In the next protest mods should allow content like porn as another way of protest.

My grandma passed away from dementia a couple of years back. My mom has symptoms of ADHD. I am diagnosed with ADHD. The only person in the family to get diagnosed and actively treating with meds and stuff.

I wonder if knowledge and meds can stave of dementia.

You need to start somewhere. Regulation will always lag behind technology. But sooner or later things will get regulated. Once a good number of people are affected by something, rules will be brought in by the people. That's how democracy works.

These rules are never perfect. Sometimes, to make rules effective, they have to be multilayered (swiss cheese model). But that makes them too expensive to implement. So eventually things end in a compromise where cost and effectiveness balance.

Live in domestic help is extremely common all across India. They probably think they did nothing wrong as it wouldn't have raised any eyebrows in India.

That would have been a mature thing to do.

All fine and dandy. Kudos to Apple for the innovation! But then they decided to keep it strictly inside Apple.

That's not how communication works. Imagine if Bell kept the telephone to themselves... Oh wait... They tried... Got sued for it... Company broke up and the whole world got interoperable telephone system that is alive to this day.

Innovation is great, capitalizing on innovation is also great. But eventually it needs to reach everyone and the answer cannot be "then everyone should buy Apple".

Imagine if DARPA kept the Internet as "Americans only"

It's a hosting ban on US servers and app stores. People already downloaded the app will continue to be able to use it.

That is if Bytedance doesn't sell.

Completely on point. I am an engineer. If I were to self inflict gunshots, I would 100% design a contraption that would shooot multiple times. Need to make sure.

Also need to hide this contraption while I am in the dying process. To make sure people know it was self inflicted.

Just two? Rookie numbers.

A terrible coincidence, indeed.

That's why we need to hit peak oil fast. It will be a definitive fuck you to oil.

Israel cannot let Palestinians live as human beings because they out-number the Israelis. Giving then rights would give the Palestinians a majority in voting etc. So the Israeli's opted to treat the Palestinians like sub humans. Treating an entire country as subhumans... For decades... has consequences.
