okay boss -> no need to argue, no need to talk about the task, just leave me alone.
you need to talk to the boss -> i am not taking responsibility for any decisions that if they go wrong will be blamed on me and if they go well i won’t get credit for.

BDS is a global movement calling for boycotts, divestment and ultimately sanctions of Israel and companies complicit in Israels illegal occupation and other crimes against the Palestinian people.
Microsoft provides AI tools to the Israeli army -IDF- which are used to automatically designate people as targets for bombing. Among other things a particular heinous AI is infamously named “Where’s Daddy”, where bombings are timed so that the target is killed upon arriving home, so their entire family is also murdered.

- Comment on DNC can't communicate 1 week ago:
And Joe Biden voted for the “defense of marriage” bill in 1996 to prevent states from recognizing same sex marriage. The bill was signed into law by Bill Clinton. Husband of later candidate and loser to Trump Hillary Clinton.
Almost as if the DNC is opposed to progressive politics until too much of their base has been affected by what their kids learned in college. Unless it is about genocide. The DNC would never stop supporting genocide and rather beat up their own kids on college campus.

We could increase the training requirements and oversight. We could design road-networks in a way that makes speeding more difficult and enact stricter speed limits.
Whenever these measures are taking in an area they greatly reduce the number of people killed or seriously injured.
- Comment on Anon isn't fooled by planes 1 week ago:
Since we are pedantic, what you say isn’t true.
The tanker weights exactly as much as the weight of the water that it displaces. They are in balance. You describe it yourself. The tanker sinks deeper if it becomes heavier and swims more up as it becomes lighter.
The measure of “boat swims” is not the weight of the displaced water. It is weather there is some boat wall left sticking out of the water to keep more water from entering and displacing the air that keeps the submerged volume in weight balance with the water.
- Comment on Low quality cropping will officially launch on Lemmy in 2025 1 week ago:
There is no legitimate reason why trains or cars should be more dangerous modes of transport than flights. It is just that the lobbies for cars and capitalist train operations successfully desensitized everyone to it, so “deadly car crash” is just shrugged away. In the US we see similar attempts to make planes less safe and just accept the numbers of people killed in preventable events.
- Comment on Former PlayStation exec says "$70 or $80" games are a "steal": "As long as people choose carefully how they spend their money, I don't think they should be complaining" 2 weeks ago:
Well, if i have the entire game on the physical device and it doesn’t come with arbitrary DRM stuff, i can still enjoy it in 20 years on the old console even if all the servers are shut down.
I recently saw that used Gameboy Advance SPs go for the same price like when they were new. Old Gameboy games also go for similar prices like when they were launched. Because no matter where or when. As long as the console and the cartridge themselves are working and there is electricity, the games can be enjoyed.
That is a gigantic difference from a consumer perspective, no matter what the physical production costs are.

If you already have a PC, no matter how old and shoddy, you will be able to run games on it and become a PC gamer. There was no investment hurdle in 2020, while you need a console to become a console gamer, so you need to buy one first. Most people do have a PC for non gaming uses anyways.

You joke with the kebab but a catholic priest got charged two days ago with the claim that he smuggled hash into a prison in Germany inside a kebab.
www1.wdr.de/…/katholischer-seelsorger-drogenschmu…
A Catholic prison chaplain allegedly tried to smuggle drug sachets wrapped in kebabs into Heinsberg Prison in 2022.
From August, the Catholic prison chaplain will have to answer to the Geilenkirchen district court. The case concerns over 140 grams of hashish that was hidden in several kebabs by unknown persons in a fast food restaurant. He wanted to bring them to a group lesson with the prisoners. Not the first smuggling operation
The man had already attracted attention twice before because he had tried to smuggle in cell phones and charging cables, for example. The drugs alone - according to the public prosecutor’s office - had a black market price of 2,000 euros. The former Catholic priest is facing a prison sentence of at least one year.
He was “irrevocably released” by the Aachen diocese after the incident.

maybe maker is the wrong word. I mean these cans, where you fill water in the bottom, have a sieve inlay to put the coffee and then it steams through to the can above. Okay i see now in English it is called “Moka pot” and there is a debate about the “wrong name” in my native language.

If you are using an espresso maker the salt should be irrelevant since the water is turned into steam before precipitating as coffee.

Assuming the green-text is true, or even if it is just as a story to bring across the point, the notion is that “do what you want with me” is implied to be some of the “hardcore” things rather than the possibility of anon just wanting sensual intimacy.

So do you believe genes existed before genetic testing? What would you have said to someone suggesting genes exist before there were tests for them?
It is a quite simple question of whether you accept the possibility of things existing, before there is a scientific consensus on their existence. The scientific approach then is simply to say “i dont know” rather than “i dont know therefore it does not exist”. Because of this fallacy i also consider atheists to be people of faith rather than science. They should just not conflate the two and claim their faith to be science.

It was quite funny when the candidate race started and Trump wasn’t rerunning yet and the FBI raided Mar a Lago for the stolen files. The sentiment was usually something along the lines of
“yeah Trump was not perfect and we always said this and we of course always let the authorities do their job, but also they should raid Biden and if Trump is convicted he is not a good president, but there is candidate x,y that is totally amazing.”
Sometimes i wonder how much of it are just shills, how much it is people who suffer form serious cognitive issues and how much it is people who are aware but fine with lying to themselves constantly.
