those other devices are largely irrelevant now in 2025, you'd need a study in 1960, 1970, 1980, etc. to disprove TV was just as bad. Having been alive back then, I can assure you some kids were big fat depressed couch potatoes glued to the tv, not playing outside

the land is very valuable, that's where Ukraine's resources are. Couple that with control of the sea front and Russia will get centuries of return on its "investment" (they don't care how many of their soldiers get killed)

The "exit strategy" is Russia controls a valuable chunk of Ukraine.

How do you imagine we could "end the war anytime we like"? Seems you're disconnected from reality and maybe ignorant of the subject of warfare.

Just as you live on land that was taken from someone else by killing, so it is with this. How mankind acts, sadly.

i notice your posts always follows his and have poorly worded run-on English sentences. It's as if a N. Korean were using machine translation, badly. Why don't you go out back and dig up a kimchi pot, and chill out with a meal, Kang-Dae?

kids who sat on their ass in front of the tv too long had worse health including significantly higher odds of depression, obesity, and poor sleep.

In 1990s joined by kids who sat on their ass with their home computer or game console

Pry your head out of the sand.

So you never heard say a "black leader" say racist things?

"White people are potential humans - they haven't evolved yet."

but Oracle has become buggy and with major behavior changes between minor versions, both in SQL and in configuration, an utter trainwreck my employer had to fight with 12C and beyond

Isn't Oracle's major involvement in AI just being cloud provider for place to run it? The actual AI companies would just move elsewhere, Oracle is 3% of that market.

yes, took 17 years and $12 billion (twice budgeted cost!)

So yes, we could do that, will take massive amount of money.

where were the parents? takes a long time to get to that state.

A child with mental issues left alone for a long period of time is definitely the fault of the parents.

The more relevant analogy to your nonsense 'raped' claim would be "the child became a rapist, getting with others to take a girl 'behind the bushes" at school as the black inner city kids say. that too is horrible lack of parenting.

Let me guess, you have no children. Or they are a mess.

I have shocking news for you, most minors wouldn't believe a stupid machine, sign or computer that advocated suicide. Where were the parents?

Courts of a bunch of failures at parenting are irrelevant, lawyers are scum and the worst get promoted to judge. Not admissible evidence.

Like a typical modern snowflake you shift blame from those responsible. This is why inner cities are hellholes.

ooo, 200 pounds more than my '64 super wildcat, 428 cubic inches of 360 hp big pp 8 mpg gasoline suck. A chevy nova once crossed the centerline and hit it, poor thing lost a third of its length. Had to buff out the scuff and put in new headlight bulb

the left-wing racism peaked twice under Obama and Biden; certain demographics made more random hate crimes on the streets, in buses and trains, in small businesses

Sure, the right wing flavor is bad too.

they're only 1% of global emissions, #16. Doesn't matter what they do. The top 10 are the big fish

you can do that now and find out the u.s. account at the time was nonsense. Go to wikipedia and see.
