  • “All passengers were safe because they were local residents of Alama village,” said Ramadhani, adding that the village is in a mountainous district which can be reached only by helicopter. A joint security force was deployed to search for the attackers, who ran into the dense jungle.

    So Papuans hired this guy to get them home, and when he did, their community murdered him. Guess Papuans need to learn to fly or never leave their homes if they live in a mountainous village.

  • Property taxes are the base funding for numerous local government services, including sewers, water, roads, jails, deputies, school building construction and teacher salaries — “pretty much the most basic of government,” said North Dakota Association of Counties Executive Director Aaron Birst.

    I guess if that's really what they want to defund, then go for it, but don't expect any federal dollars.

  • One video I saw some twenty years ago was so disturbing due to how clearly distraught the female was that I haven't been able to think of koalas the same ever since. Like, she might have developed koala PTSD, it was that brutal.

  • "Environmentally friendly"? No, they use crazy amounts of power.

    "High-paying, long-term" jobs? Working in a data center may be in the tech field, but it doesn't offer what people think of as "tech money" and your opportunity for advancement is slim. Data centers also don't need to employ large numbers of people. They just suck up space and resources.

    Edit:

    The data center industry’s demand for electricity is growing so much that it could threaten Washington’s efforts to transition to a carbon-free power grid....

    The original bill required each data center to create at least 35 permanent positions at 150% of the surrounding area’s average personal income.

    A second bill, approved just a month after lawmakers passed the first tax break, gave recipients the choice between creating 35 jobs or just three positions per 20,000 square feet of server farm space, whichever was less.

    Oh look, I was right. Could have told you all that before the state wasted money on this.

  • Lion of Judah instructs its trainees to report anything fishy to the ministry first before reporting their concerns to election authorities, which Taylor found chilling.

    "The scariest thing to me: I can actually imagine these true-believer types manufacturing evidence of voter fraud while believing in their heart it's real," he wrote. "I study these election-denying Christians day in and day out – they are truly disconnected from reality and the fact-based world."

    Yeah, I think that's about what we are all expecting.

  • It was bullshit that she was arrested for something stupid, but she did break their laws, and it's also bullshit that she got out of it just because she was some semi-well-known athlete. Oh, and it's bullshit that an arms dealer got released to secure her return. She really fucked up.
