Trump has as much charisma as a chewed bubble gum. I don’t understand why that many people voted him. Twice.
But don’t blast me with hot air!
I’m sorry! As a large-language model, I have no capabilities to blast hot air at you. Would you like to talk about something else?
It’s common that VIP and celebrity conscriptions, where military service is voluntary, are mostly a propaganda stunt.
While the propaganda entices young people to go to the battle front because someone has to go, It’s also very common for celebrities to be sheltered from any real harm, since that could be detrimental to conscription.
OTOH, it’s understandable given the endless apettite tech has for profiling people. The Fediverse is not Big Tech, but Big Tech wants all the data anyway, and given its open nature, it will get it eventually. Temporary accounts are a way to make it a bit harder for Big Tech, at the cost of making it worse for legitimate users.
If the Fediverse had some protection against data greed, maybe less people would be wary of leaving a long data trail. The best it can do so far is using nicknames and multiple accounts.
Spanish is redundant. One house is “la casa”, several are “las casas”. It pluralizes both articles and nouns.
Also, like English, nouns are pluralized with several suffixes, but the rules are very clear. Any Spanish speaker can pluralize correctly nouns they’ve never seen before, none of that octopi/octopuses, virii/viruses weirdness.
English is schizo, but “the” is actually a very nice simplification, and It hardly impacts the communication.
This is just wanting a pretext to be depressed.
Reminder that Meta doesn’t want you yo read the book “Careless People” by Sarah Wynn-Williams. Go and find it in a shadow library if you can’t afford it, it’s revealing.
I don’t get why producers see prequels as a safe haven, they nearly always end up trashing decades-old canon, instead of adding to it.
Enterprise was one of the exceptions, it fit nicely with established canon, and added to it gracefully.
This was clear since such a big and supposedly effective intelligence apparatus failed to stop or warn about the Hamas attack that gave Israel pretext to go full ethnic cleaning and warmongering.
They knew, they allowed it, and paid a modest price in Israeli casualties to kickstart their plan. Also, Ukraine was attracting all the war funding, they couldn’t risk USA reducing their military allowance.
I hate that USA is enabling them, and at the same time being hipocritical about wanting a peaceful solution. Cut their funding if you want to stop them. Freeze their assets like NATO did with Russia. Act, don’t talk.
