Russia invaded Ukraine. If Russia wants peace, then all they have to do is, you know, stop invading? That’s not really a bias statement. That’s just basic facts that have nothing to do with empire approved narratives.

This is something that happens in beach cities in CA. People get drunk at the beach bars and then take the beach bike path home. However, those paths are used by pedestrians and other cyclists going at high speeds.

It’s not bootlicking, you weirdo. It’s recognizing when one thing is right and one thing is wrong. Just because a company does something doesn’t make it automatically wrong.

I know it might be a crazy concept that is hard to grasp, but the world isn’t totally black and white. It’s almost like bad people can do good things sometimes. And good people can do bad things sometimes. Your way of thinking is exactly the way Republicans justify all the evil shit they do. They are religious, which makes them good people, and therefore everything they do is good. In your case, you think a corporation is bad and therefore everything they do is bad.

Theft is when something you own is taken away. The squatter never owned the domain, only registered to use it. In this case, ICANN owns the domain and allows a registrar to handle who can use that domain. ICANN sets strict rules on how domains can be used, and the squatter broke those rules.

Maybe the judge is a little smarter on actual laws than you are.

This isn’t about an intangible thing being property. This is about the way domains are controlled. Nobody owns a domain, they register the right to use a domain. All domains are controlled and “owned” by ICANN, which allows registrars to handle who can use domains.

They are not anyone’s property.

The point isn’t that intangible objects can’t be property. The point is that domains are not legally owned by people or corporations. You can pay for the right to use one, but you don’t own it.

What sucks is that a lot of commercial companies in L.A. use the .la domain, which is blocked by my company’s proxy.

Does France not already have a giant database of citizens and various visa holders with their information and all that? Do they not give out cards to use at the doctor’s office?

What extra burden would “not giving out that card to retirement visa holders” add?

So the most informed people should not be able to make public statements because people who make policies might listen to them? That’s an insane take.

Where did I use the word “trust?” Nowhere. I said they have a well-informed opinion on the topic at hand.

Show me where he is setting military policy. I’ll wait.

Oh, hang on, he isn’t. He is making a public statement about what he thinks politicians should do based on what he observes in his daily work on the job. It’s literally the Chairman’s job to make public statements about what is best for the industry they work in and what is best for their company.

The Chairman or CEO or whatever of a major defense corporation has a vested stake in what things might affect the defense industry and very likely has a team of people informing him of what is going on geopolitically. This person is someone who probably knows more than you on things like this, so maybe listening to him is worthwhile. We don’t have to follow what he says, but hearing what he says is probably a good idea.

Who said anything about stock price? I sure didn’t.

Who cares what the CEO of a major Defense contractor thinks about the defense of the continent that company is located in? I’d say a lot of people.

Dmitry Peskov said: “Why is he involved in nuclear weapons?”

“Russian Presidential Press Secretary Dmitry Peskov expressed surprise that a representative of the civil aviation industry would make such statements.”

I have to think that Peskov knows Airbus is not just a civil aviation company… He does know that Airbus is a major defense contractor, right? The European Aeronautic Defence and Space Company (EADS) just rebranded itself as Airbus 10 years ago. The literally make missiles. Why wouldn’t the CEO of a company that makes weapons talk about making weapons?

How many cars driven by humans run over cats each day? Do these outraged people think robotaxis are somehow worse than human drivers? If the humans in the car didn’t see the cat, then it doesn’t matter if it was a robot or a human driving at the time.

Getting rid of the heat is going to be an issue for that… along with the massive pollution from the many launches required to get this in orbit.

It still is 100% centralized.

All “teams” or clubs are just franchise licenses. All players are actually employees of the league, not of the clubs themselves. The league can also dictate which clubs are allowed to sign which players. It’s kind of wild.

The biggest thing I will miss when I finally move to Europe is how rarely I encounter smokers in public in the US. I can only hope Europe keeps making smoking less enticing, because it’s really jarring walking around a beautiful city and having to smell smoke everywhere outside.

Windy roads make people slow down for all the turns. Narrow roads make people slow down because most don’t have a great sense of how big their car is. Bumpy roads make people slow down and wakes people up. Even how lanes are painted changes how people drive.
