I don't think this is something that can changed with laws. It has to be a cultural thing or else there wouldn't be that same weight / understanding behind why they need to do it and actually trying to socialize.

Also socialization isn't as easily quantifiable as money is and once you start doing that then it loses something in the process.

It says that it continued into the Biden era as well.

The military program started under former President Donald Trump and continued months into Joe Biden’s presidency, Reuters found – even after alarmed social media executives warned the new administration that the Pentagon had been trafficking in COVID misinformation. The Biden White House issued an edict in spring 2021 banning the anti-vax effort, which also disparaged vaccines produced by other rivals, and the Pentagon initiated an internal review, Reuters found.

I mostly mention that to fend off the people that use the main basis of their argument as the effectiveness because that's not why I'm doing it.

I do think it could work legally if the courts want to remain consistent, but that isn't guaranteed.

They have more incentive under the subscription model to create a better experience for the user.

Then how would you explain what netflix is doing to their customers?

yeah they were. I hope more people start doing it even if it doesn't legally hold water its still a good way to show that fediverse users won't stand for that.

Happy cakeday. And yeah deescalation requires both parties to open to de-arm not only one of them.

Honestly though the best case scenario of how this all ends doesn't really look great to me.

Either Russia loses the war, the government destabilizes, a power vacuum is formed which causes a power shift in a way likely to lead to more aggressive action in the future.

Or Russia wins the war, eyes other countries after it settles into Ukraine, NATO/US need to respond or else it sends the wrong message to other countries allied with them, and we head for WW3

Edit: There is also the idea of a stalemate and this just becomes a continuous war that doesn't really end, but honestly I can't see that being stable long term.

One of the side effects that I think might happen is that we could have local internet be more important than it was before since they would have to build the mesh networks within a community and with various standards which I think would be a good thing in the long run.

Stranger than fiction. It's a movie about someone who can hear the narrator. The main character is Will Ferrell but his character is a lot more serious than you'd expect (it does have a lot of good dry humor though). It's a good watch.

I'd say that its a bit too early to say that their tech will always be behind (if only because they have access to a lot of critical resources and probably will have ways to copy tech from other companies) but I can agree that their military is definitely not as experienced as the US.

Doesn't the US have AI driven aircraft now? I think it is a little bit late for them to be courting them.

Edit: grammar

Most of Brandon Sanderson's newer books make me feel like that.

Apparently it wasn't deadly enough. Maybe the bird flu will do the trick though /darkhumor
