jonne,

Yep exactly. And what happens if Republicans win Congress later, put up the same bill and democrats vote against it? Now suddenly they’re the ones accused of playing games instead of ‘trying to solve the border issue’.

jonne,

Yeah, it’s not like there’s been a good track record in Latin America of socialism being allowed to be implemented. There’s basically 2 countries you could call socialist, and both are sanctioned and under constant threat of regime change.

jonne,

Eventually even those customers will look at alternatives too if there’s only like 50 companies worldwide using it.

jonne,

It does limit travel options. Bibi wouldn’t be able to vacation in France, for example. But yeah, that’s about the only consequence unless Israel decides to rendition him.

jonne,

The reason is probably that too many people got caught liking questionable content through the likes page.

Philanthropist who gave $30M to U Manitoba condemns 'hateful' valedictory speech, university for allowing it (www.cbc.ca)

The philanthropist behind the University of Manitoba’s largest-ever personal donation — $30 million — has denounced a speech made by a valedictorian for medicine grads and admonished the university for letting it happen....

jonne,

That’s why philanthropy needs to be reigned in. It’s just such people using money (that would’ve gone to taxes otherwise) dictating how society should be run, whether in academia, the arts, leisure or even policing.

If they paid this money in taxes, we’d all get a say what happens to the money (I know, that’s mostly in theory, in reality the rich get to say what happens with that money too).

jonne,

Woolies did do a good thing by bagging up the less perfect looking fruit/veggies and selling that separately cheaper. I’m assuming Coles does the same.

jonne,

Yeah, same at the market. At the end of the market day they’ll wrap everything up that’s left and sell it by the kilo.

jonne,

Yep, they’ve gotten away with it before, and the ‘free world’ didn’t say a peep. Israel can do things even the US itself wouldn’t get away with

jonne,

I mean, aren’t they always? If someone starts shooting at an FBI agent they’re not going to call their field office for permission to shoot back.

jonne,

But it doesn’t do anything about inequality. Rich kids will have an even bigger tax shelter to retire on while poor kids will have nothing. This is a tax break for the wealthy.

jonne,

Smoking a pipe will do that.

jonne,

They were all about supporting the ICC when they issued an arrest warrant for Putin. It just shows that the ‘rules based international order’ was always a sham. International law exists to give a legal veneer over the pure power politics that were always at play.

jonne,

Except Palestine isn’t a country, and Israel had already killed more Palestinians over the course of the year before Oct 7 happened. Gaza is an occupied territory, and you shouldn’t be surprised if an occupied people decided to kill occupiers (most of which were actually active IDF personnel).

And then there’s the question of the response. With the benefit of hindsight, how would you rate the US response to 9/11? Did the actual response make the US safer? Was killing and maiming millions of completely uninvolved people in 20 years of war worth it?

jonne,

I think stable diffusion is an open source AI you can run on your own computer, so I don’t see how the developers should be held responsible for that.

jonne,

Technically he works for his own campaign, and you know he never reads anything, including his own speeches.

The NYPD's Public Relations Staff has More Than Doubled in the Past Two Years (nysfocus.com)

In a statement, Brooklyn Councilmember Lincoln Restler pointed to the contrast between the dcpi’s staffing surge and Mayor Eric Adams’s cuts to other city services, including hundreds of layoffs in the Department of Buildings. “It’s stunning to see the nypd Communications Department more than double to 86 staff while so...

jonne,

And yet those people get to go on TV and they’re never challenged on their personal behaviour. Call peaceful protestors terrorists with a history like that.

jonne,

Yep, turbulence will affect any plane, it’s not like things would’ve been different on an Airbus.

jonne,

Yep, I’ve been saying this forever. If you force the incompetent to work too, you’re just making things harder for the rest of us. Just pay them to sit at home and smoke weed.

jonne,

I’m not saying the weed smoking causes incompetence, I’m saying we shouldn’t be forcing people into the job market that don’t want to / shouldn’t be there, and they should be free to do what they want in that unproductive time, whether that’s watching TV, writing, painting, shit posting, raising kids or smoking weed (or any combination of those things). I used this example exactly because of the stigma conservatives put on the ‘dole bludger’ or whatever they call them.

jonne,

The EU takes pedestrians (and cyclists) in account for safety standards, the US doesn’t.

jonne,

You basically need to design the car so pedestrians bounce over the hood instead of going under. So you can still to an SUV, but can’t really do a Ford F150 style front.

jonne,

And Biden has been a Zionist since entering Congress. AIPAC probably didn’t even have to pay him. His famous empathy doesn’t extend to Palestiniens (or other people of colour).

jonne, (edited )

There’s never any consequences though, he keeps failing up. Hopefully the shareholders call his bluff, but a lot of them buy into the Musk mythos.

jonne,

we get EV’s that don’t suck ass and are cheap enough to compete with dino juice cars.
