And yet we both know that’s exactly what it is.

Taxpayers funding the creation of infrastructure… what a lunatic idea! /s

Redditors are 100% for bail reform, until it’s someone they don’t like, then they want summary executions.

Good luck with that, India isn’t exactly becoming more tolerant or accepting these days, quite the opposite. It’s a shame, but as long as Modi and the BJP are running the show, it’s a trend that will continue. Given how popular both the PM and party are, I’d assume that’s just what India is going for overall.

Probably an error of data entry or processing.

Generally speaking the people talking about private prisons have little idea of what they’re talking about; a lot of that has changed, and only about 14% of inmates are in private hands, and that number is falling.

BUT it was a talking point years ago, and people are slow to catch up.

> The male tenant had fled prior to officers arriving, police said. Officers and the court official returned to the east-side residence to find one adult and three baby alligators inside a tank, police said.

That would be very exciting, something born from the modern world rather than peri-WWII anxieties.

I mean the makeup of the Security Council is nuts, it should probably be the US, China, The EU, an SEA rep of some sort, and some sort of pan-African representation as well. Germany the UK and France all having a seat is just archaic, especially given their relative strength in modern terms.

The main results of Russia’s genocidal rampage will be:

A push to divest from Russia and China.

European and NATO unity that hasn’t been seen for decades.

New and critical NATO members who would have never joined without Russia’s insanity on display.

Ukraine will, in the long-run, hopefully be rebuilt with significant Western aid and flourish. After all the best revenge is living well, and while Russia rots away, Ukraine will grow.

…Nordstream. Nordstrom’s is an up-market department store.

You think Elon Musk would do that? Just go and make false claims for his own benefit? /s

It is encrypted, but not E2E encrypted; Apple has the keys and in theory could decrypt it on request from a government. This new policy will change that, even Apple won’t be able to decrypt your stuff, not even in principle.
