I’d say not since Russia is trying to directly annex those portions of Ukraine. How is that a proxy?

Not exactly a proxy war when Russian troops are personally in Ukraine. That’s just a war.
People forgot how long it took the other world wars to really get rolling. (Presumably because they weren’t alive when it happened.)
I’m also of the opinion that unless something happens to de-escalate this conflict it will inevitably draw Europe, the US, and China in.
“Only FDA-approved substances will be allowed” (but we’re not going to do any testing so go wild!)
I mean, it might be as simple as “my alternative conservative candidate is no longer in the running”. It could take a lot of diving into the stats to figure out the actual cause and effect.
I think he’s likely an invertebrate, no bones required.
Brilliant! You could have an overarching storyline of brief dialogues interrupted by full games of Civilization.
Privacy is implied when you say “innocent until proven guilty”. Surveillance assumes the opposite.
If that’s truly the case, nothing on earth can protect your data.
That being said, large corporations are far more liable to consumer protection lawsuits, especially in areas like the EU.
AI does mean something, but it’s quite disappointing.
Even mundane algorithms like A* pathfinding are technically under the umbrella of Artificial Intelligence. However the public’s perception of what AI means constantly shifts to be “whatever computers can’t do today”.
AI isn’t a scam, but damn, most of the businesses surrounding it sure are.
The easiest way is a sitewide NoAI meta tag, since it’s the current standard. Researchers are much more likely to respect a common standard and extremely unlikely to respect a single user’s personal solution adding a link to their comments.
Plus even if you defederate them, oops, it’s all public anyway!
Of course it helps. Sure, the first election wouldn’t see much change, but RCV emboldens third parties to exist and would give them a viable path towards displacing the establishment. Right now there is NO path.
That’s not exactly true, the manufacturing quality of LEGO has gone down in recent years after moving much of the manufacturing to China. For example, you’ll find more parts with ejection marks in them today than you used to.
Ironically there are a few good Chinese knockoff brands with superior quality now.
That’s starting to not be true. Several of the brands out of China have better manufacturing quality than LEGO these days.
Studio Trigger has been their spiritual successor for a while now anyway.
It’s mostly Tesla and Twitter that he’s wrecking, but yeah Shotwell does sometimes rescue SpaceX from terrible ideas he has, like canceling Falcon Heavy.
No, that’s counterproductive because the government uses those services. Instead, the government could confiscate his stock in those companies.
Arguably access to technology should make it easier than ever to report crimes.
