We can’t even do an express railway neither…

(in truth it took me a few baffled minutes to get the joke, though enjoyed the background painting whilst furrowing my brow)

Stunning.

Hope the mystery signed brick will go in along with your own plaque to future humans.

Very cool & giving me some inspiration for… stuff.

Momentarily thought they were mailing out hard copies, as they seek a mailing address to check out a book. I get this is likely to comply with copyright obligations, or just because the charity lacks the resources to supply the entire world, but it is a vulnerability should the library be attacked. Suggest users furnish addresses they do not live at - ideally non-residential addresses - addresses of campaign offices of local homophobic & transphobic representatives would work, but so would govt departmental buildings or commercial premises which are used by a lot of people (best to not put some randomer at risk).

Because when your incredibly distressed child needs an explanation for the horrors they just saw on their screen, you suddenly feel more willing to accept a much higher level of dire conditions to shield your child from experiencing war.

It would be very rare not to do so.

Most poll results give the margins of error of the method(s) used. No idea if this one did or not, but 2% and 3% don’t seem dramatic enough to not be explicable by margin of error issues.

Would put some of that down to people making errors with checkboxes, comprehension issues & trolling.

But yeah, some people just like conviction regardless of their thoughts on a case.

Beautiful.

Some archaeologist is going to find this one day. Be fun to include a plaque with a message for them (and for anyone who uses it after you).

Easy to let despondence & cynicism override reality, but if it were true that voting does nothing, nobody would put such effort into discouraging us from voting; into confusing us so much that we disengage.

Standing in line to tick may feel too tiny to count, but everything counts, from the mysterious interactions of subatomic particles to your most basic civic interaction with the rest of your nation (voting).

The few that might like the idea are too lacking in power to attempt, and in any case are easy for a flight between Israel & the US to avoid. Can’t even see any of them denying access to their airspace.

He’d also unlikely to be travelling via a regular commercial passenger flight, as Navalny was.

Aye, but let’s not reduce plant-based lives to a few leaves of bare iceberg lettuce with occasional cherry tomato.

Rejecting animal exploitation is glorious in itself, and (handful of very rare medical conditions excepting), requires no diminution in sustenance, deliciousness, sensuality & social aspects.

None of these images are lifted from ads or articles promoting steps toward an ever more ethical lifestyle, and if they were they’d be so unsustainable as to be counterproductive. They’re just pushing more capitalism via dodgy beauty standards of the ruling class (with hefty side helping of “you tried that juice fast that one time to get into that dress, you couldn’t possibly go vegan, here’s some nice dead bullock instead, and lashings of drugs & cosmetics tested on animals to mitigate the toll which eaten animal fats take on your body”)

Vegans are as prone to the ease of junky food as everyone else, but let’s not pretend that we’re on undressed fucking lettuce & about it. Though I suppose I too would be cackling mirthlessly about it if I were, whether in a hide-the-pain-Harold way, or more likely, paradoxical euphoria from lack of nutrients & dopamine in the brain.

Yes, but now consider the state of the ladies in the OP who have tomatoes.

Insanity lies beyond the crisis

(actually love tomatoes, but may be faintly deranged also)

If conditions cannot be guaranteed, the court can uphold his appeal and deny the order.

Whether or not that ruling would in turn be appealed by the US DoJ to the UK Supreme Court is moot. Ditto chance of success if it is. Between impinging on the right to freedom of expression & the horrors of the US penal system, extradition is likely illegal under UK human rights law.

Here’s hoping they prevail & that they inspire others either way.

Do like the slogan on that banner.

Because psyop.

Which isn’t to say that there aren’t genuine participants; only that it is notable that XR, JustStopOil, InsulateBritain, et al all materialised at the same time, seemingly from nothing, with expensive publicity campaigns, and performing actions guaranteed to be alienating at best.

That likely explains things. Thank you! Am here via Memmy.

Cheers. That worked. What a spooky coincidence! Can’t think why it would have been blocked.

The word it translates to is not visible for me in your comment.

Could be that it got censored out somehow - there’s a double space between “as” and “which”.

It is also a natural thing to think of, and easy for anyone over the age of 7 or 8 to figure out how to do it effectively.

As it is true that very little of settlements or awards like this will be paid out to affected users, I’d like to see legislation amended so that a large percentage of the sum has to be used for major privacy education campaigns, pushed online & through every other media, created and overseen by robust privacy organisations.

In a case like this, I’d want to compel Google to target users of Incognito Mode with privacy education material - again created & overseen by privacy orgs.

Last thing Google wants is to be compelled to show slick, unskippable privacy education clips on every Youtube video.

It probably does, but users would have to click through to an information page. Mostly people seemed to be using it based on misinformed recommendations from others.

Also got the impression that most believed the sites they were using via Incognito mode could not recognise them unless they logged in. Similar features on other browsers had similarly misleading names.

“session mode” might be a less misleading term, but it isn’t nearly so snappy.
