I wonder how much this will impact the economy in Russia? It seems they're is not much point having a smart phone if all you are allowed to access is government controlled services.
Do the major phones get sold in Russia or are they all locally produced?
Your talking about their discretionary powers and that's not going to be relevant on a protest enforcement action where their senior officer in command will have laid out exactly what the criteria to arrest is.
Was it before or after Oracle acquired Sun that the fork happened? I'm fairly sure it was Oracle that passed the project across to Apache and I have no idea why the Apache foundation accepted it.
Heh I was one of the 12 people who actually brought a Falcon. Sadly I don't think I ever made the most of it. It took me years to get documentation on how to load code onto the DSP and by that point I got my first PC.
I run thousands of pieces of software and I have no idea what the political leanings of the developers are. Obviously I know about the main Lemmy developers because this seems to be a recurring topic here. However why would I start caring about these particular developers now?
There have been developers who have done shady things in their projects and it usually torpedoes the trust in the project and people fork and move away. However whatever I may think about the Lemmy developers politics I have no reason to believe they are doing nefarious things in their software.
I'm similar - and my kids even more so. As they only watch YouTube on the main TV it's a pain to get alternate frontends on it I also like the fact there are no ads. I think the creators get a bigger cut per premium view Vs ad views, especially if they get blocked.
I'm not surprised. My mum would tell me stories about dodging creepy old men on the train when going to school in the 50s. She seemed to accept it as just one of those things and I'm sitting there with my GenX sensibilities thinking yikes!
I would be curious if there have been any pen testing against the police and municipal camera networks in the UK. I wonder how many of the vulnerabilities of the system in the video come from trying to use WiFi to save on costs of hardwired setups.
We've had them for a long time. In the London the "ring of steel" was installed as a result of the IRAs mainland bombing campaign in the 80s and of course has expanded as the various congestion and clean air zones have been rolled out. I doubt it would be politically possible to remove them now. While potential leaks are an issue at least public sector organisations have some degree of accountability for the cock ups.
Great video and very illuminating about corporatised data surveillance. I wonder how these practices would fly in European or UK data environments. Big cities certainly have extensive CCTV coverage both law enforcement based and private but I'm not sure you could be selling personally identifying data like that.
I don't know why we couldn't have what we already have on mobile. My kids phones have isp enforced restrictions that prevent them stumbling onto most adult sites. At home I've got their devices fairly locked down but I'm fairly technical so know how it works. I don't know why households couldn't just have a setting with their ISP that allows them to opt in/out of blocking non-OSA compliment sites rather than doing a blanket censorship.
I get the reasoning behind the OSA - a lot of parents don't know how to protect their kids online and defer to the government to sort it out. However the implementation has been a giant flustercuck.
On the actual topic I know a number of people getting injection privately and swearing by the results. There is a pretty aggressive referral campaign as well which considering the monthly cost is going up you can see why people will sing it's praises.
OFC! I should have noticed the bumps and ear rings.
