Neither does Brave unless you specifically opt in to those services. It’s open source, you can check for yourself.

Someone hasn’t ever bothered to read past headlines.

It’s a bell curve situation.

Those who are uniformed don’t have anything against Brave and would consider it a pretty decent browser.

Those aware of the controversies hate Brave and want it to die.

Those who have taken even a moment to dig into the actual “controversies” and read beyond hyperbolic headlines don’t have anything against Brave and would consider it a pretty decent browser.

He also created JavaScript, but I don’t see people getting upset and telling others to not use JavaScript.

…are you really asking why they would take out a military vessel with no defenses, no civilians at risk, far away from support, against a country they are actively fighting against?

Have you not heard the word “war” before?

I mean… The war is extremely illegal and is being carried out at the direction of some of the most evil people alive. But I don’t think “cowardly” fits here. If you are at war (ignoring the legality and morality of the war itself) and your enemy publicly reveals a location of one of their military assets, at a time and place where you know it will be defenseless and entirely devoid of civilians, is it really “cowardly” to attack it? If it’s “cowardly” because it was an ambush attack, may I remind you that essentially all warfare over the last century has been composed almost entirely of ambush attacks?

Again, the war itself is disgusting. People should be publicly hanged for this. But I really don’t see how the word “cowardly” fits into this particular attack.

Because, shockingly, Discords user base is not made up of people hyper focused on tech and decentralization and open source software. It’s mostly people who just want to play video games with their friends.

And if all your friends are hyper focused on tech and decentralization and open source software, they should have no problem switching!

If, on the other hand, you have friends who fall into the rest of the 99.9% of society, they will react like you suggested they replace all their meals with raw potatoes.

…is Steak n Shake considered a proper sit-down meal? Thats still fast food. Most of them have drive-thru’s.

Yea, Israel is pretty shitty and terrible. Still a country.

Even in that comment chain, it references that Jordan signed a peace treaty with them. So at one point they did, in fact, recognize it as a country.

They have a seat at the UN. They have passports recognized by every developed nation. They have treaties and engage in international trade with other nations. They fit every definition of a country. They are, in fact, a country.

Once again, just because you don’t like them and think they shouldn’t exist, doesn’t change their status as a country. I personally don’t like North Korea, but I don’t go around claiming it’s not a real country, because that would be a fucking stupid claim to make.

Well that’s just fucking stupid. The world has accepted Israel as a country for almost 80 years. You can hate them, you can say they never should have existed in the first place, but they are an actual country that actually exists. Even if they get completely wiped out and destroyed, every history book will still start out with “Israel was a country…”.

Pretending like they aren’t a country by putting quotes around their name comes across as extremely childish. Like a little kid who’s angry at their parents so they start calling them by their first name instead of “mom and dad”. Doesn’t matter how awful they are, doesn’t matter how much the child stomps their feet or what they say, it doesn’t even matter if they emancipate themselves later and legally change their name. Nothing will change the fact that they are the child’s, actual, literal parents.

If the author is really trying to pettily claim Israel isn’t a country by putting quotes around their name, then that’s just shitty journalism relying on personal emotions instead of unbiasedly presenting facts. And yes, I am aware that’s how most journalism is these days, but that doesn’t make it better.

through phone if you have a phone on your water account

To be fair, that should cover like 95% of people. Very rare these days to be able to set up a utility WITHOUT a phone number.

Because you didn’t explain the title.

I hate you.

If they are ethnically Russian and want to join Russia, then the solution is for them to move to Russia, NOT for Russia to just invade and take it.

Or wait, perhaps they don’t want to move to Russia because it’s a corruption filled shit hole of misery?

You don’t want the war to end as quickly as possible, you want Russia to gain territory as quickly as possible. Big difference.

Glad to help! It really is a lifesaver if you ever lose your insurance, I wish more people knew to use it.

DO NOT GET COBRA! That is NOT the fucking lesson! Look, just use healthcare.gov. it’s not perfect, but God damn it will get 90% of people affordable healthcare.
