Good comparison and data, but I’d like to point out that the leading stats are actually 16k civilians killed in Ukraine (and 46k injured), as per the source. While in Gaza there are 72k direct deaths and 172k injured (mostly civilians and 50% women and children)

It’s disgusting how Western governments still approach one country with all possible sanctions, and the other is just business as usual (and finger wagging if we’re “lucky”).

It’s crazy to think that this is basically more powerful than the Apollo Guidance Computer that got people onto the moon. It costs 3 cents, and we use it for shit like this and then throw it away. What spectacular waste.

Firefox has implemented many of the same features that Chrome has recently (groups, split tabs, vertical tabs, reading mode etc.) but has also consistently been implementing them earlier and better. There are just so many small annoyances with these features on Chrome that aren’t there in Firefox, and Chrome is always late to the party.

The golden era of Chrome is long gone, probably because the most competent people working at Google have moved on.

I’m all for spacing capitalists, but I don’t think there’s enough of them to blot out the sun.

In a past life, I would feel sorry for the carnage, but Israel deserves every single missile fired at them and 10x that amount

The idealized market was supposed to deliver ‘friction free’ exchanges, in which the desires of consumers would be met directly, without the need for intervention or mediation by regulatory agencies. Yet the drive to assess the performance of workers and to measure forms of labor which, by their nature, are resistant to quantification, has inevitably required additional layers of management and bureaucracy. What we have is not a direct comparison of workers’ performance or output, but a comparison between the audited representation of that performance and output. Inevitably, a short-circuiting occurs, and work becomes geared towards the generation and massaging of representations rather than to the official goals of the work itself.

What profits? All AI companies have major losses. Except Nvidia of course, which just sells the hardware to the other companies so that they can make a loss.

At best, this will just socialize the losses made by decisions of capitalists.

Oh hey, it’s the “capitalism is founded on the idea of workers owning their workplace” person.

Shitty article has link to non shitty source. If you critical thinking skills were as developed as you think they are, you could click on it.

Trump phone? I was surprised this was not The Onion

The article is factually correct and links to another, more popular source. What is misleading about it?

Biased, yes. So what? If you are still neutral in the face of Israeli crimes, you are complicit.

Every year there’s maybe one decent song and a bunch of generic pop crap. It’s famous because it’s a manifestation of modern chauvinism in musical form.

Most of their profits are paid out to shareholders, like last year, and the year before that. Nobody should expect anything better from any capitalist corporation.

A new report by Human Rights Watch argues that the compulsory use of the Tuscan dialect as the primary language in schools in Italy raises “serious concerns under international human rights law”. At the time of adoption, only 2.5% of the population spoke Italian. This ongoing cultural genocide of 2 centuries has led to some not knowing their own regional dialect, and in some extreme cases, to people from different Italian regions understanding each other!!1

Yes, this news is so silly, that applying the same logic in Europe makes it read like an Onion article.

Hey, that’s not fair! They also nuked 2 civilian cities just to prove their might. One of the biggest war crimes in history for which nobody was punished.

Yes, this has been my main account for the last year. It’s cute that you noticed.

What do your astute analysis skills tell you about Europe’s collective Stockholm Syndrome that the US “saved” them from the nazis?

Yes, they both had a part, and the USSR’s part was significantly more important. But I know that might get in the way of your American exceptionalism fantasy.

US saved Germany in 1945

Lol. 8 out of 10 nazi casualties were inflicted by the Soviets. That’s the conservative estimate

That’s pocket change for Google, which made $132 bn profit just last year. They can sell it and write off the small difference as a loss.

Cybertruck is so futuristic it doesn’t even have wheels!

It’s a feature, not a bug!
