The nuclear bomb testing in the Pacific absolutely fucked over the people living there. But not all radiation is the same. There's no way this wastewater affects them whatsoever unless they do a pilgrimage to Fukushima Daiichi and start drinking the pre-diluted water.
This is completely ridiculous.
In Minecraft, the immersive game owned by Microsoft, Russian players re-enacted the battle for Soledar, a city in Ukraine that Russian forces captured in January, posting a video of the game on their country’s most popular social media network, VKontakte.
These authors clearly know nothing about Minecraft. Wow, some nationalists re-enacted a battle on their private Minecraft server. Woe is the world! All of Minecraft has been infected by Russian dezinformatsiya!
A channel on the Russian version of World of Tanks, a multiplayer warfare game, commemorated the 78th anniversary of the defeat of Nazi Germany in May with a recreation of the Soviet Union’s parade of tanks in Moscow in 1945. On Roblox, the popular gaming platform, a user created an array of Interior Ministry forces in June to celebrate the national holiday, Russia Day.
Defeating the Nazis is good, actually. And commemorating that is also good, actually.
Yes, we live in the Information Age. We've been living in it for decades now, NYT. Nationalist zealots are going to post. They're going to make reactionary content. It's nothing new.
Aw man that sucks
When you start talking about height and hand size, I think you're getting lost in the sauce. Basketball already favors abnormally tall people anyway, but no one is trying to ban Yao Ming from the sport for being 229 cm (7'6").
The issue of transgender athletes was basically resolved several years ago when the IOC decided on two years of feminizing hormones before transgender women could compete in the female category. But due to the re-emergence of the anti-queer culture war, sports federations are re-litigating the issue and throwing science out the door.
Since men have been getting support and funding for over a century in sports and games like this, you end up with them dominating the field. Women's categories bring in more female players that otherwise wouldn't have a chance if the entire game was open only. But on the other hand, this enables concern-trolling over "transgender invasion". It's also applied questionably to sports that maybe don't need this such as in the case of Zhang Shan & Olympic skeet shooting. It can reinforce gender stereotypes. Finally, I'd say it's frustratingly slow at leveling the playing field.

I am a more qualified journalist than Saskia O'Donoghue it seems.
Biden still owes us $600 from his campaign promise lol
Not really news. Of course soldiers are going to say nationalistic things.
Sadly I can't find a single news article that discusses likely jury bias. In fact, most articles are just carbon copies of each other
This single user's plan does even involve using Hexbear. Lemmy.world would have to defederate from all other instances to prevent this person from trolling.
