This is truly ridiculously offensive. For him to do that, in Parliament, as a parliamentarian, is beyond absurd. I hope he’s not getting away with this stunt without some form of reprimand or punishment.
Failure to do so makes Poland look really bad on an international stage and will probably inspire this nutcase to burn the building down when he decides to burn a Quran next or some other stupid shit.
Apple flexing their anti-competitive muscles again.
From locking down the OS to proprietary charging and a staunch opposition to right to repair, their track record has been nothing but anti-consumer for the last decade and a half.
And the worst part is that they’ve gotten away with it for so long and so often that they managed to inspire Android device manufacturers (ahem…Samsung) to follow in their footsteps. Someone really ought to step in and break up the company, Microsoft anti-trust style.
UAE is cheating since they outsourced it to the Netherlands to do their sea reclaiming for them.
One has to wonder if we wouldn’t be better off without social media. Sure, it’s done a lot of good in helping people connect and exchange ideas, but some of those people aren’t acting in good faith, and some of those ideas are just plain terrible. I don’t claim to have the full solution, but it would be a great first step if the equivalent of a fairness doctrine were to be introduced to the algorithms these platforms use to weed out rampant misinformation.
People actively voted for deportation? Oh boy. There are some scary historic precedents there that I hope the Netherlands will avoid.
That’s somehow worse and also surprising. I thought your previous governments were made of the worker’s party and the Christian centrists. A quick trip to Wikipedia thought me I should stay up to date on politics if I’m going to comment on it.
So that makes me wonder: Why go further right if people feel the ruling right party let them down?
And there goes another country to the Alt-right. It’s really disheartening to see a message like this continue to win elections globally.
I get that people are worried their left and centre left governments have failed them, but why the pull to the opposite extreme?
That’s like saying you want to put ExxonMobil in charge of combating climate change because Greenpeace hasn’t solved it yet.
Yeah, I’ll look into that. It’s just a shame to have to do extra work and spend extra money because a company decides to screw you over after your purchase.
Well, look who’s looking like an idiot for setting up my entire house with Hue lights recently after running two bulbs with local control for years… sigh it’s getting mighty frustrating having to deal with companies hoarding your data.
Good to see justice prevailed and the sentences are high. Terrorism should never pay.
That was the most infuriating thing about this whole post to me. Elon’s braindead take is on brand and expected at this point, but that chart (or worse, the reaserch behind it) is the true crime here.
Companies are held to certain expedience standards when it comes to removal. If you request it and the company doesn’t delete within the described maximum time, they will get fined under GDPR.
I know, this was inresponse to the other post about which parts of the GDPR to implement. If I had to pick any one feature to carry over from the GDPR into whatever legislation we get on this side of the ocean, I’d pick the right to deletion.
I’d much rather they implement the right to deletion. I know they will get their hands on a ton of data, regardless of how we write the clause. But at least let me delete that data when I want it gone.
There’s plenty stuff to criticise her for without having to bring up that completely unfounded sex trafficking story.
How about the fact that she helped popularize and legitimise Gwyneth Paltrow’s Goop grift? Or that she gave doctor Phil a head start to his media persona and subsequent popularity? And then did it again with Dr Oz? And what about her help in legitimising Jenny McCarthy’s “vaccines cause autism” claims by lending her a global stage and audience for her wackjob pseudoscience? Or the time she legitimised cultist weirdo John of God? Or helped Tom Cruise deflect some serious allegations related to Scientology by allowing him to go bananas on her couch?
Like I said, there’s enough stuff she legitimately did to criticise her for without some fake news conspiracy bs.
Seconded, I’d want to see that too.
What a surprise. Said no-one.
Seriously through, this is the result of Putin’s lack of backbone in declaring this an actual war, which would both allow him to recruit conscripts and reservists, and cause quite a bit of international and domestic push back. The only (currently preferred) alternative appears to be to just roll the dice on giving convicted killers weapons and hoping for the best.
This entire operation has made a joke of the Russian military.
I will gladly, cheerfully, trade any 39c day for a -39c day. Cold is easily manageable with more / better clothes. Even when dressed for the heat, it still saps your energy like crazy and makes you feel like shit in the process.
With a cellular data subscription that we will then be required to pay a monthly fee for, to make sure the TV continues to work. You didn’t think they’d be giving this away for free, right?
That’s good to hear, as the article doesn’t mention any reprimands. Thanks for helping restore some of my faith in the world.
