I obviously do not support this application of martial law. I pointed at a mask mandate because it fits your dictatorship vision.

I also didn’t say a thing about kidnapping. Telling people to “get off a plane” without a justification is not kidnapping. If you say “get off this plane, we think it has a bomb on it” things wouldn’t fly any better with people freaking over and having panic attacks. You can do the explaining once people are out of the plane.

So, you can’t accept the idea that in very specific circumstances it can be a good thing for cops to tell you to do something without having to reach for a court order? Like an emergency evacuation order that needs to be secret during that very same hour for whatever good reason or the checkpointing of people in a region where you know that a major prison break just happened?

Not talking about the random pig just thinking “hmm, I’m the boss now” out of nowhere; I’m talking about someone like the head of the police forces giving an order indiscriminately that is limited to a temporal scope.

Even things like “masks are mandatory” can be seen as a “muh freedoms” violation.

If you take things to such extremes, can we have the freedom not to have such freedom? Apparently is what the entire world wants except for a few thousand internet folks

As for the “no system is foolproof”, you’re thinking of implementations, not algorithms. An algorithm can indeed be something-proof. Most “known” algorithms are built on top of very strong mathematical foundations stating what is possible, what is not and what is a maybe.

As for the ads thing, Mozilla is not making a dime off this. It is not monetizable. They’re basically expecting that by giving advertisers a fairly “benign” way to do their shenanigans they will stop doing things the way they currently do (with per-individual tracking).

The absolutists might say that there’s no such thing as benign ads, however truth is that the market forces behind ads are big enough that you’d get website-integrity-bullshit rather ad-free web. Having tracking less ads is better than having a “this website only works in chrome” or “only without extensions” internet.

Is there any other possibility? Maybe. Is is reasonable to think that the moment tracking starts getting blocked em masse, we risk a web-integrity-bullshit +wherever-said-tracking-can-exist-only internet? I think so.

One can’t be made without having him agree to it…

Unanimous consent is a big thing to be solved

The kind of rhetoric that you should be able to say anything you want consequence-free flies well in the US. Not so well anywhere else. If you praise the Nazis in most of Europe you get in trouble, especially in Germany. I don’t quite see how it would be different in South Korea.

People should be able to declare some speech as dangerous speech, because it does way more harm for society than good. The usual problem is that sometimes people try to do this with speech that is not dangerous. Dangerous is very subjective and there should be no such thing as the Ministry of Dangerous Speech.; but if 99% of people agree to something, well, it is a bit less likely that the “dangerous speech” is just an autocracy of the masses. If you disagree so profoundly with 99% of the people around you, then maybe there’s some other society more fit for your views.

Can you source that? Cuz there’s plenty of evidence about most of the West Bank being segregated to the point of Palestinians not being allowed to use streets that everyone (Israelis, tourists) can, Palestinians being forced to live in slums covered in nets to prevent debris from Israelis to hit them, Palestinian houses outside of Israel being demolished whenever Israel feels like it.

I don’t even know about Gaza. All of this was a mess way before the Hamas attack. Not too long ago, there was a visit from an American journalist with Palestinian parents to west Bank cities, to test waters. She was guided by Israelis who denounced the Israeli government. They were literally doing nothing, yet the moment they set foot in the West Bank they were raided and bullied by the IDF. It is reported that this is a thing that has been happening to literally every Palestinian. They had to be let go since they were not Palestinians and toured one of the major west Bank cities to show what it looks like in there. It gets stupid to the point that Palestinians who live next to the whole lot of checkpoints can’t have visits at home since checkpoints do not allow for anything but to pass from one zone of the city to another, not to houses next to them. It was a very heartbreaking thing to see, the whole tour.

Add those living conditions to a lack of education and one can very well understand why they voted for someone that promises them to get rid of their aggressor, even if that someone is a terrorist organisation. They know no better, all they have seen in their lifes has been bullying and hell on earth.

Did it occur to you that most things in nature have radioactive isotopes and that for nuclear reactors we look for the most radioactive bunch, refine them to remove the least radioactive bits and then use them in reactors?

If you reverse that process (well, not really a reversal as you now have different atoms) and re-dillute stuff in nature in a sensible way, you’re not going to get anything that is substantially above ambient levels. The oceans are tremendously big and the waste water is already quite treated. One is not going to notice a change in relative terms anywhere on earth unless high-precision equipment is used.

This is not a very-scientifically-accurate comment, but if it was you would not understand so lets keep it like this.

live translate

What is that? Google translate listening and translating live? Google lens translating images? Both work.

hold for me feature

No clue about what that is.

In general most things work just the same, and things that do not tend to be listed in the Graphene docs.

Isn’t it? It somewhat-works in the browser but you don’t get proper noise cancellation there nor quite some other features. Their native client is using an ancient version of Electron that, at least on Linux, leaves a lot to be desired. No audio-share, no proper Wayland support, no High-dpi.

There are quite a few amateur GitHub projects with patches and repacks to show how things should be done.

If a client is only good on Windows, then it is not that good. Remember Skype?

Simple reason being that there’s no notoriously good OS for Samsung phones.

Graphene is highly focused on not being annoying while keeping privacy intact. You can, for example, have Google Play Services, within a sandbox. Everything can be denied network access, or any access really, on a per app basis.

It also relies on Google’s security chip to keep the chain of trust intact. The boot sequence and your private keys are kept intact that way. Not everyone documents and opens their hardware as well as Google. Samsung is notoriously terrible and full of it when it comes to allowing you to do your own thing.

I’m going to assume it means that the client (installed app) is moving so fast (and breaking compatibility so fast) that some servers are currently unable (or don’t want) to keep up. A reason to hold versions is, for example, to have more stability assurances.

The Lemmy ecosystem is going to be a mess for the next months until everything is properly oiled.
