This thread is a year old why are you here?

as a democratic nation its probably a bad idea to allow a small number of businesses to control content distribution. Apps should be regulated based on their actions and practices, not national origin.

disinformation does not become a good thing when produced domestically.

there are exceptions to every rule

Imagine throwing an election because you love genocide too much.

It takes a particular kind of brain rot to believe that people who don’t live in america, and don’t do the majority of their business in america, care more about influencing the american people than those who live in america and do the majority of their business in america.

The ban is for the interests of politicians who want to stop the discorse happening on tiktok, and tech companies who want to run a shortform video site and have been unsuccessful in creating their own.

If tiktok is doing what they are accused of, reasonable legislation would ban that practice. When the bill is written to try and let google or facebook buy a successful implementation of shortform video, you know you have an entirely corrupt government.

Unless you are capable of violence you cannot be peaceful, only harmless.

They hold every social media company to the same equal standard. Facebook, twitter, google, bluesky, and tiktok are all equally forbidden from operating while chinese.

This is in no way targeted, like not even a little bit… honest

The headline credits the car for the agression. The car didn’t do it, the driver did.

Its called opera.

the word you’re looking for is plurality.

Majority means over 50%.

The settling of the “new world” is one of the few times in history that intentional spelling reforms actually took.

Noah Webster published a dictionary with his preferred spellings, and because those dictionaries that disagreed were an ocean away, we spell things with less vowels and also we sometimes put our E’s and R’s in a different order.

From the previous times details about the typhoon were posted to try and get the devs to add the plane.

Not very effective.

For the rich to get the message you have to hit them where it hurts, in their wallets, their balance sheets, their portfolios, or their vital organs.

Effective peaceful protests do this. If your peaceful protest doesn’t make a businesses have a loss it will be ineffective.

there are plastic 3D printed guns where the barrel is plastic. Its springs and the firing pin that would need to be metal. When your gun only needs to work for a dozen shots with subsonic ammunition, 3D printed plastic can be fine.

The shizo abe deleter was also was also homemade from weak materials. That’s enough when you only intend to use the gun once.

There are real processionally manufactured guns made mostly from plastic like the glock, and there are new strong printable plastics. 3D printed guns are feasible, people make them as a hobby.

look it up if you’re interested.

3D printed plastic guns have been a thing for many years now. Not every part is 3D printed, they do require you to source some metal parts to make it work. But the majority of a gun can be created in plastic in a printer.

vigilante justice is the only justice when the worst crimes are legal

even if it is the same plan, ceos steal enough to afford any medical bill.

Seems to be fake. Author Phil McKracken seems to be badly spaced and is a name often used for practical jokes, and doesn’t appear to have written any other articles.

Fake image, but the story of him being shot and dying from it is real.

Me too. Arch 950. Not cared enough to research a fix. Changed my keybind for suspend to lock the screen instead. If there’s a solution in this thread I’ll try it probably.
