  • You could extend that remark to any clothes prominently displaying pretty much any brand as far as I'm concerned. You're paying extra for the privilege of being a walking advertisement.

  • But aren't the seas the sharks of the seas ?

  • Trump attacks judge on Truth Social moments after gag order hearing

  • And that's why we need fines proportional to an individual's actual net worth.

  • 4 Germans caught marking Hitler's birthday outside the Nazi dictator's birthplace

    Jump

  • So they made his birthplace a police station, which I guess is not the worse idea if you don't want to take it down. But as long as it's there, you know it's going to be used as a symbol and a place of remembrance for the idiots who are nostalgic of the good ol' fascist times.

  • Russia warns Europe: if you take our assets, we have a response that will hurt

    Jump

  • What are they gonna do ? Finance far-right parties in all of Europe to sow discord ? Oh wait.

  • That's what terms of service, didn't read is for. They summarize and grade the ToS of all kinds of services for you(spoiler : it's all terrible). There's also an extension for your favorite browser.

  • Zelenskiy thanks Germany for new Patriot system at 'critical time'

    Jump

  • Both France and the UK have sent SCALP/ Shadowstorm cruise missiles to Ukraine, so I don't get what you're referring to. The Taurus would be interesting for Ukraine because of the longer range this weapon system has.

  • Suicide is on the rise for young Americans, with no clear answers

  • I think it mostly comes down to increasingly unfair distribution of wealth, which leaves people with no hope to better their standards of living.

    Our civilization creates things with constantly increasing productivity, which should lead to better pay and less time spent working, and more time to live a fulfilling life. Instead, all this added wealth is funneled towards a few mindbogglingly rich individuals.

    This happens with the help of a sizable fraction of the population, which has become convinced that their mediocre situation is in fact caused by even poorer and more miserable people, rather than the assholes siphoning everything and everyone from the top of their already obscene piles of riches. And there's no sign of this changing anytime soon. No wonder people are desperate.

  • International court rules Switzerland violated human rights in a landmark climate judgment

    Jump

  • You realize that the court is not saying no one else is to blame right? This case was brought on by 2000 swiss women, they are suing their own country for failing to take action as a way to force the hands of their government.

  • "Permission is Hereby Granted" -- MIT License text becomes viral “sad girl” piano ballad generated by AI

    Jump

  • "Permission is Hereby Granted" always makes me sooo emotional

  • More and more people are ditching carrier roaming in favor of travel eSIMs

    Jump

  • Beware of Switzerland !

  • TIL: You can easily check eggs for being bad or fresh

    Jump

  • Exactly, the egg floating doesn't mean that it's not edible anymore, just that it's old.

  • 'Humbling, and a bit worrying': Researcher claims that models fail to fully explain record global heat

    Jump

  • Except that "there are 26 climate feedback loops that are ignored by most models" is a clear misrepresentation of what the article you linked to actually says, which is that this scientific team has identified 26 amplifying feedback loops, including some that the researchers say may not be fully accounted for in climate models.

    "Some may not be fully accounted for" is a far cry from "ignored by most models". Spreading this type of false narrative on climate science only helps the people who use the "we don't know enough about the climate to take any action" excuse, please don't contribute to it!

  • Call for UK utility firms to face higher fines for ‘street scars’ on pavements

    Jump

  • I don't even understand how you end up with tarmac instead of pavement in the type of street pictured in the illustration. I mean isn't it just faster and easier to put the block of pavement back into the hole it left once you're done ??

  • Backend Infrastructure

    Jump

  • I know that's probably the case, but some people might not know, and thus not grasp the extra humor.

  • That's an actual picture of the OVH data center that burned down.

  • Brazil's Bolsonaro's vaccination records are false, authorities say

    Jump

  • Well, at least this shows he's an actual conspirationist idiot, and not only faking it to please the mob while getting secretly vaccinated. So, kudos for the sincerity I guess?
