People in glass houses..The same argument can be levelled at the troublesome activities engaged in by the USA.

> The bottleneck in the AI era is not production. It is discernment.

there's quite a few variants on the "its not X its Y" in this article that make me wonder how much of this waffle was written by a human


> I have nothing against Greggs.

I do. This man is benefitting from your custom: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-tyne-39443585


https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-65794363 The author John Green who was top of a recent list said that the Bible was number 6 on the list. As other comments have pointed out, a "ban" is where a library has chosen not to stock a book for reasons including response to a complaint. If school library serves children up to the age of 13, then certain explicit fiction is not appropriate and would be expected to be removed.


Maybe they were carrying out exodus 20:4...

It's ironic that netanyahu says that Christians are thriving in Israel and more than any other middle Eastern country. Only 2% of Israel identifies as Christian, whereas Lebanon has 37%, which Israel is bombing

I replaced the battery in mine. Unlike big tech, I believe in repairing old devices. Something Amazon have not considered is how many of these old devices are used as companion devices for other high end kindle owners. I have a scribe and old paperwhite and use them interchangably, with cloud sync of reading position etc, which won't be possible after 20 may.

1) nobody's landing on the moon this time

2) the article was an awful piece of hype, that felt like it was sponsored by the Whitehouse.

3) it's hard to see beyond the US imperialism that hangs heavy over space missions. Trump said "the US is winning in space" and he summed up the intent here

4) I might be a nerd but I really don't get the excitement from my fellow nerds. I wonder if they are simply taken in by the hype machine


Yeah the flag waving is very off putting. Why would non USians care? It's like the Superbowl.

More interesting is the possible Chinese moon landing. It would be their first and a good gauge to monitor their progress as a superpower.
