That’s just capitalism. But yeah, they can just bailout since the concept of separate legal entities means that individual investors aren’t held responsible for corporate losses.

Technology@lemmy.zip•AI data center bans are rapidly multiplying across the US — 69 jurisdictions block new builds, with four moves noted as permanentEnglish

World News@lemmy.world•Britain quietly approves $11.85m arms licence to Israel despite Gaza banEnglish
5·1 day agoAnd France, especially Germany, and a fair bit of Europe, sadly. France is being lobbied hard by Israel to fast-track bans against Palestine action.
3.58 to 3.56 billion isn’t really significant because in the long term these sort of mega corporations can easily recover that many users.
But I like they’re getting covered in debt, though idk how far it is from collapse as these numbers don’t make much sense to me.

Canada@lemmy.ca•Xenophobic, racist tropes drive online hate against racialized women and LGBTQI+ people
3·2 days agoWhat’s the summary/key excerpt?
France is fast-tracking anti-protest laws infringing on freedom of speech not only complicit in but actively pushing for the Zionist genocide of Palestinians.
They’re legislating for protest against zionism to become criminal with jail sentences in France.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Are some people losing their humanity in the age of AI?
18·8 days agoQuick facts:
- Slavery only ended 1-2 centuries back.
- Women didn’t have voting rights until the last century in the US.
- Gay marriage wasn’t recognized anywhere until 2001.
- We’ve had two unnecessary global wars, one with nukes going off.
Yeah, I’d say humans haven’t been very human for a good while now.
France isn’t doing enough of that lately with the fascist pro-genocide turn it’s taking lately.

Linguistics@mander.xyz•Universal patterns emerge across 22 languages, mapping how vocabularies evolve
3·14 days agoIf only they expanded on what those patterns tend to actually look like (besides merely mentioning that popular words are found with other popular words) in a way that could be used to inform language learning

Europe@lemmy.dbzer0.com•EU members reject push to suspend association agreement with Israel
1·18 days agoIt seems to be mostly focused on detaching themselves from the us and dealing w other enemies like Russia / china , not so much ending funding for genocide (CMIIW)

Europe@lemmy.dbzer0.com•EU members reject push to suspend association agreement with Israel
1·18 days agoAppreciate the explanation
I thought it was like the UN, where the US, UK, France, Russia and China had veto powers and could essentially single-handedly block any move repeatedly regardless of what any other country (asides from these) vied for.
It seems the kind of majorities the EU requires for legislation to pass makes it so that one naturally loses any real hope for change for the EU, since someone or the other will realistically always be blocking legislation.
Germany has a bad history with fascism, and is no different today, and it being more populous doesn’t help.

Europe@lemmy.dbzer0.com•EU members reject push to suspend association agreement with Israel
4·18 days agoHow come Germany and Italy get to block the move when you have FIVE other countries pushing for it?
Do they have veto power or some shit?

Lemmy.World Announcements@lemmy.world•Update: anarchist.nexus has been refederated
405·19 days agoSurprise surprise Lemmy isn’t entirely different from Reddit in that:
- It kills a community over the name of one user (yes I’m aware it was an admin)
- Said admin had beef with this user, which they conveniently left out in their post description
- It’s got shameless hypocrisy too where calls to death from zionism is acceptable but not the other way around
For the record, I am not for calling anyone’s death as that’s not my thing, but have some consistency hypocrites. Smh.

Technology@lemmy.world•Goodbye device ownership, and the last vestiges of free speech will die with this bill as well.English
4·21 days agoStrange how that works given hunger is how regimes suppress rebellions.



It’s a lot of people but big tech can easily get back those numbers.
Let’s see how the tendency unrolls over the long-term.
