For Americans, this process is called a trilogue. It is analogous to the White House a group of House and Senate members meeting in private to negotiate a bill, with most related documents being heavily redacted.
MEPs can pass the resulting deal or try to amend it. But amendments often mean the bill is pulled back into another trilogue rather than properly debated and rewritten in public.
The bill never gets debated, and the bill never gets rejected, so the commission can keep trying until it gets passed
I didn’t vote in the referendum and I’m fairly apathetic about Brexit. I wouldn’t dispute that there are downsides, but I do see the positive as no longer being part of an institution many British people consider deeply problematic.
-Commission’s monopoly on legislative initiative
-Technocratic “fast-tracking” of democracy via trilogues.
-cult-like mentality around ever-closer union making devolution unthinkable within the commission.
-Commission’s direct funding of media and its proposed expansion of the Media+ budget give it the ability to spend money directly promoting the narratives and priorities it wants to see amplified.
-Legislative attrition; passing legislation not through genuine consensus, but through persistence — re-proposing it until the Commission secures its preferred outcome. As we’re currently seeing with the chat control proposal
The way the EU has behaved in defense negotiations has further solidified my thoughts on this. Tying fishing rights to defense cooperation[0] then after the UK made concessions demanding billions with no say on how the money will be spent.
This is nothing new. Most legislation is passed via trilogues, where EU institutions debate and negotiate laws behind closed doors with little to no public scrutiny. Once trilogue negotiations are completed, the law is quickly rubber-stamped within a few weeks leaving little time for the public to interfere.
Ignorant investors check a box to put their money towards 'ethical' investments, leading companies to create DEI marketing departments to exploit the new investment pipeline.
I'm not sure I'd call it good reporting to investigate this case and not look into Doxbin.
There has been no evidence that Kiwifarms users have coordinated harassment towards keffals; however, the website that actually coordinated the harassment gets absolutely no mention.
When the reporter brings up the Uber hack, he's insinuating that this was done by Kiwifarms, but the receipts were actually posted on Doxbin. Doxbin also goes much much further than Kiwifarms, getting addresses,bank details, and employment history of anyone related to the target. They will work together to contact hotels and employers to get the information they want. Doxbin actually does act the way the media thinks that kiwifarms act.
I can understand Keffals not speaking about Doxbin as she legitimately fears them according to leaked messages to Destiny, but it's the media's responsibility to actually understand what's going on.
It's insane that people like Ben Collins constantly use Kiwifarms as a shield for Doxbin.
There seems to be a double standard with who can partake in intimidation campaigns.
Before any mention of keffals in Kiwifarms she was running a harassment campaign against Destiny, making false accusations that he was a rapist and rallying their followers to get him de-platformed on all platforms.
The worst situation is having one sided intimidation campaigns where trans activists can de-platform users like Destiny but they cannot defend themselves due to either losing remaining platforms or fear of losing their remaining platforms.
I very much doubt someone looking to get on with a normal life would gloat about supplying drugs to children without parental consent, lie about how officers treated them in jail on television, tweet they are hopeful a specific person gets swatted or parade around on social media when their harassment campaign gets users like Destiny banned from platforms.
I’d provide screenshots but documenting the escapades of public figures must be relegated to the memory hole these days.
If you want to learn about risk, modern XCOM is a bad choice. Modern XCOM lies to the player in order to make the player feel better
It gives a distorted view on how likely 60% really is since the percentage shown is not the same as the one used to calculate the hit or miss.
The game secretly changes the odds for sequential misses making hits more likely after misses. This teaches the player that the gambler's fallacy is not a fallacy at all.
With his "The push" show he either uses stooges or uses "mentalism" to turn people into murderers and risks giving the victims severe trauma and PTSD.
If the show is real the abuse carried out by Derren far surpasses the abuse of other cancelled shows like Jeremy Kyle. This is why I think its most likely the killers in this show are actors. If he's willing and able to use actors in this show its likely he has used them in others too.
Did you get many repeat customers?
I see the licence is limited to 3 machines instead of the user. Did this have the effect of getting customers to buy additional licences?
It would be interesting to know if people are willing to pay again so they can use software on multiple devices or if it is more likely to put people off buying the software.
