And they (Boeing) get a slap on the wrist and a waggled finger.

Israel is not a protectorate of the US but an independent and democratic country whose citizens are the ones who choose the government

Okay cool, can we stop supplying weapons and Intel now?

Vouching for PopOS, which has been my primary OS for years. The only thing I run a Win VM for is the old Forgotten Realms Interactive Atlas & Campaign Cartographer. I suppose I could tinker with Wine, but it tends to be finicky with the latter.

Constantly having issues

You’re going to see a lot of issues on Linux boards because people go to then for help. I’ve been running Linux since 2020 and though there have been hiccups, its been remarkably reliable. Having said that, when there ARE issues, it can take some digging to find answers.

Is it not stable

Moreso than Win 11, in my experience. I use Win 11 at work and I’ve needed a system wipe twice. Once because networking just… stopped… and once because appx apps decided not to load.

Ongoing issues

Plugging PopOS as a good “set and forget” distro that is easy to grasp. The workflow is very MacOS and the tweaks they’ve made make for a friendlier interface v Ubuntu, IMO.

Is this the same system they use to slow down basically everything at AMS? Like seriously, that’s the worst, dirtiest major international airport I’ve ever had the misfortune of having to use.

I’ve seen space vampires enslave circus clowns in a plot to corner the world’s market on instant ramen, too.

he was ordered by a judge to stay away from Washington and its museums and public monuments, prosecutors said.

Speaking of the Constitution, barring someone from an entire CITY seems to be rather outside of the spirit of the document itself.

I get that, I do. But having to issue physical copies is probably the most inconvenient and expensive option for the corps causing issues.

To be fair, the option is pretty easy to miss for someone who isn’t technical. Font size -11000 and grwy or whatever, though I might exaggerate.

Fair question!

If an email address is being used for fraud, they don’t need to see the encrypted copy; they can see the copy sent out to other people from that address. So if I send you a message from my Protonmail to your Gmail, the following is true:

Copy @ Protonmail: E2EE.
Copy @ Gmail: NOT E2EE.

There are other, circumstantial ways to tell as well. If you’re trying to scam people with DudeBro Cryptocurrency, you necessarily reveal the address you use when you send our your spam or scams. If I send malware from notactuallydiotima@proton.me, the proof that I sent the malware does not require you to see my server stored mail; you can just look at your own copy to see.

Does that make sense?

As we look at usage of that and the number of people that were redeeming those and using them, it was just not a feature that was available in Crunchyroll and isn’t in our roadmap.

I’ll translate corporate dickhead for those in need.

“We determined that the number of people who would be impacted would be low enough to avoid real blowback, so we decided to fuck those people in the Crunchyroll with a rusty Buster Sword because really, who cares what some anime nerd thinks anyway?”

Ideally, they would be forced to honor the “forever” promise in perpetuity. Alternately, forcing them to issue physical copies of equivalent quality to every impacted customer for every title they were to have “forever” access to would be reasonable. Plus, you know, a massive ‘acting like complete dicks’ penalty for trying to pull this nonsense.

I’d be interested in seeing the number of E2EE enabled accounts used for criminal activity versus the number of regular ol’ free Gmail, Yahoo, Outlook etc accounts. Governments absolutely have a hate-on for E2EE, so the police calling out these services specifically raises questions of motive.

Not that we should not be shutting down criminals… but this sort of framing tends to suggest that E2EE services are inherently criminal enabling, and that does not feel like a mistake.

I am 100% not taking that one for the team thanks.

Someone should tell Netanyahu that the list of human rights atrocities isn’t a fucking pokedex. You’re not supposed to collect them all.

You misspelled “terrorists.”

What happened: Israeli government began a campaign of ethnic cleansing.

What also happened: Terrorists, emboldened with the belief that they would not be punished, targeted innocent civilians for violence.

What finally happened: Nothing, authorities did fuckall because its exactly what they want to happen.

“No arrests were made.”

That’s because erasing Palestinians is the goal of the Israeli government. They will not be happy until all of the Palestinians have fled or are dead.

Sounds achingly familiar.

Back in the paper spam days, some folk would stuff the “postage paid” envelopes with junk and mail them back to troll the companies. Setting up a junk address with an autoresponder would be pleasing, but probably would get tagged illegal.

Realistically is more or less encoded “without ending the collusion between Democrats and Republicans.” As it stands, the system is designed to reinforce their duopolistic control… and their followers, more concerned with winning than with fundamental human rights, allow it to continue.
