You always have to ask: why? Why is it that the foundation he donated to stays “unnamed”? If he really wanted that foundation to thrive and be successful, which an actual and real donation would indicate, he’d drop its name, if for nothing else, but to make free advertisement for it, so, even more people donate to it.

“‘Bendergate’: ‘It’s About Self-Respect’”
Translation to plain English: It’s a money issue.

Hopefully he’ll hand on the torch to a strong female Ethan Hunt, because that would be so unique, inclusive, groundbreaking and much needed /s

“An international team of scientists says all-female termite colonies from Japan are the result of accidental hybridization, and that their highly robust nature makes them an ecological threat.”
Evolution theory would disagree on that. A species or population replicating merely through cloning should be neither robust,…

“Elon Musk might be designing some headphones”
As if Elon Musk would have contributed anything to any product of any company he was involved in, save of course duping both investors and also the public into believing that anything great coming out of these companies or efforts was his achievement, not that of hundreds…

This NFT fad can’t die soon enough. Also how telling that the only new feature Twitter introduces in a long time is something that 1) brings them money, but also 2) only brings them a mere $2.99 / month / per user, in relation to something that most of the users who could use it paid thousand if not million times…

Make that a $30 million fine, and then, possibly, they will consider not pulling a similar thing in the future. But while individual customers have to sue separately for their 100, 1000 or 10.000 dollars (which obviously 99% of them won’t do, because it won’t make financial sense for them), Robinhood will keep…

It’s always funny to see right-wing commenters trying to debunk well-founded accusations against them with comments that actually confirm said accusations. See comments below!

I’d assume most people store the remote with face up on the desk or on the couch (because that’s how we used to do that for decades), so, the solar cell that’s on the back of it, can’t possibly collect enough photons to charge up the battery. However, the Wi-Fi collector is obviously not constrained by that, and…

Sound like they don’t want people *to fall ill* (instead of not getting infected with the virus in the first place) during CES. Because 3 days are obviously more than enough to get infected, but the symptoms usually take at least 3-4 days to set on after infection.

“The algorithm or the users.”
Right. Instead of exposing moderators let’s expose the average users to mentally damaging violent content first, because, well, that will be so much better. Especially, that unlike moderators, users can be very young, already psychotic, etc - so, the content can be even more damaging to…

Oh, and who will flag the videos for moderation? You didn’t think before typing, again, did you?

O <——- the point made

Indeed it doesn’t for someone with your reading comprehension. Everybody else would realize that your “parallel” with the veterans’ health care is as flawed as it gets.

In the any reality where people have the brains to realize that shutting down TikTok or shutting down moderation is not a solution to the problem content moderation poses, and that unless you shut down the whole internet, people will find ways to share the damaging content, and the only thing you can achieve is that…

You realize that if there would be a way to tell in advance which videos are traumatizing, then there would be no need for these moderators at all, or that only moderators like these can tell the difference and save others from having to see those videos, and that’s exactly their job, right? No, you don’t, because…

No. What I’m saying is that it could be a lot worse if we’d follow the “genius” suggestions of commenters who say that TikTok should just hire more moderators and such. Because, guess what, then even more people would suffer from the stuff. That would not solve anything, just make things worse. Same thing if TikTok…

It’s irrelevant how much money they made. They agreed to doing the job for the money offered, and they agreed to do that job for that money every single day they showed up at their workplace, knowingly well at least after their first workday what they were in for.

Now, if you could attack the original point I made, you wouldn’t have to construct a straw man, would you?
