I’ve sat next to many a passenger who was dead from the neck upwards.

Why is my dog going nuts? Another victim of AI slop.

Well it helped petroleum products for a while.

Good news if true. Setting and defending personal boundaries is essential in any relationship and especially dealing with a narcissist. It’s not that different at the international scale.

The pattern I’m seeing is a corrupt government not to be trusted. You have a fraudster in charge and his henchmen are Nazis. The fact that those agents were convicted of stealing money is not a good sign.

The judicial system in America is obviously not about what is written in their legal statutes or the veracity of the evidence presented. Otherwise war criminals, fraudsters and rapists like Bush, Cheney, Trump and Clinton would be in prison. It is about advancing an agenda for a white male US hegemony and that explains most of the outcomes, e.g. black people being enslaved in prison. Ulbricht thumbed his nose at the establishment and they got pissy. Assange and Snowden revealed their crimes and they hunted them to the ends of the earth. The CIA and their stooges, the Swedes, fabricated a rape allegation against Assange that was quietly dismissed, unfulfilled, seven years later. This establishment will stop at nothing to assert their authority and you wonder about evidence in the Ulbricht case?

No. The evidence against him was fabricated because they didn’t have any evidence.

That growth is disproportionately benefiting the ultra wealthy so this is good news. I’m sure they will change their ways and not retreat to their NZ bunkers.

There are some examples of buyers exploiting the returns policy for expensive items. The buyer initiates a return of item but never sends it, gets item and refund.

Meanwhile they are getting fucked in the actual war.

Dude

On the other hand when women complain about threats from stalkers the police do nothing. You might as well delete the word justice from this criminal justice system.

You need to find someone you trust. There’s no technology that can prevent someone disclosing data if it’s their job to work with that data.

If you treat people with respect and pay them well, you will be amazed at what they give back. Especially autistic people, they tend to have high personal integrity.

America still behaves like it’s in the colonial era. It is the country that has been invading sovereign nations, sabotage and economic warfare. Nobody likes a bully.

We have to be the thing we want to see out in the world. If we want open source communities and an internet free of corporate influence then we have to do the work required to build them. It’s not going to happen by magic.

The 4d chess version of this story. Money is the universal solvent for problems.

She’s not wrong. At least half the country is dumb as rocks and a good proportion is racist and generally bigoted. America has eroded its international standing to an unprecedented low.

I thought Dubai was trying to create tourist resorts? Can’t think of a worse advert. These people are essentially cave dwelling desert nomads from the bronze age who no one would have heard of if not for our oil addiction. Another failed former colony of the British.

How about the zero emission vehicles that are already within our grasp like trains and bicycles? The solution is not to continue pushing 2t single occupant vehicles around, it’s completely unsustainable and doesn’t address the issue of generating the vast amount of energy that it entails. You will never escape F =ma, we’ve known this for 500 years.

We cannot ever trust the things business people say. Their stock and trade is lies. Why are we letting our society be dominated by these psychos?
