Listen. I agree, but don’t use the r slur. It makes you sound out-of-touch and makes you look like an asshole.

“Doug Ford is glad there were no casualties.” Dude, 17 people went to the hospital, what’re you talking about? Did he mean fatalities?

To be fair, Germany has laws to get rid of the AfD and needs to enforce them. Just like the US and Trump, failure to enforce would leave no one to blame but themselves.

The issue I have is there is no surpassing to happen here. We’ve platued on possible AI milestones, so the only new move will be the next big thing… which is impossible to predict when it’ll happen.

It’s not a question of if your urinary tract will explode, but where.

Edit: Also OP article updated to reflect that

Very cool. Make it permanent, 'd be even cooler if ya did

I have chronic gout. If I don’t drink enough water, I’ll be in some serious pain in a few days. Is that enough to remind me? No!

Education isn’t just about job prospects. You need a well educated populace in order to inoculate them from mis- and disinformation. It also further protects democracy, but that isn’t on China’s to-do list, I’m guessing.

Here’s a dark thought about that common saying… it wasn’t the cat’s curiosity

Not America

But I was assured by lemmygrad that they were helping historical colonial countries out of the goodness of their own hearts. /s

OP, there’s a strike and members of The Guardian staff ask that you don’t share links. Don’t cross the picket line

Since geopolitics switched to neoliberalism, Governments are unable to respond to the needs of their citizens. This has led to an increasingly fast-paced game of hot potato where any leading political party looks incompetent as economic disaster after economic disaster crushes more of their citizens. In this climate, the anger of Nationalism/Fascism becomes easier to swallow, since it has “answers” to your “problems”.

That, plus moneyed interests need to keep climate change going in order to make all the money, so they embrace fascism rather than competent Government.

Crystal Beptism

… really? They’re still being fought in the courts. Like, what the fuck commentary is this? “What about the thing you’ve been trying to do this whole time?” Yeah, they’re still doing that.

Hey. You’re the one shoveling disheartening shit, not me. Pretending a general strike would be easy here in the states is one of the other reasons why it’s so fucking hard to do. Every time someone half-asses one, people buy into the hype, and then nothing happens makes it less likely for an actual general strike to happen. It’s a logistical nightmare that could only work if you got unions to buy-in, and that would require coordinating contract expirations to coincide around the time you want the strike to happen, since unions in the states can’t legally go on a solidarity strike. I’m definitely not saying it’s impossible, but crying that it’s actually really easy and the fact that America hasn’t done it is because we all actually like the taste of boot is the actual demotivating opinion to shovel.

Refuse? This was called by unions. In the US, that kind of union activity is illegal. What system do you think we can use in the US to call for a general strike that enough people would 1) be aware of the strike 2) agree with the need for a strike and 3) be able to participate without harming their livelihoods? Cause in Greece, the answer for all three was unions. Here in the states… I don’t know if anything is setup for that. Even reaching enough people to begin with would be tough.

Like, be rightly angry at the laws in the US that make this nigh impossible, maybe raise awareness, but don’t blame the damn victims.

Yeah, but a fast food restaurant run by teenagers is not synonymous with a kitchen full of cooks lead by a chef.

… why would you keep watching after season 1 when it was super clear they had no idea what to do with this project?
