  • I'm glad UAE had some positive impact in the world for once.

  • I call bullshit on them rebuilding anything.

  • A large factor is probably the increase of phone use. I've walked into a lot of shit looking at my phone.

  • Don't give governments any more ideas.

  • The single use case I can think of are isometric games.

  • Alright you crazy bastards. Go and make this a thing.

  • They also can't leave.

  • What's the joke? Or was that the joke and I don't get it?

  • And their officials have never lied to us about this very thing before, right?

    China is a liar.

  • I'm with you. He seems genuinely focused on his people and country. However the sayings "absolute power corrupts absolutely" and "road to hell is paved with good intentions" comes to mind.

    What I mean is that in wartime, the government seizes a lot of power because they obviously need it. But once the war is over they might keep that power while genuinely thinking that this is the best thing to do to keep the nation safe. And even if Zelenskyy stays benevolent, the guy that comes after him might not. So in my opinion once the war is over Zelenskyy needs to dismantle the wartime institution to restore democracy before he leaves. Reinstitute term limits, limit government control, that sort of thing.

  • That is true, but he need to make sure he leaves the post when the Ukrainian land is recaptured. I admire what he is doing, but I'm worried that the wartime government will create a system similar to Russia, where the government holds all of the power and the citizens cannot correct its course.

  • Feels relevant to bring up since they're putting Beijing and Arabs in the same headline.

  • I know. It's just rude.

  • But the ethnic cleansing of muslims IN China I guess is OK.

  • Doesn't make him right.

  • It's only the morning where I am, but I think I've read the dumbest thing I'm going to read all day.

  • Cyberpunk 2077. Damn good game.

  • Sounds reasonable

  • "Albanese said Australia had traded nothing with China for Cheng’s release."

    I'm pleasantly surprised, but this also could be a lie. I'm glad she's out. There's no justifiable reason it took 3 years.
