Reddit has had issues for years, that’s why so many of us are here.

Oh, you meant the aws thing.

A lot of gatekeepers in the comments who seem to love the idea of a UBI, but hate any attempt to test the viability of one.

I think this is a great step towards proving the benefits of a UBI for the greater population. I believe supporting the arts is always a positive endeavour, so using them as the pilot program kills two birds with one stone. I think that randomising who gets to enter the pilot program may allow some people to game the system, but the benefits outweigh the possibility of one schyster scamming a paycheque. The lottery system stops this becoming a bonus for established or famous artists, and supports creatives in all areas.

All in all, this is a good thing, and the people who want “all or nothing” are short sighted.

Sure, but removing knowledge kind of goes against what creating a Wikipedia backup is about…

And how many of these comedians hold their tongue regarding religion and people of power when performing in their home country? Or when touring internationally on non-state-funded tours?

Don’t take my opinion of these comedians as anti-Saudi. I was plenty anti-Saudi before this. If these ‘comedians’ agreed to take money from the US president to not make mean jokes about him, I’d be just as disgusted at their lack of spine.

Not the same scenario. The equivalent would be these comedians doing a set that was paid for by the White House, with a list of restrictions on what could be said. Which would receive just as much backlash

I don’t think this is an image that you could view openly in a regular workplace, even if there is no dick and balls in the image. It’s a raunchy screenshot from a porno.

War against who? Do we have the perpetrator? Do we know their political affiliation? The Trump shooter was a registered Republican. Are they waging war against their own party?

Obviously they don’t need evidence to be horrifically violent shit stains, they’ve managed that well enough so far.

I can see the train of thought that these dunderheads would have. “We arrested you because we thought you were the shooter. You weren’t, and because we arrested you, we let the real shooter get away. This is your fault.”

This is somehow worse than I imagined. This looks like the sort of coded calling card a serial killer who dismembers women would leave at the scene of his crimes.

The next time I found him after unlocking the needolin, I rushed around to earn enough silk to play with him as long as possible.

This mindset from people is what makes online multiplayer games unplayable for me.

I don’t get a lot of time to play games as an adult. When I do, I don’t particularly want people telling me how I should be having fun. There is this weird competition that happens where you need to know everything about a game before you are allowed to partake in the game. It sucks to have missed out on so many experiences, but i guess my not playing sub-optimally made someone else’s experience better, so it’s all good.

I think, in western media at least, that the tank is rarely used as an image of defence. A tank’s artillery is not personal or protective, it obliterates its targets from a distance. Its treads allow it to travel in terrain that has been decimated by war. The image of a tank ominously rolling over rubble and bodies in a war zone is contractually obliged to be in every war movie.

The heavy armour on a tank is perhaps its only ‘defensive’ trait, but it only exists to let the men inside blow things up for as long as possible.

It’s an all terrain cannon, and a country owning a fleet of them requires their neighbours to also invest in a fleet of them, just in case. This then causes their neighbours to invest in more tanks just to be extra ‘safe’
