2·9 days agoI think advocacy groups and other entities that were trying to make changes at a national or state level need to reevaluate their efforts.
Wait, what changes? No really what promised changes did Harris run on?
What does what OP said have anything to do with Harris?
I honestly believe that he will manufacture an event (civil war, massive civil unrest, etc.) in order to declare martial law and suspend elections before his term is up. He might also extend term limits, and make it possible to serve more than two terms. Any elections after that will likely be just for show, like in Russia.
I think they meant he was going to send troops to fight for the Russian side.
I’d honestly prefer breaking up the country to the alternative.
One of the problems with that is that there isn’t a geographical divide like the last time (north vs. south). Unfortunately, I live in a red area of California. Are we going to build a wall around our county? The major city in our county is a bit more liberal. How would that work?

For those unfamiliar with that incident:
On April 9, 2017, at Chicago O’Hare International Airport, four paying customers were selected to be involuntarily deplaned from United Express Flight 3411 to make room for four deadheading employees. One of these passengers was David Dao, 69, a Vietnamese-American who was injured when he was physically assaulted and forcefully removed from the flight by Chicago Department of Aviation Security officers. Dao, a pulmonologist, refused to leave his seat when directed because he needed to see patients the following day. In the process of removing him, the security officers struck his face against an armrest, then dragged him – bloodied, bruised, and unconscious – by his arms down the aircraft aisle, past rows of onlooking passengers. The incident is widely characterized by critics – and later by United Airlines itself – as an example of mishandled customer service.

WTF?
Obviously not if you’re the sheriff.
Off-topic, but did you see Linkerbaan got baanned? LOL

“The default application launcher in Ubuntu is provided by GNOME Shell, offering a full-screen grid of icons — but it isn’t to everyone’s tastes.”
4·2 months agoDo any of these UN votes actually mean anything?
In terms of actual change, no, not really. But when most of the world condemns what you’re doing and you still continue it weakens their soft power. Countries are less likely to trade with them, less likely to help defend them if they’re invaded, etc. But, yeah, all this is is them saying “I’m mad at you for doing this and not stopping when we ask you to.”
Like Israel can do what they want regardless right? There’s nothing to enforce this.
This is true.

I couldn’t find any info about this with a quick search. Do you have any links to where I can read more about this?
adding unique IDs to every installation.
I wasn’t familiar with that so I did a quick search. For anyone else interested here is some info about it:
- Each Firefox download has a unique identifier -ghacks, Mar. 2022
“Internet users who download the Firefox web browser from the official Mozilla website get a unique identifier attached to the installer that is submitted to Mozilla on install and first run.”
[…]
“Firefox users who prefer to download the browser without the unique identifier may do so in the following two ways:”
-
Download the Firefox installer from Mozilla’s HTTPS repository (formerly the FTP repository).
-
Download Firefox from third-party download sites that host the installer, e.g., from Softonic.
“The downloaded installers do not have the unique identifier, as they are identical whenever they are downloaded.”
In the comments section someone says:
“It seems that getting Firefox from GNU/Linux repos (Debian, etc.), doesn’t come with unique IDs.”
If you think that’s bad you don’t want to ask his opinion on homosexuality. He’s a raging homophobe.
I know it’s off-topic but that guy really gets on my nerves.
