Would this be the Starlink system Musk rushed to Ukraine and afaik continues to allow UKR to use free if charge? (I believe that some donor nations do pay sub fees for the systems they've purchased for Ukr, to be clear.)

Musk repeatedly said that he won't allow Starlink to be used to support offensive operations. Yes, sometimes free gifts come with strings attached.

Your insistence that because Musk doesn't do everything Ukraine wants without question, "we know where his sympathies lie" is childish.

Yes, I can see the argument that an offensive to retake Ukr territory should be allowed, but I can also see the argument that it is an offensive. Musk, a rather pacifistic person who routinely gets collywobbles when confirmed with violence as pacifists often do, probably sees it that way (and your own linked article mentioned that Biden military & intel people at the time thought Putin 's retaliatory threats were increasingly credible). My guess is that he was confronted with Russian threats to himself or his companies globally.

Would it be better if Starlink just entirely shut down all service to the region? Would that be better for Ukraine?
If that's not what you want, then maybe shut the fuck up?

What is happening to Ukraine is terrible. Ukraine's defense against a sociopathic neighbor has been heroic. That doesn't mean everyone, everywhere, 24/7 makes "what's best for Ukraine" their priority.

John Money was the first of the batshit legion (that I'm aware of; his entire oeuvre sickens me so pardon if I haven't delved too deeply) to believe gender was distinct from actual sex.

"My deeply flawed views" are the facts that stand unchanging, despite fads.
Humans are either xx or xy chromosomes, producing large or small gametes respectively.

The tiny percent that aren't that, are mutations that happened to survive, like people being born without eyes or legless or conjoined. None of them are to be brutalized, none of them are to be treated with anything but respect and sympathy; it doesn't make them normal except insofar as 'mutations' in heterosexual reproduction are normal.

Give up; your bullshit carried through the crazy-years of 2020-2024, but nature is healing. Fucked up ideological gaslighting is fading before things like actual facts. We're calling MAPs pedophiles again, and people are recognizing how wrong were the lies that fueled Mengele-like brutal transgender experiments on CHILDREN, ruining their fucking lives. You can't "undo" castration chemicals given to prepubescent teens. You can't just wear a girl-mask and insist you're a woman. If you believe that, you need help and counseling, not endorsement.

"even one time"

Unless you never use a password, in which case, you log in via all the other available options BUT password. You don't notice it missing. Passwords are so 1980s, get with the program.

I don't use biometrics because .. lets just say they are their own version of compromised. You cannot be compelled to give up your Password (legally) (hammer method is still valid) but a fingerprint, face ID etc that doesn't require you to speak can be compelled. I have no idea why people think it is "more secure" to use biometrics.

...which makes it super convenient when you can just use that label on everyone, right?

No it isn't. Neither a teeny little collection of actual hermaphrodites and genetic sports, nor male fetishplay justifies the rewriting of common sense.

Humans are divided into two sexes, except when something goes WRONG.

Your view is complete bullshit, an ideology-cloaked-in-"science" promulgated by John Money, a sadistic pedophile whose kinks ended up destroying at least one family with BOTH sons suiciding eventually from his "therapies" but hey, at least he took ample photos when he compelled them to play sex games with each other, right?

The populations lack of a grasp on reality is awful, but not surprising.

We just spent what, 4 years with every official agency, every mainstream media outlet, even MEDICAL professionals saying - nay, insisting - that putting on makeup or a dress could make a man literally a woman. That chopping off a child's genitals and replacing them with a simulacrum would do the same.

Don't blame chatgpt for the general public's lack of grasp on reality. That has been the product of carefully crafted propaganda.

Oh btw, every angry downvote just emphasizes my point.

Most devs at Amazon are probably not working on AI engines.

...24%

This might be GoatseGPT, don't click!

There are tools designed for such financial work that use idioms and formulas finance people know. These people outgrew Excel but don't want the usual frustration of converting.

Science is a system of checks and balances, but doing checks and balances has no glory, so too many skip that. It's like playing defense roles in sports, nobody gets laid playing defense.

1. Amazon orders own devs to use their AI tool Foo
2. Devs reluctantly follow orders
3. Foo usage goes up
4. Amazon brags about high Foo usage in ad
5. Suckers see ad, buy Foo
6. Profit!
