"By 1952, there were an estimated 50,000 lobotomies conducted in the United States in Canada; according to a 2018 study, 75 percent of lobotomies as of 1942 were performed on women. Healthy women were lobotomized; sick women were lobotomized; disabled women, depressed women, anxious women, sexual women. Women were institutionalized because their husbands found them too opinionated or too independent or too assertive; they were lobotomized for everything from anxiety and depression to ulcerative colitis."

It is a time-honored tradition in software dev of giving a stupid or humorous name to projects. Beside being an important cultural artifact, it serves a useful purpose: it outs quickly time-wasters who complain about the name.

This is the ideal female body, you may not like it but this is what peak performance looks like.

#Zoom just changed their terms and conditions to include using anyone's video and audio for training #AI with no option for opting out. You too can help train #deepfake s!

Living with a disabled spouse, I used Zoom a lot to get through the ongoing global pandemic.

What alternatives are out there for remote teaching/meetings?

Some thoughts about Russia & WW3:

1. Russia will always come back to The West.

Why? Because The West is the only game in town, and it's the game Russia has played since at least the fall of the Soviet Union. Russian oligarchs send their kids to school in The West, they have vacation homes in The West, they keep their money in dollar bank accounts and have their investments in The West.

Russia doesn't have what it takes to go off on it's own, and trying to do so would end them up becoming a backwater like Iran. The only country who can seriously even consider a break with The West is China.

For Russia, the only possible move would be cozying up to China, and to do this would be a massive break from tradition. Russian top brass are decidedly NOT Chinese. They don't keep their money in Chinese bank accounts, they don't own Chinese real estate, they don't invest in Chinese companies. Like I said, they're Western.

It's not just a difficult transition, it is actually a BAD move. Russia has figured out how to influence politics in The West and is able to jokey for a seat at the table. The Chinese will be damned if they ever let a non-Chinese person influence Chinese politics. So cozying up to China is a one-way-street, China will gain power over Russia and that's it.

...wie schreibt man "Doppelmoral"? 🤔

EU mag: zensieren 😎👍
EU mag nicht: zensiert werden 😠👎

Ich hätte ne Idee: Wir setzen uns IMMER für Meinungs- & Pressefreiheit ein und IMMER gegen Zensur?!

Dann braucht man keine Doppelmoral - eine einfache Moral reicht dann... Wär auch glaubwürdiger. 😏

Did a web IQ test. I got status 200, which I'm guessing is OK.
