This feels unreal.

“former”

Do people outside of tech care?

Which is a pretty counterintuitive russian tactic, Bruce like what better option for building long tables would there be than cheap Swedish modular furniture systems?

Let’s hope there is a way to cure it.

I always thought it was only genetic, so noone could do anything against a wrong eyeball shape. But this seems very uplifting.

I wonder though why this article cites mainly eastern Asian sources. Is the rest of the world not interested in curing myopia?

True. How could it be a free market if corporations are not allowed to form a cartel and agree on a price for a product that is literally vital for many people?

In what countries is it illegal?

“works”

I don’t see how this is world news, in less public settings this happens all the time over here.

Sounds illegal where I am living. Where is this happening?

Does GDPR apply to stackoverflow? Since my data there probably does not identify me as a person?

So how many tons do these things hold?

Article says they ban the original.

Trump is too unironically placed next to two important persons from US history here. Ethically questionable.

So he was unable to go to the bathroom, I guess? Because the plane was not at the gate yet?

Well in that case, as disgusting as this may be, you can’t fine anyone for having bodily functions. I believe peeing in a cup is the right thing to do. Better than on the floor.

Some other countries have the decency to add something like “of the USA” to the name. But this being the USA, of course he is just “the” president.

Imagine if twitter some day opens its gates and starts federating with everyone. Then the musk takeover would have actually improved the world. Even though it hurt his purse a lot, but that is also an improvement I believe.

Sure. But first and foremost the problem is that innocent people get sent to death. Their reactions to that are just symptoms, and not the cause. And the cause is the real problem.

No. It’s a double standard. You can’t send people to death and then complain if they lose their moral compass on the way.

Does anyone really think rape in war is a bigger problem than what is done to the soldiers? You are sending young men to be scared of dying at any point for months until they hopefully finally die. Or they get permanent injuries that prevent them from fighting. In any case, they will have severe psychological trauma at that point, so even if they survive the war otherwise unharmed, they will carry the ultimate punishment in their heads.

A soldier is basically dehumanised. Fighting to death is not a job. It’s severe abuse. And what happens to people that get abused? They likely become abusers too. Sad for women that they are physically weaker and hence make a good target for a male soldier. But rape is not the root of the problem, it’s a symptom.

Want wars without rape? Why not just vouch to end wars instead?
