  • UN experts alarmed by Alabama plan to kill prisoner using untried gas method

  • ? They ARE giving him the nitrogen. I'm guessing these experts didn't want to jump into the Israel fight so found something else to focus on.

    Thoughts on this?

  • According to the Wikipedia, the audio in the documentary was actually edited, shuffled, and played out of sequence. Not that there's any doubt about his guilt of course.

    1. Depending on how you access lemmy, this may not be the case. It certainly isn't for me.

    That said, I would rather have titles be non-clickbaity. Maybe require titles to be non-clickbait and without commentary.

    1. Pass. There's a ton of US news communities already. If it doesn't affect the rest of the world, it's not world news.
    2. MBFC is... Meh? Their definitions of left / right bias seem to be very American and could probably use some adjusting. It's useful but shouldn't be the golden rule.

  • Hindu bus conductor fired for helping Muslim passengers: Does it reflect an increasingly polarised India?

    Jump

  • Really? A bus you were on didn’t stop once in a 5-hour drive in your experience?

    That's not what I said. I said the driver has discretion over where and when to stop during the drive. You're the one claiming otherwise.

    Occam’s Razor

    So you pulled it out of your ass, got it. I love how you dispute the article on the basis of 'it's more probable'. Who cares about facts, eh?

    only people who have never truly lived in India can make such assertions.

    That's funny, seeing as the article was written by Indians.

  • There are designated rest breaks in those long drives

    Source? Because my personal experience says otherwise.

    those two were very likely just entitled

    Do you have any reason to think so, or are you just wildly speculating? You don't even know if they made a fuss, or just very nicely asked if the driver could align the rest break with their prayer time.

  • Experts claim missing MH370 flight could be found in ‘days’ with new search

    Jump

  • Not really. MBFC has itself proven somewhat biased. I'm not particularly impressed with how they described Al Jazeera as 'biased' when they're more factual and balanced than most western sources.

  • Israel 'stealing organs' from bodies in Gaza, alleges rights group

  • Can you provide a link to their actual claim? Other commentors have stated there's no such claim on their site

  • Looking it up - Kaushambi to Bareilly, the route the bus was on, is a 5 hour drive. We're not talking about city buses with 2 minutes between each stop. Long distance routes like that generally give the driver the discretion to decide where and when to stop for toilet breaks, etc. Nobody is going to object to a break of a few minutes.

    In other words, this would have been a perfectly normal rest break if not for the religious aspect. So no, the editors are not wrong.

  • Exclusive: Israeli Military Censor Bans Reporting on these 8 Subjects

  • Yes it's not against the rules, but that is probably more an indicator that the rules could use some tweaking. You yourself agree it's 'eye-stabby'. Why would you not want to prevent such unpleasantness, then?

  • You're comparing weeks of spending to a couple hours at a bar though, I'm not sure if that's really comparable.

    There's a couple other reasons that apply as well:

    Because they get charged less by the bank for lower quantity of bigger transactions, instead of high number of small transactions. Also allows for people who have cash but no card to use the system.

  • Police in China rescue over 1,000 cats from being slaughtered and sold as mutton, pork

    Jump

  • I see nobody in the comments actually bothered reading the article. It's not that cat meat is illegal, it's that they were passing it off as pork and beef. Also some speculation that the cats might have been stolen

  • Kagi search has improved their ultimate plan

  • Probably because they lowered their price significantly a few days ago and it's making buzz
