      I admire how the victims of Microsoft Windows are fed msn news directly in the comfort of their start menu

        It doesn’t. I found the same news several times over elsewhere, covered in more detail. I appreciate the sentiment though, thank you.

      It’s probably a good thing, as MSN is not a primary source (They buy their news from other agencies)

        This is what I meant. It’s an aggregator whose primary function is not to relay news but to draw people into microsoftland and/or advertise to them. To be sure, other news sites do this too, but they actually have journalists and editors and therefore (at least the pretense of) journalistic integrity.

      Actual antisemitism is still a thing, and pretty common with the kind of people that would commit this kind of crime. It’s a real shame that the term has been made almost useless by applying it to anyone with a principled stance against genocide.

    A story that’s interesting from a gun crime perspective. Stopped by two good guys with guns (but did they accidentally hit the shooter’s child?), and the crime was committed with a gun purchased legally. It’s got elements of both sides of the gun law debate, lol

      Eh, “Good thing we had dangling pianos to drop on the guy who’s been cutting all the cords on our dangling pianos” isn’t quite a strong argument for the pro-dangling pianos side

      What debate? Why can such a thing as a debate exist? You’ve got a conflict of interest between children’s public health and corporate profit and we know which side is winning. Public health can’t be measured in economic terms because we lack a children’s market
