The celebrations when Thatcher died we’re very appropriate

I think the original commenter means that Google got off with a tap on the wrist

If I were near the equator: is this a joke I’m too 0° lat to understand?

I absolutely hated it when I first watched, but it grew on me so much that by the end of the series it was by far my most favourite intro. None of the others come anywhere close.

The most recent ones are an absolute snooze fest only good for skipping

It’s not the multiple partners that are a problem in my opinion (You do you. Polyamory is not for me, but no hate), it’s the many-to-one relationships. Even in cases where an immoral power dynamic doesn’t exist, you’re still setting up for societal shenanigans if it’s consistently many women to men, or vice versa, which seems prudent to avoid.

That being said, monogamy in a legal sense has probably only persisted so long because involving more than 2 people would be a massive headache for the courts lol

Probably only works in countries where one “partner” has more rights than others.

The percentages of respondents in surveys on infidelity answering “not a moral issue” from France are a bit of a cultural difference (from Australian perspective, anyway)

🇦🇺 heh, amateurs… But seriously this is ridiculous, and straight up anti-democtatic. Single member first past the post is the worst voting system out there.

Inb4 they make mulit-member electorates winner-take-all (all seats to the party who got the plurality of votes).

This is THE fight USA. In my opinion, your ridiculous voting systems is probably why it’s so easy to suppress you.

This option is reserved for the billionaires

If they keep not complying, which is my understanding of what apple has been doing, they should absolutely be bankrupted. Or something drastic.

A warning, which will make other companies self-Police, bringing down the cost of enforcement.

Countries are so permissive of corporate bad behaviour it’s not even funny.

This went way over my head and I was thinking: the writer’s taken their mask off as a racist??

Didn’t make the colour connection

Good thing it ends up in the hands of the Belters (at least in the TV show)

I so very much disagree on this one. Yes they’ve used AI, but this is a hilarious use of AI.

Would he not have already sold most when they went public?

Just an international correction to compensate for the US’ Overton Window:

Tesla was built on left wing progressive ideals*

*wealthy believers of climate change.

“Left-wing” is such a polluted term now lol.

If Tesla was built on left-wing progressive ideals it would be a workers co-op focusing on quality. It’s always been a for-profit company from day one.

Unfortunately I am primarily an android user, as I always have my phone with me.

I shall give it a go for desktop at some point though

Friendship ended with Firefox. Waterfox is my new best friend ❤️

You are underestimating how many people will give up at the slightest inconvenience.

I can tell you, when vigorously enforced, you can get the vast majority of a population to play within your walled garden (China, as an example).

Sweden however, yeah, unless they wanna go full internet firewall, not sure exactly how they plan on enforcing this.

It’s almost like this not-for-profit, for-profit subsidiary thing is a cancer (or at least, my selection bias of late thinks so).

Can someone ELI5 why a foundation can’t develop these products directly, with a for-profit subsidiary? Is there something forbidden about rasing revenue for a not-for-profit via product sales? Would this even fix anything?

the freest nation to ever exist

No one actually believes this, right?
