To be fair, me as a south European kid I had an hard time to understand where the issue was there 😅 Sure power imbalance but more something to frown upon rather than the huge deal it became.

I think it is better that that kind of “scandals” are not happening any more

Wait! Vatican recognized Palestine?!?

Either way if what Spain said is true and Europe becomes green as well, it would be pretty much US, Australia and Israel to not recognize Palestine

Well there are billionaires that do pump and dump. He just seem a decent human being 😃

Clearly misread the tone of the comment 😃 nvm

Given we are already seeing AI applications in Military… I suspect Asimov was a bit optimistic 😅

You are really not talking about this any more.

What Germany has to do with this? What war has to do with this?

If you weren’t a trustworthy internet stranger i would make conjectures that this is a topic that hits you personally and you live in Germany. And you are talking about yourself here.

But good you are a trustworthy internet stranger that totally would not look in all possible provisions and exceptions for justifying their actions

I never felt so close to try NetBSD as after reading this 😃

I guess each person is different. I have zero sexual interest for women under (at very least) 25 (i am slightly older than him at the time they meet)

Even if they look older than they are, i still have no interest because there is too much different life experience and expectations. I just don’t click (as a friend let alone as lover or partner).

Why 18 and not 17 or 25? Well society decided this is a (imo conservative, could have been higher) threshold for old people to have sex with young people.

Also 17 year old people can totally have sex with people of similar age (and we all have done 🙂) so it is not really about sexual self determination but rather avoiding predatory/manipolative behaviors of (much) older partners/lovers

I lived in Boston like 7 months during my studies. I was on a scholarship from a (not particularly rich) west European country… Can relate with the meme. On the positive side was just few nice hours of groundhog bus to NY 😂

To the part that they were bribed.

I think they are simply in the pipe dream that they will become the new LinkedIn

While I see what you are seeing, I think people will just move to the next startup.

Also by Occam’s razor, don’t explain with malice what you can explain with stupidity

Regev then told the crowd, “Part of the privilege of working in a company, which represents democratic values is giving the stage for different opinions.”

Followed by:

A Google spokesperson said the employee was fired

Do I miss any logical step or a managing director just said that Google doesn’t represent democratic values? 🤔🤔

Problem is the amount of money in the fine. The fine is up to 10% of the global turnover for the first time (that is relevant). But if they get 1% they may just try in keeping in playing chicken with the EU

I don’t think the EU will be fine with this because it would be a precedent for every other big company for all future regulations

Except if the severance package is BS and they don’t find enough volunteers (but hey! They tried!) and people get volunteered

Like what? They have servers in Switzerland, they seem competent.

Anything that is based in the US is not privacy friendly by law (at least for not-US citizens, see why US will never be an equivalent country for GDPR)

Anything that is implemented/maintained by incompetent is not privacy friendly by NSA/hackers/you name it

At least in Europe, passengers jets are new because more fuel efficient at the “normal” speed. These old jets are then transformed in cargo where they go very slow so fuel efficiency goes up by other means (and the old jet is way cheaper).

This was a passenger plane so i doubt it was anywhere close to 50 years old

This! Encrypt at rest with the key handed off to the provider every single time you login is just a PR stunt

Here we are talking of very debatable definitions of “making sense” tbh

That’s called science… You know the thing that you publish on scientific paper. Nothing to do with lobbying… You know… Giving “donations”
