So far the most benefiting entities politically are: Russia and China (US attention might be divided and be forced to divert funds to Israel), Netanyahu (Isreelis were very divided in his support, this raises up nationalism and helps him to do more).
That’s how it supposed to be done.
I’m jealous.
I love when FCC at least appears to do something, not like under Shit Pai.
Frankly though they should revise Title II classification for the Internet and remove exception from the requirement to share last mile to competitors. This is the main reason there’s almost no competition. It doesn’t make sense for every single ISP to run lines to every home. Those lines should be leaseable.
They could always remove those complex fees and make the bill simpler…
Maybe some kind of write-off that only creative accountants know about?
LOL, this reminds me of my coworkers. Guy in his 50s, kids already grown up, very quiet, barely know anything about him. One time we had an event and wanted to carpool. We get all in, he turns the ignition and RAAAAAAAAHHHHH! Kind of surprised me and I learned to not assume too much.
The irony is that the monthly insurance premiums that are paid are higher than the taxes would be.
Honestly I’m not as principled as some people but I noticed that I drastically reduced my presence there and it’s going down. I think a lot might have to do that RiF is missing (unrelated, but RIF’s author made a client for tildes.net called weirdly Three Cheers) and I refuse to install their spammy app.
Fascist? I was convinced it was communist, but honestly I never checked.
Why do we have fascists, communists (lemmygrad and lemmy.ml, actually many of them aren’t even pro communism as they are pro Russia).
Why can’t we have normal communities here?
It is notoriously hard to replicate things in labs, especially with material science.
This was attempt to do it within 2 days of the paper being published.
To add to that, the original researchers apparently had 10% successes rate in their lab, they wanted to perfect it before publishing their paper.
Bad luck was that it leaked, so to make sure somebody else doesn’t get credit for their work they published what they had within hours.
It likely will take months before this will be verified.
I love those. Another good one is listing:
And saying something, like this time it will be different.
They are purposefully hiding one tiny bit of detail thought, that Ukrainian war was started be is being committed by Russia.
EU approved few insects for consumption as a novelty food and will need to pass defined standards and inspections.
But conservatives, even in US used that as an argument that they will make us feed bugs.
Did you read the article? It essentially says “tell your little brat (that you created and use to destabilize the region) to STFU or we will be forced to supply SK and Japan with weapons for defense, and we are sure you won’t like that”
You are talking as if China is a democracy. Since when what’s popular with Chinese people matters?
I mean we don’t even have to go far. We can just look at covid pandemic where covid lockdowns were literal lockdowns.
It is the other way around. They can cause a damage especially to SK and Japan, but the nuclear weapons won’t help them once they do as they just have limited number of them.
This news is, because they like to fly their rockets over other countries.
It was called by putin the safest structure on the planet that is protected by 20 different systems.
This bridge not only is important for the military, but also for putin’s ego.
Why Ukraine didn’t attack it earlier? According to Russia they shouldn’t be able to attack it now.
Anyway if the bridge falls, Russia would be able to supply soldiers only via eastern routes, which all are now under artillery range.
And that’s exactly how it will be used
Russia doesn’t need Ukraine on its own, they need Ukraine to get access Poland, Romania and Moldova.
They already switched into war time production, and if they manage to get Ukraine they only need a year or two to replenish all military equipment.
People really underestimate Russia and that’s the worst thing you can do to get caught pants down. If Russia senses there’s a chance to succeed they will move on.
Another thing the West seems to be ignoring is that they think the war is just what is happening in Ukraine, when the majority of their operation is disinformation, subversion, and destabilization.
The popularity of far right politicians (who for some reason are friendly toward Kremlin) or BRExit shows how effective it is.
