There is nothing to accept, just look at the videos that were released. They showed the police office both during and after the riot, standing comfortably with no crowd interaction. The videos also showed the most violent people in the building were basically walking quickly and picking up stuff, not even damaging it, just picking it up.

January 6th was completely politicized. Their reason for the event itself was to protect election integrity in fact in their mind. Also they already released videos showing inside the building was much more a tour than a riot. And the police officer that "died" the next day was simply just standing there with no interaction with the crowed the entire time. It was entirely politicized like everything involving politics always is from both sides.

But its actually a good idea. When you try to limit China's access they innovate around it and come out ahead. Deep Seek proved that. For anyone who wasn't paying attention, China built a better AI model without access to any chips whatsoever (apparently). China has been spending billions working on their own chip technology and supposedly already have even better chip technology underway if you believe their reports. It's actually better to keep them dependent on our chips and have those chips be the base layer for AI across the world. Sometimes when you refuse to sell a man a fish, they learn to fish themselves and better than you. This is one of those cases.

He did not capitulate, they quiet literally fought Brazil on this because Brazil's constitution includes freedom of speech and were successful after Brazils people voiced their concerns. They were allowed to tell the people banned why they were being banned, instead of being forced to do it in secret. There has never been ANYONE banned for using the word cisgender, only for calls to violence. A flight tracker can be considered the same as doxxing, giving the real time location of someone you dislike is harassment.

Wikipedia's editors are in many cases making political biased decision on what is posted, that's a great reason to boycott it in the name of free speech. There was not anyone banned for pro-gaza views. People were banned for calling for violence against people. There was not anyone banned for disagreeing with any right wing or left wing views, doxxing is not allowed as it is as good as a call to violence. The entire algorithm is completely public, X/Twitter is the ONLY social media website that has done that. Lauren Loomer is verified as of now you can check.

Elon Musk has done more for free speech than anyone since the founding fathers. Heâ(TM)s pulled out of countries like Brazil that supposedly have free speech in their constitution but where they were requiring X/Twitter to ban their political opponents AND requiring that X/Twitter not disclose that the ban came from a government order. They brought all this to light, and the only people being banned from X quiet literally are those calling for murders or doxxing people in the hope that someone will murder for them.

Comment Reddit Bots are a Problem (Score 3, Informative) 36

Reddit has always allowed you to sign up anonymously without an e-mail. It is literally full of bots, not just making comments but making upvotes/downvotes in favor of their owners' comments. I know people who said they had 10 reddit accounts just so they could pump their own "karma" on the site. I also have seen people brag about their bot usage and pump a post with thousands of upvotes in the matter of minutes. This is just more data showing that bots are still a problem that needs to be taken care of Reddit.

Their whole Office Suite is about to get taken over if they are not careful. Google Sheets is usable and preferred by some. Google Docs is usable. Gmail beats New Outlook. Teams has been completely neglected and is still in a form that can be replicated easily. Google could easily take over the Microsoft Office Suite monopoly if they just tried.

Comment Net Neutrality isn't solving a problem. (Score 1) 76

It is preventing a problem. TV is the perfect example. Broadcasters had to pay to have their channel. Anyone without a channel could not get their message out. Net Neutrality protects the pipes from being monopolized like they have in the past. Without it we would probably still be paying 10 cents for a text and probably be paying 10 cents per e-mail too because instead of the internet being a tree with branches of options for traffic it would turn into single pipes.

Microsoft has lost heir mind. They are taking a car and transforming it into a bicycle for what, so that it has less parts to maintain? They are killing every useful feature and most importantly its extreme utility and customizability with VBA. I wouldn't be surprised of Google takes advantage of this. Gmail by itself is already better than new Outlook. Once everyone is forced to use New Outlook, all Google has to do is make a better offering and make migrating emails over easy.
