"The only thing necessary for evil to triumph in the world is that good men do nothing."

Good thing she obviously never got an MRI. Jesus.

You mean repackaged Wine that they're pretending to have invented? Yeah should do.

Developed countries, through education and economic realities, generally have children at or below the replacement rate. Most of their growth comes from immigration from other countries with much higher birth rates.

The incentives you're talking about are there to stabilize the population so there isn't more people in nursing homes than there are propping up the economy taking care of those people. It's a tough situation, and with the capitalist systems in place and a lack of long promised automation in many industries, it's worrying for everyone involved.

So really it's already working the way you want, largely. If you want something more dramatic you need to find another lever, and at the same time you need to balance your goal with the dropping population in the workforce so you can afford to care for the elderly.

Eugenics. The crowd beating this drum always reinvents eugenics with a new mask.

Various countries (mostly the US though) limiting Ukraine from using their weapons in Russian territory.

Though the reasoning is somewhat sound, they want to avoid giving Russia any more reason to escalate with NATO.

Well now there's lemmygrad AND hexbear. Both are chock full of this insanity

The goals of the two technologies are fundamentally different. Jails are closer to Linux's firejails or bubble wrap, or perhaps even LXC and Docker.

Flatpak is primarily for software distribution.

It's much safer. It's just not perfect, and critics seem to imply a lack of perfection is a knock against it.

Missile was fired in Nov 2022.

By Occam's Razor an accident is FAR more likely than a grand conspiracy to eliminate an ally's important military and political target... let me check my notes... yup. A grain silo.

This is "a whole lot of evidence". If he had, for example, a 10% chance to show up suspicious in any one of those charts that's one thing. But to be highlighted as the most suspicious in each is extraordinary evidence. How do you explain a greater than 10% drop in skill when a 15 minute TV delay was put in place? Or his ability to make incredibly complex, perfect moves in seconds? Or his continual, nearly unstoppable strength rating growth, you know, except for the two natural plateaus in rating where most players never continue to grow firmly in the middle of his growth curve?

If that report doesn't convince you, I doubt anything will.

For those who haven't seen it- even if you don't have a background in data science or chess, this report is extremely damning. He's an unapologetic, manipulative, pernicious cheater.

Every Russian I’ve interacted with has expressed their distate for Putin.

The ones you have interacted with online or in other countries are going to be less likely to support due to their age, education, and socio-economic status. Classic confirmation bias.

So could you explicitly point to what the problem is?

Explicitly? There is no simple answer. There has been brainwashing, no doubt. But look at Russian history. This isn't an anomaly. Culturally they appear to favor authoritarianism, nationalism, and strong man mentality in their politics.

The simple solution is education and multiculturalism. But that answer isn't really simple.

Putin still enjoys widespread public support, and the vast majority of the Russian public supports both the explicit goals of the war as well as the implicit ones. This is a problem bigger than Putin, bigger than the oligarchs, and bigger than the current regime.

Dean Phillips is a real one. He represented me while I lived in his area. I emailed him a couple of times to insist on the right to repair, find solutions to police brutality, protect Internet freedom, and various privacy votes.

Each time he personally called me. He himself. We'd have a conversation. And then when new votes came up around the same topics, he'd call me back to discuss. Once a year he'd call to get my opinion on how things were going in general and what I was concerned about. He also holds regular virtual town halls.

I should stress I'm nobody important, and he does this with anyone who engaged with his office.

If all reps were like him, our country would be much better off.
