And, frankly, this is one of the least morally concerning things Israel has (presumably) done. The pagers were targeted specifically because they were used almost exclusively by Hezbollah.

I think in general it’s supposed to be about decentralisation, but god knows scammers will hop straight onto anything with “point-oh” in the name
Yeah it’s been like 3 years of this plus “but I like when the port is a circle, not an oval!” 😴
But all of those arguments are still valid, even if you make the assumption that it was all an evil scheme to make you buy some headphones
Has Kim been transphobic? Or is this just you generally hating techbros (not that I’d really consider him a techbro tbh)
Too little, too late, though, in classic Congress style
The Myanmar Rohingya genocide was nearly a decade ago now, and we’re somehow still at the “asking Mark nicely to do a better job of moderation” step, somehow
I guess the police at least are able to order Facebook to remove it (sounds like that’s what happened) but then yeah, as you say, I expect they will have just escalated to the county/state police, if anything
Yeah, and it also somewhat happens as a consequence of building military infrastructure there too. Military bases need people to staff them, and those people need food, water, entertainment etc etc
Not in, like, the “there’s nothing there” way, but in the “there’s no substantive economic, social or geographic reasons to treat it as a cohesive region” way
What’s with your name, buzz?
I, too, work in a similar type of company, and can confirm from experience that Linux can get just as absolutely fucked up by a bad kernel module as windows.
And it’s not just changes to the module that can cause things to go wrong.
For example, the kernel released alongside the latest Ubuntu LTS included a change that conflicted with our module behaviour, so machines with that kernel or newer would panic on boot.
It was a super minor change, but when you’re deep in the weeds, it’s really easy for these things to be brittle. But that’s just an inherent consequence of the fact that this sort of stuff is intrinsically low-level interaction with the OS itself.
That doesn’t exactly count when it’s occupied territory lmao
Oh silly me, your argument is even worse than I thought!
So the “bombing the Donbas” you’re talking about is the previous time Russia declared an unprovoked war against them!
“Russia had to invade, because last time they invaded, the Ukrainians fought back. Those bastards!”
Edit: as an aside, you somehow still managed to be entirely wrong, despite not even saying anything in your reply directly - the internet isn’t free, it’s extraordinarily expensive to run, and costs the consumer to use their ISP, too!
I mean, that’s straight up not true lol
Your claim is that Ukraine - while not at war - was bombing itself? And that would be a legitimate casus belli for Russia to invade them, and then seize that territory for themselves?
That’s a batshit insane take
Russia invades its neighbour, unprovoked, explicitly to seize their agreed sovereign territory
“Why would America do this?”
Name a more iconic combo than lemmy.ml and criticising something they haven’t even read (watched in this case)
Well, yes, that’s kind of the whole concept of the overton window
Do you have some examples of the structural changes he’s made? My understanding (disclaimer: I’m not french, so don’t follow their politics as closely) was that one of the biggest frustrations both from the left and right is his refusal to make any real change
The biggest event I can think of from his presidency is the retirement change age, but it stands out more to me because of the backlash than the significance of the change itself
(in a political context) favouring free enterprise, private ownership, and socially traditional ideas
Conservative implies right leaning, centrist implies opposed to large scale change
One can be a radical conservative, and one can be centre-left
The word I was looking for is “centrist”
Yeah that’s a fair point wrt non-militant roles, my assumption was that they were primarily used in the military since their purpose was to avoid the issues with mobile networks being used to track them.
But we don’t know exactly how the devices were distributed, so you’re right that there were potentially a large number of non-military Hezbollah staff.
