  • Gaza is literally a fascist ethnostate while Israel is the most ethnically diverse country within thousands of miles. And Hamas's method of "fighting back" is murdering thousands of innocents and rejecting any form of peace. You explicitly support terrorism?

  • It would slightly increase wind resistance. Every car has weather stripping, making water not a concern even for comparatively very large gaps.

  • Regardless of whether you think it's justifiable or not to bomb buildings with both militants and civilians, it's not a war crime.

    But beyond that, you're claiming Palestine isn't doing war crimes‽

  • I'm sure you're fighting against marijuana legalization then to improve public health too.

  • The only explanation I can come up with is that the workers and Altman both agreed in monetizing AI as much as possible. They're worried that if the board doesn't resign, the company will remain a non-profit more conservative in selling its products, so they won't get their share of the money that could be made.

  • If the workers actually quit and jump to Microsoft, they would be in a much worse position than they are currently in.

  • Not great but likely better than they've had, which isn't saying much.

  • Each post refers to the poster's home domain as the canonical URL, regardless of which instance you're viewing it on specifically to avoid duplication SEO concerns

  • So you wouldn't find anything offensive with "Solidarity with Israel", "Solidarity with Russia", or "Solidarity with Afghanistan" since their governments do not represent their people?

  • Much better to take a literal terrorist organization's word at face value despite video evidence to the contrary, of course.

  • No, Section 230 protects TikTok as a platform. He would have to sue the ad creator.

  • You're saying that the solution would be to hold TikTok liable in this case for failing to prevent fraud on its platform? In that case, we wouldn't even really need a new law. Mostly just repealing or adding exceptions to Section 230 would make platforms responsible. That's not a new solution though. People have been pushing for that for years.

  • This is just more misinformation, actually. Thanksgiving festivals were common in Europe before the colonization of America. See Lammas and Horkey. The settlers just continued their traditions in America. The native Americans had similar traditions, but the idea wasn't anything new to Europeans. Canada's Thanksgiving has moved around a lot over the years, but its current day was chosen to separate it from Remembrance Day. Its timing has nothing to do with Native holidays.

    I don't who "they" are to really respond to the rest of your comment. You're kind of painting the Indians with an extremely broad brush. Almost nothing will be true about all the cultures of an entire continent. The Pilgrims primarily interacted with the Wampanoags, but they didn't have a written language and there's certainly no evidence their tribe existed for 25,000 years.

    There's a common belief among the Iroquois that it should be considered how actions will affect the seventh generation, but the idea that that's in their constitution is a common myth. The Iroquois Confederacy itself was only formed about 1450. If you read the Great Law of Peace, it bears no resemblance to the US Constitution. Calling it plagiarism is ridiculous. There are not even any significant references to the Iroquois by Congress in the 1780s. This is another modern myth which originated in the last hundred years. The Iroquois constitution wasn't even written for a democracy.

  • The article says there were no signs of breaking in, so it is strongly implied that it was someone he was close to.
