Correct.
Using Starlink, a civilian commercial service, for offensive drone strikes to kill people has never been allowed, nor should it be.
Starshield, a different system, is controlled by the US government. What they decide to do is up to them.
Ukraine military violated Starlink terms of service and used it for offensive drone strikes to kill people. That loophole was closed last week.
Starlink remains critical to the defense of Ukraine, as it is the only system that cannot be jammed or blown up, at least for now. Were Starlink to be turned off, the Ukrainian front line would collapse immediately. This is NOT a threat, it is simply a statement of fact.
Starlink was also crucial to preventing Russia from overrunning Ukraine in the early days of the war, as all other means of communication were destroyed or jammed by Russia.
SpaceX has done more to defend Ukraine than any private company on Earth BY FAR.
That said, I have nothing but UTTER CONTEMPT for the virtue-signaling evil warmongers who push for endless slaughter and offer no realistic solution to the conflict. May you burn in hell.
End of story.

Imagine how massive the propaganda must have been to convince young people that the one on the left “isn’t a child” and the one on the right “is a woman.”

Whoever came up with the pronouns bs deserves a punch in the face.
It’s the dumbest thing ever.

Zitron sounded less insane than usual in the debate with Soares et al. Probably because he knew that he couldn't get away with blatantly lying to the audience in that environment. This updates me further towards viewing him as a grifter as opposed to an idiot

The truth is complicated, difficult and not always flattering: but the truth is essential. Without the truth we can never improve ourselves or our societies.

Man, they really should make another isometric Fallout game.
Give it a smaller scope/budget and a passionate team and I think they could make something really special.

Larian admits to AI usage. E33 used AI. KCD2 allegedly used AI. Activision is using AI. Xbox is using AI. GTA 6 definitely is using AI. Indie studios with small teams probably use AI in some capacity. The chances your fav studio uses AI is extremely high, even if they don’t say it
Hell, the chances that VALVE is using AI to help with Deadlock and Half-Life 3 development is probably true
I’m genuinely curious what everyone’s move is going to be moving forward. Are you going to boycott all future games? Stop playing these current games that used it? Quit gaming all together?
I hate genAI as much as the next guy. I’m curious what the future actually will be for gaming as a hobby though

PSA: It's been over 12 hours since 3I/ATLAS reached perihelion. To the surprise of ABSOLUTELY NO ONE, no messages were beamed to Alpha Centauri. No abrupt sharp turns were made. No probes were dropped. Just another icy interstellar rock minding its own business.
Carry on, Earth. 🌍☄️☕

Just to be clear - given recent drivel on line - Comet 3I/Atlas is a comet, made of carbon dioxide and water ices and bits of other stuff. It is entirely natural in origin, its orbit is as expected and it will whizz around the sun and then disappear off into the galaxy again. If it ever encounters another inhabited solar system in the far future I hope the living things there are more sensible than us and enjoy it for what it is - a visitor from elsewhere in the galaxy - a pristine lump of rock and ices which formed around a distant, maybe long-dead star billions of years ago and many light years away, just passing through. Isn’t that wonderful enough?

Xbox could've easily raised the price of Game Pass by $1 or $2 and I don't think the drama would be that massive, some people would still be pissed but it would be understandable.
However they choose to go full greed mode, add some additional benefits which I'm sure most of the users couldn't care less about and raised it up by 50% which is horrible.
If Game Pass was already profitable and sustainable, why do this price increase?

This is the part where I, once again, beg you guys to start looking online and investigating/prosecuting the people calling openly for violence
So many people get radicalized by this rhetoric and end up doing something horrible

The other morning on our sunrise walk, we passed a table at the playground - one we always pass. It’s early, and sometimes someone experiencing homelessness is there, sleeping or sitting in silence.
This time, there was a box of donuts and a carton of strawberries left on the table.
No note. No fanfare. Just a quiet reminder that someone out there cared. That whoever found them was seen. Not forgotten.
It wasn’t done for praise. It was done out of love. And I know - somehow - I know it made a difference. Maybe it was the exact encouragement someone needed. A moment of hope.
These small, unseen acts… they feel like gentle rebellions against everything cruel or indifferent in the world.
This is why I love people. Why I feel deeply grateful to be human. Because someone, somewhere, decided to show up with kindness. No reason but love.
