Thanks!
This is my old account. Now primarily at @federalreverse@feddit.org (note the .org!)
Thanks!
No. Some societies demonize condoms. Some schools have chastity clubs. Even in relatively liberal societies, the pill and day-after pills are very often available on prescription only. Even in relatively liberal societies, hospitals may just not perform abortions for religious reasons.
While I haven’t heard a reasoning from any of these groups why they perform provocative acts in galleries and on historical sites, I think there are reasons:
A lot of art galleries, opera houses, and other institutions of high culture are supported by the super-rich. As such many of these institutions are outlets of fossil-fuel money.
High culture is essentially a distraction for those with education and intellect. So going to places of high culture means you tend to reach (and, granted, annoy) the kinds of people who have enough free mental bandwidth to understand and enough clout to actually influence decisions.
Man that headline is one beautiful bud of a pushing, expanding blossom of a choked metaphor. (tldr, so far)
Although I suspect you trying to be sarcastic: You’re welcome.
With politics, there’s always more than a single topic. And while the chat-control topic and its persistence sucks, keeping democratic structures in place, this can be rolled back at some point. If democratic structures are no longer in place, this is just going to prove a useful tool to whatever authoritarian is in charge.
There are many motivations why people organize in right-wing movements, but protecting civil liberties, democracy, or human rights are not any of them. At least not in any honest way. They may use these topics as part of scare tactics and to paint scapegoats.
You: “The EU is getting too authoritarian, let’s vote for more and more vile authoritarianism!”
I so have a slogan for Hungary’s next presidency: Hungary’s Yuropean Presidency Exults Rednecks
Contact me, Orban! I am committed to licensing this.
True but not relevant here.
I never bothered with banking apps. (Outside of the virtual debit card app from my bank. That one did install successfully. However, I never got try out in store because it deleted my virtual card after a few days and I didn’t care enough to set it up again.)
I use Calyx on a Fairphone 4. It’s not totally degooglified, since it comes with MicroG which is used to connect to Google services. I use Aurora Store and a couple of original Google Apps like Gboard too (none of my Google apps can access the internet, since they’re behind the built-in firewall). It works well except call functionality which can be wonky and there’s the issue that a lot of apps from Play don’t work well with MicroG. I only use a small selection of Play apps though, so it doesn’t bother me too much.
This is so weird, not just in the Netherlands but in the UK as well: So many hardline anti-immigrant politicians are immigrants themselves or descendants of immigrants. Why?
X11 is not made with security in mind. At the point where you disable Wayland, you can basically use native apps rather than flatpaked apps.
LBBW is owned by The Länd the state of Baden-Württemberg. I.e., some of the money seized is tax money or at least public money. I think that’s why it’s newsworthy.
Well, look at that face. Feel his virility. Could you resist?
Not quite, at least according to the article, I guess— although it does depend on what form the confrontation took.
The candidate was attacked after confronting an individual who was trying to remove an election poster on Tuesday, officials said. The perpetrator injured the man with a carpet knife.
Habeck is a member of the Greens and the Greens are in fact rather sensible. They
a) have supported arming Ukraine (along with FDP, while SPD has dithered), almost from the start
b) are not at fault for the German Vote, rather that is the doing of FDP, silently supported by chancellor Scholz
If you’re only looking from a financial perspective, sure. But given the slow construction times, these decisions are an issue for absolutely everyone, given that decarbonization is a worldwide project.
Hungary’s government is gonna fit in much better with the EU crowd after the parliamentary elections next weekend, when droves of people will vote for the right-wing traitors of the ID and ECR factions. Yay!?
Theoretically, this kind of extreme surge pricing should help people make the decision to invest in solar panels…?
Not an expert but: tldr don’t.
Battery calibration is supposed to help the battery’s firmware figure out how low the battery can go. It also tends to hurt your battery, so you should avoid performing these calibrations and keep the charge between 20% and 80% as much as you can.
It seems what you’re trying to do is improve battery estimation by the OS on a new machine. And in that case,
Is just trey trip love* I’d just try to live with possible insecurity of not knowing whether the machine has 15 or 25 minutes left.
