This will escalate as well.
I truly hope that they’ll fight back, and that the world will notice, but honestly I’m not so sure. How long did it take for Gaza to become a household name? How much does it take to break a people? How many Palestinians are even left anymore?
Aah, I did not consider Netflix & Spotify. yeah that makes sense. I never paid for those either. But of course you can only self-host media if you first get it from somewhere*.
I do wonder who takes money separately/only for calendar hosting.
But yeah, all in all that amounts to a lot, and considering you can have a VPS with decent storage for under €10/mo. - it’s really the best solution.
That’s interesting. Can you elaborate?
I was going to think up something more elaborate, but this is enough.
I’m also a bit of an electronics hoarder recycler, which probably got me into Linux in the first place. And Linux proved me right: old hardware is still good. My first server was a 32 bit laptop.
I also work in the social sector btw.
Yeah this. Reminds me of the slow but inevitable death of German coal (is it even dead now? it probably still writhes in some corner).
OTOH, considering where our “big brother” is going, you might be unironically right. Let’s hope not.
“Quietly” meaning that Western media are currently tired of the conflict and busy with something else. A cycle that has repeated countless times.
it is a mistake that will become expensive, bloody, and self-destructive as it accelerates the cycles of resentment and violence
Totally agree. Look back at the past 8 decades of this conflict and all the other horrors unleashed at least partly through America’s attempts to “stabilize” the area. The only thing they seem to have learned is “we need more guns”.
PS: “Quietly” also means that most Palestinian journalists are - dead.
This is a yearly report of a national agency, not just opinion.
The Baltic states were part of the Soviet Union until its collapse. All three are fiercely dedicated to never become part of that empire again.
Whenever they say things about Russia, you better listen. They have the experience, they recognize the patterns.
Also to Meduza, it’s a great outlet. I listen to their podcast.
That’s how China exerts influence over dissidents abroad. Certainly more subtle than poisoning, but not better.
And even then. Sure, there’s cunning, and an unshakable will to be the boss, but “conviction and leadership”? I wouldn’t go that far. Esp. conviction - it depends very much on what you are convinced of, and the past years have shown us that Putin is no better than Trump in that respect. Delusional.

And I’m pretty sure he’s been doing that for a while already.

Considering many years have passed I don’t think it’s necessary to use a cutting edge distro anymore, but the reddit thread says something about having to update the BIOS to the latest version.
It’s weird to see this essentially American scandal have actual, real impact in practically all countries except the States.
How did such a bumbling fool get the job in the first place?
Petrecca’s reportedly close allegiance to Giorgia Meloni’s far-right government.
Oh. I rest my case.
I’m angry at Germany especially. They cling to the post-WW2 Never Again doctrine, but only wrt Israel.
As things are now, they are achieving literally the opposite of what that was meant for, i.e. preventing another genocide.
Thanks for you reply! It’s good to hear that.
As I said (maybe here or elsewhere), I can understand that China can feel like the better alternative considering where the USA are at (and going).
“Most of the world” is not electing a dictator anyway. It’s not a mask to take off but a dangerous development to counter.
What? Disk encryption is definitely “allowed”, and yes, that is how you should do it. It’s not “cumbersome” either, most installers have a GUI for that, and if Hetzner offers preconfigured images, full disk encryption is probably one of the offers.
I am now convinced that you are a little overwhelmed by the thought of managing a VPS. That is totally OK! But don’t go talking out your ass because of it.
No you didn’t. It’s not going anywhere, but it will always be a minority compared to SAAS.
It is. But now I want cooking-related metaphors for the relentless attacks coming in from everywhere, the need for encryption etc. Please.
Wait, the blog author is an AI? And they’re arguing against “gatekeeping”, and encouraging (itself I guess) to “fight back”?
And I just gave them 3 clicks?
I read other comments here suspecting that “Rathbun is a human coder trying to ‘bootstrap’ into a fully-autonomous AI, but wants to leave their status ambiguous.”
I think they’re right.
Could also be some sort of cosplay or almost religious belief in AI.
But even if this is a full-on hoax, I suddenly feel very old.
