A fascinating and hilarious conversation: > SS: I know, but this is a problem for me because "porno" has no meaning, it's an empty gesture. This is the whole problem today. Okay, so tell me, what would it be like to have s

Official NATO stance, as President Biden has repeatedly said, its to defend EVERY INCH of NATO territory - so if Russia parked one tank inside of the Polish border, all of NATO is at war with Russia. If NATO does not respond with force, or

Media coverage of these protests is vastly negative. I remember only a few years ago (2020) when protests were undoubtedly violent across the United States. Video evidence of this violence as well as mass crowd driven theft was widely docum

Interesting. I like Hacker News because its community is so great compared to nearly every other platform I know. Too bad that we can't talk about stuff like this.

What Hobbes appears to want is Free Speech, but only for the greatest denominator. That is not Free Speech. Free Speech is the open forum, where we trust in our fellow men and women to observe the voices of others, make up their minds, come

The problem is that the mouthpiece is assuming a monopoly over truth. It is utterly arrogant for any entity to do so. Let the talking heads debate, and the minds of men and women in the world decide. If we abandon faith in each other to di

Very sad. The internet was crafted and promoted in a spirit of radical social experimentation, where all kinds of ideas could be shared at light-speed all over the world, each man could have a mouthpiece, and we'd have access to the gr

I feel the author is forgetting that anything made out of plastic comes from oil derivatives. Another reason oil is an incredible resource. Can anyone comment on this?
