In the line of duty, assaults and injuries and even deaths for police officers have been on the rise, and this is of grave concern to your police leaders

Citing American and other officials briefed on the operation, the New York Times reported Tuesday that Israel hid explosives inside a batch of pagers ordered from Taiwanese manufacturer Gold Apollo and destined for Hezbollah. A switch was embedded to detonate them remotely, it added.

Is there a law that covers indiscriminate killing?

The United Nations Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons (CCW or CCWC), concluded at Geneva on October 10, 1980, and entered into force in December 1983, seeks to prohibit or restrict the use of certain conventional weapons which are considered excessively injurious or whose effects are indiscriminate.

Yup, looks like a war crime to me.

Edit: On further thinking, do they know that none of the modified pagers made it into other markets? They likely changed hands more than once between installing the explosives and distributing them to Hezbollah members allowing for inventory 'shrinkage.' I'll bet this is going to end up like Project Eldest Son were exploding pagers show up for ages after they were meant to be set off.

Preface: I work with a hard core "they're going to make us eat crickets" kinda guy.

He was going on about how "how bad traffic is in the GTA and how they are trying to take away our cars so that no one drives any more." So I point out that if they added a bunch more Go Trains in the GTA you wouldn't need your car to commute AND there would be less traffic on the highway for the people who do drive.

But where are you going to park all those extra trains.

Bruh. There are how many million fucking cars that drive to the GTA and park every god damned day but you want to know where they are going to park 30 trains?

The Crown corporation says its anti-discrimination charter cannot 'supersede' job to deliver mail

Flyers ARE NOT MAIL.

Don't eat the rich, bleed them. Make greed unprofitable in Canada.

It kinda is, most of the people where I work (manufacturing) make significantly less than that. However, it's even more outrageous that a career leech can produce absolutely nothing for his entire life and get a $200K pension.

Uhhh, are they going to be paying the cammed employees more than uncammed?

Are there policies in place that ensure that footage will ONLY be used for safety and that the company will not use the cameras to police employees?

We've seen a growth in violence against police and peace officers in public spaces over the last number of years, and that's carried straight on through to private spaces...

Yes there is increasing violence against the 2 major sources of pain for the most desperate members of society, thanks for noticing.

Imagine opening your email or direct messages to find explicit messages about how someone is going to kill or rape you. Or, maybe it's a message threatening some form of blackmail - like releasing deepfaked nude photos - if you don't comply with the abuser's demands. Then imagine the police telling you there's not much they can do to help you, and even if they do, living with the fear and constant anxiety of knowing there's nothing much to stop the perpetrator from immediately beginning that pattern of harassment again. Then imagine this harassment escalating into physical violence or self-harm.

Now, imagine this happening to a minor.

Imagine a slope so slippery that god himself could not climb it.

I do agree that harassment online is an issue and has been since long before the first "I fucked your mom" was screeched into an xBox, but there needs to be extremely well defined situations where law enforcement are given access to information about ISP subscribers or users of a particular website.

Any kind of bulk-deanonymizing measures should be avoided at all costs as it undermines one of the most useful feature of the internet. If some one wants to find information on a sensitive topic, for example an embarrassing health issue or seeking help for abuse, not having a way to anonymously do so negates any help they obtain.

Ever since the "dark web" and "VPN" made it into the mainstream media it's been a ticking clock to the day when each government decides that anonymous communication is intolerable. "Think of the children" is the war cry of malicious politicians and useful idiots alike.

At least you made it all the way to the ground. Trees are hungry.

To be honest, I was expecting the AI to just predict deaths with some accuracy so that the deaths were no-longer "unexpected." I'm glad ML can be used for something other than 10 second clickbait and revenge-porn.

Yay, ageism!

TikTok users are pretty evenly spread from age 10 to 50.

But it’s not just wagons that aren’t allowed on the bus, I now realize. Anything that can seat more than one child is not allowed

Fire the prick who came up with that idea. A bus system that can only move people who are mobile is useless.
