If you give people power full stop… it’s crazy. Voting for somebody to make decisions that you mostly won’t agree with, so that they can mostly line their pockets.

🥴🤷🤷

In many ways the blatancy has been a good thing, it’s the level of corruption now by Trump, his family and cohorts that’s way beyond ‘out of control’.

But at least the rest of the world are watching and hopefully noticing similarities with any of their own politicians antics to compare.

Thanks to Trump, there are at least some telltale signs to be looking out for.

Hopefully Venezuela gets their oil money back and his filthy dirty rancid hands away from all of their assets.

His term already seems incredibly long.

That looks like a nice little device, I am not sure how portable, maybe just in the house… I will find out. I will forward that device for sure, and I have no idea why a standard bluetooth speaker can’t do it, maybe it just wasn’t thought of. Speaker with microphone hooked to his Lenovo wouldn’t be bad.

Thanks, yep, I should clarify. The dads brother is working on an opt out project and he is trying to learn, but in very early days yet. I think it is because of his son that he would like more privacy but he is fairly backward about it. For example he says he wants to do it and is going to start, but afaik he hasn’t even done any basics, but he is definitely going to start more as he is also getting nudges from me, his brother and another friend of ours.

Thanks, they both seem like great options, I am going to throw them at him verbatim, and see what he thinks.

I will try and get him on to the lineageOS option.

That’s not a bad idea, I will suggest that to him, although I doubt that he will be able to put lineageOS on it and he is in another country from me, so might be able to help him strip it down anyway.

I know very little about DAB radio other than they initially flopped. Can the child ask to play x,y and z songs?

That’s my point. They are the ones who should be transparent. The reason they are pushing this, the reason SKG was beaten etc… They need reminding.

It won’t be long before they are at our doors, cap in hand begging for us to tick their name on a ballot paper as we should believe that they are the best person/people for the job.

Deciding on the Procedure means Deciding on the Substance

If the urgency is approved on Tuesday, the decisive vote on the substance is scheduled to take place as early as Thursday – the final sitting day before the summer recess. Experience shows that significantly fewer MEPs are present on this day. However, since 361 votes are required for amendments or a rejection, the reinstatement of the expired “Chat Control 1.0” regulation would become virtually inevitable.

Every payment sent, every penny received, every communication, every deal that they try to strike should all be publicised as they seem to forget which direction the transparency should be.

“From tiny acorns, mighty oak trees grow”

It is corny (because we hear it so often), but it’s true. You don’t have to start any movement on your own etc. But plant the seed in other peoples head.

No conspiracy theory, no ‘fake news’ etc.

I won’t agree fully with the Sovereignty movement until I know it’s not being used.

But just facts. Maybe it will reach enough ears that someone will decide to do something about it that will start your country to join the movement away from US big tech.

Europe already starting to test that… EU digital sovereignity is only really in its infancy with France, Germany and Denmark leading the way in moving quickly away from it. Thanks partly (mostly) to Trump ordering them to block access to ICC.

9 staff members, 6 Judges received sanctions from Trump for investigating Israel for warcrimes.

So it’s not just Microsoft.

MasterCard and visa, Google etc… all slowly going to feel the affects.

Governments around the world are switching to Linux

• Credit cards cancelled, Google accounts closed: ICC judges on life under Trump sanctions

• French ICC Judge Guillou Claims Trump Blocked His Visa, Mastercard After Issuing Netanyahu Arrest Warrant

Not glorifying. There was a video about 2 years ago online where they were boasting about the rapes that they had done that week.

At a guess, the word ‘allege’ is used, because the Israeli government are litigious. (posted same reply, but just realised that this is different sub)

I thought Collabaro would for sure.

I don’t really know these, but…

Can we counteract/preempt these bullshit claims of antisemitism once and for all.

Any protesters protesting against Israel, should (beforehand) cite that they are anti-war, anti-genocide, anti-famine causing, anti-fascist, anti-violence, anti-rape, anti-torture, anti-intentional targeting of civilians, anti-use of human shields, anti-breach of medical neutrality, anti-targeting of schools, anti-attacking civilian and protected objects, anti-targeting journalists, anti-incitement to genocide, anti-wanton destruction, anti-attacking of medical facilities, anti-pillage, anti-unequal justice (the list goes on)…

If Israel are committing any or all of those crimes, then that’s on them, I’m just agreeing with the UN and any rational minded global bodies.

“Those who attack the state of Israel instead of terrorist regimes”

Is there a bit of an oxymoron in there somewhere?

It’s a very expensive day out for the parents
