UK Has Passed The Online Safety Bill
After bouncing back and forth between the house of lord's and the house of commons This bill is a shadow of it's former self. I'm glad to say.
Three things that were massively damaging for privacy and security have, as far as I can see, been scrapped.
And what's left in the bill is going to be regulated by Ofcom, a toothless underfunded shell of a regulatory body.

Virginia Giuffre, Prince Andrew and Jeffrey Epstein accuser, dies by suicide
RIP. She was a fighter and a hero.
We can lament the lack of full justice but please let's not forget this woman's massive achievements...
Epstein died awaiting trial. Maxwell is doing 20 years. Andrew is a social pariah who has been ejected from the royal family. And everyone around the world knows about Epstein's trafficking ring.
None of this would have happened without Giuffre's tenacity and bravery for so long in the face of insurmountable odds and incredibly powerful people.
It's not justice until every charge is answered for and every perpetrator faces trial. BUT.. this woman achieved so much and deserves to be remembered as such.
Let's not frame her as a downtrodden victim. She's a fucking fighter. And she won an astounding victory. This woman felled giants.

You're reinterpreting the comment and doing so in a way that misses the crux of their argument.
They are commenting on the cartoon being a vengeance fantasy against women. Which it is.

Poland says it will no longer supply Ukraine with weapons
Before the pitchforks get handed out we should take a moment to remember that Poland has given more aid to Ukraine as a % of GDP than almost any other country. The only countries who have done more are Latvia and Estonia.

Thanks for pointing that out, it is Discovery's decision. For their part though, Sony is still at fault as they didn't demand perpetual use rights for content sold on their store, or at least a full refund for the customer.

I think that's how it's been justified but the company just sold so it's not worthless anymore right? Can't have it both ways.

In 2000, Clarence Thomas was deep in debt, complained about not having enough money, and talked about resigning from the Supreme Court. Then the lavish gifts began to flow.
Selling out the American justice system for a fucking RV. His principles are cheap.

NATO chief calls Trump ‘Daddy’
This is what diplomacy with a narcissist looks like, and everyone is doing it. Trump whisperers are in hot demand.
The bit I find funny is trump is so dense he doesn't even realise he's being spoken to and manipulated like you would a child. In this case for a good cause, so well done Rutte.

Trump turns the White House lawn into a Tesla showroom
Seeing musk, trump and a Tesla in a single shot just makes that toxic association so much stronger. I don't think this is going to play out like they hope.
Plus, you know the boycott is working, talk about desperate.

Some members of the staff also felt their compensation was better than they might otherwise have earned in India, the defense argued.
Is this a real lawyer? They clearly have no legal case. I hope the book gets thrown at them.

Goodbye to the Cybertruck - the EU bans Tesla's vehicle en masse for failing to comply with safety regulations

And 'banned' makes it sound like it was at some point allowed here.
It just never passed regulations. Not a shock.

Why Cities: Skylines 2 performs poorly
It looks like the biggest culprit is poor or non existent lod's on the models. Strikes me as odd though as that's a pretty basic art requirement for a game like this. I don't see how this took them by suprise.
I guess the good news is that's it's easily fixable. It's not like ksp2 which looks like it has some pretty unsolvable core issues.

I think that was potassium-permanganate and sugar. It was one of the saner recipes ( who really wants to blow their face off or smoke banana skins ) with somewhat easily available ingredients.
It was legit. But the temperature window between melting the ingredients together and igniting it was very narrow. We did what your friend did, we made the smoke bomb and also set it off in one go.
Your friend must've been in a while ton of shit.

and none of it is indeed by search engines. No one else will ever be able to Google their problem and find the answer. All the useful knowledge put into a box and buried. It's just awful.
