This is fantastic, the downside of course, if the general population being taught by their governments that COVID isn’t to be feared, but lived with, and most importantly “worked through”. The capitalist system doesn’t function without it’s workers, and the corporations don’t want anything disrupting their bottom line, including covid mitigations, which is why you see Right Wing nutjobs telling everyone that COVID is over, and there was nothing to fear in the first place, while in the span of 12 months over One Million Americans died. Corporations, aided by the Right Wing bigots, don’t want COVID air detectors anywhere, as they would invariably detect COVID. Reminds me of that movie where the king said to save arrows, and send in the infantry, because arrows cost money, and people cost nothing.

Arabs are from Arabia, Jews are from Judea. Hope that helps. And if it doesn’t we really couldn’t give a shit, if it’s not one thing with you people, it’s another, we’re pretty used to it by now. And we aren’t going anywhere.

You say that as if it’s a bad thing, Jews in their own land, willing and able to defend themselves against the Arab colonizers, who could live in peace if they chose to, or you know, fuck off back to Arabia, which is their own land, at anytime, but choose not to.

As if it’s been anything but that, ever in it’s existence? The PA is Gaza, Fatah is Gaza, Hamas is Fatah, there is no discernible difference between any Palestinian group whatsoever, as an identifiable discernable difference would mean one is more willing to work towards a lasting responsible peace with Israel than the other, and no Palestinian group, faction, camp, or town has ever honestly worked towards one, ever.

Play silly shell games for another 70 years, it’s cool, the Jews can wait. And defend themselves.

It’s a book. Fuck their book. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

In big tech 30 million is a rounding error

Twitter didn’t lose anything, Musk bought Twitter because he thought it’d be a goof to trash, and because he wanted access to Saudi Arabian markets to sell his electric cars and rocket ships.

These stories are so fucking annoying because they purposely miss the point of what’s actually happened.

Elon Musk personal worth went up 97 Billion dollars since he bought Twitter, he’s now worth, on paper 248 Billion. He can take a complete loss on the investment, and not be any the poorer in real terms.

bullshit

that’d be the point I’d forgo smartphones entirely

This is the dictionary definition example of a win win

why would you want to join another piece of shit social network that jack started only to increase engagement by allowing nazis, and every other stripe of fascist right wingnut almost complete autonomy, so he can once again sell it and/or your data to the highest bidder, after he gets bored again. believe the fuckfaces when they show you who they are the first time.

which IS THE problem for new organizations whose only revenue comes from either subscriptions or advertising, and they’re getting undercut by the linkers who share their headlines/links while charging ad rates on the pages that host them. you can refuse to “get it” all you like, but it’s why governments from Australia and Canada have finally decided to enact laws to force these aggregators to pay those from whose links they’re aggregating.

they charge money on presenting those links, traditional journalism is being relegated to the dustbin because google is siphoning off all the ad revenue which would traditionally be going to the actual content creators (re: publications), without the links, google would have nothing to charge ad rates on for their “results” pages. publishers/journalists aren’t asking for much, and google/meta are telling them to kick rocks. classic robber baron/monopoly bully tactics at play here. and now you know where you stand.
