Experts are warning that the Trump administration's ongoing crackdown in Minnesota could quickly get out of hand and could even result in a second US civil war....
Donald Trump's decision to slap tariffs on countries that have shown support for Greenland is pushing transatlantic relations to a breaking point as EU leaders contemplate ways of retaliating against Washington that until now have been unthinkable....
Going to go a step further to point out that freedom of speech only applies to people, not organizations. Put on your reading comprehension glasses and see how lazy of a thinker you are.
Donald Trump's desire to annex Greenland will not be thwarted and there could be meaningful U.S. action related to the Arctic island within "weeks or months," according to a senior administration official....
Trump also told the Times that he isn’t opposed to using nuclear force if he “needed it” to take over the Arctic island but that “it might upset NATO," since the island is a self-governing territory of NATO member country Denmark.
We are talking about quality of writing fiction. There's nothing wrong with being an amateur, but being rude when a professional has a higher skill cap than you is just kind of sad. This man has likely honed his craft over 10s of thousands of hours, respect that. You've basically told me that when you see someone just beginning to practice a skill you have honed you can't tell a difference, or you lack the ability to transfer that concept to a skill you are unpracticed in. If you feel that this is still hard to understand, try reading the Eragon series then LotR. Both fun reads, but you can tell that one was written by someone early in their writing carrier vs later.
The Trump administration will withdraw from dozens of international organizations, including the UN’s population agency and the UN treaty that establishes international climate negotiations, as the US further retreats from global cooperation....
One of them is confirmed flu, the other is flu-like. Likely it's that RFK has fucked the health admin/funding process enough that the corps don't want to release data that might get them punished and are side stepping it with what amounts to phrasing. At the same time, post covid, these corps are realising that suppressing the data or ignoring it till it got big brought in better money than being preventative.
Some projects keep surprising me with their “solutions,” and this is one of those cases. A proposal under review by developers from GNOME and Mozilla could change how middle-mouse-button paste behaves on Linux and other Unix-like systems....
Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi said Beijing cannot accept any country acting as the "world's judge" after the United States captured Venezuela's President Nicolas Maduro....
The lack of a clear legal justification and the precedent set by the operation have left others wondering how vulnerable they might be to U.S. intervention....
And you're a coward for not working on creating solidarity amongst them yourself. Way to attack those also oppressed by america. Try building a movement in your own country that doesn't just let it lick the US's feet before you go demanding that others do it in a country that has infinitely more guns pointed against them.
Because that's your only hope to stop your land from being invaded by the American government? Literally a majority of Americans oppose most of Americas actions when given context? You call others cowards but you have no real solutions yourself, your mindset is only a few degrees off from a Nazi think if you paint with such a large brush.
@everyone GrapheneOS is being heavily targeted by the French state because we provide highly secure devices and won't include backdoors for law enforcement access. They're conflating us with companies selling closed source products using portions of our code. Both French state media and corporate media are publishing many stories attacking the GrapheneOS project based on false and unsubstantiated claims from French law enforcement. They've made a clear threat to seize our servers and arrest our developers if we do not cooperate by adding backdoors. Due to this, we're leaving France and leaving French service providers including OVH. We need substantial help from the community to push back against this across platforms. People malicious towards us are also using it as an opportunity to spread libel/harassment content targeting our team, raid our chat rooms and much more. /e/ and iodéOS are both based in France, and are both actively attacking GrapheneOS. /e/ receives substantial government funding. Both are extremely non-private and secure which is why France is targeting us while those get government funding. We need a lot more help than usual and we're sending our the first ever notification to everyone on the server because this is a particularly bad situation. If people help us, it will enable us to focus more on development again including releasing experimental Pixel 10 releases very soon.
No I am trying to tell you you're getting sucked into propaganda. There's a reason why even the title claims "high risk:" The forced labor of capitalism is known, the claimed forced labor in China that's been claimed for years now somehow still has no definitive proof and is still "high risk."
"The Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act made it U.S. policy to assume that all goods manufactured in Xinjiang are made with forced labor, unless the commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection certifies that certain goods are known to not have been made with forced labor." from the wikipedia page
Look up proving a negative, youll learn it's hard to do, and when opposing evidence is given by China, would you accept it?
I don't think this is a cheering match or anything. I know that China does do bad things, they certainly arent a perfect country. I oppose all forced labor that has been proven.
I am asking you (or anyone) for proof of a positive, that this happened. You again don't offer evidence. As soon as you offer definitive proof I will believe you, but until then to me you're just enabling the powers that have oppresed your family, mine, and billions of others.
Ask yourself why we assume all products there are under forced labor instead of defining forced labor and banning it. If this truly was the issue, why do we only care about it in China?
Is my sick burn is "I want evidence" or "I dont believe in unsourced claims." Maybe your claims are true, can you share them? Is there an interview I can see with those people, the ones you say you have talked to?
