let democracy, law and order do its job

As if the Entity currently committing Genocide isn’t considered a democracy. Or the one which invaded Iraq under the lie of them having nuclear weapons isn’t a democracy, and has resulted in hundreds of thousands of civilian deaths. or millions of death caused by colonialism of “European Domocracies” the biggest of which is the UK. I can go on and on about what democracies have committed around the world. you can still use it to pat yourselves on the back. but if you take a honest look you will see that democracies aren’t inherently better than other forms when it comes to criminal and imperialist conduct.

They are tying their tongues in knots when the answer to South Africa’s case is really simple. Israel “IS COMITTING GENOCIDE” and it should stop.

there are significant concerns from both sides on human right issues, war crime and individual conduct.

it is Like saying we have heard you but Israel needs to finish the job here. So here is a token for All of you Allies Of Israel, Let’s All act concerned about Human rights violations and respecting international law so we can buy them more Time. and if any faction of your citizens criticize your inaction, you can refer to our decision as we are the sole jurors of international law.

They are very fierce at censoring their IP material, anything that lands on youtube that hasn’t been altered to avoid copyright bot, gets taken down immediately. even shows that have aired the same day.

Yep, even when bing censors something, it gets censored by DDG aswell, DDG is just a fancy proxy.

Does it really matter. when a country Like South Africa puts a solid case before the ICJ with solid documented proof about all genocidal attacks on civilians. The ICJ and the international community prefers to look away. and instead tells Israel to be more careful “next time”, as if what has been committed isn’t already enough.

I have been following the DMA closely, and so far it has been a big disappointment, just as I expected.

The way the EU approaches this walled garden problem, is to try and offer ways for other competitors to tap into the user base of the bigger players instead of trying to allow all EU citizens to chat with any other EU citizen who uses META Products regardless of their host platform. meaning “us” people who wish to self host an xmpp or Matrix servers and chat with facebook friends, It won’t be straight forward or entirely possible for us to do so. unless maybe by doing a KYC with META. and signing up very stringent service agreements.

Meta will be creating all sorts of hurdles the DMA laws will allow them to, to cripple interoperability, from making other plateform signing up to special permissions from Meta, to hiding interoperability settings and making them opt-in, and building a scary rhetoric why you shouldn’t be allowing other people outside of META to get in contact with you. There are some valid concerns, but I suspect Meta will implement the most spiteful procedures they can get away with, then spin up a rhetoric about proving their users being massing against interoperability.

Copilot was trained on FOSS software, so maybe it’s already too late.

I have never seen a cucked nation like the UK in the world before. u guys have no resistance what so ever ! the french should have bought you some freedoms a few centuries ago.

Eternity

Caspian report is crap opinions passing as geopolitical knowledge and analysis. I have watched a few of his vids. and the guy doesn’t know what is really happening in other foreign countries, but it doesn’t stop him from writing 30 mn long bullshit videos and impressing an audience that is just as uneducated about those subjects as him. i.e Any one who claims to know everything about every other country in the world is a FRAUD.

Those who buy apple products deserve each other.

You guys are complaining about a subscription to apple and amazon ? go look how much a subscription to an Autodesk product costs ?

I call bullshit on this, This is nothing short of propaganda by think tank that is financed by the military industrial complex.

Putin won’t dare NATO member countries, especially when he hasn’t finished with Ukraine.

What these big giants were trying to do is scoop up as much talent as possible so they don’t end up at a competitor, even if that meant some employees would be getting very light workloads. that’s one of the many reasons too Google keeps starting new projects and killing them a few years later.

I don’t know where you are getting your numbers. maybe it’s your selection bias, but facebook’s userbase keeps groing, and even if its getting less teenager engagement, those teenagers are flocking to Meta’s other platform Instagram.

pdfdrive Thanks for the suggestion, is it any better than z-library or do they host the same content ?

Contrary to many in here, I don’t think this will cause another exodus from reddit. those who might be concerned by this have already left or reduced their time on the platform

I always thought about why don’t FOSS projects that are at risk of getting sued by big corp like (NewPipe, Popcorn Time, streamio, tachiyomi …) embrace the dark web or git over torrent via VPN, so their projects don’t get threatened with take downs. z-library ended having to move to the dark web after all.

So they are not independent then. not even their staunchest ally (USA) recognizes their Independence, so I don’t see where is the controversy with Irish PM’s statement.

He is not technically wrong, as the Taiwanese themselves haven’t declared independence from China.
