Yeah, but aren’t the cops afraid to enter classrooms with gunmen?

This is similar to what we’ve done on aussie.zone. Go to a bar, order the drink, get receipt, write username, take photo. One of the admins spent a bunch of time, and a bot to sort through the photos.

Apparently people were quite creative, i really want there to be a record of that creativity somewhere in the future, sounds so fun.

Maybe they could donate the record of that little episode to some alternative social media museum in a couple decades. I think theres something about the demands of age verification and the creative ways of respecting online privacy that event produced that has some historical value.

Whats up with all the weird spelling in that article? The = signs in place of letters are very prominent.

Is it some sort of anti-ai thing they’re trying?

Ah, no your argument is definitely on the same page then, but at different ends of that page.

So your disagreement goes to degree of breaking and ability for remedy.

Their argument is, the degree of targetting and surveillance has surpassed normal constraints while the ability for a remedy within the normal constraints of the social contract is no longer possible.

To take your example if a murderer is arrested and tried then order is restored and with it the social contract begins to heal. If the murderer however isn’t arrested and tried, then continues to murder, then what alternative remedies are available to be resorted to.

Its a breaking of social contract argument.

Its bad when everyone does it, the point isn’t whether its a good thing to do or not. The social contract only works if people largely adhere to the conditions. The argument is that these people have broken their part, therefore are no longer entitled to the benefits of the bargain. It is a loss for society in general, and the action is a proposed remedy (as a social cost) aiming to restore the social contract.

Cool, stalagmites but different got it! 😂 I’ll look him up. I’ve heard the name, author and book, never given them a proper look though.

Ooh cool! Will check out. I just went to the first to return in search. Actually second link, i went to wikipedia first.

Oh yeah, i had that same thought about Trantor. The books Are really great so far, i picked up this 4 in 1 book from the local vinnies/thrift store. Only problem with reading them like this is, i can tell i’ll get confused between these four, and which
events occured in which book.

It can also be rephrased as, Russia has been struggling to take Pokrovsk.

Lets do it. Lets count count count.

Corruption has made the US a rotten place, if Republicans without brainrot wish to live in a country that isn’t tearing itself apart again they need to reject the corruption at all levels. They need to reject what they have so far accepted from their side as equally as they’ve rejected the corruption of the other side. The gains they think they’re making under this regime are crumbs from the table of corruption they unleash. There is no reason for anybody to be honest actors if the Republicans refuse their responsibilities to all their countrymen.

Ffs hired security… glad you all went prepared, but thats such a ridiculous need to have to think about for a protest.

Hope you stay safe. This was the photo where i thought the people had the most guts to be there. If its really that supportive of your fuckhead in chief, i can’t imagine many friendly onlookers.

Although, i suppose with the smallest voting bloc being republican, and largest being non-voter, maybe you’d get more disinterested people than outright aggression.

A general strike is a mass work stoppage in which a substantial proportion of workers across multiple industries collectively cease https://museumofprotest.org/methods/general-strike/

Are we agreed? Fucken great.

I remember reading about a japanese bus strike where the bus drivers kept doing their job, but stopped collecting the money.

There are also examples from around the world where healthcare workers go to quite serious lengths to ensure delivery of service is maintained while a nurses/doctora strike is taken.

So a general strike could be an option, but isn’t necessary to send a message. In fact more targetted strikes that leave dialogue and service on the table shows the protestors acting in good faith, potentially opening different avenues to bridge the divide between childish-oligarchic-cunts (management/upper class), and the workers.

All i’m saying is theres more options than blowing up the system, and staged, measured, predictable responses to the others actions can be extrememely effective in showing the often ridiculous demands of the other side’s position.

Someone should run with their platform as, ‘Make Dog Rock Great Again!!’

They’d be named emperor of the Great Southern within weeks!

If CPUs go, things could get dark…

My bad, thats if we lose STCs.

Oh cool, reminds me of the C&C underground missions in Red Alert, taking Tanya through the base. I always took so long with those missions, but i’m a natural turtler.

What are the two communities?

I only ask out of general interest as its such a specific number, if you’re not comfortable sharing, don’t feel obliged.

I get that with some people to, happily i get it in the other direction as well, i tend to enjoy Macklemore even more when i hear his lyrics or consider some of his career choices.
