Plan B is to lie about it and never face any consequences.

It’s ok buddy, I said you’re right. Half of America is not anti-woke. You can move on.

the new 1,500 kilowatt (1.5 megawatt) Flash charging stations

Must be nice. In Spain the charging infrastructure looks like it’s literally designed to torture EV owners.

So you think by ‘half’ I mean literally 171185316 people. Yeah, you’re right, it’s not exactly half. You won this argument. Congrats.

Have you seen the results of last elections or were you asleep?

If people cared, they would revolt. They would stop working and stop the economy funding the most genocidal military.

You sound like you’re 10. What are you doing to stop the genocide? Did you stop working already? Are you living in the streets in protests?

First of all, not many people will decide go to prison in protest. Easy for you to say to do it. Would you be able to do it? How are you resisting what’s going on in US? Are you writing this from prison?

Second, if entities outside the state will judge Florida colleges why would people have to go to jail in resistance? Won’t those entities force Florida to revert this?

In what world would that work?

Not all sociology professors are left leaning and universities are controlled by TP USA. Anyone breaking the rule would be quickly suspended and most likely prosecuted. Do you think there’s not enough room in prisons to fit sociology professors? Or that they are essential workers and the state would not function without them?

Half of Americans agree whit this shit. Florida would (and probably will) simply become the go to place for fascist to get a degree.

Yes, we don’t live in a perfect world because we don’t want to. We could all agree to stop fighting but we collectively decided that it would be too boring.

Such a simplistic take. Wrong as well. Of course people care about atrocities. People cared a lot about genocide in Gaza. Did it help? No, because everyone realizes Israel is backed by the most powerful military in the world so no one suggesting idiotic solutions like invading West Bank. Kamala lost elections partially because she didn’t oppose the genocide strongly enough. Americans didn’t for Trump because they don’t care about it. They are simply stupid.

UN tried to intervene in many different conflicts. I cited report about it. Did you read it? If you did you wouldn’t claim the convention is a scam. Countries do send troops trying to help. Most of the time it doesn’t work and things turn ugly. The treaty was signed when people believed you can send peacekeepers somewhere to stabilize the situation and protect people. Now we know it mostly doesn’t work. You don’t seem to have a better solution, you just complain we stopped doing the thing we know doesn’t work. You would still naively drop some troops in West Bank and Gaza to “protect civilians”. This is primary school level geopolitics. Fantasy land. The issues with this “solution” are so obvious I’m not even going to list them. We let genocides happen not because we don’t care but because we don’t know how to stop them. So far we only know bad solution. My comment was saying exactly that.

deploying their troops to Gaza and the occupied west bank to protect Palestinians

Ok, sorry, I though we’re being serious here but I see we’re playing fantasy geopolitics. In that case I agree. Signatories of the convention should have sent the big bad wolf to huff and puff and blow the deadly gas away from the Kurds. And then the entire world should invade West Bank. Donald Trump should lead the charge himself, preferable mounting a unicorn.

This looks desperate. They already sold $300B worth of data center capacity to OpenAI and this move will save them up to $10B.

They sell software that sits so deep in people’s stack that replacing it takes tons of effort. Companies calculate that it’s cheaper to keep paying Oracle than to rewrite crucial services.

I tested all the alternatives and NordVPN was the only one that worked well with my work VPN. What alternatives do you know that work in parallel with tailscale?

It’s called Hybrid warfare: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_warfare.

Yes, everyone who’s not controlled by Russia agrees they are waging Hybrid war on EU. So far the response was purely defensive though.

https://ecfr.eu/publication/from-shield-to-sword-europes-offensive-strategy-for-the-hybrid-age/

Some politicians are slowly starting to talk about more “operational” response. At this rate EU will start offensive operations about 2 years after Russia takes over Vilnius.

You can suspend their rights. That would actually be the perfect solution. They stay in the common market so EU’s economy would not be impacted in any way. You just don’t let them vote. Sanctioning the shit out of them would be even easier. Suspending rights has to be unanimous but I’m not sure who would object it. Slovakia maybe? It’s hard to believe EU would not be able to push this through if they really wanted. Anyway, can’t or don’t want to is equally pathetic here.

Lucy Letby. You’re right, she’s probably number one. Also probably innocent. Many expert came out to say the evidence used to convict her was bullshit.

So we’re going back to my first question you didn’t answer. Are you suggesting that invasions in order to prevent genocide work differently than all other interventions? You have a government, insurgency or some guerilla forces planning to commit genocide. How are you going to stop them if not by doing what was done in Iraq, Afghanistan or Haiti?

Saddam was genocidal. Haven’t you heard about gassing Kurds? How would you suggest signatories of the genocide convention intervene to stop him? Yes, US didn’t really care about it and attacked because of oil. You’re still suggesting US should have attacked him, only for a different reason. Or, asking again, do you think atrocities he committed should have been prevented in a different way? How?

Imagine reading “Jews in Poland win court order limiting illegal detentions in concentration camps” back in 1939. This is how this headline sounds to me.

“One of UK’s most notorious child killers” is such a crazy title. How many notorious child killers are there in UK? Which one is THE most notorious?
