  • Britain is Losing its Free Speech, and America Could be Next

  • That was lost a while ago, but it's nice more people are noticing that it's getting worse.

  • RBG did the same thing.

  • Democrat Touts Opposition to Starvation in Gaza — But Blames US Protesters

  • She was recruited by the CIA right out of school, speaks multiple languages, several tours in Iraq, worked for Bush and Obama, Security Councils, etc. and about a decade ago she was one of the key people in establishing Israels QME as US law(It's basically the agreement where the US gives them top-of-the-line weapons and technology).

    I wouldn't believe she was on the side of starving children even if she sold everything she onws and went there herself and personally started handing out food.

  • Retire? Oh you're funny.

    She is 100% planning on dying in office. She's obviously one those people who are obsessed with leaving a "legacy". In her mind she's going to be remember as the first female member of the House and a groundbreaking feminist who made way for others, etc.

    Which would have probably stuck if she'd retired a decade ago. Now she's going to remembered as a greedy ghoul who intentionally sabotaged other politicians and held back society to enrich herself. This is too little, too late.

  • Mastercard and Visa face backlash after hundreds of adult games removed from online stores Steam and Itch.io

    Jump

  • That's their goal for sure, what I mean is how are they pretending to justify it?

    The same way they always do: "WONT SOMEBODY THINK OF THE CHILDREN!?!?!?!1111"

  • Jeff Bezos and Other Billionaires Live on an Island Without Septic Tanks: Now They Want to Dump Their Waste on Neighbors… For Free

  • Many billionaires live on a man made island ioff the coast of Florida?

    It's inside the Miami metropolitan area.

    Last cenus was in 2020, showing 41 homes and 84 people across 0.43 sq mi/1.11km2. It is sometimes referred to as "Billionaire bunker", because it's a gated community on an island, and the one bridge in and out has a police checkpoint, it also apparently has its own government and law enforcement. If you try to get close by water, a police boat shows up.

  • Pete Buttigieg says Democrats should hammer home Trump’s Epstein cover-up

  • Why are dems endlessly talking about what messaging they should do?

    Because it's all about the optics. They don't actually do any of those things, they just want people to think they are.

  • Linux's Modern NTFS Driver Will Now Correctly Handle Symlinks Created On Windows

    Jump

  • This is like seeing those php jokes in programming humor communities. Because they're clearly made by someone who is well over a decade out of date with their information.

    For reference symbolic links were properly introduced in Vista(2006), but junction points were available before that.

  • Itch.io deindexes NSFW games after becoming the latest target of skittish credit card companies and anti-porn group Collective Shout, catching an award-winning indie and more in the crossfire

    Jump

  • Exactly. They "crawl" category/tag lists, etc. and follow links. And if there are no links to those pages, they wont be indexed.

    (Depending on some settings. For all I know they've set up "hidden redirects" for popular crawlers to pages that show them)

  • Itch.io deindexes NSFW games after becoming the latest target of skittish credit card companies and anti-porn group Collective Shout, catching an award-winning indie and more in the crossfire

    Jump

  • edit: right, respective tags list no porn games anymore.

    Which could cause them to no longer be indexed by search engines depending on other settings. So you'd need to find direct links from other websites.

  • RFK Jr. is considering firing all the members of the influential preventive services task force.

    Jump

  • It's intentional.

    The people who put them into those positions of power want their money. Him firing these people will cause deaths and people will demand a solution. Then they'll announce some "amazing" private solution that will be worse and cost more.

  • Deindexed/delisted, not removed.

    Try putting the names into the search field on the site, or browsing for them in the categories they are in.

  • Does anyone else find it suspicious that there wasn't any criticism on here about Stop Killing Games until after it hit 1.4M signatures?

    Jump

  • Not at all.

    More attention means more people see it, so even if the percentage of complainers haven't changed, there are more people who know.

    On top of that, there was criticism before. There's that streamer who was mocked relentlessly in comments and some defending him, there were articles about game developer lobby groups complaining that were posted here, etc.

  • US tech CEO resigns after Coldplay concert embrace goes viral

    Jump

  • If you do a "germany walmart before:2023" search, you'll find a bunch of English articles about the whole ordeal. It was in Forbes, NYT, etc. almsot twenty years ago because of how badly they failed on multiple levels.

  • ‘Japanese First’ party emerges as election force with tough immigration talk

    Jump

  • Don't forget that like most racist and anti-immigration parties of the world, they have ties to Russia.

    The head of the party of course denied this, as he did in the past when he tried to claim that Russia wasn't really responsible for the war in Ukraine...

  • Two UK pro-Palestine organisations have bank accounts frozen

  • Put on some traditional TV news and you'll basically be told that there are no civilians there.

    The average boomer think the entire place is 100% terrorists. They're not told about the suffering of innocents. And this isn't me speaking about America, I'm talking about non-conservative European news. The amount of propaganda is mind boggling.

  • The turntables

    Jump

  • None of the documentation or statements by US officials are consistent, and appear to include a bit of lying. So people are leaning towards him being at least partially correct in his accusations.

    In short, they saw the picture and then began an extended interview where they made a bunch of false claims, and used made up reasons to deny him. Then later claimed they used more reasonable argument, which also doesn't really hold water.

  • Japan sets new internet speed world record — 4 million times faster than average US speeds

    Jump

  • Yeah, I've had a fiber cable running all the way into my apartment for over a decade, and directly into my router for years.

  • Once again, America shows how "free" they actually are.

    And to show that the protection is not theoretical in Europe: Walmart implemented that policy when they tried getting into the German market twenty years ago. They were so insistent that it took a judge to tell them to stop it since it was against the law(It's sraight up against the first and second article of the German constitution, which protects personal freedom).
