  • HOAs had a significant role in prohibiting black people from owning homes which, along with redlining (prohibiting mortgages by banks) carved out entire areas which only allowed whites. HOAs don't have a great history.

  • Nobody's mentioning the article says "the United States imposed sanctions on the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague."

    Which means that US companies may not provide services or products to the ICC. Sure it sucks that Microsoft complied but the federal government is to blame.

    "Under President Trump, the US has taken a decidedly less friendly stance toward the European Union and its member states. These geopolitical tensions mean that it is up to the business community to smooth things over. Microsoft, for example, is adamant that it will defend itself in court if Washington demands access to European citizens’ data. In fact, the encryption and access management of sovereign cloud services should make access from outside the continent technically impossible"

  • There's a theory called the "Monopoly on violence" which says that people will allow the government to commit violent acts against them as long as they believe that the government is legitimate and that there is no other group that can do this.

  • I'm loving Doom Dark ages, I'm on about level 8 out of 22. I like that there's enough room in levels to move around. Movement is awesome, you can just run everywhere. The weapons are extremely effective and your toolkit is reduced so you have shield-block shield-slam shield-throw melee and then guns. It's pretty easy to remember everything you have and then select an appropriate attack for the situation.
    I really love it. Hopefully there aren't any more Mech-pilot missions because that one sucked. The dragon wasn't my favorite either but you can make it through without much difficulty and it didn't take forever.

  • If we have half of last year's deaths at 5 months (instead of at 6 months), then it is an increase of 16% which, for weather, is within the scope of what I would expect from one year to another. It's about 4 more deaths in the first 5 months than last year.

    Of course this year's deaths might have been lower than last year without Trump's intervention. It's possible his actions will cause dozens of deaths by the end of the year.

  • People don't wish to help fight the war on drugs. Why should they? Are you destroyed by people's indifference to drug advertising or are you making a general statement not necessarily about this story? Are you okay with legal prescription drugs being advertised? Or is it the illegality that's a moral issue with you??
