With wars like this there tends to be a point where one side breaks and the other side surges forward. If Ukraine is reaching their breaking point this could be a sign. They could try to get a diplomatic solution before they fail to hold the line and begin to lose ground rapidly. But if Russia knows that too why accept?

Oh you sweet summer child

Do not leave batteries inside things your not gonna be using for a long time. And if you don’t want this to happen buy NiMH batteries

France and India pulling disproportionate weight here it seems

“A MINOR SETBACK ON THE PATH TO THE SINGULARITY!” -

It would be nearly impossible to prove in a court of law that was not your real profile. All you’d have to do is say that is your travel phone and you don’t use it for much.

I like names that are uncommon enough to not be boring but not too out there. Also having a cool like origin/meaning is nice. Examples with meaning/origin and prominent figures sharing the name included:

Silas: Greek/Latin meaning Forest or “of the Forest” Silas Deane, founder of the Methodist Church

Wesley: Old English meaning west meadow Wesley Moore, current Governor of Maryland

August: Latin (Augustus) meaning magnificent Augustus Caesar, First Princeps of the Roman Empire

Audrey: Old English meaning noble strength Audrey Hepburn, American Actress

Evelyn: English and French (Aveline) meaning hazelnut Evelyn Waugh, English Novelist/Satirist

Florence: Latin meaning blossoming/flourishing. Florence Nightingale, Pioneer in the Medical Field

You could approximate this by simple having the main profile be left as a dummy profile and users use secondary profiles for their data. Then when you put the special code in it discretely deletes all but the main profile, leaving your dummy profile intact however you have set it up, and they’d have no idea your other profiles were where the data really was. They’d just unlock the phone, see the dummy profile, and think that was the phone.

opposition to a very general thing that the general public might believe is a good thing?

Does the general public seem to believe that? Because it seems to me they’re rioting for the opposite reason.

I’m gonna agree with others that there need to be standards not a blanket ban. I’d leave it up to the admins/mods what those are. Because getting too granular with it wold be hard to enforce. You guys pick something you feel is reasonable and will cut down on 0 effort slop but also allows you to enforce things without digging through the minutia of every post.

Do you genuinely believe that western economists give a single shit about poor people?

“Um, Akshually the textbook definition of Austerity is…” We both know that the word is used by liberals in government to justify cutting very SPECIFIC things. And regardless it means to reduce overall government spending right? In a nation that has income inequality of any kind this means that the ones who have the means will simply look out for themselves, and the ones who do not will suffer or die. No matter WHERE you remove money from the economy it will always reduce the overall money supply moving around, and this will always hit the poor before it hits anyone else.

Go ask ChatGPT to define hyperbole for you.

As stupid as that would be Bazzite or some other immutable distro with defender is still better than windows. But I highly doubt every single immutable distro will decide to do this either. Some might, but each team is going to make their own choice. And honestly its a great litmus test to know what never to install.

You are assuming the people who “support austerity” do so because they think it will improve the situaton, and not just because they do not fucking care if poor people die or not.

Many people may see this and assume its just them drinking their own koolaid essentially but there is a bit of a twisted logic to it. They’re basically just buying so many of these to keep the foundries happy to make them. They do have this delusion that they’ll need more of them, but its more that they want production to increase so they are creating demand. Which is actually WORSE for the economy, because once their bet fails not only are these GPUs worthless but the foundries have built out production capacity that is now worth way less.

“It’s not austerity!” Goes on the describe what austerity is. It’s literally the word they use when they defund essential services lol.

do you understand what the word ‘or’ means? The commentor was clearly just listing common talking points anti-communists use. You are purposefully misconstruing their words because you can’t engage in substantive conversation about an issue that your total amassed education on probably amounts to the literal meme above.
