Ah, that explains it

Of course, Taiwan is kind of protected by the US, the dominant superpower of the time. But they are struggling, looking weak.

Keep in mind that China is struggling as well. Their debt problems are several times worse than the US, so they could suffer a major recession within the next few years if a significant disruption like war happens.

Now go compare overall homicide rates, without limiting it to gun usage

Someone needs to develop an open source replacement for android auto and really stick it to Alphabet

It’s been like that for decades to be honest. Ceres used to be called a planet, but you don’t see anyone complaining about it’s demotion

Here’s what bugs me: Why didn’t channels like GamerNexus and LTT cover the petition until after Louis declared it dead?

I lean more on the Universal Maximum Income where everything above a threshold is taxed

You literally just described the progressive tax system that every developed country has today

And by doing so you’re normalizing your kids to surveillance, which is a big part of why privacy is being eroded

It’s better than the victim blaming that the Vice article participates in

The BBC has an article that gives a decent overview: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-57853385

And Vice isn’t doing anyone favors by leaning into the transphobia spin: https://www.vice.com/en/article/whats-wrong-with-the-no-trans-dating-preference-debate/

A lot of this is also from personal memory. I was plugged into a lot of different communities 2018-2021on all sides of the aisle.

Thankfully people aren’t yelling at lesbians about this anymore, at least not what I’ve seen. Unfortunately, the damage has already been done.

Also unfortunately, it seems that people aren’t understanding the point of my original comment. And it’s that every group has some number of assholes in it, and it’s up to the group as a whole to make sure that said assholes don’t ruin their reputation.

This isn’t meant to bash transpeople. It’s meant as a cautionary tale to avoid letting a minority of assholes set how everyone else sees the group.

Tbf, a lot of that was driven by the wave of transwomen getting mad that lesbians aren’t attracted to them. And I never saw any pushback against these posts in the trans community.

Was there right-wing groups amplifying the reach of these comments? Yes. Should the entire trans community suffer for a small number of assholes among their ranks? Hell no.

Regardless, the lack of pushback in the trans community and its effects shows the need for groups to self-regulate to some degree. There’s assholes in every group, and pretending that there aren’t is dangerous.

That’s pretty much been my opinion of this entire story arc. It’s felt like it’s dragging on way more than season 1

Firefox still doesn’t support tab groups on mobile. That’s a non-starter for me. Hopfully Ladybird has their shit better put together than mozilla when they finally release their browser

Still in development

At that many calories, it better be intended for multiple dozens of people

Read “Night” by Eli Weisel

Maybe that will finally kill off the giant amorphous blob of human rights violations known as FIFA

I’m switching to Linux soon, and I’ll probably have to swap my NZXT cooler out for a tower cooler since their shitty control software won’t work

After the boring disasters of seasons 2 & 3 and the lazy cliché of Raphtalia actually being a princess this whole time, this show is dead to me. I dont get why anyone has bothered to continue giving this series the time of day, even the light novel readers.

Tbh, unless you’re downloading a DLC size mod or a big 4K textures pack the installs are nearly instant at the moment
