This is almost certainly nothing to do with gaming but rather with preventing China from building up their own chip industry and using US chips in things like AI applications.

It looks like it's all orchestrated by Iran. Hezbollah, under Iran control, Hamas and Yemeni rebels. Hamas shooting at Israel in a way that they clearly knew would necessitate a massive response. What I'm wondering is what they gain from this. Perhaps solidarity from other powers in the Middle East, causing hatred of Israel? I'm also wondering if this is all covering action for China to tie down the US while China attempts to take Taiwan. We might be living through what in the future textbooks will be under the heading of factors leading up to.
Fitting them with cameras makes it look like another profit protection measure.
I was nodding along till here. Wouldn't fitting employees with body cameras making it easier to prosecute the criminals? Lack of evidence is probably the issue in most cases.

If they were to apply to rejoin, as well as joining the Schengen and the euro, I'd want them to have a minimum 60% in favour in a referendum (not just in the polls). Something like a membership of the EU, a political project, requires strong public support.
If junior doctors are paid so badly wouldn't a better response to this be to quit and do something else or move to a different country? You help yourself and eventually the NHS has to realise that only paying a gazillion bureaucrats whilst having too few and too badly paid doctors isn't going to work out. To be fair this is already happening, many doctors have left and we have 22 month waiting times... Time is approaching where NHS, the huge bureaucratic behemoth, is dismantled and replaced with something better.
We really don't have disdain for the Americans. Most Americans I've met have been great.
Oh wow. After reading the announcement I'm glad they got defederated.
Never heard of Hexbear (kind of new around here). Why were they defederated? I'm actually on Lemmy World.

He wants to increase the threshold of where you start paying 40%. The title of this article makes it sound like it's 45% but it's not. Currently this threshold is at about £50k. So this would make the biggest difference to exactly the middle classes.
