Is using a 30 year old VGA monitor “green”?
Is using a 30 year old VGA monitor “green”?
Multiple people were really angry when VGA ports disappeared, the amount of shitty corporate projectors with only VGA connectors was staggering and we had to resort to using adapters (“dongles”) for a long time until all of them were replaced with HDMI capable ones
Removing things is also innovation
Or do you still miss the VGA connector? A floppy disk drive? DVD drive in a laptop?
Corp accounts, Docker Desktop isn’t free for non-personal use
Gandhi did non-violent protests.
He didn’t burn himself alive, nobody would remember him if he did
But suicide by self immolation because of it?
Why? What drives a person to do that?
If you’re willing to die for the cause, why not immolate the Israeli consul for example?
As soon as Chinese “fishing vessels” aren’t armed and won’t turn their transponders off to sneak into territorial waters
Still light years ahead of FB groups tho
A basic DOS system has zero networking or open ports
You post to a location you control, then post the link to that to other sites.
That way you own and control the content.
There’s a reason why Meta and Twitter hate external links, it takes people out of their feed

(On a proper forum we could just point them to a FAQ thread, but Meta makes is intentionally hard because ✨engagement✨)
You guys do know you don’t have to use Windows?
AFAIK there’s a ton of their best anti air stuff parked around Moscow just because of this, they can’t risk the hits they’d take if they move it to the front lines
Putin has no endgame.
There is no timeline where he can step down and live peacefully.
His one in a million is to conquer enough of Ukraine and somehow be allowed to keep it - but that’s not happening unless Donald wins the election.
We don’t need to nuke them even, we can just use conventional munitions to fuck up every military installation they have to rubble.
And chuck a few Tomahawks at Kremlin to be sure
Nope, not anecdotal. It’s actual industry fact.
The phone you use combined with the country you’re in is a very good indicator on how likely you are to spend money in an app.
This is a perfect way to weaken Russia for a looong time both militarily and economically.
China will be the next one to do something stupid and a weak Russia is a good thing when it happens
Telegram might not be encrypted, but they’ve also spread their servers and content in multiple jurisdictions. And they don’t give in to law enforcement requests.
This is why Durov is being charged.
The smugglers don’t give a fuck, they got paid.
In the Mediterranean they use any shitty dinghy that just about floats and drive paying people to international waters, then the smuggler bails out in a proper boat and leaves the people adrift to be rescued by NGOs or coast guard.
