Looked it up myself - they’re still counting votes but as of now 63.8% of voters supported it.

Article didn’t say - how much did it pass by?

The extended support updates aren’t available to end consumers but is a paid product for enterprises that need more time to update.

Cursed

The police literally have ‘courtesy cards’ they hand out to friends and family to avoid getting them ticketed - that’s a practice that absolutely needs to stop.

Yeah I’ll agree that on its own it’s not a good measure because of situations like this.

Because percent change uses the previous value in the denominator, which here was negative. (2.33- -0.5)/(-0.5) = about -5.66, or -566%. What number do you think would make more sense?

I switched jobs earlier this year for a 47℅ ‘raise’ - I’m absolutely loving my new role.

My understanding is that a potential sale of my previous employer fell through because I was basically the brains that developed / maintained the only innovative thing they had done in the past 15 years, and given their lack of investment in anything else there was nothing else of value for the buyer.

Other way around - the AI is writing a letter “from” the daughter to be sent to the athlete. Still BS though, and I’m sure famous people just love getting spam fan mail where the person couldn’t be bothered to draft it themself.

Maybe the Republicans should do the same thing then and have Trump stop running.

• He could be an Arab Israeli
• He could be ultra-orthodox
• He could have had a medical exemption
• He could have received Israeli citizenship later in his adult years after conscription.
• He may have served but in a role that isn’t committing human rights abuses (say working on missle defense)
• He may have served but his political views have since developed and he’s now pro-peace / anti-apartheid.

To generalize and assume that nearly all Israeli men are war criminals is to generalize on the basis of national origin which in most jurisdictions is rightfully assumed to be racist.

You can’t not serve someone because of their country - the hotel doesn’t know whether this man is a soldier or not, just that he’s Israeli.

Perfect article about exactly this situation.

Biden will lose against Trump. Changing candidates this late isn’t ideal but it’s better than guaranteed failure, and it’s better than after the convention if Biden deteroriates from where he’s currently at.

I hadn’t read this exact article but still commented because I’ve read about the same events in other publications.

I read somewhere that people who fork over money for a special visa to Saudis Arabia have access to air conditioned stations along the way. Most likely the Egyptians are doing it unofficially, which is likely easier to get away being in the general region already.

He’s a Florida resident though.

There may be a component that felons have to have finished their sentence which could exclude Trump.

Lol I’m neither Graeme Wood nor am I associated with Israel in any way. At the start of this conflict I was much more pro-Israel but it’s been clear that they don’t care one iota about minimizing civilian causalities (or worse, they do care but in the opposite direction). But being anti-Hamas doesn’t make you pro-Israel - sometimes there are conflicts where both armed sides absolutely suck and civilians are stuck in the middle, and this is one of them.
