Yeah, somehow I doubt that Mossad will go after the leaders hiding in Qatar. And that's not because they can't, there are a lot of Nazis who could vouch for their capabilities when it comes to assassinate people in other countries.

Exactly. Leningrad 2.0 certainly wouldn't look good for Israel.

No worries, brutal action against Gaza will also result in dead Jews. So that works out fine for them.

It both is the case. But it should be really obvious to anyone that even a horrific terrorist attack doesn't just absolve Israel from international law.

I don’t fucking get on how Israel has never really tried forming a state in which both palestinians and jews can live in peace together.

The Zionist terrorist of the British Mandate period were founding members of the state of Israel. For example Menachem Begin who later became a founding member of the Likud party which Netanyahu belongs to. These asshats from the start wanted to get rid of all Palestinians/Arabs and get the whole country for Jewish people. That's why the Zyonist terrorist fist targeted communities where Jews and Palestinians/Arabs were living together in peace. Netanyahu is just continuing this goal and he would rather die than to allow for a stable two state solution to become reality.

Whoops. Thanks for the correction.

You would need to get rid of the "first past the pole" system anyway to allow for other parties to have an actual chance. As soon as that's done, more parties can easily be done.

But well, the people who would need to make that happen are the same people who currently benefit from the system as it is.

I don’t know about other people but I am hooked into this story and I don’t totally understand why.

Well looking in from outside it just is really funny to see the Republicans fight against them self. But that's much easier when I don't have to suffer from their incompetence.

How fragile is their regime if it is threatened by race numbers?

Yes.

Will he? He's on gag order from other judges as well and he still didn't give a fuck or felt any consequences for breaking those.

But we can’t get a solid gag order on this animal?!

How? Trump doesn't listen to reason and he has been getting away his whole life with stuff less rich and powerful people would have been thrown into jail a long time ago. That's the only thing he has ever learned. And as long as he keeps getting away with it he will keep doing so.

If we want him to keep his mouth shut and stop interfering into the justice process, he would need to be locked up with no access to any internet.

Hasn't he already violated several gag orders without any consequences? Why should he stop now?

Any other person would have thrown into jail a long time already, but he keeps getting away with it.

Well to be fair, before this they got all of the money for a tiny picture. So in that light they scam a bit less now.

But of course this still is a stupid idea which will decrease whatever remaining quality Reddit has even more.

Taking what Marty is saying and putting it another way - major studio content is not driven by a director’s creative vision in the current environment, but by producers… the suits and their market research.

I'm by no means an expert but was that ever different? Making movies always was very expensive, so the people in charge obviously had to have money and then try to use that to make more money. That alone leads to rather conservative decisions regarding which movies should be produced and which shouldn't. Artistic merit isn't something I believe ever had much sway in Hollywood unless some directors actually used their previous success to bully the rich cats in charge to trust them or outright finance the movie themself. And that I guess is rather rare. I think the only thing really different today, is that market research today is way more advanced than it was in the 60's or 70's.

While I agree that it's rather sad for developer not hosting their Wiki, I really never had any problem with the old hoster of the Minecraft Wiki. I certainly didn't perceive it as a "crappy provider". It did exactly what it needed to and there weren't any intrusive adds or at least not to my attention. But maybe I'm just really good at ignoring adds myself.

Edit: Or mabye my add blocker did help, hard to tell since I haven't seen the internet without it since years now.

NFTs could be used for DRM in a more pro consumer way.

Only if the companies in charge would allow that. And they really have zero incentive to do so. The way it currently is, is way more profitable for them.

Isn’t most art for money laundering.

Certainly not. Millions of people create art every day for various reasons and various success. Heck, artists are generally known to be on the poorer end of society exactly because they often care for the art even if it doesn't sell well. That is the case even for some of the now most famous artists in history. Quite a few of them died dirt poor while their pieces now sell for millions.

Is some art in certain circles used for money laundering? Most likely, but that's definitely not "most" but at best mabye a few thousand pieces which are dwarfed by the billions of art pieces around today.

Sure, but some systems are way more stable since they are established and have the general trust of a lot of people. And others simply don't have that wide ranging trust and as such aren't stable.

Because it's pretty much the same.

At the very core ownership that isn't recognised by the state is meaningless. So that ape picture? No one really cares about some guy claiming to own it because they have control over the token. As long as it's on the internet everyone can just copy it and there's no authority caring about it one bit since NFT isn't recognised as for example copyright is.

Even when it comes to stuff like items in games, these also are only worth anything as long as the publisher of the game recognises your claim to it! And even if they did recognise it, there's absolutely nothing preventing them from changing their minds later. Simply because they create the game however they like and have 100% control over it's development.

The monarchies of Europe were one big family anyway up to WW1.
