Not my line- but you can have billionaires or you can have democracy.

Eventually, someone will Luigi Elon. Absolutely no one will care.

Whatever you want him to do, the next guy would reverse it in 2 months. Well done USA.

I love this. I will be using it as a punchline with my nerdy friends.

Close Cooperation with eachother. The USA can no longer be seen as a reliable partner with its wild ideological swings and a lack of strong commitment to the cause.

Make or break for a strong European State.

From a UK perspective we’re absolutely fucked due to Brexit. USA is unreliable, detached from the EU, what’s left? BRICS? Lol.

Shit.

He had been incorrectly identified as a terrorist and an imminent threat. The fuck up was not the person who fired the gun but whoever gave him the order.

Another Brit here, yes cops do get punished in high profile cases with video evidence such as this.

The contradictory examples listed above were quite complex cases from what I remember.

That said, as a teenager a friend of mine was beaten up in a police van in a case of mistaken identity. He was advised by his lawyer to drop the case as there was little chance of proving what happened as the police had smashed up his phone which he had been recording them with.

Due to the context of police officers being injured prior to what’s shown on tape. I expect in this instance, the cop to get a lenient pushiment.

That’s the one, I think it’s the 2nd to last mission.

The map in GTA3. There was a mission towards the end of the game I kept failing; to deliver a corrupt FBI agent to the airport. Eventually I realised, after studying the map, I could bypass all the road blocks by taking the light rail system. I felt like an 11 year old Einstein.

Being able to pay for for therapy, or being financially secure to admit to yourself that you have a problem is a privilage.

Perry Bible Fellowship is the best Web comic. Been reading it on/off for what must be 20 years now.

My sympathies.

Part of me wonders what a Greta Gerwig - Oppenhiemer and/or Christipher Nolan’s - Barbie would look like.

Anecdotal, but I don’t see the rush to downvote legit opinions because people disagree with them. Lemmy seems a lot more chill at present.

Oh I agree. My original comment was adding to the one preceeding mine, not a direct response to the article. Yes, the US needs GDPR, despite it making aspects of my job annoying I am glad it exists.

From the article: “Firms say this data is anonymized but the truth is that it can easily be de-anonymized. The data brokerage industry is pretty much totally unregulated, allowing for an assortment of unsavory customers to buy Americans’ data willy nilly.”

Isn’t this the real issue and not the headline? US really needs GDPR.

I can’t comment on that! Just that phone data is very valuable for transportation modelling!

Unfortunately, I am the boot in this case.
