Poe’s Law of the internet.

The article actually goes easy on them. The first plaintiff sued because the student was brought into the principal’s office and told they were being suspended for drug use, and as evidence showed a photo of them eating something in their room. It turned out to be Mike and Ike’s candy. The family was so upset they were spying on the child in their bedroom that it escalated to an investigation and then the scandal unfolded.

The school tried to backpedal and claim that the app takes photos on a timer and they had no idea, and this was proven to be a lie in court when they showed the IT training video explaining how proud they were of the webcam snooping feature.

Sounds very Klingon.

And 15% of the world’s prisoners.

In his diary entries from 1895, Herzl unambiguously advocated for the forced emigration of Palestinians, writing “to spirit the penniless [Palestinian] population across the border by denying it any employment in our own country… Both the process of expropriation and the removal of the poor must be carried out discreetly and circumspectly.” He envisioned a program of strict ethnic segregation, denying Palestinians employment and economic opportunities, to compel their exodus.

Herzl believed this combination of ethnic separation and forced transfer, or ethnic cleansing, could be made to appear voluntary, masking the violent reality. This cynical blueprint of demographic engineering through discrimination and dispossession was perhaps his most insidious contribution to the ideology of settler colonialism.

We still don’t understand quite how the brain works or how consciousness comes from neurons.

It could have been an hour, it was first mentioned in the earliest comics that the webbing fades away, and I’m not sure what they said more recently.

According to the comics, webbing dissolves and fades away after a day.

Their goal is to be profitable. Whether that means embracing standards for good PR or fighting standards if it benefits them, it doesn’t matter. Money matters.

Did you want specific accounts?

Palestinian Shebab News Agency has facebook pages shut down

@Eye.on.palestine on IG suspended by Meta, then back up after a backlash.

#IStandWithPalestine and #FreePalestine getting censored by Facebook

Numerous actual popular accounts and news sources have been suspended. It was major news in the Arabic-speaking world in October. Meta even apologized for auto-translating Palestinian as “terrorist.”

As opposed to Threads stealing all brands companies and users anyway?

There’s still advantages to a fediverse and ways to defend against “embrace extend extinguish” if you plan ahead.

We can’t complain about proprietary networks if we don’t allow others to join our own open ones.

There’s a lot of trolls and bad people out there. When talking to people or debating someone, a handy tip is to try to assume the other person is acting in good faith until they give you a reason to doubt them. That way you’re not attacking a person for asking a legitimate question.

It’s not distance, it’s more frequency.

It’s on my Home Screen, but I wish it was easy to send images. That’s the only major downside, trying to share an image from Lemmy only shares a link.

Blame the French.

RISE AND SHINE

Melatonin helps. It’s a natural chemical your brain releases to help make you drowsy at bedtime and you can get it over the counter to help sleep. It also resets your biological clock which makes it helpful for jet lag.

That with noise cancelling headphones or earplugs, a sleep mask to cover the eyes, and laying as flat as possible (even paying for business class) all help.

Because people are not caricatures and don’t have 100% agreement with one political side or another. That’s why you have some Democrats who oppose gun control and some Republicans who support abortion. Politics is a spectrum, not something to pidgeonhole people into.

This isn’t hard if you understand the words and their meanings.

So he’s Leftwing on abortion and rightwing on vaccines.
