or tried following similar policies to how successful for-profit social media exists in other countries (Best example I can think of is NicoNico).

Wasn't part of the problem was that the Bong politicians did everything in their power to deliberately spite the populace for voting for Brexit in the first place, even to the point that, as the U.K. exists right now, there actually isn't any difference between how things worked before Brexit and after it?
