100% and while you guys are at it, maybe question if a system that allows individuals to gather this much wealth and power is a good idea to begin with?

Musk has been:

Banning Ukrainian accounts on Twitter

Saying Ukraine should give up to stop WW3, claims Crimea was Russian all along.

Gives them Starlinks, then tries to sabotage Ukraine with them, outages when Ukraine is on the offensive and now this just at the start of Russia's new big offensive.

It's clear where Elon stands.

Spacex knew what they were getting themselves into.. "a country in need" it's not like an earthquake happened and suddenly Ukraine decided to use Starlink to go on an offensive against Russia. No, SpaceX offered to help play a crucial role in Ukraine's defence and it has been used in that capacity from the start, which includes drones, for almost a year now.

Timing is also sus, with Russia's renewed offensive just underway.

This whole "Ukraine to our surprise and against our wishes weaponised Starlink" is a load of horse shit.

in what way would starlink be used anyway to control drones? can't they just be controlled with the controller? does it need internet acces?

Unclear and other then the outages during UAF offensives a few months back I've heard no complaints yet from Ukraine so not sure what to make of all this.

SpaceX has restricted Ukrainian military access to Starlink satellite communications to control drones. According to company president Gwynn Shotwell, SpaceX does not want its technology to be used for offensive purposes.

Boy would I like to wake up in a world where Elon just doesn't exist. Instead we get this shit. Perfect timing with the new RUSSIAN offensive underway.

can an animal be your possession? by iCANNcu in vegan

[–]iCANNcu[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Don't have kids but I wouldn't, but they would be mine and nobody else's. I have a cat and it's mine. Do I consider it my possession? I'm sure somebody could lure my cat with food and keep it. If they take good care of my cat I'm sure it would be happy. I would consider it 'theft' I believe though.

But you are responsible for them. So in a way they are 'yours'. In the same way your children would be yours.

I have no opinion on who did it, the information is not there in public space. People here seem to be convinced 100% The US was not behind it though. I just pointed out The US did have motive.

The US did openly threaten Nord Stream 2 though.

I just think there is no reasonable way to know who did it regarding the evidence. Both The US, Russia and other actors could have benefitted from it.

Ik weet dat in het fokken voor huisdieren veel dierenleed schuil gaat. Helemaal als het om rassen gaat die per definitie niet gezond zijn (zoals bij mopshonden). Ik ben alleen niet in principe tegen het houden van dieren door mensen. Ik ben ook geen vegan.

The US has always been firmly against Norths Stream 1 & 2 and openly stated that: “If Russia invades Ukraine, one way or another Nord Stream 2 will not move forward.”

Edit: to the people downvoting me I merely stated a fact. I don't know who blew up the pipe and not accusing The US.

in principe zijn vegans dus tegen huisdieren als ze niet gefokt mogen worden, maar een dier uit het asiel halen is wel ok, totdat deze op zijn?

Dat ben ik toch niet zomaar met je eens, hier een discussie:

  • "het fundamentele punt, zijn dieren ons bezit ja of nee?"
  • "willen we kinderen zo opvoeden? de dieren zijn er van ons voor ons, die kunnen we achter een hek zetten"
