    Thats least of her worries. She will get added to the DHS list and will get promptly departed by the HitlerPig and Muskrat.

    Accidentally misplaced.

    See it's almost whimsical. Not scary at all.

    Eyes front and center folks - wouldn't want to make them think you're thinking. Only terrorists would be thinking.

      What's the solution to lasting peace? Restore rule to the Ottomans or British?

      Maybe give the decision to the people who resided in this land before the Ottomans or British put the intentionally divisive borders that they'd come up with?

        A Microsoft employee disrupted the company’s 50th anniversary event to protest its use of AI.

        “Shame on you,” said Microsoft employee Ibtihal Aboussad, speaking directly to Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman. “You are a war profiteer. Stop using AI for genocide. Stop using AI for genocide in our region. You have blood on your hands. All of Microsoft has blood on its hands. How dare you all celebrate when Microsoft is killing children. Shame on you all.”

        Sources at Microsoft tell The Verge that shortly after Aboussad was ushered out of Microsoft’s event, she sent an email to a number of email distribution lists that contain hundreds or thousands of Microsoft employees. Here is Aboussad’s email in full:

        Thank you, Lemmy. I can't find this on the technology subreddit. Reddit Is complacent.

            You need peace / security, a modicum of prosperity, and education / information from independent news.

            Basically both Israel and Palestine are fucked.

                I'm very confused. Can somebody explain how any of that makes any sense?

                What....are you'd confused about, specifically? It's pretty thoroughly explained.

                    Yeah, I'm honestly surprised she was allowed to login to a msft computer again.

                        TL;DR: she works on the speech to text AI product on Azure, which is used by Israel for some of their operations.

                        Look, I understand her desire to stop fighting in Palestine, but by that logic, we should also be protesting every software and computer manufacturer.

                                      They are giving it away for free, which according to you is morally better than selling it?

                                        By that logic, if it’s not practical to protest every single injustice in the world, we just shouldn’t bother.

                                        I’d say genocide is a good place to start, wouldn’t you?
