Hail, Caesar

I guess more accurately, Chagos as a culture is founded by slaves who worked the island and were freed. It was originally part of the Seychelles and then transferred to be considered part of Mauritius, and then sold to the British, and then leased to the Americans, but the Chagossian people have never really considered themselves part of Mauritius. Certainly more part of Mauritius than Britain, but still distinct as a culture, people, and language.

For the record, even the Guardians coverage of this is terrible.

1. They are handing control of Chagos over to Mauritius, not back to being an independent Chagossian state culture as it operated before. (Though arguing that it was technically part of Mauritius and illegally separated is the legal justification for returning it, so this was unavoidable given the path taken).

2. They did not consult widely with Chagossians, just the Mauritian government.

3. Part of ‘handing over’, includes a mandatory 99 year lease for the main island of Diego Garcia to the US for their military base.

It’s better than the UK controlling all of the Chagossian islands but it’s a far cry from justice.

What the honest fuck are you talking about?

No actually, in this case Meta just built a phone into a glasses form factor. The entire problem lies with that much data about individuals being allowed to be amassed (apparently even in publicly accessible databases).

You can literally do exactly this with your iPhone and a lanyard right now.

Yeah, cause trivial systems are a lot easier to parse and review. At a base level that’s nonsense logic.

No he didn’t. He literally pauses the show to see if everything’s ok. He’s an artist on stage with a million stage lights in his face and none of his crew or managers, or back stage people, or security, telling him that anything is happening.

Reddit just decided that it was the scary black rapper’s fault rather than LIVE NATION, the literal largest concert organizers in the world who were contractually and legally responsible for organizing the venue, security, crowd management, the emergency response plan, etc.

And guess what the court cases have shown? That Live Nation had exactly zero crowd management plan and didn’t stop the show when they should have.

You are literally just falling for the exact same pro business, blame someone other than the organizers, attitude that OP is posting about.

They’re dying from the heat and pressure of everyone around them, and from not being able to leave to cool down or get water or more space.

There was a previous article on this with more explanation that I’m struggling to find.

The gist was that they do hash all passwords stored, the problem was that there was a mistake made with the internal tool they use to do that hashing which led to the passwords inadvertently going into some log system.
