If your first instinct is to condemn this man for what he used to believe I would urge you to think about how we would ever go about affecting change without people like this who believe one thing, then see the error of their ways and change their mind. Sometimes a hypocrite is nothing more than a man in the process of changing.

Yeah, it sounds like a problem with a contributor to Shutterstock not following the terms of use. The person who put together the marketing materials for Loki was just using stock images. I don't think it should be on them to enforce shutterstock's TOU.

Attacking civilians is also plain and simple terrorism

So we're in agreement that this is essentially two terrorist states fighting each other? And the biggest losers in all of this will be the innocent Israeli and Palestinian citizens who just want to live their lives in peace. Meanwhile Hamas and the Israeli state get to go back and forth playing the their sick game of race-to-the-bottom-of-the-morality-barrel trying to blow each other to smithereens.

All of the pieces. On both sides of the board. Mentally it's much more taxing keeping track of which pieces are yours. We guys have it really easy with the whole black/white pieces.

Yeah, I liked the gorn episode, but it kinda came out of left field. I mean, it didn't help that in my head every time they would talk about the gorn in earlier episodes I would think of the dude in the green lizard suit, so I had this comical picture in my head of all these people being terrified of a guy in a silly outfit and was not mentally prepared for an alien remake...

I'm trying to reserve judgement until I see it, but the trailer did not do a great job of getting me excited to see this. It looked like it would be a made for tv movie that they'd stick on the Disney channel or something.

The expanse is great! Highly recommend it, and the books are even better.

The cynical part of me wants to say that's by design. That reddit wants to get rid of good moderation tools so that it can allow more paid astroturfung to get more revenue.

Spiro's letter complains about Meta hiring some of the many workers who were laid off or resigned from Twitter in the eight months since Musk bought the company.

"Over the past year, Meta has hired dozens of former Twitter employees... these employees had and continue to have access to Twitter's trade secrets and other highly confidential information," Spiro wrote in the letter to Zuckerberg. The workers, he alleged, "owe ongoing obligations to Twitter," and many "have improperly retained Twitter documents and electronic devices."

"We fired a bunch of people and you hired them to build the same thing they built for us! Not fair not fair!"
