If you want privacy and you drive a car, I got bad news for you. Public Transit is privacy.

Withdrawing from NATO, I could see Trump entertaining that (wouldn’t actually happen).

Fire a bunch of the top leadership? For sure. That would both be something Trump could “order the military to do,” as well as something he might do, and it would also harm the US military’s capability to wage war.

Zero out Pentagon funding? Not possible for trump to do alone, but depending on the congressional make up, it could be done and would severely limit the ability of the US Military to wage war. They could even do it without affecting enlisted personnel enrollment. The Pentagon has their own funding 100% separate from military spending.

Could also deny all future discretionary spending for the military/pentagon.

Disband 20% of it’s career leadership.

Zero out pentagon funding.

Withdraw from NATO.

Replace Jewish with Israeli, or Zionist, and you are 100% accurate about what is happening.

It’s done intentionally. If you want a wired mouse, you can buy one of thousands of wired mice and use those. If you want a wireless mouse, it doesn’t need to and shouldn’t be plugged in while you are using it.

Death to Israel. However Iran is as big a threat to Israel as the average US citizen. They should probably work on reforming their government from a strongman theocracy to something closer to china. Having a “spiritual leader” is alone worthy ridicule, and revoking of international recognition.

But don’t worry, I’m sure the US with the current administration and the presumptive next administration bragging about how the US is the largest fossil fuel producer of all time also has nothing to do with it.

Right. A seismographic event like an Earthquake has a distinct and detectable difference from a nuclear test we know this because in the 60’s we had plenty of examples of the later to compare to.

What’s being done about extreme drought? New technology is helping to detect and respond to catastrophic wildfires sooner. In Spain, officials are utilizing 1,000-year-old technology to cope with a historic drought.

Replacing dirty energy sources with clean, technologically advanced, renewable energy sources can help cool our planet. We can all help by installing solar panels, choosing an electric vehicle for our next automobile purchase, and trading old HVAC systems for heat pumps.

Wow who would have thought that in order to help clean up the mess caused by Capitalism and consumption, all I need to do is wait for new technology and consume more. Probably nothing else that can or should be done by the Government of Brazil.

Don’t listen to this guy at all.

As unnecessary consumption is one of the roots of suffering in our world, yea. I don’t like sales culture. You don’t need any “good deals” in your life, it’s not going to make you happy. And your Pavlovian response to a fictitious holiday is the theme of the article.

I’d hardly call them “orders.”

Hmm…

I will shop for deals on both days

Yea…that’s the point.

Only sheeple shop on Black Friday. An astute and correct observation.

Note the author doesn’t use the word sheeple, but “black-friday” and “cyber-monday” he argues are top-down orders to the masses to consume, and he is absolutely correct.

I’ve long held that my phone is a single point of failure and that I should be able to function without it. So I don’t do banking on my phone, I still carry a wallet even if I do have Apple Pay and I will certainly carry physical identification until I’m legally unable to.

I honestly thought the number of concurrent users was a lot higher a lot longer ago, but either way, it’s come a long way since ~2003?

“Rights” can only be taken away by force, if there is no method to ensure compliance, this is yet another meaningless resolution.

I don’t know about the history of the project, but it sounds like those blobs have been there for quite some time. When in reality, the PR that added the blobs in the first place shouldn’t ever have been approved.

Actually just checked 3+ years.

This isn’t a knock against opensource programming, but there shouldn’t ever be precompiled blobs in the repo unless they are the official builds for the various OS’s and if you want to build from source, the pre-compiled blobs shouldn’t be part of that, otherwise you can’t really claim you are opensource.

Hey guys open source is great you can look at all the code and therefore there are no security backdoors etc. Also here are a bunch of pre-compiled blobs in the repo, don’t worry about those, but they are required to run the program.

Anti-semitism? how is that possible, I hate Israel, the most violent Anti-semitic nation on earth.
