My bet is on the cloudy sky. The crane is bound to run out of energy before doing any real damage.

Whatever your reasons, that was whataboutism.

Expecting others to know what goes on in NASA discussions is moronic at best. That’s not the topic we are in. You didn’t even link it or reference it.

The Indian caste system is a humanitarian crisis. Would you rather westerners ignore it? There’s just no winning then, is there?

Credit is definitely due and this is an amazing feat by India.

I haven’t bothered to discuss the other topic. Is there even any point when US issues are always on the front page here? I probably know more about US politics than my own country at this point.

Though of course you could also go there and take a jab at Americans. Let me know when you do so I can give you some support.

I’d be amazed if they don’t block commenting.

I don’t think hands are good at peeling potatoes. Maybe if you sharpen your nails?

Would slowing them down be enough? I’m thinking along the lines of a magnet.

Whataboutism bs. Two wrongs don’t make a right.

whataboutism /ˌwɒtəˈbaʊtɪz(ə)m/ noun the technique or practice of responding to an accusation or difficult question by making a counter-accusation or raising a different issue.

I’m guessing you have missed the dozen studies that make the headlines every year looking at the socieconomic impact on education? No matter, a learning opportunity if you wish to take it. Or don’t and carry on posing as an ignorant online presence.

Another great way to strip the poor of more freedoms.

Since when do we blame the responsible people when things go wrong?

Welcome to the world of training datasets.

There are many ways to go about it, but for a limited number they’d probably use human analysts.

But in general, they’d put a lot more effort into a chunk of data and use that as the truth. It’s not a perfect method but it’s good enough.

Have you tried rubbing a lamp?

Facebook has been abusing people’s mental illnesses for decades. It will take more than a statement on lemmy to fix that.

The fires are happening today.

I have thought about it for a while but the US is basically in a cold civil war, with a significant chance of it becoming hot. And it looks very similar to their previous one. Neither side seem to have a charismatic enough leader.

It’s easy to look over the pond and think it’s none of our problem. But if the US falls to chaos a lot of other countries will follow suit. We can already see this influence in the UK and I’d argue many other EU countries. Russia probably saw this weakness, bet on it worsening much quicker than it did, but lost that bet (so far).

With that said, addressing the US as a whole no longer makes sense. I’m sure plenty, plenty of Americans see what is happening.

It’s unfortunate that one of the wealthiest people on this planet has taken the anti-democratic side, but it’s not the first or the last time in history a powerful man, rich beyond measure has done so.

Thought they were just starting their war on it?

Coordinated yes. Carefully? Questionable.

Are those judges above the law? What a weird system.

Imagine Microsoft saying fuck Google, Internet Explorer is back, boys!

I can’t begin to imagine how people like this draw pleasure from life. This sort of evil is so extremely shallow. Have they ever even considered what they will think in their death bed? Or do they also just wanna kill themselves before it gets too bad, a la Hitler?

Yes, I have seen their market cap.

Fascinating how you have the ability to apply logic to the maths in question but not to what has caused the empty coffers.

Can humanity afford to prosper if it lets go of the overly greedy? Absolutely, mate. We have a wonderful, rich world and the ingenuity to use the resources wisely. What we lack is good governance.
