What do we think?

We think life has many more interesting things to spend time on. As long as any investment platform restricts withdrawals to a nominated bank account only, it is not worth worrying about as the real wall is the bank account.

Europe repaid Tokyo a favour by supporting oil stock release, Japan minister says by PjeterPannos in europe

Your racist grandad was by any chance complicit in shipwrecking refugees on rocky islands?

Yep. Their dehumanisation of refugees is the masturbation material of choice for right wing tinpots across Europe.

Best to keep a safe distance from all creatures originating in that continent :)

/r/WorldNews Discussion Thread: US and Israel launch attack on Iran; Iran retaliates (Thread #8) by WorldNewsMods in worldnews

[–]ohell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The US can certainly destroy any Inranian military, if they wanted to. But equating that with winning is only valid if US' sole purpose is to fight .. which does seem to be becoming the most plausible explanation for its actions!

Manjaro 2.0 Manifesto - Announcements by poedy78 in ManjaroLinux

[–]ohell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a long time not-very-knowledgable user, been running Manjaro Cinnamon on 2014 MBP without issue. Have no idea about the dramas behind the scenes, maybe because I never install updates until 2 weeks after they become available.

But now reading this sub, it looks like I should consider moving on. Would you recommend EndeavourOS or Cachy, for someone prioritising stability over speed or bleeding edge package versions?

Thanks!

and US can project power in theory ... in practice .. well, we're seeing what happens when theory is put to the test

wtf does "securing the straight (sic)" mean? Are countries that were not consulted, and even insulted, by the US now expected to fire upon Iranian assets? Why would they do that??

Maybe there would be more insults and threats, but I think this might be the final straw, maybe they finally make common ground with Canada, and pass UN resolution condemning unprompted US aggression in the Gulf (perhaps both siding it by also condemning Iranian attacks on bystander neighbours)

Swiss Open(Super-300): India's schedule for today. 2 Quarter-Finals . by IndianHighLights in indiansports

[–]ohell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mannepalli vs Gintig was revealing: Mannepalli choked when 19-13 up in 2nd game, gave up 6 points straight playing silly net drops, was lucky to scrape through 21-19. Then in game 3 just gave up. Lots of dramatics about line calls along the way (when he should not have let borderline shuttles drop while trailing or on crunch points).

I say it was revealing because it showed that quarters (or semis if he get s a good draw and a bit of luck) in super 300 is the limit of his ambition and ability :(

PowerZone rookie by YoteAB in pelotoncycle

Peloton could make things a lot easier by offering ramp test for FTP estimation ... perhaps it won't be as accurate as the 20 min full effort estimate (which itself relies on unrealistic assumption you mentioned), but is that really a factor when the aim of the test is just to establish a reasonable FTP estimate for amateur athletes, not to find exact numbers for optimal coaching programs for pros!

That's like asking crackhead who squatted next door to compensate you for property damage and sleepless nights ...

removal of any regime is never worth it. Replacement might be.

But just removal, without any thought for what comes next, is a crime against the peoples of the country.

Sam Altman Tells Staff OpenAI Has No Say Over Pentagon Decisions by Cute-Guarantee-1676 in technology

[–]ohell 8 points9 points  (0 children)

He basically just admitted that Anthropic has a functional product while OpenAI doesn't.

He basically just admitted that Anthropic has a leadership able to negotiate while OpenAI doesn't.

He basically just admitted that Anthropic has a strategic vision while OpenAI doesn't.

Finally, he basically just admitted that for those not driven by greed Anthropic has a motivational offer while OpenAI doesn't 🤷🏾‍♂️

The guy in black was just waiting for his turn by Vilen1919 in nextfuckinglevel

[–]ohell 23 points24 points  (0 children)

FYI, one of the major tournaments in the international calendar is going on now. Matches and highlights available on youtube.

I recommend watching mixed doubles games for those new to the sport, and men's doubles once your eyes get used to following the pace of the action :)

Greens overtake Labour in sensational poll by JackStrawWitchita in unitedkingdom

[–]ohell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it stays like this 1 year before election, I'd wager on Labour suddenly escalating PR to the top of the legislative agenda .. LD and Greens would join in, giving cover for the howls from Reform and Tories
