I’m shocked!!! Positively utterly and completely surprised and shocked!!! /s

“Czechoslovakia is not my problem” vibes. How did that end up?

So having western troops in Ukraine should also be fine if they stop at the russian border right?

The theorem is not misleading, it literally states infinite monkeys. Not 200k monkeys or even 200 decillion monkeys, infinite. If it’s possible for the monkeys to press the keys in the right order, then the time it will take for one of them to write Shakespeare’s complete works will be limited only by their typing speed.

Colonialism is such a beautiful and logical thing. /s

More like democracy good, but justice is not a popularity contest.

In a well run country that requires a supermajority of some kind of council picked by different groups like some representatives for the judges, others picked by the legislature, etc. which avoids any group having full control of the courts.

Fines need to be payable, otherwise they are a joke. A large chunk of global revenue GDPR-style is reasonable because it really hurts the profits but it’s still small enough that the company can pay it, and it will incentivize the company to change their practices.

That doesn’t help if they have software that assumes it can reach all sites.

Not all of them. Tesla has two groups of investors, Elon Musk and his cult members on one side, and investors that deceived themselves into thinking Tesla is a rational investment on the other. The former has the majority of the shares, and the latter is wasting their time and money trying to get the courts to rein in the cult.

We moved into hypothetical whataboutism now?

What kind of sheltered people get offended by “dipshit” to the level they have to censor it?

Instagram was already forcing people to self-censor before TikTok became a thing

Social media forcing people to see self-censorship as normal has to be in the top 5 of the most harmful things they are doing.

Police said the restaurant manager, who was released from detention after a few days, soon reopened his business and started selling pizza number 40 with the the cocaine side order again.

I would say the dude is not the brightest bulb in the box but he barely qualifies for a night light.
