oh brother lmao

out of the goodness of his heart im sure

Capitalists need to be regulated (forced) to play nice, without that it's gonna be the same song, same dance for the rest of time. And it's not gonna happen anytime soon by the looks of things

Same. And I'll chalk this up to there being multiple providers (fiber and broadband) in my area so no one can really afford to be too sloppy

Data harvesting is a lucrative business. You don’t need to have a good product with todays internet, you just need to have access to a lot of insanely personal data, and yahoo has both an expansive advertising network and hosts hundreds of millions of email accounts. They're just Google except they don't pretend to care about anything else

Yep, it seems that behind all the smiles and handshakes Zelenskyy has seen the writing on the wall

quick question what languages do america, mexico, brazil and haiti speak?

Discrimination is just American?

I see. My bad

as long as states like Iran aren't getting access

This is kind of the whole argument against nuclear proliferation though. The more bombs that exist, the harder it is to keep it out of the hands of completely unpredictable groups like iran. You have allies to radical Islam all over the world, it's how you get the kind of coordinated terrorism on the scale of 9/11 and the Paris attacks. Even one single security slip up might be enough to completely fuck us all.

The barrier to entry between terrorists and nuclear weapons needs to be kept watertight, rock solid, and a mile thick, and you really can’t expect that on a global scale, it's just the law of large numbers. The risks of proliferation therefore, in my opinion at least, are completely unacceptable

Edit: also I just want to mention that the swords/guns metaphor really doesn't work because this is a problem that potentially concerns the security of literally all life on earth. There is no historical precedent beyond a few decades of REALLY precarious history. That precedent is being set every single day with every policy and every minute to minute decision. The danger to humanity is very real

Thanks for the (second!) completely unprovoked swipe in this thread but it's a minor inconvenience and I like my instance just fine

Mike though? How is there any universe where this wasn't scripted

Ohhh wait does it depend on the instance your account is hosted on?? And not the instance you're on?

no offense but i don't think I've ever heard this opinion before, may i ask why

we did most of the work ourselves tbh

step 1. invent light speed communication and connect all of humanity to each other

step 2. do not under any circumstances regulate it or the people who control it

step 3. lose everything

Europeans seem like they constantly need reminding of this. You people are also fucked for a myriad of reasons

costing us the election and then rolling out the red, black and white carpet

Shit shit shit just everywhere all shit
