You'd be surprised at the amount of creativity that has gone into coming up with 'random' numbers for gambling Gum has a new favorite as of 20:37 on Apr 1, 2017 |

chitoryu12 posted:The actual issue behind channels like Vet Ranch and Demolition Ranch getting labeled as restricted is that YouTube has been putting a lot of videos on their restricted list after changing their algorithm in the past few weeks. Gun channels are some of the most vocal recent ones to get hit, but they've also noticeably restricted a lot of benign LGBT videos and pro wrestling videos. When the videos get put on restricted, they don't appear if you turn on restricted mode on your account (like if there's a kid browsing YouTube) and thus the videos get less views and therefore less ad revenue. Smaller channels can suffer greatly from this kind of thing. Unless it was changed recently doesn't restricting a video prevent the owner from collecting any ad revenue from it at all?

Jabor posted:The guy who got sprayed was being pretty aggressive and argumentative. He makes a pretty big showing off calling the cops (and keeps asking his girlfriend to check that they're actually on the way), at which point why not just wait for them outside? It's not like the shop is going anywhere. I imagine he was more concerned about his laptop disappearing than the shop

She was sent abusive messages like, “I can’t wait till your f****** c*** rear end is gone,” “You and your n***** boyfriend need to leave” and “Hope you enjoy your visit back to the dirt floors of your homeland, stinky rear end.” Gonna say the harassment probably had something to do with it

Phanatic posted:No, they can't. The state can't appeal just because a sentence was too light. There has to be some legal dispute at issue. Like, a prosecutor could appeal a sentence if there's something like a mandatory minimum which the sentencing judge ignored. Isn't this exactly what happened here?
