(Hint for Americans: the joke makes more sense if you pronounce it with a British accent)

Maybe, but I think sociopaths have a real “ok, well fuck you, too, then. I’ll do/get it myself!” mentality when it comes to God.


And yet you will never hear the 2A crowd chant the implied variant of their favorite mantra, “AI doesn’t kill people; people kill people.” 🙄
The NDAs and TS/SCI labels are going to obfuscate the decision chain to the point that culpability won’t be able to be established at all.

So basically just like… the internet is banned?


TBF, this kind of disaster planning is not uncommon even outside the current context.
Most major metropolitan hospitals have disaster planning/simulation committees that regularly game-out responses to catastrophic incidents, including a nuclear bomb incident.
This also isn’t the first time WHO has done this kind of disaster preparedness (yea, even for nuclear weapon usage).


Actually, I think that’s the main process of enshittification, but I don’t think enshittification is always deliberate.
Very often software products are tweaked, changed, or even degraded in an attempt to “simplify” or “improve” a particular user experience at the expense of another UX.
And to make matters worse, some companies end up with a Frankenstein product of confusing functions because they are trying to cater to two entirely different user bases within the same product.
E.g. Microsoft may genuinely have believed that changing their system settings UI in Windows 11 to “consolidate and reduce drift” of system configurations would improve the everyday user experience, but they failed to account for the decades of inertia they’d built up from their prior OS user base and how that would piss off a not-insignificant number of other users who had grown accustomed to the way the product had previously worked.


Israel could just not allow its settlers to fly crop dusters over the border to spray poison to kill Lebanese crops and none of this would happen.


Listen up, young 'uns—shit’s gotten real bad when the Germans start going broke.
They’ve clawed their way back from all that WW2 debt for awhile now, and were the ones bailing people out left and right during the 2008 financial crisis.
If the Germans start going bust, only God can save us.
“Nur noch ein Gott kann uns retten.”


These aren’t "double-tap’ strikes. These are war crimes.
They aren’t just bombing civilian infrastructure. Obviously they’ll hand-wave the incident away via some vague reference to some sketchy intelligence.
The followup strikes are a war crime because they’re waiting for first responders to arrive and then they kill them, too. That’s stupidly illegal, immoral, and inhumane. It’s akin to shooting a medic tending to a soldier on the battlefield.


Rohollah recalls how his daughter wanted to become a doctor.
“She used to tell me, ‘I promise I will become a doctor so you won’t have to pay medical bills anymore.’ I would hold her and say, ‘You are already my little doctor’,” he said.
“When I saw her smile after coming home from work, all my pain disappeared. Now I don’t know what to do with this pain. I don’t know how to live with this.”
😟


Yeah I noticed that too. Yeesh. Do you think it’s authentic (albeit self-absorbed) commentary, or deliberate well-poisoning?


This is especially fucked up when you factor in just how many excess birth defects/miscarriages occur in Afghanistan as a result of the environmental damage done by the US’s use of depleted uranium munitions all over the country.

you’re thinking of /tmp, which is indeed a slow growing pseudo-void whence nothing escapes.


Oh I’m so mad. Big big mad. You’re so right, king. 😗🧠🐦

You’re not beating the illiteracy accusation.
I s’pose you’re right. Walks like a chauvinistic Russian Nazi, talks like a chauvinistic Russian Nazi and all. 😗
And “a boot” is “about” in Canadian. 😜
