them , to world in Russian troops raped and tortured children in Ukraine, U.N. panel says

Which part? The verdict or the rapings?

them , to world in A man opened an emergency exit and walked on a plane's wing. Passengers are supporting his action

What’s wrong with living in India?

them , to technology in European Union set to revise cookie law, admits cookie banners are annoying

I think enforcing some universal API for this would be a decent compromise. This would allow browsers to handle the UI which means the user can set a global preference or set it per site. At the very least the UI would be uniform so you wouldn’t have to fight dark patterns trying to disable them.

them , to fediverse in A new Type of Mastodon Signup that gives people a sense of Agency

In Rowling’s case it seems to be due to her being alive and directly benefiting from the financial success of her work. Pirating seems like a fair compromise. “I like what you make enough to consume it, but don’t like you enough to pay for it”

Maybe good creators are just horrible people

I don’t agree that this type of response is productive, there’s a lot more nuance to these arguments. It is however interesting which things we’re no longer allowed to like. Disney for example, despite their history of anti-Semitism don’t nearly get as much hate as they deserve and at a time where even suggesting something that Israel did to Gaza is bad becomes conflated with hating Jews

Thanks for the perspective. I’m not a member of the community (or much of a potter fan, other than enjoying the movies as a kid. Nostalgia) so it’s probably a lot easier for me to separate author from work.

It just concerned me that people would be unintentionally flagging themselves as an adversary. The generalisation also seemed unfair and alienating in the same way many marginalised groups are. I do understand though that one side is something you enjoy and the other is something you are.

Is it really? Can someone not just like the potter series and either disagree with or ignore the politics of the author?

them , to world in COP28 stage stormed by 12-year-old Indian activist

I’ve only just realised that with the way federation works, each user effectively represents their instance and it’s community. Now I know to not give anyone at fanaticus.social any attention.

them , to asklemmy in What were some good things humans achieved in 2023?

Is this a joke about every day being a 0-day?

them , to videos in What if we aimed the Hubble Telescope at Earth? - Minute Earth are working together with xkcd to animate "What If" questions!

Is focus to infinity that different for these types of scopes compared to a conventional camera which focuses to infinity after a couple hundred metres? I would have thought the draw back would be the focal lengths giving you a very small area in frame.

Because the genetics that build the vocal tract could be different, which in simple terms could mean a change in pitch. There are also more cultural differences such as speech cadence, accent, and inflection.

them , to android in Activision Blizzard had a plan — or ploy — to launch its own Android game store - The Verge

Unfortunately we can’t pick winners this way. Even if actiblizz come out on top it’s still a win for alternative stores so i’m happy with that outcome.

them , to technology in UK watchdog slams the brakes on Adobe’s $20 billion bid for Figma

More like 1-2 thousand. Our politicians are surprisingly cheap to bribe

them , to asklemmy in What is the weirdest/strangest thing you find comfort in?

I see your distant highway traffic and raise you the sound of a distant railway, especially at night

them , to games in Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition Arrives Next Month, Includes Phantom Liberty Expansion

It does safeguard to some extent. The goty editions will typically have all patches that didn’t exist on the launch version. This is usually an issue for offline play/preservation where the platform that would provide you with updates no longer exist.
