Why is he being tried in federal and state court simultaneously over the same alleged crime? Isn’t that double jeopardy?

Honest title: California presidential hopeful and guy channeling used car salesman energy, Gavin Newsom, regrets disqualifying himself from that sweet, sweet AIPAC funding.

Hitler says Sudetenland belongs to Germany. Wait, no, that’s not right. And yet it feels strangely relevant.

OnlyFans has tried to position itself as one of Britain’s greatest tech success stories, preferring to be seen as a social media platform than as an adult business.

Hahahahahahhahahahahhaha

Netanyahu is definitely one of my least favourite US presidents, along with Putin.

Úgy értem… ez elég pontos összefoglalása annak a zavaros baromságnak, amit a Fidesz eddig mondott.

what do you call the handling of COVID and the “don’t mask up it’s just the flu bro” policy, if not killing his own supporters?

you mean giving away billions of dollars of computer with no monetisation strategy was bad? man who would have thought. not sam, apparently. if only there were like, some way to have realised that the goal of business is to earn money

You have to really not want to go back, because they could charge you with tax evasion. And at the point you’re avoiding it anyway then there’s no reason to keep the citizenship. On the other hand, if you have assets in the states (401ks and retirement accounts like many of us), they can garnish or seize it for nonpayment of taxes. So sadly the decision is not so simple.

Amen.

I’ll just leave this here as an example of why having one country split in two is a bad idea https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/East_Pakistan

Uh… the West Bank doesn’t border Egypt. You’d be cresting an Egyptian enclave separated from the rest of Egypt by Israeli territory. And anyway, that land originally belonged to Jordan.

Call it… optimism? I don’t think we’re that easy to eradicate completely, though that future looks pretty bleak to me - for the small population that continues to exist in it…

We’re continuing to accelerate climate change for this?

Our descendants a thousand years into the future are going to look back on this time period with absolute disgust, knowing we sleepwalked into destroying the environment potentially for the remainder of our species’ existence - and we did it for the dumbest possible reasons.

I agree. They’re getting attacked on three fronts - Linux for the gaming user base and now macOS for the student, education and casual user base; and all the while, the professionals and creatives get tempted by Apple hardware increasingly running faster, cooler and more energy efficient than anything in the Intel/AMD world. It’s Microsoft’s game to lose and boy they sure seem to want to lose it.

I would never have believed it a few years back, but a world where Linux and Mac collectively have a higher market share than Windows could actually be possible. It’s the perfect storm of M-series chips kicking ass, Valve investing so much in Linux, and Microsoft giving the finger to their customers.

er… what is it?

“Anti-voting activists”? You mean Nazis?

Truly setting a new record for being on the wrong side of history 100% of the time.
