Actually we do: She joined the ground defense line for the 4th Jeju raid.
- Comment on Brian Eno: “The biggest problem about AI is not intrinsic to AI. It’s to do with the fact that it’s owned by the same few people” 2 weeks ago:
Sure, but despite all the crypto bros assurances to the contrary, the only real-world applications for it is buying drugs, paying ransoms and getting scammed. Which means that any non-zero amount of energy is too much energy.
- Comment on How Tesla blew its lead. 2 weeks ago:
Tbh, that would have been extremely simple to come back from: Fire his ass. The issue is that they didn’t.
- Comment on 🐸 time 4 weeks ago:
Heat tolerance will also not help against the increases in storms, floods and wildfires that are directly caused by the heat increases.
Summer being 110°F is not even in the top 10 of why climate change is bad.
- Comment on Amazon Boycot March 7-14th | No Purchases. Its time to disrupt the system. 4 weeks ago:
One thing Amazon is better at (at least here in Germany) is free shipping. But seeing how that is a least partially responsible for creating a cutthroat delivery market, where companies contract out delivery work to barely self-employed drivers for barely any money, paying for shipping doesn’t seem like a bad idea (even though I know the drivers won’t really see any of that money in the end)
- Comment on In Response to Amazon preventing to download books you bought: Some DRM free bookstores and publishers 4 weeks ago:
There’s an archive of books belonging to a certain anna, which has not failed me yet.

Incidentally, Aurora Store is unable to find this particular app.
- Comment on Mexican President Threatens to Sue Google Over 'Gulf of America' Label on Maps. 1 month ago:
There’s a slight difference in that “Ostsee” is the common name. If the German chancellor decides to call it “Deutsche See” tomorrow, the name would continue to be “Ostsee”, because that’s how language usually works.
“Gulf of America” is just a dictator’s wish of a common name. The people of OpenStreetMap decided to use the tag “official_name:en_US” for that reason, while keeping “Gulf of Mexico” for the commonly used “name:en-US”.

The US and Gaza might suffer, but I got this really nice high horse to sit on.

Do you not have to actually use patents to keep them?
- Comment on After Musk gesture, activists project 'Heil' on Tesla plant 2 months ago:
They’re probably referring to § 86a StGB, which makes it illegal to use symbols of unconstitutional or terrorist organisations.
Symbols explicitly covers flags, badges, uniform patches, slogans and greetings (for obvious reasons).
- Comment on After Musk gesture, activists project 'Heil' on Tesla plant 2 months ago:
I mean, yes. We definitely know how to support someone literally doing a Hitler salute.
And we’re confident enough that there is no valid reason to ever use that gesture that we elected to prohibit it by law, yes.
- Comment on No Frills PCB Brings USB-C Power To The Breadboard 2 months ago:
You connect power there.
This device literally does exactly this, coming from a USB C connector.

Let’s not pretend they’re not doing that as well.
- Comment on Yevgeny Prigozhin had the training, the alibi, and the jacket but what was his motive? 3 months ago:
Prigozhin with a folding chair would be an amazing plot twist for when people get bored of the Ukraine war.
Seems unlikely though

Maybe we get something with a story instead!

World be worth getting for the multiplayer alone. That was always good fun, unless you were among the people that could not connect to anyone because
you forgot to sacrifice your unborn child to the sun godof some strange networking reason.
