    Listen, not all nazi soldiers were particularly bad. I’m sure a chef in the rear guard probably did not do a single war crime. But when the SS existed we know that the chef isn’t what most people refer to when discussing war crimes of the era.

    Its the same in this era. Sure, there are bad guys all over the place, but compare to the US there’s really only a handful of entities in the post WWII era that could be equals, and none more evil.


  • Their profession obligated them to do something dangerous in exchange for money and financial security; this person does not receive that in exchange. Changing jobs is also not something you do lightly when you have kids, unless you’re already well off enough to retire or will be homeless anyway.

    Her family disapproves of her choice, that alone explains the situation as this adult acting as a petulant child that ran away. Her family wanted her in their lives, she didn’t want them in her life. That is the situation being reported on in this and other articles.

    There is no reasonable moral dilemma. For example, why the fuck didn’t she go off to Niger? Why not volunteer for myanmar’s resistance? Maybe be a un peace keeper in haiti? Shit you think ukraine is bad, why didn’t she volunteer for palestine and join any of the hundreds of resistance groups?

    There are hundreds of wars and conflicts going on right now. Is she going to go full mercenary and volunteer to be superwoman and intervene in all of them? Or did she pick a relatively safe conflict that would give her the most attention with the least amount of danger that would net her an easy path to leaving her family forever?




  • Every work from home person and every corporate end point will be upgrading; simply due to legal liability for the corporations. That alone is hundreds of millions of pcs and laptops getting thrown out (because anyone in IT knows no corpo is going to pay the extra hours to recycle properly).

    Average users with no liability? Plenty will stay on win 10 until their use case no longer works, i.e. when steam dropped win vista compatibility, but plenty will be scared enough to upgrade.

    The weird part will be seeing who sidegrades to a tablet in the corporate environment. Many android tablets can do everything needed for office work, and don’t have the same security cross section. Most app front ends are electron anyway these days so its not like x86 is needed.
