After that same guy didn't tear down the system the first time, rather giving into lobbyist interests far more than any other 'career politician' in modern American history, such as in beating the record for inaugural bribe collection he himself set eight years ago, you'd think more people would at least recognize that Trump's promises are either smoke in the wind or just a means for private interests to enrichen themselves at the expense of the American people.

Counting deaths alone in Gaza and the West Bank ignores all the Palestinian refugees that have been forced to leave Palestine altogether; in either case, Israel wants to settle the rest of Palestine to cement their claim to it and control over it.

It's crazy that he can grift his supporters again and again and only get -more- support in the process...

Returning to a state of stable government as soon as possible seems like an important priority, rather than delaying it as much as possible...

They probably made more than $20 million from kids buying loot boxes without parental consent, making the fine just a cost of doing business...

While Doom running in unexpected ways is neat, it's not so great if it depends on non-standard browser components.

Terrorism is wrong, whether conducted by Palestinians or Israelis. I therefore think the ideal ceasefire would have war criminals from both sides shipped to The Hague.

Recognizing that that isn't going to happen though, 30–50 Palestinians per Israeli is also around what the war casualties have been thus far...

Not that TikTok isn't a problem for those reasons, but Facebook and Twitter are being used to spread far-right propaganda now too, just without the direct state-level control that applies to TikTok.

Anyone who thinks he'll do it at all is delusional; he's gotten $200 million in bribes to increase corporate profits, not lower them.

Without continued development though, new games are likely to have an increasing number of issues running on either emulator.

Even Starlink: Battle for Atlas, the closest thing to a Star Fox game on the Switch (can't just get another version of it, since the Star Fox DLC is Switch-exclusive), crashes in both Yuzu and Ryujinx, something I'd hoped would eventually be fixed before the emulators were taken down.

It'd be great if California's consumer privacy protections could be applied at the federal level, but as long as the Republicans retain the presidency, either house of congress, or the Supreme Court, it would either never get passed or simply get struck down and returned to the state regulatory level.
