  • Photoshop Terms of Service grants Adobe access to user projects for ‘content moderation’ and other purposes

    Jump

  • At this rate my owned outright copy of Adobe that requires no internet access, with hacks, will become a generational heirloom I can pass down to descendants with immersurable value.

  • Russia issues stark US statement as relations hit new low, declares US 'an enemy' state for first time

    Jump

  • The US is on record interfering in elections for almost all countries it can. Including "friendly" countries and allies. So no.

  • As China’s internet disappears, ‘we lose parts of our collective memory’

    Jump

  • This is a global issue. Not a China issue. If anything, China has every page cached and stored if they ever wanted to restore access. The US does too, but only secretly.

  • Boeing Starliner launches for the first time carrying NASA astronauts to the ISS

    Jump

  • Hasn't had an uncontrolled boom yet. Only controlled booms so far.

  • Any LinkedIn alternatives?

    Jump

  • Yup, had them lock an account before. Never gave them my info. Had to start a new account and actively work around their fraud protections with fingerprinting. And eventually reconnect. Pain in the butt.

    You have zero recourse and no appeal process. Even uploading an ID doesn't guarantee anything.

  • John Kirby likens Israeli airstrike that killed civilians to US bombings in Iraq, Afghanistan: ‘We did the same thing’

    Jump

  • I mean... Yes. Exactly. But the solution is to convict all of them, not allow it to happen. That's what the international community has been asking for for decades.

  • Private Equity–Backed Firm Bowlero Is Ruining Bowling

    Jump

  • But you will, because the rest will close eventually. It's a long game. The mom and pops won't survive forever.

  • Negative media coverage of China reinforces and contributes to widespread negative views about China in the UK

    Jump

  • But but but, China bad boogie man! They can't possibly do anything good.

  • tiny desk shelves

    Jump

  • Need banana for scale.

    What's their intended holding purpose?

  • US-built pier will be removed from Gaza coast and repaired after damage from rough seas

    Jump

  • And then,

    Military: If you love your country and freedom from Poseidon, we require $10B to study the affects of these "waves" on modern equipment and soldier moral.

    Congress: oh my god! Here's $20B. We luv you so much, uwu

  • Greater Idaho movement: 13 counties in eastern Oregon have voted to secede and join Idaho

    Jump

  • While true, this is true in basically every area in the USA. If you have a tractor supply store near your house, you're in redneck territory. If you have a Lululemon, you're in blue territory.

  • Ireland to recognise Palestinian state

    Jump

  • There's a fair bit of work. The biggest obstacle is all the random form entries that need to be modified. It's not like it's a single central table, it's the same table copy and pasted a million times. Then for most countries you'd need to add recognition of their passports, their national ID's, update legislation on whether nationals of that state are afforded certain protections or not certain visa requirements or not, etc. It truly can take years.

    In most cases one country becomes two or two become one. In the first case everyone can use the old country on forms and the old country's rules apply to everyone until changed. In the second case you can use the country your passport was issued from or both or whatever. But there is less of a change.

    For Palestine, it's just poofing into existence. They don't get passports. They don't have any existing relations. So I imagine this announcement will take a while to be formalized fully but there will be some interim order that basically says what you need to do manually if you encounter a Palestinian and your automated systems can't process it.

  • Blinken willing to work with Congress on potential sanctions against ICC

    Jump

  • It's almost like the US is the bad guys... The world is waking up.

  • More than half the world cannot speak freely, report finds

    Jump

  • Pretty much nobody in the world can speak truly freely except in like the anarchist areas of Somalia.

    Otherwise there are limits. Even in the USA. There are literal criminal laws on the books in the US for speaking against Israel in any way, bolstered recently. This isn't a "yelling fire in a movie theater" type of restricted speech that most everyone can agree on. This is just straight up censorship. And it exists for many subjects.

    You can criticise the prez, but you can't threaten. You must acknowledge certain objectionable truths as hard fact, or else be against the law.

    When a study says "I am free and everyone who doesn't behave just like me isn't free", it doesn't take a genius to realize that's idiotic.

    A restriction on free speech that bans misinformation in the news for example is wonderful. Many countries have this. It is considered anti-free speech for the US where money wins.

  • New Windows AI feature records everything you’ve done on your PC

    Jump

  • I have no problem paying for software at this point in my life. But I won't pay for a subscription. And if I pay oodles of money, I'd hope Microsoft would opt me out of all the crap they hope to make money on with an install base like ads and inevitably copilot data sales.

  • New Windows AI feature records everything you’ve done on your PC

    Jump

  • That's your corporate overlords screwing up your system. Not Daddy Gates. Yet.

    Enterprise is something almost no standard corporate drone uses. The benefits are really for nerds and IT people. But it is a requirement for Xeon processors, and most of my machines are Xeon including my laptop.

  • Would you support a mandatory retirement age of 75 for US House, US Senate & US Supreme Court Justices and if not why?

    Jump

  • And you're ignorant. Go learn how a parliamentary democracy works. And how every functioning democracy in the world, uses it. Then reevaluate your idiocy.

  • New Windows AI feature records everything you’ve done on your PC

    Jump

  • I have never encountered a user oriented Linux experience that is more hands-off that Windows this decade.

    My embedded Linux systems, sure. The Linux backends in a closed system, sure. But something that is interacted with, not a chance. People love to hate Microsoft but there is a reason why they have the install base they do.

  • U.S. governors urge Turks and Caicos to release Americans as Florida woman becomes 5th tourist arrested for ammo in luggage

  • Just like Iran, these issues are caused by the US and economic warfare, ie sanctions. Learn about how your country enables Genocide all over the world before replying again.
