After Meta scraped all their books they have the perfect defense now. All they have to say is “we’re training a music AI” and they’re apparently untouchable.

I have reported the post a) for misinformation b) for being from a source so unreliable Wikipedia has banned it c) from a source that is racist and supported the literal 20th century German Nazi party

I included your Guardian link as evidence of the misinformation

The upvote/downvote ratio is beyond recovery now so I encourage others to do the same.

They have a broadcast licence. I expect them to be held to the standard required to maintain that licence or have it revoked.

It doesn’t say refuse work. It says refuse the concept that a person’s worth is linked to how much or what type of work they perform.

Worth as in human worth, not monetary value. Social standing, respect, etc

More farmers need to wake the fuck up and reject current capitalist, agrochemical, maximum yield farming or they’ll end up with nothing.

Drought and soil degradation have been known about for years, this is their job, they have no excuse for being ignorant.

Free at the point of service was a founding principle for a reason. A levy doesnt fix the root cause of the issue, and produces a myriad of other problems.

“Sense have a wide range of stakeholders including the wider public to consider when safeguarding the Sense brand reputation and hold and be seen to hold a neutral position,” the outcome notice said.

How’s this sacking doing for their brand reputation?

Will the people who did the sacking be sacked for also damaging the brand’s reputation? Y’know, for neutrality.

At 4,961,538,207 shares of National Grid PLC available on the London Stock Exchange, and their latest half-year dividend payout of 16.35p per share, that would be £811,211,497. Or £811 million in easier terms.

Their previous full year dividend was 30.88p per share, or £1,532,122,998. Or £1.5 billion.

It fluctuates each year.

Also bare in mind each individual energy provider which also profits from infrastructure investment.

Also also bare in mind that both National Grid and the energy providers are usually multinationals with shares in more than one stock exchange.

Because it’s clutter and annoying to see “Heyyy, is jellyfin a good video app?” ad nauseam, when a simple search would answer their question faster and without wasting everyone’s time and energy.

Modlogs are visible, if there’s truly a censorship issue then we’re free to upsticks and move to another community. That’s the advantage of the Fediverse.

What could you possibly be referring to, there’s no way Reform are disappearing vulnerable young children in the council which they control. No way at all…

Speaking on climate, Kevin Anderson, professor of energy and climate change at the Universities of Manchester, Uppsala and Bergen, said: “The choice is between deep, rapid and fair decarbonisation of modern society, and an organised-ish technical and social revolution; or ongoing rhetoric and delay as temperatures [rise]. And then we’ll have a revolutionary style change that will be both chaotic and violent.”

On nature, Nathalie Seddon, professor of biodiversity at the University of Oxford, said: “We are facing a national emergency not only because the climate is changing, but because the living systems that protect the climate are breaking down.”

She added: “This isn’t about choosing between the economy and the environment. It’s about recognising that the economy is embedded within the environment, and that the health of the nation depends on the living systems that sustain us.”

And yet, despite this, we still get “Drill, baby, drill!” in our budget.

But The Economist just told me this is a left wing government from a left wing party!

I’m confused, why would they capitulate to business interests if they’re so left wing?

Asked if Farage therefore believed those who made the allegations were inventing them, the spokesperson said: “I’m saying there is no primary evidence. It’s one person’s word against another.”

It’s 20 people’s words against one, you snake oil salesman fascist. Along with a letter from 1981 stating he was racist and fascist.

Yes. Violence is justified if it prevents greater harm or in self defence.

Do you support WW2 veterans? They perpetrated huge amounts of violence, to prevent the Nazis performing greater harm.

Violence is sometimes justified.

We haven’t seen the evidence, I’m willing to concede if the video shows unjust use of force. But they haven’t released the evidence to us yet, and in my eyes seem to have put a huge deal of spin doctoring on this story to illicit an emotional rather than rational response.

At the moment, without the evidence ourselves, cops bash people’s heads in every day, who cares if the reverse is done to them whilst trying to stop the machinery of war and genocide?

Aye, I understand my disdain of policing isn’t the norm. I’m not even completely against having a police force, but there is a severe lack of accountability and consequences for the current police in their many unjust, often illegal, actions.

I think the only constructive thing left to say, without seeing the evidence ourselves, is two things.

One) is to note this article is written almost entirely from the state’s perspective which illicits an automatic sense of right and sympathy in readers.

Two) is to reiterate that we have, as a society, no qualms about the thought of people being smashed over the head with a police baton, but when the reverse happens it’s viewed as barbaric.

If the video is released we can judge for ourselves, but at the moment, I’m firmly in the camp of “they do it to us regularly, in the name of preventing genocide why can’t we do it back?”

If video evidence proves otherwise, fair enough. But they’ve not released it and seem to be making a huge deal of the term sledgehammer when it could be any blunt force instrument.
