lol. Just lol.
Edit: For those unaware.
“It’s also worth noting that plenty of Purism users have reported that they haven’t received the company’s previous Librem 5 phone, several years after ordering it. That phone first started shipping in 2020, while users report that Purism isn’t honoring refunds for these delayed orders or that the company is dragging its feet in this regard. So if it looks fishy and smells fishy, well, it must be a fish.”
They were lucky enough to have bought houses during the great recession.
Mystery solved.
That’s an incredibly myopic take that confuses correlation with causation.
These moves may benefit Putin, but Russia isn’t the only county to benefit. Infact, Russia is in a historically weak position to fill gaps left by a receding American empire.
I’d wager that China is likely to see much more geopolitical gains because they have the resources and capacity to take advantage of the situation.
I’m not saying Putin won’t benefit, just pointing out how limiting it is to view Trump through a singular lens.
I don’t understand the naysayers here.
This is hilarious. Trump wants to simultaneously expand the American empire, while he dismantles the tools of it that he’s too stupid to understand the importance of.
No matter their mission statement, or any tangible benefits they might have provided, both USAID and VOA, were tools of empire. These aren’t mutually exclusive concepts.
We’re already at least one generation into womb to tomb data collection.
Nah, it looks great to me.
Just yesterday I was watching TV and noticed that it just couldn’t fill that void inside of me, like it usually does, and then I realized that I was experiencing an acute AI deficit.
Don’t worry, I sparked up a quick ChatGPT session to get my AI immersion levels back up, but it sure would have been nice if I could watch TV and meet my body’s AI needs, through a single pane of glass.
Unless it’s for SMTP only, it’s probably a back end sever to some other front facing box, or service, that has IP addresses whitelisted for email.
I’m pretty sure I read one of his comments elsewhere talking about tunneling everything over SSH, so I assume that’s what he meant, but I could be mistaken.
Regardless, using an EOL distro as an internet facing SSH server that’s 8 years behind on SSH updates, is probably a bad idea.
We’re not talking about some punch card COBOL machine he jimmy rigged with network access, it’s an old Debian Linux box with SSH enabled.
It’s not like Metasploit would have a tough time finding unpatched vulnerabilities for it…
Because of Russia’s vast geography and relatively limited waterway access, it’s better to think of their different fleets almost as individual smaller navies.
Especially in the context of the Black Sea fleet and Turkey’s ability to restrict access of military vessels through Bosporus and Dardanelles Straits because of the Montreux Convention.
So to answer your question under that more narrow scope, I believe it’s roughly 20% of the Black Sea fleet has been destroyed.
That becomes moot when it’s war, and the coverage in question is about the internal political situation of the people they are currently fighting. The same applies to any country at war, and their domestic press coverage of their opposing force, or country.
Does this mean I should use AJ to source credible information on internal Israeli politics? How about Russia Today for reporting on Ukrainian morale?
Seriously, stop posting wartime propaganda and pretending it’s credible journalism.
I don’t know, I feel it brings something…a bit of good cheer and comic relief, which is always needed when discussing…checks notes… Ah yes, colonial settler violence, indigenous displacement, and ethnic cleansing.
The judge was the literal child of Uganda. Because she displeased his parents (Uganda), they disowned her. They even disinvited her from all upcoming family birthday parties and witch burnings.
Or maybe they meant distanced,* like it says in article. I don’t know, pick whichever version of events you prefer, that’s what I always do.
- Uganda distanced itself Friday from Julia Sebutinde…
Seeing as these all flow down from my original response, I’m pretty sure it’s you who doesn’t understand the context of the conversation.
Also, the torture in question wasn’t the execution method. So again, I suggest you re-read the comment thread.
The decades are a function of the appeals processes; some mandatory, and others initiated by inmates.
I’m not sure fast tracking the process would be an improvement…
You realize that my questions were rhetorical, right?
Re-read the comment chain, maybe you meant to reply to someone else?
So if I’m sentenced to 20 years for first degree murder, is the fear and terror I feel over losing my freedom the state torturing me?
What about if my doctor’s office refuses to give me my diagnosis over the phone on a Friday, and tells me I have to wait for an office appointment on Monday. Is that torture? Should I file a legal complaint or try to get charges pressed?
You’re conflating internal agony and anticipatory fear, with actual externally applied methods of torture.
I understand what point you’re trying to make, but words have meaning and if everything is torture, then how bad can torture really be?
I always chuckle whenever I hear people earnestly recommend Pine Phone, or Librem, to other users as daily drivers.
Tinker? Sure, absolutely. But daily use? lol, no.
I look forward to someday daily driving a purpose built Linux phone, but that day isn’t here, yet.
Until then, deal with Graphene, or get an Android that supports pmOS. Just understand the real security implications and risks associated with the later.
