Just a smol with big opinions about AFVs and data science. The onlyfans link is a rickroll.

  • Protests erupt in US cities over Trump’s military intervention in Venezuela

  • A reference that's lost on me.

  • Jeeze yeah, clearly this wasn't good enough, I can't imagine why anyone bothered since clearly it doesn't matter. Didn't even care enough to print up pithy new signs or anything. Barely even pretending to care. Frankly how dare they, I'm just disgusted at their behavior!

    Are the majority Venezuelans actually happy trump just stole their president?

    Jump

  • Oh but didn't you hear that they were in the top 10 for GDP growth last year, so that means Maduro was actually doing super well??

    The narrative spin on this one is getting ridiculous, from all sides.

  • Trump keeps saying that, but since when do we believe what he says? Real talk the oil is a bonus but it's transparently a power consolidation and intimidation move - maduro had an apparently very successful talk with a chinese trade envoy earlier in the week, and that's most likely the reason. Trump can't risk China getting a foothold in Venezuela, especially one where china might move troops in to shore up their Venezuelan interests against US aggression. That would cockblock his strongman BS and make him look weak, and he can't have that.

  • Yeah, international pressure is absolutely not what's prevented Russia from doing this - they just flat out can't. Ukraine was also expecting Russia to try something like that because they'd had a bit of warning - Venezuela wasn't.

  • Venezuela’s interim leader defies Trump and calls Maduro the ‘only president’

    Jump

  • Yeah, why did we start thinking trump isn't lying just because his lies now align with our preconceptions?

    While it's not quite a lie (I'm sure it factors in), this occurred days after Maduro announced a very positive meeting with a Chinese trade envoy. It's very transparently a power consolidation thing, and the oil is just a convenient bonus.

  • I am actually quite surprised.

    Who knew stereotypes were often wrong.

    Edit:

    I get it sucks to be wrong about things on the internet, but this seems like a poor reaction to being shown that your preconceptions aren't accurate.

  • Mark Carney turns off geolocation on phone just in case

    Jump

  • Not... exactly.

    Baseband processors could hypothetically remain energized and pull a list of nearby base stations, but it's not possible for it to be transmitting without you knowing (the battery drain would be extremely obvious). I have also never heard of this happening, nor can I find an example of this being documented behavior, nor can I find an example of someone enabling this functionality while the device has been powered off.

    What can happen is something like the subversion of the power-off state to be simply an implementation of the OS's standby state - this is extremely difficult in any modern mobile OS (again I can't find examples of this being demonstrated without arbitrary code execution) but is the method rumored to be employed by the various security groups.

    If you're being targeted by a group on the level of (ex:) the mossad, having a phone at all is a liability, even if the battery has been removed. If you're not the target of a security group, turning off your phone is a great way of preserving your privacy.

    (Also, fun little side note, depending on your region leaving your phone at home won't do anything to prevent your location be tracked. Whee!)

  • Here's the photographer's Flickr account, you can see the protest was in fact quite well attended.

  • The label applied is more important than it should be. To that end I've been advocating claiming the term "pro trump" to describe antifa. Something like "Yeah I'm pro Trump. Pro Trump being in prison" or suchlike. Just throw them off their stride a bit or something, would be nice to see their bullshit social media manipulation used against them.

  • Under US law it's probably not illegal given the way trump has framed it, hence why they're not saying it was. It would be too easy to dismiss their criticism if they got such a basic technicality wrong. Side note but I don't know of a relevant international law or treaty preventing this situation either, prior to the orange jackass this wasn't something people considered a concern.

  • Huh, turns out if you look into what's happening it's actually a pretty large protest. Capital cops even broke out the protest barricades. Bit of a moot point of course, since trump (edit: and vance?) are at his resort right now, but it's still not a bad turnout for "people literally woke up that morning and found out they needed to protest later that day".

    Whoda thunk it.

    Even got some pretty nice looking signs printed out for it.

  • That line really resonated:

  • What's it going to take to truly stop the US?

    Jump

  • While the above poster is missing the particulars, this still is unprecedented - panama and the US were at war, and Noriega surrendered to US forces before being taken to the US. As far as I'm aware, brazen kidnapping like just happened with Maduro really is a new low for the US.

  • Senate to vote next week to block Trump’s military action against Venezuela

    Jump

  • The republican majority leader, the only who could call in the senate for a vote on this, openly supports trump doing this. They're not being lazy, the people who care enough to bring this bill are being blocked by the ones who don't.

  • Senate to vote next week to block Trump’s military action against Venezuela

    Jump

  • The Senate will vote next week on a bipartisan war powers resolution to block Trump from continuing military action against Venezuela.

    it is very explicitly to prevent further bullshit not gloss over what has already been done.

  • Venezuela's government accuses US of attacking civilian, military installations in multiple states

    Jump

  • Choosing not to spend my time explaining it to someone so insecure they accuse other people of botting them instead of accepting that they are posting an unpopular opinion is a reasonable choice on my part.

    This shit is important, and that energy is much better spent elsewhere. I have allies who deserve my time. You have gone to great pains to exclude yourself from that list, a choice you have made which I am respecting.

    I sincerely hope you have a nice day.
