It's telling when the largest maker of these devices themselves put societal controls in place to curb the excesses of this device - yet they're failing miserably too. Or are they? Perhaps the result is also what they want interna

A bit tough to do when almost all Islamic-majority countries are located in Asia or Africa, where they're prone to dictatorial tendencies and nepotism runs galore. But the few European ones are doing alright - Albania, Bosnia, Kosovo,

This has to be by far one of the most ignorant and bigoted answers I've ever read on this site, or on this question in particular. If Islam is as unique as you say it is, why is it that Pakistan is able to constantly hold its ground ag

In this case, the account clearly stated: - 1.) We don't like your poster so you better remove it or we'll badmouth you within our network. 2.) You have 1 day to comply. 3.) You can instead work with an artist we will recommend (a

"It would be a pity if I were to tarnish jlarocco's reputation within my network. I even have his GitHub from his profile. I'll just talk shit about him to all the CTOs on the block and ensure he doesn't get a job again.

What's wrong with Coinbase? Sure they're in the crypto realm, but it's not like they're actively damaging the ecosystem. Coinbase has been far more reserved than Binance or the n number of crypto exchanges outside the US

Lots of bad marketing moves by Nike - wonder which middle management genius' idea it was to put that big ass poster right on the facade of a historic building, if anyone remembers. And their manufacturing quality has gone down the drai

Satellite tech like Starlinks need either very visible dishes, or in Starlink's case, local ground stations, to operate. I'm sure there are Iranian ground stations though, just that they're configured to mine crypto or obscur

Gavin Newsom vs Gavin Belsom. The tax is just Gavin positioning before the 2028 elections. Even taxing 1% of wealth annually makes more sense than this. And oh yeah, let's fund healthcare, but let's also sleep on the housing crisi
