You keep posting irrelevant nonsense about my supposed position on genocide. You are arguing in bad faith and making baseless assumptions. Islam and its regressive movements have been holding the majority of the Middle East hostage for decades without any Western intervention.
Again, I urge you to actually come live here and see for yourself what the hell you are supposed to be talking about.
Edit: in fact many people here, and the majority of Middle-Eastern non-profit human rights organisations have been trying to call for the EU and the US to stop supplying aid to the governments here and condition them on human rights restructuring and systemic changes. Happy to provide links.
Do we actually know? We might know that Crowdstrike was the cause but we don't actually know what went wrong and how it happened. It is an unfree proprietary closed source software, we just have to take their word for it, which for all purposes is PR in line with the fact that it is coming from a profit-driven organisation.
What are you on about, typical Islamist argument used by all theocratic movements and regimes to whatabout inherent systemic issues and steer the conversation away from the dangers of religious zealotry.
be me, average white nobody who is unaware of how things are in Islamic countries
I dare you to live in a Muslim country and actually be yourself or voice any normal nondegenerate opinion.
Kind regards,
A sand person who actually lives there
Nice concern trolling.
Pretty sure the Californian authority is not a copper DSL religious cult. If you actually read the article, the regulations they are citing are built for vulnerable communities to protect them from for-profit utility providers from cutting them off by shutting down old but only available way to provide internet to the people.
Wireless is not a fix-all solution, and can be unreliable and bandwidth limited for dense areas.
This message is sent to you by someone whose utility provider decided to do exactly what you wish and now is stuck with wireless towers that completely go down if there's any heightened usage (tourism, people moving in, and so on) or pretty much randomly (and since the infrastructure is not built yet, the company's nearest branch is nowhere near me), if you move too quickly, go to a room the tower doesn't properly reach (yes can be fixed, but now the burden of cost is on the person not the company), and many more issues that arise when 'wireless towers' are provided instead of actual internet cables that might be slower, older and more expensive for the provider but much more reliable, stable and actually working most of the time.
Right, because the only alternative to using spaghetti old code is making your own, not using one of the many actively maintained free software.
Among many others you'd easily find if you give up on the hivemind of taking the most popular approach.
From the producers of genocide, we present ecocide.
I am a person from an Arab and Muslim country. This logic is insane and downright dangerous. You don't know what you are getting yourself into. Read about it.
Smart phones and their consequences have been a disaster for the human race.
My Lemmy experience improved by a considerable amount once I blocked that instance, and I have been on here for a good while without blocking any instance. They really need to get their shit together.
Backporting security and bug fixes is a responsible and reasonable measure taken by any software that actually respects its users ESPECIALLY when a new breaking update is released. You failed at bullying a stranger with valid concerns. Try to bring reason with you next time before you decide to be rude and condescending.
economies of the world should justify a seizure of all their assets and dissolution of the State of Israel, with the land returned to arabs
Ah yes, the classic Israel 2.0 but with Arabs and Muslims this time.
See, this is why even though I am from an Arab country I don't jump quick into up-voting supporters of the basic human rights of Palestinians and Arabs. You are corrupting what should be about the rights and livelihoods of millions by wishing the same injustice happening to millions others instead of vanishing.
If you mean by "perfectly legal" a fair use claim, then could you please explain how a commercial for-profit company using the works, sometimes echoing verbatim results, is infringing on the copyrights in a fair use manner?
Absolutely worth the downvotes. It is a paragraph worth of nothing. Literally nothing of value or relevance added to the thread.
It does not matter, that's irrelevant to the lawsuit. Google is not being asked to tank its own software. It is only required to provide freedom and informed choice to users, overcoming the anticompetitive advantage it gives itself by not giving users the informed choice to pick their preferred applications store.
That's not avoiding it, that's playing straight into it. That's exactly the best case scenario they drew when they made the decision to block VPN connections. You are giving them your data and allowing them to fingerprint you.
Old reddit still works fine, but I suspect it won't soon enough.
an idiot that agrees with anyone speaking confidently for more than 5 seconds.
Isn't that the bread and butter of Fascists? It is pretty much the hallmark of a Fascist movement to have a "confident speaker" to wow the masses.
