Because the world wants to know how hard Polievre fucked himself by hitching his wagon to the trump train.
Also, with an election called in Canada, it probably doesn’t cost much to tack a question about current events onto a poll you were already going to conduct.
If you’re planing to ‘invest’ your lunch money and get returns big enough to pay for the lunch too, you don’t have a plan, you have a gambling addiction.
I’m pretty sure everybody on these websites knows they’re more similar to enlisted soldiers than to Vladimir Putin.
Too late. I already jumped ship because of Copilot’s “Recall”, and I’m not interested in going through a round of partitioning the hard drive and installing a new OS so soon.
“They” is the car manufacturers. And yes, they were promised by Apartheid Willy Wonka.
And they fell for it. Partly because this happened back in like, 2010, when tech still felt promising and fun and partly (mostly?) because they wanted to.
Ehh, they were promised that full self driving was only a few years away. If that had been the case, touchscreens would be perfectly fine. But a decade of “only two more years, we swear” later, it’s time for the manufacturers to get back to work on AM instead of FM.
Biological AI?
Wait, are these AI boosters bragging about how close they are to building God the torture that Roko’s Basilisk is inflicting on us all?
You can just switch to Libre, but as Microsoft products (even paid) enshittify and as the Linux scene makes itself more user friendly, switching the rest of the way over just kind of starts to make sense.
It’s bud. Like cut it off before it blooms into whatever awful thing it’s growing into.
I’m all for sticking it to the chuddy guys who call themselves ‘alpha’ and behave accordingly. But there’s a bit more to it than “alpha wolves doesn’t real”.
The scientists who observed the ‘alpha wolf’ behavior were seeing something: wolves in captivity. Which is something that has an analogous human experience in prison.
But since there are an awful lot of these ‘alpha guys’ who have (somehow) never caught a charge, much less spent a stint in prison, maybe it says something about how, maybe, they feel imprisoned on the outside. Like maybe their school, work, home, or social life feels penned in in a way that is not healthy.
She also asked that people do things that she specially could not do due to having no authority to enact policy, whereas Musk is interacting directly with levers of power (whether he has any legitimate/legal authority to do so).
Who? The horses? Let them try.
No need for anything so drastic. Just find him a wall to sit on.
There’s no such thing as ethnic cleansing. It’s just a weasel word for genocide. It’s all it ever has been. When “ethnic cleansing” was going on in the Balkans in the 90s, it was just a genocide that nobody was intervening to stop. Same for Myanmar in the mid 2010s And for Karabakh in 2020.
Russia’s search for alternatives in Algeria, Sudan, or Libya
The logistics of a Mediterranean naval base in Sudan would be something to behold. Seems like they’d have to cross the Suez. That or portage past the Aswan Dam.
He can’t say that in a meeting that will obviously have leaks. It would be “value-destroying.”
What’s the point of having “Fuck You Money” if you don’t say “Fuck you” when it matters?
Whenever people act like disruptive protest is such a terrible tactic, I have to wonder what they think would work instead. Like, do they think the letter writing campaigns that have gone exactly nowhere in 40 years are on the verge of a breakthrough?
Or would they prefer the environmental movement to compile an overly literal companion reader to Andreas Malm?
The Prime Minister is de jure the acting president in case of a vacancy. Given the strength of legal institutions in Russia Mikhail Mishustin would have some work ahead of him to actually hold power.
Shrinking their market share is a much bigger middle finger. If you use their product and shut off a bunch of features, you’re still using the rest of their product and its other features.
