Normally I’d roll my eyes and move on…
But in this instance I’m going to call service provider protection. It’s not the bus companies fault if you take the bus into town to rob the bank. It shouldn’t be on my ISP to check if I torrent or not. And it’s not on Microsoft what people do with the Azure platform.
They’ve provided a service, which people have used to do bad. That doesn’t mean the service is bad.
… though it is the fediverse and this is Microsoft … so shit away on it
Phone right front. Wallet right back.
Keys left front. You can’t keep a phone and keys in the same pocket. Especially not with the size of modern phones.
Consistency means I always know if I’ve forgotten my phone keys/wallet. There’s never searching or wondering where they’ve gone.
At this point … what stops the CVE foundation moving on as a foundation and working to find an alternative funding model?
Yep… And damn I put so much effort into working that out and still got it wrong
Mid-day should be the middle of the day. Mid-night should be the middle of the night.
If you like more light in the evening morning go to bed late and wake up late. If you like light in the morning evening, go to bed early and wake up early.
Stop fucking with the clocks and making nonsensible decisions
So… Let me check I get this right on the timeline.
America Europe Ukraine meet, agree to a 30 day ceasefire. Agree this tests if Russia is serious about ending the war. Putin gobbs off, surrender or die.
Categorical that Russia is not serious about ending the war.
Next steps boys
Something I noticed recently
The same people who quickly bemoan “everyone wants a label now” seen to be the same people who say “all kids do this like that”.
That was my initial thought.
But also, he was resisting the coup. You can’t have Marshall law with military leaders willing to resist you.
This could well be the point that we (globally) lose the “nobody would be insane enough to allow him to push the button” mindset
Who’s to bet a load of shares get bought up, then suddenly this announcement is rescinded?
minus anything obvious
Honestly, not even that.
I’ve been on a hiring panel (for want of a better term) where we interviewed on the ground floor. We all worked up in the building. Post-interview we wouldn’t say anything, we’d just write “yes” or “no” on a piece of paper. In the elevator going back up we’d turn our cards around. It gave a simple litmus test, if we all agreed then we can go to the pub. If we disagree then we find a meeting room and discuss.
To my point. One hire, technically brilliant. They were technically, absolutely the best candidate we’d had for that role. It was clear. We got into the elevator, and all turned around “no”. The candidate was an absolute arse of a person. Clearly the best person for the job. Clearly the last person I wanted to spend 8 hours a day sitting next to. They knew they were fucking good, and they spoke like it.
I wouldn’t be surprised if that person, knowing they were good, still goes home and rants about DEI hires or similar. But entirely misses the point on why they were not hired for that role.
If only DEI was that literal. Instead, it allowed companies to discriminate based on race, but to those with left-leaning beliefs, that’s okay as long as it only negatively affects white people, because they deserve it!
That’s a lot of talking with very little to back it up.
I’d like some actual instances of companies that have specifically not hired a qualified candidate because they were white.
And “those with left-leaning beliefs”. That’s me, hand in the air and proud of it. “as it only negatively affects white people, because they deserve it” You’re chatting shit mate. That’s not what I or any of my “left leaning” friends believe.
Because they already believe that you are better because you are white. So two people with equal qualifications, the white is more qualified in their eyes.
The party that wants to ban abortion to “save the children” has just condemned, quite literally millions of, children around the world to slow and agonising deaths from entirely treatable illnesses.
When America gets sick, the whole world coughs.
Sadly we’re all in the inside of this one
Emotionally pressuring you to step back from education.
There are plenty of people outside looking in, that would call this abuse.
They want an efficient government not wasting time and resources on unnecessary things …
They get a government crying over the name of a body of water.
Single payer healthcare is fine.
The single payer is the government
If self-assisted euthanasia (SAE) has risen from 0% to 20% of all deaths. Then “other” methods of death must have dropped equal to 20%. If that collection of “other”, is drawn-out cancer, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s etc. then I see this as working. If those conditions have not seen a comparative reduction, and all we’ve done is replace suicide with SAE then I think this hasn’t worked as intended.
Unless it’s circumcision for religious reasons … then chopping off body parts is A’OK.
“think”
They are untouchable until something massive changes in the US
