Fuck that.

We’ve caught on to how this works now. I anticipate about two more iterations of tedious, drawn out flip-flopping and misinformation during the remaining steps before we are either finally let in or the whole thing fizzles out.

I’m looking forward to our market share doubling from almost nothing to almost nothing. Still, not a terrible idea.

These guys are literally the last people in the world I would trust to regulate themselves responsibily.

Yes yes yes.

I mean, I have as much of a problem with Musk and his insane antics as the next guy, but is TikTok really an improvement in that regard?

Are we at the point where we have to select “the lesser fascist” when contemplating who should have control of our social media?

Can anyone give a very brief description of the parties in the map legend for those of us not familiar with the Spanish political landscape?

Yeah, I agree that’s probably how this is going to play out; Ukraine cedes some territory to Russia and is allowed to join NATO, hopefully safeguarding it against further Russian imperialism in the future.

In the meantime, we should of course keep supporting Ukraine as much as we can to give them as strong of a position in these potential future negotiations as possible.

Yeah dude, it’s the brand that’s the problem, you’ve figured it out.

After this, everyone will love it.

And as expected, the destructive consolidation of the industry moves forward again, cheered on by consumers celebrating the short term bump to the value of their subscription service.

Seems pretty plausible that the compute required for the “good” version was too high for them to sustainably run it for the normies.

In any other situation I would ask what the hell you guys are doing over there, but as it stands we have pretty much exactly the same situation here in Sweden.

Pretty scary development honestly. Europe really does not need a populist far-right resurgence right now.

You can’t fool us Erdogan, we’ve seen this move before.

By tomorrow he’ll have new demands. He’ll demand Sweden form a space agency and plant the Turkish flag on the moon or something like that, mark my words.

If you want to make this even more monstrous you can try brewing into a cocktail shaker over ice and shaking the crap out of it so you’ll get a good couple of inches of froth on top when you add it to the orange juice.

Yup. Good shows, pretty terrible guy.

Some people seem to frame the shooting as justifiable to prevent the potential danger the kids reckless driving would pose to others. While I personally think this was a completely undefensible escalation of violence on the police’s end, I think there can be some reasonable discussion on what the appropriate level of force to stop the kid from speeding off would be. Sure, why not. Would I argue a person who is speeding away from the cops while shot is likelier to cause an accident involving others than one who isn’t shot? Also yes.

But having a crowdfunder for the individual that did the shooting, in practice rewarding someone for executing a kid for speeding without a license? What the actual fuck?
