Now is the time for Europe to rally behind Ukraine. We really should have upped military funding and arms production in preparation for this outcome.

Oh it’s been like that long before January 6th, and long before Trump even stepped foot in the Republican primaries eight years ago.

That wasn’t me defending Jan 6th either. Trump’s little Beer Hall Putsch was frankly inexcusable, and the fact that he’s likely not going to face any kind of criminal repercussions for it makes the US look weaker than the Weimar Republic.

Because American politics is weird and partisan a f.

Anything even remotely left will get you labelled a Commie or tankie by the right, while anything remotely right will get you labelled a Nazi by the left.

I’ve seen women like that on dating apps. Claim to hate small talk, include in their bio that if you just open with “hi” they’ll unmatch you, and then when you put some thought into actually writing a response, ask a leading question about their interests or what they wrote in their profile, they unmatch you anyway.

Barbarisms by barbaras, with pointed heels

I’ll wait and see what comes of it. Valve have been singlehandedly responsible for evolving Linux gaming by leaps and bounds, to the point where the only real hurdle right now is anti-cheat compatibility.

Their direct collaboration with Arch is massive for that reason alone

Only drunk people apparently like to do karaoke

I’m thinking the API protests would have been more effective if y’all just stopped moderating entirely instead of locking down subreddits.

Let the site turn into an absolute cesspool.

I used to work for a major business outsourcer. One of their contingency plans in case an office burned down or had to be evacuated was literally to make everybody work in another office 50 miles away.

It was so bad that they weren’t even willing to reimburse travel costs. It was either get there or be fired.

It’s not bad by any means. Some of the best exploration and puzzle solving in the series but damn the combat sucks.

I’ve heard Iraqi Kurdistan is a nice place to visit and is relatively safe compared to the rest of the country.

His dad is King Cold.

Cooler is his brother, also probably not canon because he’s only ever appeared in two movies which aren’t considered part of the main continuity.

That’s Freeza’s mom.

Yup, he wanted to say it, but 28 day modmail mute and all 🤷‍♂️

It’s easy to avoid buying things from Amazon

I mean… Yes but also no.

Amazon have gone to crap in recent years and has become a more upmarket Wish or Temu. Much of their storefront is full of Chinese knock-off brands these days.

What Amazon does offer is somewhat reliable next (and sometimes same) day delivery. The only way you can get something faster is by travelling to a brick & mortar shop and buying in person.

As for AWS, aren’t we forgetting that Microsoft, IBM, Oracle, Google, even Alibaba and Huawei have their own cloud solutions?

I’m in the first camp. Instagram is flooded with spam accounts posting links to illicit Telegram channels where actual CSAM is being distributed. The owner of Telegram was also arrested recently for failing to safeguard his platform from such highly illegal activity. Children having easy and often unrestricted access to social media is probably the reason why things have gotten so bad.

Every major social network should be asking for ID verification, but there should be strict safeguards on how that information is used and stored, with hefty fines for failures to safeguard.

Gab tried to pull the same thing with their Dissenter plugin. It was such a bad idea that Mozilla and Google banded together to remove the extensions from their stores for ToS violations.

Now imagine what a nightmare it would be to moderate the ability to comment on anything online with actual standards and decency.

Actually, the screenshots of the ban messages were found via a Google image search and are not me.

But yeah, Reddit has a problem with rude power mods swinging their banhammer. It’s been documented for years.
