Man, imagine the paranoia. You literally have a russian puppet for president, but are worried about infiltrations by communist spies from Cuba.

I imagined the law would be enforced by a deal with google and some global android state approved keylogger/backdoor completely bypassing all apps including Signal. But yeah, I’m having trouble wrapping my brain around this.

I don’t understand how this “threat” is supposed to work. If the law passes won’t any and all chat encryption be affected? In that case it doesn’t matter how you get the app, or if you manage to get it in europe. Its encryption will be broken/unavailable.

Time to fire up Anno 2205

Does anybody have the original study? I tried to find it but the link is dead ( looks like NANDA pulled it )

This reads just like the news we had of antiwar protesters in russia a few years ago. Except you know, it’s the uk this time.

Even if they wanted to bank on the adblocker thing I imagine they can’t because they have to stay in Google’s good graces. Like 90% of their revenue was google money, and has been for years now.

At this point I’d honestly even pay for a privacy focused mozilla browser that is clean of all this crap, just to keep them afloat, but fat chance of that happening.

Yeah, the german lemmy went nuts with it last year. It was beautiful. Just search for Stör

Can’t wait for that LLM to become a reddit-hating bloodthirsty linux obsessed furry femboy communist tankie with a weird fondness for beans, star trek and sturgeon

Like they got somethin to say

Apologies if I misunderstood the american election system, but the fact that for the past 100+ years you’ve had a bipartisan system in which both parties pander to the wealthy tell me it hasn’t really worked. Or rather only worked for the ruling elite.

Finally, a sane fuckin approach to the tarriff madness. But it’s probably due to them exporting to the US a lot less than what they’re importing.

On another note, I really hate that trump’s buffoonery is helping brics. They used to be just a bunch of greedy autocrats but now this asshole is giving them common ground to stand on.

I have a few and they’re good keyboards, especially at that price point. Keychron went from producing niche lower-quality stuff to broad range and improved quality and (from what i hear) back to unreliable products for the past year or so due to cost cutting. So look for a bit older models, I suppose.

During Tuesday’s City Council Land Use hearing, Vernikov signaled her support for the revised rezoning proposal at 2501 Coney Island Ave. — one that will allow only four stories comprising 27 units and 35 parking spaces, down from the original proposal of 11 stories with 60 units and 24 parking spaces.

Car-brains aside, this smells like corruption. 7 floors with an avg of 5 apartments per floor amount to only 2 parking spots per floor? Wtf are they parking in those spots? Something doesn’t add up. Over here we had the reverse problem: greedy developers signed for plans with x apts and y parking spots, only to convert the lower floor garages into extra minuscule apts after construction started.

I wonder what it was that made Pornhub cooperate this time around. Iirc in texas and france they just “left” instead of implementing the age verification.

Tamriel! Or at least Cyrodiil+Elsweyr

I’ve seen way too many couples (married or otherwise) that influence each other to vote Trump and other populists to believe that you can single out loneliness as a main cause of the rise of the far right. Lonely single males are on the rise, sure, and it’s a problem that needs dealing, but i’d wager most of those 3 million new single people are mostly old folk, since Germany’s populatin has been aging rapidly in the past decades.

Corporate accounts payable, Nina speaking. JUST a moment! Corporate accounts payable, Nina speaking. JUST a moment! Corporate accounts payable, Nina speaking. JUST a moment!

Lost those 400 million in 3 years no less. I know this seems like good news, but to me this is worse, because it looks like the PC market is shrinking fast in favor of mobile, and mobile is atrocious when it comes to user freedoms.

Drove a few cars with “lane hold” and it’s infuriating to have to suddenly correct the car’s trajectory at every curve because it misjudges the road line. Some cars are worse than others but it was literally the first thing I disabled every time. I wonder how truck drivers feel about it. Do modern trucks even have this?
