Yes this totally all makes a genocide completely reasonable and acceptable. Genociding the local population, that's true justice innit?

I was friends with her and I trusted that she would handle it well if she wasn't interested. And turns out she indeed wasn't interested, but we did talk about it and decided to just stay friends. It was a little awkward as my feelings for her still lingered a bit, but eventually that passed and I'm now with a wonderful girl who I think is a much better match for me.

We're still friends to this day.

You'd be surprised how functional the illiterate can be.

America would have likely joined the war regardless of whether or not Japan had attacked.

Business also managed just fine before social media advertising was a thing.

It doesn't delete them from OneDrive, because they never get uploaded. If you max out the storage on OneDrive, then have a program write to that folder, it looks like everything is fine but OneDrive then deletes it once it notices no space is left.

It's anecdotal, but I've seen it do this myself.

Perhaps to clarify: OneDrive folders exist both locally and in the cloud. If OneDrive is full, programs can still write to the local folder (nothing OneDrive can do to prevent that) so they don't error or anything, but once OneDrive fails to upload the file just goes poof.

It should stop uploading new files, and visibly notify the user that their cloud storage is full.

It should not start silently deleting your data after you save something, especially because OneDrive likes to "replace" your Documents folder as it were.

Imagine you work really hard on some important document, save it, and then OneDrive lovingly deletes it for you with no way to get it back because you ran out of cloud storage. Instead of, you know, just keeping it stored on your local storage and telling you it can't upload it?

Because that's what it does now. Just deletes your stuff. OneDrive loses you more files than it saves. Terrible product and always the first thing I uninstall.

It's how elections aren't supposed to work, but it is how they work in the US. If you don't vote in favour of one candidate, it works out to a half-vote for the other candidate. It's the inevitable reality of a two-party system, which sucks ass, but it's still there and voters are still responsible for how they choose to deal with it.

Not voting for Harris means realising a Trump victory. It's just how it works in the US, and no amount of principled ideas can ignore the mathematical reality of the US electoral system.

Also, I don't buy into the idea that voters are powerless sheeple. Organize, protest, strike, options a' plenty. But Americans are apathetic and don't care enough to realise actual change. And it's clearly possible, given the track record of several leading human rights activists in the US. But it is hard, and people don't even bother trying something if it looks hard.

I blame the voters and Harris. The Harris campaign was bad, but voters don't get to escape the responsibility of the result that the mathematical reality of the US electoral system bestows on them.
