Oh gotcha. Sorry I’m not the most familiar with the chess world.

I mean, easy fix there right? Just have a women’s tournament and an everybody tournament. Women can then choose which to enter.

Well it also could be because waymo is owned by Alphabet (Google’s parent company) and the side against ICE is also going to be generally against megacorps that are actively trying to sprint towards technofacism. But honestly I doubt that much thought went in to it. People are angry for a million different reasons in this country right now, and at a protest like this that is spontaneous (as opposed to organized/planned) that anger is bound to manifest in ways that aren’t always the most productive to the cause. That’s just human nature imo. Emotions aren’t always rational. And sure, it’s definitely possible this was an opportunist just looking for an excuse to be destructive, or even planted fed agitators like others have said, but if you ask me it’s just as likely it’s just some pissed off people who are just saying to themselves “fuck it, the government wants to fuck our shit up? Well then i guess we can fuck shit up too.”

Editing to add: It can be hard to put yourself in their shoes if you’ve never been to a protest that got a little ugly, because you might imagine yourself in the same state of mind you are in as you’re just like sitting at home or wherever reading this thread. But likely these fire starters have also already been tear gassed, shoved around by cops, corraled like animals, flashbanged, had rubber bullets shot at them, and all after watching fascist federal agents come in to their community and effectively dissappear people who are some of the most vulnerable among them. Maybe even close friends or family. It’s honestly surprising how many are still able to maintain their cool enough to be peaceful after suffering all of that.

Well they took them to Israel first but yea i agree

I’m not positive, but i believe the majority of their support team was in Paris so I’d guess that’s why. Apparently they were given a choice between deportation and a trial and some of them basically had to be convinced to choose deportation so they could speak about their experiences.

How do you prevent mosquitoes

This would be a hilarious thought to go viral. Like imagine so many people repeating that he doesn’t know how to ride a bike that it would get to the point that he would hold a special media conference just to prove otherwise. But in typical fashion, there would be something really weird about it that would still cast doubt over whether he actually could ride a bike or if it was somehow faked.

I mean, with virtualization that’s pretty much true

Which is crazy because like… you think they would have heard of linux before

Is this Zuck as a Navi?

Anything is possible at zombocom

It’s crazy, I’ve seen you comment something similar on multiple posts in this community and yet you’ve only posted one here and it was over a year ago. Quite the entitlement.

Yep exactly what I was trying to get at

No doubt, but imo “natural talent” is way less common than just people who have put in the work, at least for musicians in my experience. For every person i know that just started rippin shit from when they were 3 years old there’s like 20 more folks who have just put in the hours. I also think some people who seem to have that natural talent it’s more like they just were immersed in that environment from birth. Music is a lot like a language; you can always learn a new language as an adult but people that grow up speaking it because of their environment will make it look effortless.

Love this video and have forced it on many of my friends. It’s a straight up documentary and it’s so interesting to me.

Without really access we wouldn’t have Baldur’s Gate 3. It’s a system that can be abused, sure, but it’s one of the few tools available for indie devs to be able to make larger scale games on scales that can compete with the big guys.

People honk way less in America than most other countries I’ve been to

*Evergreens. Coniferous just refers to cone bearing plants. Not all conifers are evergreens.

Probably a reference to JFK Jr wanting the polio vaccine to be banned
