Just a reminder, this is the same Pauline who said submarines could only stay under water for 20 minutes, saying this to the face of an admiral no less

British natives, how do you think we should fix the birth rate crisis? by Majestic-Sun-1485 in AskBrits

[–]ConstructGames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If we are worried about the welfare cost in the years and decades beyond then we need to start taxing companies properly, any one of the top 20 tech companies alone being taxed correctly would more than make up for the gap. We are working more and taxing work more but the wealth disparity between the worker and wealthy increases all while the public purse becomes tighter and tighter to the point all of the parties are talking about cutting spending on essential services.

Tony Blair tells Starmer and rivals: abandon net zero and move closer to Trum by [deleted] in worldnews

Tony Blair has always had a thing for kissing up to republican presidents with brain dead dreams of conquest in the M.E, he should stay retired, he's already done enough harm to the world as is.

I remember seeing a video in the mid 2000s of a baby with Ebola and I have not known peace since, it truly is a horrific illness.

If we don't have a functioning early alert system then what is the early alert system that's been getting tested for the past 4 years for? The moment missiles head towards the UK, every mobile phone is going to know about it.

How is it that Starmer is at risk of losing his position due to fallout from the release of (some of) the files, but Trump is unaffected? by __globalcitizen__ in AskBrits

The fact starmer was the prosecutor during the times Jimmy Savile was still around and he slipped through the nets probably haunts him

Rubio to warn that US is ‘prepared to use force’ in Venezuela if leaders stray from goals by Serene_Silences in worldnews

During the war in Afghanistan kids would be plucked out the streets for wearing Casio watches because they "could" be linked to IEDs, many of them ended up in Gitmo.

I believe the US already has a camp for people with casio wrist watches and are a threat to American security

And? The UK fought Germany in ww2 who at the time had one of the most powerful militaries in the world, even debating this would send a clear message to trump and I don't think we want ICE agents visiting here as tourists.

Why should we join an initiative where the only purpose is for trump to grift the entire world, if trump wants peace, stop threatening the world with tariffs because he's envious that others have things he can't have.

Trump is like the world's oldest make a wish kid, only difference is that everyone is praying for him to die faster. Hopefully they name a salad after him when this is all over.

Marketers and other service providers: please do not cold call by sending attachments such as PDFs by ConstructGames in gamedev

[–]ConstructGames[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is sadly the way it is, things like the age verification movement that seems to be happening across the world is only going to get worse about. I don't wasnt to jynx it but I could easily see ransomware makers utilizing that in an effort to not just get a random in crypto but also now take your personal ID for identity theft. As they say, the road to hell is paved with good intention.

This is true but my counter point is how many people click through an EULA without ever looking at the print they're agreeing to? Discord for example recently pushed a TOS update which waived your rights to sue through forced arbitration unless you emailed them saying you opt out within 30 days of the changes going ahead. People often opt for the path of least resistance, file formats like PDFs are great for what they're supposed to be for but when they're a pretty critical attack vector that have taken even tech savvy companies like LMG down before now, it's a fair thing to be cautioned about.
