As opposed to your stance which is fuck people who don’t want to have their language massively rewritten. I think it’s far more reasonable to make individual accomodations for the non-binary folks that we interact with and accept that language has limitations and can’t be changed overnight.

Do you know that he didn’t take a gun safety course? For all we know, he could have had plenty of knowledge on how to safely handle a firearm and simply decided to ignore it for the sake of looking cool. The fact is that no amount of safety training can stop someone who decides to do something stupid.

I absolutely agree with your last point though. There should be extensive training in how to handle a firearm safely required before someone can buy a gun.

I’m pretty sure internet means internetwork, as in between networks. There’s also intranets, which are limited access web networks.

You are right that geoblocking really shouldn’t be a thing, it’s existence is thanks to varying laws and regulations, and most annoyingly, IP distribution contracts.

None of that relates to this murder as based on the description of settler concerns, which are more of an issue in the West Bank rather than Gaza, I’m guessing that this happened in the West Bank. (Where Hamas is not the government.)

Whether the murderers are IDF or settler militants is immaterial to the point of this being an unjustified killing of a Palestinian shepherd living in the West Bank, who is rather unlikely to be a Hamas fighter or involved in the 7th October attack.

How does the atrocities of Hamas relate to the murder of a Palestinian shepherd?

I think I may have watched too many ‘unwholesome’ videos, but to me that face could be seen in a different way.

Definitely a cute and happy face though. The onion is just having a great time.

Actually Hammas is spread by contact. If you touched someone who lived next door to someone who’s family dog was given to them by someone who had a family member join Hamas, then you become Hamas too.

The only way to innoculate yourself against this pathogen is by loudly and vigorously condemning Hamas for at least two minutes a day.

It should however be noted that condemning Hamas, and having absolutely no affiliation with any of their members provides no protection against Israeli forces mistaking you for a Hamas fighter and subsequently shooting/bombing/starving you to death.

Damn trainsesual agenda, wanting better rail infrastructure.

Not anymore, there’s a blanket.

You get sentenced to a lifetime of Dell.

But it comes with your choice of meme.

Maybe it’s how long it’s been in development, maybe it’s how many times that they’ve changed direction, or maybe it’s just that Ubisoft just put so much garbage in their games, but I predict that this game is going to be a trainwreck.

I was intrigued when they first announced it, but now I’m just so fucking sick of Ubisoft and their bullshit that I’m now just curious to see just how much of a mess it turns out to be.

Well if you want to execute billionaires then I’m not going to stand in your way. But I absolutely oppose having civil courts ordering death sentences.

Well the door fell off in this case… But I’m sure Boeing would like to make the point that this is not typical.

If the government has even the smallest modicum of dignity, he’ll resign or be sacked. It’s one thing to enjoy crass and offensive jokes, I certainly do, but there’s a time and a place for such humour. I mean he’s the Home Secretary for fucks sake! How in the world did he think that that kind of joke would go down well?

I’ve seen first hand the aftermath of someone’s drink being spiked… It’s not something I ever want to deal with again. Though I’ll bet it was far worse for the unfortunate victim of it.

I guess we’ll have to just lock him up while we figure out some way of stopping him committing cybercrime. If only there were some way of preventing him from committing this crime that requires access to a computer to commit. I guess he’ll just have to stay trapped in a phyche ward until society can figure this one out.

Sorry for being snarky and sarcastic, I know what you mean and agree with you. My sarcasm is directed more at the judges ruling and your comment is just what sparked me to write it.

So do you think that shipping companies should charge fees to both sender and recipient? Because that’s the physical equivalent of this situation.

I pay my ISP to deliver data to me at an agreed rate. The data being streamed from the bandwidth heavy sources has been paid for… By me. It would be wrong for my ISP to then go and charge them for the bandwidth that I’m using, much in the same way it would be wrong for a company to both charge the sender and receiver of a package just because that package is heavier than normal.

And many of the CDN agreements that bandwidth heavy content providers sign with ISPs have favourable terms specifically because those ISPs recognise that having good access to that content is exactly what their customers are paying for… At least the ones not completely blinded by greed do.

From how I understand the judgement. Yes the postal company does have a legal obligation to deliver to all businesses. In this case, it’s not the postal company making the decision to not deliver to Tesla but rather the union. Therefore the postal company is unable to make the deliveries due to circumstances outside of their control.

The WHO are just relaying information from the Chinese government. So I wouldn’t trust it.

So much of this is fucked up beyond belief.

Being to told to “sleep off” her water breaking is just horrific. I’d expect anyone with even the most rudimentary understanding of pregnancy to know that her water breaking means that birth is only hours away at the most, she can’t just hold it in for two days.
