Double yikes. That almost by definition means cloud and data storage in god knows where. Somebody really wants that sweet sweet profitable metadata.

If you’re stuck in the frozen state, you can Ctrl+alt+delete 7+ times quickly to tell systemd to try to restart the system.

Less destructive way would be to try to open a terminal session with ctr+alt+f3 (or any f key) If it's only the gui that's frozen. Makes it also possible to troubleshoot things from there. I had this issue recently. AMD core boost caused random freezes to kwin.

Do the spooks get public authorization now? Isn't this bad for the organic opposition and people's uprising narrative that they might want to pull off?

A slur mainly on the internet against those leftist (usually Marxists-leninist) who oppose western interventions, sanctions, coups and wars against countries and governments labeled as "authoritarian".

originally used by UK communists party trotskyist wing in support of Hungarian -56 crushed uprising against those who opposed it, calling them tankies. Vaguely same as "stalinist", but it pretty much has lost that meaning in modern use.

it will not abide by the humanitarian terms of the ceasefire agreement.

I would have thunk that the end of days were upon us if Is*ael didn't pull something so scummy right from the start.

For the whole war AFU has been a supported by and is a a training ground for not just drug cartels, but also Jihadists and neonazis, and it's not really inflitration if they accept anybody who is ready to fight for money or just hates russia for their own reasons. Ukraine as a whole is also a massive black market weapons depot for all of the worlds militants and criminals because of the systemic corruption the country.

The slop beside... What's the point of throwing your students out a of class if they hadn't done the prepwork? In principle It's their personal learning that suffers there and at college/uni level you have to take responsibility for your own learning. if you don't you fail. It's not the professors job to enforce everybody's personal work morale outside of grading. If this something set out as mandatory for passing course, then fine, tough shit for students. I'm like almost imagining that the lecturer is punishing them or making an example of them as if they were a bunch of 12yo kids not doing their AI-slop homework and therefore disrespecting her authority. If they actually lacked the prerequisite knowledge to take part in discussion then they could have at least listened others speak and her maybe teach? No prepwork can be so important that the subject is totally incomprehensible if you don't do your AI-slop prep.

Tbh I don't know jack about American uni/college teaching culture or mybe enough of this case, but this sounds fucked.

All the big adult sites will probably just die or at least shrivel in popularity. Most Europeans simply will not use whatever "tell Brussels or London where or what what you are watching" option is. In the place of the big sites there will be a billion shady and likely virus-lottery proxy sites whose only selling point is that they do not do age checking or require registration. Those then get occasionally smacked down by Brussels, just to be replaced with 10 more clones the by the next week. On the side piracy and vpns will thrive. Kids will not be protected nor will people's privacy, quality will be worse.

I would also bet that when the landscape decentralizes there will be a lot more cp, revenge and peep-videos and other illegal shit in the mix that will get through through the cracks since massive established sites had to actually fear shutdown and losing all revenue unless they had robust gatekeeping mechanisms. If Brussels wants your 2 month life-expectancy site dead anyway, because of it's only selling point of having to show id, then why really bother with the quality control of the material. Especially if site holder has no personal qualms about that stuff.

It's kinda same when you hear people starting their sentences with "I'm not political, but..." and you can then be sure that for a next few seconds you will hear the most feverish liberal take possible.

"The tiny amount of aid that was on the yacht and not consumed by the 'celebrities' will be transferred to Gaza through real humanitarian channels," the ministry added.

They will toss the aid to the wood chipper and laugh about it, won't they...

I mean at this point if you have seen what Israel has done, unfiltered by the media, then there is almost nothing that will shake people out of their views. If you support Israel after knowing that they purposefully shell hospitals and children, then you will most likely keep supporting Israel no matter what. Same goes for those who oppose Israel and it's genocide.

Why do kill switches when you can just hog all the work of maintaining some critical part of the infrastructure and make it's functioning and maintenance so opaque and impenetrable that the employer can't replace or fire you without their shit catching fire soon after. It doesn't have to be malicious or illegal.

His efforts to sabotage their network began that year, and by the next year, he had planted different forms of malicious code, creating "infinite loops" that deleted coworker profile files, preventing legitimate logins and causing system crashes

I wish this guy was were actually politically motivated, but he seems to have been just really petty minded person.
