According to this it’s just a coincidence.

This graph really shows how the focus on boomers by millennials and my fellow zoomers is really just a distraction from the real issues of class and wealth inequality.

I really don’t get your position. You keep asserting that Starmer is “electable,” but here you acknowledge that his action are alienating to both people within the party and outside of it.

The only thing Starmer has going for him is extreme luck. If Boris hadn’t fucked up Covid so bad and made the Tories so unpopular, I doubt Starmer would have the capabilities to win this election.

It amazing that this “you might not like him, but suck it up to get rid of the Tories” attitude wasn’t present when Corbyn was leader. No, it was an endless tide of infighting, coups and splintering. How are we suppose to take these pleas to get rid of the Tories seriously after watching the Labour Right do everything in its power to hand the Tories the last two elections?

You consider two councillors that make decisions for just under 300K people to be non-entities? What does someone have to be to be worth reporting on for you?

Why not both?

“People pressed into slavery to deliver takeaway” is the kind of dystopian that fiction can only aspire to. Christ.

Everything is biased. Even saying something as simple as “grass is green” is biased, it has the bias of normal colour perception. I’m colour blind and don’t see grass as green.

Writing shit on public toilets is one of humanity’s great pastimes.

Damn, someone really didn’t like the new episode of Camp Camp.

Also, please, RWBY my beloved be OK

To be fair, an ASML engineer explaining some advanced piece of tech would be great ASMR.

Unfortunately no, but they really should.

This seems like some good fun. I’d like to propose Viscera - Carcinogenesis.

Yeah, but pair it with the exact wording of how Stallman walked back the paedophilia comment:

Many years ago I posted that I could not see anything wrong about sex between an adult and a child, if the child accepted it.

Through personal conversations in recent years, I’ve learned to understand how sex with a child can harm per psychologically.

It’s importan to remember that Stallmen only considers people up to the age of 13 children.

AI will also process and condense reports from hundreds of public consultations held by ministers. The drafts will be verified by staff to check sources and catch inaccuracies.

Ah, so it’s not going to actually alleviate any work for civil servants. Instead they have to sift through and correct a bunch of AI hallucinations, on top of their normal duties. Marvellous.

No state that includes Quebec can be considered great.

Also why is Utah highlighted.

He did more than oppose the Iraq war, he was very friendly to the Hussein regime and made regular trips to the region, he even had lunch with the foreign minister.

It would be weird if the OTW just outright stated that fanfiction was copyright infringement, starting off from the position of “yeah, it breaks the law” would be a bad form of advocatory. The case they link on that FAQ is about a parody of (at the time) 20 year old song, which is materially very different from how fanfiction works. I do think if it ever did go to court that a non-commercial exception would likely be carved out, but as it currently stands I don’t think there’s any precedent in either my own country or America that can be used to argue that fanfiction meets the criteria for fair use/dealings. Then again, I’m not a lawyer so my opinion probably isn’t worth much.

(sidenote: it’s mad that American copyright law doesn’t have an explicit exception for parody)
