Yeah the whole “I love unions, but we at this company are a family so we don’t need that”, is peak anti-union talk. Throughout history it’s been used by people who are horrible to their employees.

I’m guessing they’re the ones who keep pushing the “europe abusing africa” memes recently as well, since they’re the ones doing it now.

Let’s not skip over the fact that he probably got the dynamite from an abandonded house, so it’s most likely pretty old.

And there were detonators there as well.

I’ve read these stories multiple times now and I still don’t quite understand what’s happening.

That’s because it’s mostly lies and propaganda not aimed at you, but the Russian people.

Russians have been burning those offices for over a year, with it ramping up after people started getting forcefully recruited. Russia as always is trying to say it’s not “real russians” doing it, but people influenced by “the evil west”. It’s their standard strategy when it comes to pretty much any set back, ever. In this case it’s mostly blamed on “evil ukranian scammers”, so they can keep justifying the invasion and occupation.

Part of the problem is that they slap “AI” on everything, and many people think it’s actually intelligent, and not what amounts to the old school chat bots with more power.

Add a dab of lavender to milk, leave town with an orange, and pretend you’re laughing at it.

Why the fuck anyone is humouring these clowns is beyond me.

Answer: Money.

They hand out money like candy at Halloween.

It’s the conspiracy theorist mindset:

They’re people who wish they were smart, and can’t handle that they’re not. So they latch onto ideas that most people agree are dumb. Then use that to convince themselves that they’re super geniuses who have realized the truth of something that even scientists couldn’t figure out.

Then when they’re challenged with evidence or facts, they double down and start insulting or even assaulting people in response. Because they don’t see it as evidence in an argument, they just think the other person is calling them stupid and that really strikes a nerve.

TL;DR: They’re in denial and project their own self-hatred onto others.

It’s a link aggregator that finds an available file to stream to you from servers that already have the full file, which may or may not have been assembled from a legitimate source or torrent.

That’s literally the argument they use for torrents as well. They don’t host any material, just point to it. And they are still being taken down left and right for breaking some law or another in regards to that.

While true that they’re not polluting for fun, many corporations will try to avoid any anti-pollution measure that will lose them money. To the point where they spend billions of dollars every year to lobby governements, enviromental protection organizations, and drag out regulations with lawsuits. Because in the long run it’s usually worth it for them to pollute, as long as the investors see enough profits in the short term.

They were already fined in South Korea in January, for lying about the range(it was only $2.2m, but it shows that there are regulations and ramifications).

And it looks like there is evidence of them intentionally making their “remaining distance” softawre lie, and more. So it wouldn’t surprise me if the EU is getting involved, which means there might be much bigger fines coming.

It’s the classic metric issue.

A third or so of the country wants America to “lead” and not “follow”. So they resist change they percieve as being pushed on them from outside, no matter how logical or beneficial.

It wouldn’t surprise me if Zuckerberg hired them.

The memes about him have been a lot less derisive, and recently they are semi-positive towards him/meta, people were reasonable in the response to his green screen grilling video and there are jokes about them changing the Threads logo high up on lemmy, etc. And he registered an X logo as trademark to potentially counter Musk.

But honestly we might never know. I doubt they went to work for someone as self-destructive as Musk.

There are multiple stories like that from several people.

Apparently there were people at Tesla who were effectively employed to get fired when he was in one of his moods.

And if you read enough of the stories it all comes down to basically a single PA who kept him away from important things. And that person stopped working for him shortly before the public realized what an asshole he is.

And after learning that, I can’t stop wondering who they work for now… And I want to see a show based on their biography.

Mostly messed up because he dumped all the kids, some as young as 5 to walk around on roads without sidewalks and such.

Our school bus drivers threw four kids off once without any real consequence. They ended up walking to school. But they were 14 and were laughing at the driver while vandalizing the bus.

Don’t even have to go that far back: Italy is massively corrupt with organized crime running parts of the country and with a literal facsist representing them in the EU Parliment(Mussolinis granddaugher in fact). This current prime minister that is being referred to in the post is a self-proclaimed “national conservative”.

And the fact that they kept letting Berlusconi run things is all the proof you need of how corrupt the entire country is(his “controversies” part on wikipedia is so large that it has its own page with 160 citations, he is also connected to the party of the person mentioned above).

But it has some amazing tourist locations and food, so people gloss over that as well.

It’s more that conservatives in general think an attack on something they like is a personal attack on themselves.

This is groundbreaking; Blizzard would normally rather nerf 99.9% of a game to rebalance it, rather than reverting a single change and admitting fault.

Although I’m guessing it’s because tons of streamers and high level players complained to people at blizzard directly, saying they wouldn’t play or promote the first season if they couldn’t power level.

That’s fair.

I was mostly venting my frustration over those silly posts anway. Since as long as humans have physical bodies, we will at times need individual transportation. And they sometimes act like literally everything in life can be done through public transport and excpeting people to bring home a couch on the bus.
