It’s DEI hiring to hire people who were hired to speak their own fairly unstudied Native American language?
It’s clear (and this is yet another case) that this whole DEI non issue is a fabricated propaganda dog whistle to certain people.
This will go down in American history for all the dreadful reasons it deserves. Absolutely dark and disgusting times America has entered.
Sounds like you are trying to explain away over a million deaths as if it was happening everywhere in Europe and not primarily the British fault.
Fact: in 1847, nearly 4,000 vessels carried food from Ireland to British ports while hundreds of thousands of Irish people died of starvation and related diseases. There was PLENTY of food in Ireland.
FACT: The government refused to intervene in the market to prevent food exports, even as the Irish population faced severe food shortages. Why?
While crop failures were happening across Europe, the impact in Ireland was particularly devastating because of the population's heavy reliance on potatoes. The suggestion that food was only unaffordable for the poor overlooks the fact that the potato blight left many people without any access to their primary food source. WHY was it the only source of food in an abundant growing environment??
Fact: Wages paid on “work programs” for those (un)lucky enough to get on them were too low to purchase food at inflated "famine" prices, leading to widespread starvation.
The export of food from Ireland during this period was a significant factor in the suffering of the Irish people, and it is important to acknowledge the role of British economic policies and the prioritization of profits over humanitarian needs which seems to be a struggle for you.
Famine? Only one crop failed. Ireland was a net exporter of food to the UK..
There’s another word for this, not a famine…
Excellent news. And all social media should be blocked until you are 16+
Bless these Ukrainians. Russia bit off way more than it can chew with them.
Pop_OS is also another good variant (It does not use Firefox snaps)
Debian, Linux mint, MX Linux, you name it, all way better these days than Ubuntu.
This is how Europe works. And it works well, and the reason the US pays WAAAY more for items like this. The US also allows price gouging of course..
No sympathy for those who want to gouge ill people. About time, I hope the rest of America gets to buy cheaper insulin. Saying otherwise is a disgrace
This Radical activist supreme court is out of its mind.
The Irish term “hard man” is more of a meaning about a persons spirit/ attitude to certain things. It does mean someone you don’t want to mess with or in fact have any sort of dealings with. (unless you can equivalently “nullify” their attitude and there’s only one thing usually that can nullify a “hard man”… and this the cycle begins.
Has TikTok’s parent invaded anyones sovereign country and is currently murdering innocent civilians in that sovereign country??
Private equity gobbling up everything for sale or rent has the patience and money to sit us all out.
This is awesome engineering. Efficiency should be more highly prized!
The pandemic has brought forward the inevitable realization tbat Silicon Valley is not about changing the world for the better.
Is it bad to feel depressed that this has been going for nearly half a century with No end In Sight.
In fact it’s stated goal is the dream end state of any pharma co that could cure it. Endless treatment to stave off death.
I guess no does not mean no huh. But Nice try to explain away when people have already chosen to opt out!
Not sure of Spotify’s angle here. Artists don’t get enough money from Spotify to be loyal… could Lead to a mass exodus. I hope it does. Rogan gets to metaphorically drive drunk around town free from consequences it seems.
This is an article from the spectator? The hard right magazine that has patted certain people on the back that might be thought a little beyond the pale in most places?
Stop spreading doubt about it being nefarious. AI is trained. And if this is the future it’s still censorship regardless of if there’s an algorithm to blame or a human.
The stasi were impressive also. They would have loved this.
This is the current sad state of America.
American Capitalism currently has the ability to pay for legislation to make it illegal to breathe air for free (Damn leftists and free breathing), then is ready to have the companies that paid for the legislation to charge you PAYG for breathing.
End stage capitalism is a thing.
Australia’s proximity to China is maybe affecting its western ideals. This is one of many things it’s done and doing recently to make it a less free country and this can only be a slippery slope which they are already sliding on.
This is what your MS browser has become? Basically a tracking device for “dealz”, Which you can then pay for. It’s basically become the dollar general of browsers. There were insecure browser plugins that did this 10-15 years ago. This is Laughable and sad.
I wonder is there any difference between those who are doubly vaccinated and those who had covid and are also doubly vaccinated.
..after the Horse has bolted!
they do this in Japan, and in Europe also!
Floury Irish potato varieties are among the best in the world. Once you taste them you can’t go back to waxy potatoes.
Maybe the 5 eyes should become 6, and allow China in now since they are aligning with chinese internet policy.
Although not an onlyfans fan, these new Puritan times are dangerous for everything the West supposedly stands for.
The bankers who allegedly have laundered drug money and goodness knows who elses dirty money, now seem to have an issue with those who use the platform safely and responsibly (and all the rest of the OF users) on that platform.
I think everyone is missing the point here. The point of municipal broadband is not to Run efficiently, but to keep the ATTs of the world HONEST! -- IF ATT and the rest did, there would be zero need for it. Europe shows that somebody needs to keep the "Capitalists" honest. If this is how its done. so be it. the ATTs of this industry, spend more time lobbying for laws to make enable them to charge people more for less. Its laughable, and bad for the US.
Sad! It takes years of rock solidness to make a name in Linux for reliability, and basically one stupid decision to destroy a reputation.
CentOS brought people in to the EcoSystem as an alternative to Debian Based distros and that is sadly no more.
