Yes, but why?

I combed that article and couldn’t find a reason, I’m with you. I think it’s due to Ukraine, but it’s not confirmed.

- Comment on MY BODY IS READY 1 week ago:
As detailed in the complaint, the defendants’ alleged scheme has three main components. First, an agreement to fix the price of peer review services at zero that includes an agreement to coerce scholars into providing their labor for nothing by expressly linking their unpaid labor with their ability to get their manuscripts published in the defendants’ preeminent journals.
Second, the publisher defendants agreed not to compete with each other for manuscripts by requiring scholars to submit their manuscripts to only one journal at a time, which substantially reduces competition by removing incentives to review manuscripts promptly and publish meritorious research quickly.
Third, the publisher defendants agreed to prohibit scholars from freely sharing the scientific advancements described in submitted manuscripts while those manuscripts are under peer review, a process that often takes over a year. As the complaint notes, “From the moment scholars submit manuscripts for publication, the Publisher Defendants behave as though the scientific advancements set forth in the manuscripts are their property, to be shared only if the Publisher Defendant grants permission. Moreover, when the Publisher

Ty, I really like SJW, they’re pretty great here.

These are seasoned ex-redditors here, do you think trying to antagonize them is going to work? Move along.

They haven’t gone that far yet, but they’re on their way. I didn’t think they were like that in the beginning either, but they certainly were advertising themselves to be the best place to go in the beginning for some unknown reason. They now try and take over every community and/or shut down smaller ones. An admin was curating things, which isn’t a great sign. Granted, it was just an admin, but I’m not welcome there anymore. They act like reddit, so I think of them like reddit. That’s just my take, you’re totally welcome to disagree, and you obviously do. I didn’t see the value in spreading out in the fediverse, now I do.

If I watch too much fantasy world or read about it too immersively , I think about how all of their powers are normal to them. Light, fire, storms, electricity, the states of water, tides, giraffes, etc., they’re all magical. We’ve just named them and have ways to describe how they work in an orderly, understandable, format.
- Comment on YouTube creators surprised to find Apple and others trained AI on their videos 2 months ago:
Still not the creator’s fault, it’s the fault of the companies that do it. Why would they believe that companies they grew up trusting would steal their content? I thought Apple was supposed to be so great? I guess they’re POS just like the rest of them.

It’s extremely hard to just move to another phone or internet company. You have to threaten, lie, waste 10 hours, etc. Internet and phone companies have turned all into Karens, we didn’t start out that way.

- Comment on Toxic PFAS absorbed through skin at levels higher than previously thought 2 months ago:
PFOA is a relatively larger compound, and smaller “short-chain” PFAS that industry now more commonly produces and claims are safer were absorbed at higher levels – up to nearly 60% of one short chain compound dose was absorbed by the skin.
“This is important because we see a shift in industry towards chemicals with shorter chain lengths because these are believed to be less toxic – however the trade-off might be that we absorb more of them, so we need to know more about the risks involved,” said study co-author Stuart Harrad.
“Our research shows that this theory does not always hold true,” Ragnarsdóttir said.

(at one point there was talk of worried insurance companies bankrolling such projects as climate change could bankrupt them)
That would be a nice reset. Of course they’d be back pretty quickly, I just want them to check themselves since they’re ruining America.

I agree. They’ve also come a long way since the original cable were put in for communication in 1858.
- Comment on Billionaire bets big on largest solar project ever proposed to deliver power across oceans: 'At the forefront of the clean energy transition' 4 months ago:
This seems pretty cool. It’s no crazier than putting a communication cable across the oceans and we already have the support for that. Is there something I’m missing?

The moment they started collecting your bookmark history and hiding it really well is when I knew they were heading towards the dark side. I don’t think they’re they’re there yet, but I might be naive about it.

It’s the privately funding thing, I’m sure Australia has men’s clubs like the Eagles, Masonic, etc. My guess is that if they offered tickets to purchase, there would be the discrimination? You can’t sell something and not offer it to everyone. OTOH, that doesn’t make sense because we have timed tickets and members only tickets here in the US, do they have something like that in Australia?
- Comment on Just 57 companies linked to 80% of greenhouse gas emissions since 2016 5 months ago:
During this period, the biggest investor-owned contributor to emissions was ExxonMobil of the United States, which was linked to 3.6 gigatonnes of CO2 over seven years, or 1.4% of the global total. Close behind were Shell, BP, Chevron and TotalEnergies, each of which was associated with at least 1% of global emissions.
In this long-term analysis, Chinese state coal production accounts for 14% of historic global C02, the biggest share by far in the database. This is more than double the proportion of the former Soviet Union, which is in second place, and more than three times higher than that of Saudi Aramco, which is in third.
Then comes the big US companies – Chevron (3%) and ExxonMobil (2.8%), followed by Russian’s Gazprom and the National Iranian Oil Company. After that are two investor-owned European firms: BP and Shell (each with more than 2%) and then Coal India.
- Comment on Jeffrey Epstein's Island Visitors Exposed by Data Broker 5 months ago:
I’m sure people who sued Epstein, Prince Andrew, etc., would have wanted those locations. If they could prove they were both there during that time, a lot of litigation would have been settled much faster. Also, maybe (I doubt it) some of those people could have been stopped.
