There’s conspiracy theories—based on Trump’s expression after walking out of his first private meeting with Putin—that Russia has blackmail

“he” being Zelenskyy, not Putin

The ridiculous justification, “absolutely CRAZY!”, Trump suggested “something has happened” to Putin to make him kill a lot of people, etc.

the mere existence of the incident, “suspect” animal abuse, lack of CCTV, “The spokesman added that there was no evidence suggesting previous attempts of anyone in the area using glue to trap or mistreat birds.”

I know, my point is there’s still a level of cruelty that everyone tolerates. Yet reduction is always better. Punishing such pigeon-gluers is reduction. Being vegetarian is reduction. Being vegan is reduction. That does not mean being any of these is being hypocritical.

Everyone has their limit to the ratio between tolerance and group convenience. Even vegans must also tolerate plant cruelty, for one. It’s not an “on-or-off” switch.

would be the same with facebook

definitely malware browser plugins

It’s only one, and browser extensions are trivially easy to “decompile” since they’re not distributed compiled in the first place. The extensions are just zips or rars of the source code and metadata.

been listening to oppenheimer recently

I need a list of good music to help me cope with depression. Thanks

try snail’s house for instrumental stuff and porter robinson’s nurture if you’re fine with vocals! get well.

Our biggest threat right now is a bunch of worms, who are somehow all-powerful and as strong as a butcher’s drill and against which the Department of Defense has to mobilize. Not China, not Russia, not Mexico, not Canada, worms.

The headline not, but the article definitely.

sus

At least it has the vibration.

wait i’m privacy-averse but i know nearly all of this?? 😵‍💫😬

It is or at least should be a library’s right to buy and lend books.

And The Great Gatsby was brought to you by a library—your school’s.

That’s nice. But why? Do you not miss out on e.g. The Great Gatsby?

How many books have you paid for, and how many does a library have?

It’s called property. You buy a book. You don’t get to copy it, but you get to show it to anyone you want.

You claimed it was piracy. Piracy is not when you go to a library and listen to something the label doesn’t sell anymore. Piracy is downloading the latest Imagine Dragons slop without paying.

job market is packed enough
