I seem to remember Labour in the UK promising proportional representation in the 1990s, only to win a landslide in 1997 and never mention it again.

I've pulled Linux boot drives out of one machine to stick them in a very different machine (e.g. from a 6th gen Intel i7 with an AMD GPU to an AMD 5950X with an NVIDIA GPU) and they almost always just work or require only minor tweaks. Chances are it will be fine.

The fact that they don't go for any of the ways to manage access to porn that are more effective and less invasive of privacy suggests that the point is, as always, surveillance and not protecting children from porn.

He's arguing that the West should have been tougher on Putin sooner and the UK should have admitted more Ukrainian refugees. I don't see any clear sign of Russian influence here.

Good for him. I've never seen Jeremy Corbyn be anything other than decent and honest, and frank about his policies and why they are needed, even as he was treated terribly by the media. Hopefully he can be an effective voice in Parliament during this Labour government.

It's striking how these technologies do so little of use to ordinary people, yet they hog the world's energy and the media's attention.

Yes, everyone will die, but right-wing ideologues are not smart enough to look this far ahead.

It's not just lack of representation though. The UK is removing trans people's access to the healthcare that allows them to live a tolerable life.

So it wasn't an accident that they ran over the mother, and she wasn't the only one they tried to kill by running them over with a tank. We've heard this often enough now that it seems to be normal operating procedure for the IDF.

Those who only ever act out of greed and selfishness always believe these are the only reasons anyone could ever be motivated to act. The notion that people could work because they like it, or because it helps others, or because they would rather be active than inactive, is out of reach of their imaginations.

Germany is experiencing a rise in the far right too, though it hasn't yet gone as far as in France.

This seems to be the story in many countries right now, unfortunately, and fascism has been on the rise globally for years.
