mosiacmango, (edited ) to world in Malaysia plans 'orangutan diplomacy' to boost palm oil sales

Fucked up, but literaly true.

Europeans pushed the whole world to the edge, and now if anyone else does the same thing we all topple over.

Known as the “merdes touch.”

mosiacmango, to politics in Transgender bathroom bills are back, gaining traction after past boycotts

Yeah, it’s just a way to legitimize attacking and arresting trans people for living their lives openly.

mosiacmango, to opensource in TIL: FairCode is the software model Redis, ElasticSearch, etc. use

How much profit is Redis or Hashicorp kicking back to the people the contributed to it when it was FOSS? It’s just “Fair code” now to allow its “creators” to profit, right?

mosiacmango, (edited ) to science in Boeing is getting ready to send astronauts into space with their latest capsule

He didnt found paypal, his company was merged with another one that became paypal. He was the CEO of PayPal early on, but was so universally disliked he was booted after 6 months.

He then took his Paypal money and did invest it in a fledgling startup named Tesla that had a working prototype of an electric sports car based on a Lotus frame. He later sued the actual founders so that he could claim he was a founder.

SpaceX is there because he had money to fund it and to entice Gwynne Shotwell, a renowed name in aeronautics, to his new space startup. Shes run it the entire time.

Musk is a “money guy” who lies a lot and has had some lucky hires. Hes a pitch man who has lived his entire life with a silver spoon in his mouth, which makes it easy to gamble on high risk projects.

Dont buy the hype hes selling.

mosiacmango, to games in Helldivers 2 now delisted in 177 countries

Adding all those helldiver’s players into the “Sony account to PlayStation now subscription service” sales funnel is the financial goal here, likely along with selling any data they collect about you to any bidder.

This does make Sony money, but it likely doesn’t make them more than an indie becoming the 7th most successful game this year, but here we are anyway.

mosiacmango, to politics in Kristi Noem’s VP chances appear as dead as the dog she killed. There are other reasons too.

Honestly, probably second only to Regan in pure destructive effect, and part of that is because Clinton got caught with Monica, derailing Newts negotiations with Clinton to privatize social security. These talks were apparently pretty far along at the time.

Monica Lewinsky, besides being an absolute champion and a power house public speaker about what shame can does to people, also inadvertently saved social security.

He was on the news a lot during his time in congress. Just pick any clip at random and you’ll see this lying face.

mosiacmango, to startrek in Star dates – is one day equal to 0,07 SD in TNG?

Stardates should be a standard calendar at least amongst themselves.

mosiacmango, to politics in DEA to reclass marijuana to Schedule III

And that number was just the cases voluntarily reported or with legal cases that the AP could find.

Since we have literally zero reporting requirements at a federal level for police departments, it could be 10-100x as many deaths.

mosiacmango, to politics in Kristi Noem doubles down on dog-killing to win over MAGA — here's why her story is backfiring

Apparently the story was known locally in south dakota political circles, so there is conjecture this is her trying to get out ahead of it if she was nominated.

mosiacmango, (edited ) to politics in Retired pro wrestler, failed congressional candidate indicted in Vegas murder case

Thr article leaves out the detail, but this is the guy who charged into a bathroom and threatened to kill Tapp at a halloween party after someone told him he offered his step daughter drugs. The party was hosted by an F1 driver apprently, but that may be speculation.

There was then a bang and a scuffle sound. Rodimer apprently slammed Tapps head into a table and was chocking him out until his wife intervened. After that, the murderer left. Tapp was then laid out on a bed for hours with party goers tending to him, including Rodimers wife. Someone finally called the paramedics, and he died in the following days.

Rodimers wife texted rodimer that night that no one should have to witness their husband kill a man in front of them and then filed for divorce soon afterwards.

Here is an article with more detail.

mosiacmango, to politics in Arizona state House passes a bill to repeal 1864 abortion ban

There will be an abortion amendment initiative on the Arizona ballot.

The abortion access measure needs about 384,000 valid signatures from Arizona voters by 3 July to make the ballot and has reported collecting more than 500,000 so far. But the state applies strict scrutiny to citizens’ initiatives, with intense requirements for each signature and the people collecting them. In recent years, groups have sued, at times successfully, to remove signatures for various reasons in attempts to keep measures from reaching the ballot.

“We know the Republicans in the next three months are going to do everything in their power to try to take that initiative off the ballot,” the former Democratic lawmaker and congressional candidate Raquel Terán said at an abortion rights rally last Friday. “So we should not count on just half a million – we need to turn in a million signatures or more. Do not stop. We cannot stop, nor take any signature for granted.”

The issue is alive and well, this is just a tiny positive that reiterates the point that a sweeping change is needed to prevent further fuckery.
