Reason.com is a libertarian propaganda mill. This story is meant to pit you against the state so you can swallow their other bullshit.

Rumors are indicating that they want to offer some subscriptions to users(domain registration and hosting of various bluesky components).

The company is currently TINY, under 50 employees. So as long as the infra costs stay low, it won’t take much. If enough users get vanity domains, and they get some govt/enterprise accounts for hosting bsky.cnn.com and such.

So the idea is that they want to get to some ethical monetization strategy before releasing the software to aggregate content is released, and federation is enabled.

Did you vote for Harris or Stein?

Is the 5 watts on an M series Mac?

Why is the moon more relevant than mars?

How is SpaceX destructive compared to other rocket companies? Also, do you know who built the Saturn V?

You are totally ignoring their arguments. Not every place can do wind or solar or hydro. Like it’s simply not an option.

Wish it weren’t, but it kinda is. The alternative is Boeing and they just can’t deliver. Today’s launch to Europa was supposed to be on SLS.

As a huge space buff I’m grateful for spacex, but wish Elon would die of an aneurysm in his sleep. Like tonight.

This would be a non controversy if they just ignored twitter.

Twitter is just the new Parler.

Calling this holocaust-denying Mohammed-cartoonist-hating fuckwit a moderating force is hilarious.

Yeah, people keep throwing the Lebanon attacks in the “Gaza Genocide” pile without thinking of implications of the differences in tactics and precision.

Israel could have made a measured, targeted response to the Hamas attack. They looked at their spies, assassins, intelligence, stealth drones, and booby trapped pagers, and put them aside in favor of tens of thousands of bombs.

They chose genocide.

Unfortunately LG makes the best panels, and many other brands use LG panels(not as good as what LG puts in their own units).

The solution here is to buy their ad subsidized tv and never connect it to the internet.

The Apple mouse comes with some weird pads. They’re meant to work OK with a certain amount of friction on a wide variety of surfaces. However as you’ve found they suck on a mouse pad.

Replace the Apple pads with some made from teflon and you’ll be good.

There is a difference between the actions in Gaza and the actions in Lebanon.

No it’s utterly pragmatic.

The future of space exploration is in space.

Yes, and when we bombed Germany in WW2 we killed hundreds of children. War is bad. Terrorism is bad. But they are different things.

I mean you are fundamentally making an argument against war. Which I agree with. When waging war someone innocent is always going to get caught in the crossfire, which is one of the many reasons war is bad.

But to call all acts of war terrorism, and all terrorism an act of war, is to pretend words don’t have meanings.

If the beepers and radios were targeted at Hezbollah militia members, then it isn’t terrorism.

If the equipment was sold in regular retail channels meant for the general Lebanese population, then it is terrorism.

We don’t know enough to make that call 100%, but early analysis is strongly suggesting it was targeted.

To call it terrorism at this point is flippant and unsupported, and draws attention away from and fails to highlight their larger crime of genocide.

This flippant accusation misses the grander issue.

If Israel is capable of precisely targeting enemy military like this, then why are there 35k dead in Gaza?

Elon is a nazi but this was always bound to happen as we expand our presence in space.

Imagine the radio signature of any of the hundreds of orbital megastructures in sci fi.

You bring up thought crime but forget that the entire point of newspeak is to reduce the ability to think at all.

Most people can’t own their consumption patterns while under the constant barrage of mental reprogramming that is advertising.
