It was a joint US-Israel-Britian effort, that was going fine until Israel modified it to do more which allowed it to escape the target and be found out by international security researchers. Up until that point, they thought their engineers were screwing up.

It’s War.

Maybe, but just like with Stuxnet they’re go fucking overboard and fuck it up.

Glossing over the larger deal in that most people sign up for them as minors and they can’t be cleared through bankruptcy.

It’s not his party. He used the party to run for President, and people whine about how the party didn’t fall in love with him. Maybe he should I don’t know, join the fucking party and build a base of support. Otherwise he’s just mooching off them.

the people who liked Bernie for his anti-authoritarianism and who held their noses for the leftist stuff.

You know… Morons. Privileged assholes.

Not really. It benefited Republicans to not attack Bernie to make Clinton look worse. Had Bernie won that would have changed. They had a ton to attack him on, and we’ll never know how well it would have worked. The kind of bullshit they got people to believe about Clinton was insane. I still hear some of it today.

This makes me laugh. You all whine about how unfair the DNC, the Media, centrists Democrats were to Bernie, and that caused him to lose the Primary. But you assume had he won the Primary that the Republican Party and Donald Trump would not have made all of that look like absolute childs play? If you can’t defend yourself against the DNC and CNN, you’re fucked when you go up against people that will just straight up lie about you. Using polls from when the GOP hadn’t said anything about Bernie is pointless. It was to their advantage to act like Bernie was perfect, it hurt Clinton.

Because Bernie was entitled to the nomination? There’s a ton of authoritarian shit coming from Bernie fans. Between this, wanting to change the rules of primaries when he lost, wanting to ignore the popular vote to make him the nominee etc.

She had all those advantages in 2008 and Lost to Obama when more people voter for him than her. Quite simply Bernie received less votes than Hillary in 2016, and the endless list of excuses weren’t unique to him. There is a massive bias online that Bernie was more popular than he was. He never beat Hillary in nationwide polls and had major holes in his strategy and campaign that he never over came. He’s a great person, not a great politician.

the GOP never unleashed their attacks on Bernie, so those polls don’t mean much.

It’s both to further US interests and to not allow Adversarial interests to take over. If the US doesn’t do it, Russia and China will.

Has he written anything specific up on it, or is he grandstanding?

and are assumed to not understand how strategic voting works

That would be a correct assumption. I’ve seen twice as much apathy come out of Bernie fans than Progress. This war is a good example. We can all disagree with how they go about what they are doing, but the idea that they should only be defending will lead to more attacks. If the US just increased airport security after 9/11 and didn’t go after Bin Laden, you better bet they’d send more. The answer isn’t doing that they are doing now, and it’s not doing nothing. Bernie might have the right idea in a ideal world, but in reality it’s not a great take and it makes other Democrats look bad that are having to make the difficult decisions which again spreads apathy. I don’t think there is a good solution to the problem without going back in time and not letting the West arbitrarily divide up the middle east and fuck everything up in the first place.

Dumb. Just release it. Every day Google waits is just another day Apple’s AirTags remain superior. Why would they change?

Luck’s got little to do with it. Dogs were selectively bred for those traits.

Scissors?

Uh huh. Your kid. Sure. 🤣

I’m paying artists more through Spotify premium than you are through torrenting their music 🤷‍♂️

What ads are you talking about? Music on Premium/Family has no audio ads period. The home screen offers music to listen to, but most are either genres you listen to, or overall popular items. I wouldn’t lump these in with ads for paper towels or fast food etc.

Podcasts are free and ad-supported. You might be able to get ad-free if you go out to each producer and subscribe. I think Wonderly did that maybe?
