Less shock value -> less publicity -> less people thinking about your message

Should everyone go destroy art galleries? Housing crisis = art destruction?

Do you not agree? Over half a million homeless are without homes. People are dying, and the homeless are largely being dehumanized or ignored. There is a very real human cost far beyond a piece of art or the barrier protecting it.

If you're looking for objective quantifiable criteria on right vs wrong, you'll never find it. Morality often falls into a grey area involving tradeoffs, but bringing attention to a societal issue with huge human costs just for splashing soup on a plastic barrier seems pretty effective to me.

What an incredible website. Use of page you go to read their privacy policy is blocked by the popup that requires you to accept their privacy policy before continuing to use their site.

He desperately wanted to be speaker. He was pissed off when it took him many votes to get the role, actively negotiating for the job he should've been a shoo in for.

Then even once he had it, he was doing anything he could to appease the freedom caucus, including the unilateral impeachment investigation and the shutdown threat.

In averting the shutdown he essentially resigned, but at that point he was a broken man who was tired of selling his soul to appease the far right. Lets not act like he didn't do everything's short of shutting down the government to avoid this.

When the state responsible for the genocide is reliant on our military aid its disingenuous to refer to it as a "genocide on the other side of the planet"

That would make business side incentives more aligned with the user side, but I could never see anything with a high barrier of entry accumulating enough users to actually be usable.

Maybe its free at first and as it grows in size and activity the cost goes up? That feels kinda sketchy

“You see the mob takes the Fifth”

“If you're innocent, why are you taking the fifth?"

Also worth noting Israel is very advanced with respect to cybersecurity. Considering they provide tools like Pegasus to US intelligence agencies, I'm sure the agencies value this relationship very much.

Reminds me of the beginning of the pandemic when he tried to dismiss the initial uptick in covid cases as a migrant worker problem.

I see this more as a tool for people who notice reduced battery life and want to do something about it. Currently they essentially need to guess if the battery is the issue and get it replaced to find out.

If you notice your battery life shortening, the health check can either confirm that you will see improvement with a new battery, or it will tell you your battery is okay, and reduced life is due to software changes or increased usage.

Yes, the stock market did so much better under Trump. There are many many reasons underlying the performance of the market under each of them.

For example most of the time trump was president was pre pandemic, but Biden was president through most of the pandemic. Trump was also president during the pandemic stimulus and enhanced unemployment payments, then Biden was president when all of that spending materialized into inflation which spooked the markets, and then caused interest rates to rise, prompting the tech layoffs

The movement more than three months into the counteroffensive is significant in that it shows Ukrainian troops have crossed at least the first of three Russian defensive lines and are at or near the second line.

It appears there are three

I would also say it could be manslaughter if the stress from the retaliation from whistleblowing caused him to kill himself

You didn't have to do anything?

I rode it out as long as I could, but the day came where the only post in my feed was a reddit post about the API changes

Good point. I guess that depends on a quality over quantity promise, which I guess would also fit op's idea.

I've thought about it. It's a lot harder to pull off when rent is $1500 a month.

War always has civilian deaths. It's an unfortunate consequence.

This is different. Gaza is being flattened by the indiscriminate bombing. Its ridiculous.

It sounds like you want an echo chamber?
