Elon's got Putin's back.

"If I had agreed to their request, then spacex would be explicitly complicit in a major act of war and conflict escalation"

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't SpaceX be explicitly complicit in conflict escalation by interfering with Ukraine's ability to defend itself?

Why was BIOHAZARD (JP) renamed to Resident Evil (US)?

On their Wikipedia, first paragraph of History:

When in late 1994 marketing executives were setting up to release Biohazard in the United States, it was pointed out that securing the rights to the name Biohazard would be very difficult as a DOS game had been registered under that name, as well as a New York hardcore punk band called Biohazard. A contest was held among company personnel to choose a new name; this competition turned up Resident Evil, the name under which it was released in the west.[9] Resident Evil made its debut on the PlayStation in 1996 and was ported to the Sega Saturn.

Let Kids Be Kids

"But what if that kid is making a mistake?!"

Then that is their mistake to make.

Of the already minority population of Trans people, a minority of them report de-transitioning; and a minority of them report doing so out of a sense of regret for the initial transition. Source

I know I much prefer having a minority of a minority make a mistake and course correct, than having a blanket ban on all transitions cause the wrong people think they know better than the lived experiences of Trans people.
