With Israel and Saudi Arabia the USA certainly has some lovely allies.

I don’t trust Bryan Lunduke as a source. He fell into QAnon conspiracy-type stuff and MAGA politics. Not a sign of good judgment.

Netanyahu evidently had his fingers crossed behind his back.

I guess the hit piece is just the title OP put on the post.

Once again ordinary people in the West are saved from affordable, low-pollution living, and Western companies are saved from having to compete.

It would be a single point of failure for many apps in case the curators of F-Droid were dishonest or hacked. They could insert bad things into lots of packages without having to change the public source code. But it also becomes the only point where malware or backdoors could be inserted that way, instead of having to trust every single developer to build honestly off the source code, which we’d have to do if they just stuck prebuilt binaries up there. I don’t know how rational I’m being, but it makes me trust F-Droid apps more that they build each one themselves.

You know, houses, apartments, roads, cities, hospitals, schools, the usual targets.

This is pleasing to the USA because the machine needs more money too.

You know what they meant by the first one. The second one is about people not being interested in dumb products like the Logitech AI mouse. Corporations are all jamming AI into their products and marketing materials not because users like it (they don’t) but because they hope it will attract investors. So AI is more interesting to investors than to people who don’t want it in their mouse.

Many of our home customers’ feedback indicated a preference for the certainty provided by an annual plan. The annual plan offers assurance that you always have access to the latest version with innovations such as improvements we’ve made in compression speeds and algorithms. It also ensures you have access to critical updates and are protected against new threats and risks.

I think they made that up. I highly doubt their customers expressed any such preference.

They’re even doing an eager supervillain hand rub in the photo, delighting in the pain they’re about to inflict.

Was their office under a rock somewhere? How had none of them stumbled upon what every other programmer in the world does?

The problem is that Librewolf’s continued existence depends on Firefox continuing to exist. And while I like Vivaldi (but not its closed-sourceness), if all browsers end up being Chromium-based, Google still has an effective monopoly on web standards.

It’s just about marketing. People don’t know about what they don’t hear about, and the wealthier companies can make sure people hear about them. There’s no budget for that with regular Fediverse sites.

I did watch it in the end after your recommendation, and it was interesting. Thanks!

It’s 30 minutes. Anyone have a quick summary?

And arresting him too, by the looks of it.

They’ll say some nice words about how Israel should be nice, and then change nothing. And if the Conservatives get in they’ll abandon the nice words.

Israel has shown again and again that it doesn’t care how many civilians it kills. Like any fascist state, it wears its lack of compassion with pride.
