learningduck , to news in Niger soldiers announce coup on national TV

Only 4 coups since 1960? What a stable country.

My country experienced over a dozen coups already.

Mr_Blott ,

There are thousands of coups in Scotland

Oh come on! Your own country is being invaded and your people are dying! Is it so hard to not be corrupt for a moment?

korewa , to worldnews in Kevin Spacey cleared over all sexual assault charges

Can we get a new season of house of cards? I’d love a zombie corpse winning a presidency away from his wife.

xuxebiko , to world in Yemen: The children of a forgotten war

Their lives will be made worse if food prices rise or if there's a shortage (thinking of the Ukrainian food stocks Russia is destroying & preventing from being shipped)

:(

neonfire , to worldnews in Ghana parliament votes to abolish death penalty

Good, death is an escape from punishment. If you want someone to suffer for their crimes, keep them alive and miserable in jail. The only hell is the one we live in now.

SheeEttin ,

Yeah, but nobody should be sentenced to suffering. Rehabilitation and restitution, yes.

Ignacio ,

Rehabilitation and restitution

That's what the Spanish Constitution says in its article 25, and I agree.

neonfire ,

In general I agree, but the existence of the death penalty at all is not rehab or restitution, but to cause suffering. I don’t believe in eye for an eye, but if the goal is punishment, death is only an escape from punishment, whereas keeping them alive and in jail for as long as possible is to me way more of a punishment.

The documentary series mentioned in the article is well worth a watch

kayjay , to worldnews in Paris to bring back swimming in Seine after 100 years

Gonna need some RadAway.

MrSpArkle ,

Is the river radioactive?

fubo , to worldnews in Ghana minister Cecilia Abena Dapaah reported a robbery. Why was she arrested?

The Office of the Special Prosecutor, which deals with graft allegations against high-level officials, announced that it had arrested and was questioning Ms Dappah for “suspected corruption and corruption-related offences regarding large amounts of money and other valuable items reportedly stolen from her residence”.

Norgur , to worldnews in Unilever will let Russia employees be conscripted

The article does not say what they could do to prevent conscription, or if they can do anything in the first place.

Besides, them not pulling out is really not as consequential as it might seem. The Russian government has taken over many of the brands that have pulled out with the consequence that even more of the earnings of the factories in question go to the government. So, while I agree that them staying shows greed, it would not change shit if they left.

HughJanus , to technology in Intel's deepfake detector tested on real and fake videos

When we make this point to Ms Demir, she says that “verifying something as fake, versus ‘be careful, this may be fake’ is weighted differently”.

How is that useful? Are they unable to assign a confidence score?

itchy_lizard , to worldnews in Amsterdam bans cruise ships to limit visitors and curb pollution

Now do cars

Rednax ,

Parking in the city center of Amsterdam will cost you more than 60 euro for a full day. But if you park at the edge of the city, close to the highway exit and next to a metro station, it will cost you 1 euro.

While it is no outright ban, it is one of the various ways the city is pushing cars away from the center.

philluminati ,

The Netherlands is the most bike friendly country in the world.

darvocet , to worldnews in Amsterdam bans cruise ships to limit visitors and curb pollution

Lucky I just hit Amsterdam up on a Iceland/Norway cruise in June. It’s a beautiful city and port and will be missed. There are not too many cruise ports that are in the heart of the city.

briongloid , to technology in Netflix password crackdown has actually caused a growth in Subscriptions
@briongloid@aussie.zone avatar

And a growth in my friends using my server, let the public support unethical business practices, we’ll get fat off their content.

Too bad Netflix content isn’t good anymore, it’s concerning what the general public enjoy.
