Somehow I feel like “I was just following orders” is going to be a sufficient defense in this case.

UNESCO cathedral in Odessa after Russian missile attack
Reply in thread
The cluster munition attack with the highest known civilian casualties occurred on April 8, 2022, when Russia launched a Tochka-U ballistic missile equipped with a cluster munition warhead at a crowded train station in the eastern city of Kramatorsk as hundreds of people were trying to leave the area. A detailed Human Rights Watch investigation found that the attack killed at least 58 civilians and injured over 100 others.

Meta being fined $100k a day for personalized ads in Norway
Reply in thread
Facebook somehow makes about $18 per person on the planet in ad revenue.
Norway is 5 million people or $90 million/year all else being equal.
$100k/day is $36.5 million/year.
So, it’s less than it should be by probably a factor of 4-5, but still not so small they won’t feel it

I’m sad we don’t get to see the end of July valuation until the end of August

Cluster bombs: Ukraine using munitions 'effectively', says US
Reply in thread
And the ruskies are using them in civilian targets.
Beyond that, know what else has a chance of exploding well after the war and injuring or killing someone?
You know what both Ukrain and Russia have already use many thousands more of than Ukraine has been issued cluster munitions?
You know what no one is moralizing about so hard they shit their pants?

You’re entitled to do whatever you want.
But people who speak in dog whistles, even obvious ones like this, don’t answer when asked about their dog whistles.
I’m going to stick with assuming one word dog whistle comments with scare quotes aren’t made in good faith.
OP is of course free to refute.

Twitter's valuation has been slashed by 47% at Ark Invest since Elon Musk took over
Reply in thread
I don’t think it was even that. He was so 100% going to lose the fight to not buy Twitter that even for someone with his resources it wasn’t worth fighting. He made a weak attempt to embarrass Twitter into backing out due to public opinion, but didn’t really have any options after that. He just fucked up that magnificently with the initial contract.

1994 was a good year for cinema.
We used to make midbudget movies. Of those, probably speed is the most expensive and it’s budget wasn’t insane.
It’s good they are coming back

Plant a Trillion Trees and Pump That Gas, House Speaker Says

You’re right and you’re wrong.
You’re right that methane emissions are a bigger problem than CO2 and they are drastically underestimated.
You’re wrong in dismissing CO2. Regardless of North American emissions, atmospheric CO2 ppm is increasing and we need it to decrease. Afforestation is one of the only reasonable ways to achieve CO2 reduction. Climate modeling also suggests that more forests could have other beneficial effects(increased rain, local temperature stability in shorter heat spikes) in attenuating extreme weather beyond CO2 drawdown.

Poland to close border with Ukraine if EU doesn't extend grain ban - Polish Prime Minister
Reply in thread
It’s mostly the Black Sea blockade. The number I heard is that at best they can ship about 1/5 by rail they could by sea and it’s way more expensive. And because they use a different rail gauge than the rest of Europe everything has to be unloaded and reloaded, it can’t even go direct to a port.
