Sometimes you need to call out media sensationalism. That barely was a slap. It definitely wasn't injurious, powerplay maybe, locally it may even be judged playful.
Western sensitivity doesn't always translate well globally.
All recent stupid SC stuff is because of 6-3 votes. These old fucks are seated for life.
Based if he dodged the Emu War.
Live in domestic help is extremely common all across India. They probably think they did nothing wrong as it wouldn't have raised any eyebrows in India.
TVP. Textured Vegetable Protein
That would have been a mature thing to do.
Well you can only do so much, and a denier will come and fuck everything up. Oil and coal companies will pay billions to keep the propaganda going - that the earth is just fine.
So tired of all that. Remember the CFC issue. World got together to fight it and it worked. I don't know if we will ever see such cooperation again. If we do, maybe we have a chance.
Other than a uniform collective action as a species we have no hope to turn this around. And since I don't see that happening anytime soon I would rather stick to my "Doomerism".
You missed the entire point. Typical Apple fanboy.
The iphone isn't at all important to humanity and that's why it should be regulated. Especially when something so unimportant gets such a large market dominance.
Anyone should be able to buy anything and expect things to be interoperable.

All fine and dandy. Kudos to Apple for the innovation! But then they decided to keep it strictly inside Apple.
That's not how communication works. Imagine if Bell kept the telephone to themselves... Oh wait... They tried... Got sued for it... Company broke up and the whole world got interoperable telephone system that is alive to this day.
Innovation is great, capitalizing on innovation is also great. But eventually it needs to reach everyone and the answer cannot be "then everyone should buy Apple".
Imagine if DARPA kept the Internet as "Americans only"
