  • US was saying this over and over and it is finally doing it, which is getting out of Middle East and letting them on their own. This is why there's also so hard push for EVs.

    The policy is to allow selling weapons, not to give them, it is also not what Bibi hopes that US will enter another war and fight on his behalf.

  • It was a fire hydrant, duh!

  • When he is talking about stable genius he means the building.

  • twitter was pile of garbage even before Muskow bought it.

  • I thought Wagner was integrated back into the main army.

  • Superpowers? China and what else? You mean the country up north that can't finish their 3 day operation in Ukraine has no economical or geopolitical significance and no one put them in corner only because they have nukes?

  • Yet this time US is doing the right, helping defend a country where both US and Russia promised to respect its borders.

    Moscovy Russia was never on the right side of history. In world war too or actually worked with Nazis and they invaded Poland in 1939 from both sides and continued working together until Hitler backstabbed Stalin by starting operation Barbarossa which was devastating to USSR.

    That's when Stalin switched sides. After getting equipment from US and sending countless Ukrainians to the front against Nazis they eventually stopped them.

    This is why Russia doesn't recognize World War 2. They call it Great Patriotic War and according to them it started in 22 June 1941 (when Hitler attacked and they switched sides).

    I understand internal propaganda to make Russians think they are the good guys, but it is sad that many westerners are not aware of it.

  • Yeah he said this in 2001, it might be a different meaning he had, but other heavy metal bands had their own meaning.

    Besides, the way Dion did it is actually offensive in Italy, for example https://content.time.com/time/specials/packages/article/0,28804,1874098_1874099_1874139,00.html

    The sign he is taking about supposed to be with fingers tilting downward or in level position, not point at specific person and without movement.

    Also while he popularized it, he wasn't first one it looks like it was first used by a rock band that was into occult in 1967.

    Lol, also in the debut album of Coven, the featured song was called Black Sabbath, the name of the band Dio was in when he used the sign for the first time.

    Ozzy was known for using a peace sign, Dio wanted something similar, but didn't want to copy it, so he used the devil sign from Coven and then in 2001 came to with the grandma's story to not make it look like he ripped it off.

  • The devil horns are basically a symbol of Satan. The metal folks were doing it for performance reasons (to look badass, kind of similar as many hip hop artists want to look as if they are criminals in gangs). They were also used to stick it to the satanic panic of the 80s where they were labeled as Satan worshippers.

    What is that symbol supposed to mean in this context? With a politician? In a cementary? Next to a grave? Of a soldier that is of a Christian faith?

  • So is the guitar.

  • Ok, now they are clearly going too far with DEI hires/s

  • The allegations are that he is a dickhead, and him resorting to hiring a flashy lawyer to fight it pretty much confirms that.

    He is not a defendant here he will be a plaintiff in those suits.

  • Looks like Steve Jobs turned things around.

  • In some cases it works, in some it doesn't. PostgreSQL for example for huge support after Oracle got control of MySQL, despite the license.

  • There are some red flags for me:

    • first I doubt anyone compiled the code themselves and use what's in the app store
    • the insistence to be tied to the phone number
    • refusing to work if you don't update (in the app store)
  • Same, never watched it before. I was expecting a pillow fight.

  • He actually declared he was running right after the DOJ announced the investigation. Only after his announcement Jack Smith was appointed special counsel, to remove any appearance of it being political.

    Of course that didn't stop him from calling it that way anyway.

    The real reason he is still running is to avoid jail.

  • With ICAAN introduction of new gTLDs now they can drop .NET and pick up .ONLINE
