John Pilger was an extremely well-known and revered journalist in his era. That you don’t know him is of no consequence to him or those that knew and respected his work, nor does your lack of knowledge diminish his status as a well-respected journalist. He was indeed an icon of journalism in Australia and utje UK and won multiple awards over 3 decades of work. If you choose to be ignorant that’s on you but stop confusing your ignorance and laziness with a valid opinion.
It’s fucking 2024. Use a search engine and stop advertising your ignorance.
No it’s not better than no news. What’s better is that publications tell people like to go jump.
Wait you think geoblocking news is a good solution? What the actual fuck
Spectre TVs are cheap because they compete at a lower tier and are priced to attract buyers to what is essentially an unknown brand.
Barking at people who try to help isn’t retaliation- it’s just shitty.
How’s the mental wellbeing of women and foreign workers in Dubai? Know many gay men who feel safe there?
Yeah they really respect women and foreign workers - so much respect. Fuck the UAE and fuck anyone for thinking it’s a respectable nation.
I mean it’s Grilld - they did this on purpose.
The meme said they didn’t use it not that they didn’t apply it.
Maybe smoke less of the maryjayjay. Dude.
Yeah you are. You can’t use electricity without it.
This seems extremely poorly researched.
By far my favourite ST game is 25th Anniversary from Interplay released in 1992. I grew up in the 70s so TOS was very near and dear to me. In 92 I was reviewing games right at the peak of CD ROM and MS DOS gaming and 25th Anniversary really typified the best of both by including beautiful VGA graphics and a fantastic soundtrack complete with actual sounds from the series and the entire cast in their signature roles. Playing it was like being in the show, nothing else has quite replicated that feeling because it was like the cast was putting on a performance just for me.
I understood the sarcasm but felt it better to be clear for the trumpist morons who read these discussions. Note I didn’t say “But he is”, it was more adjunct to the comment rather than critical of it. It’s basically a citation.
Of course companies have that authority - it’s something that can even protect us which we often support. When we mark messages as spam they eventually tag senders as spammers who can get blocked from delivering messages at the provider, device and vendor level. What about emergency warnings - should we be able to opt out of those too?
I agree that we need capitalism with oversight to encourage ethical behaviour but you’re missing a key point to illustrate a pretty biased perspective.
iMessage is not a stamp in this analogy - it is a whole separate post office and infrastructure, including staff and policies.
You’re mischaracterising the argument.
It’s really sad seeing how far you’ll go to justify your ignorance. In your mind you don’t need to know something because you don’t know it and you justify that ignorance by weighing your lack of knowledge against some arbitrary value judgement where some other information you pretend to know outvalues what you don’t - that’s some incredible armchair expertise. You proudly and loudly assert your valid reasons for being ignorant, that’s fascism thinking personified. How small-minded. I sympathise with anyone who has to deal with you in discussion - what a chore it must be.
