To quote a commenter on Ars:

“Freedom of speech for me, not for thee”

That sums it up quite accuratly.

You should really try the ‘Ask a mortician’ channel on YouTube. She brings answers to those morbid questions on a very light hearted tone.

It’s a different thumbnail now…what a pity.

When I saw this post scrolling by the thumbnail really got my attention…

That little piece of black mic in front of his nose…it just reminded me of some figure from the not so distant past…he also rallied huge crowds and they were all cheering for every single word he said.

As a european watching those ‘maga’ cult followers is disturbing. In the 1930s ‘some guy’ in Germany also rallied huge crowds cheering for him, no matter what he said or did. That same guy survived a assasination attempt.

Europe here. Taking shoes off at the door is cleanliness 101 in my house. Stops people from spreading all kind of dirt inside the house.

Then well, there is the matter of kids and pets. 1 kid, 1 cat here. This fundamentally changes how you need to clean the house.

Sometimes I try to remember what a great princess once proclaimed: let it go, let it gooo…

Yep. Using pcloud on Fedora, works fine.

Recognizable.

My brain hits it’s creative peak hours when laying down in bed in a dark room. It’s like rush hour on a busy road.

Safety concerns…who would have thought? This cannot be an actual recent concern. Everybody could see the safety issues from the day it was unveiled…

Good thing safety regulation is the reason why we hopefully will not see this monstrosity on EU roads.

On mobile I’m using DDG as primary browser. Firefox as secondary.

On my personal machine it’s Firefox and Chromium.

For my job I use Thorium as main (switched coming from Brave), Chrome, Firefox and Edge.

Could do without Chrome any day.

I can’t be the only one always making this ‘Sam Bankman-Fraud’ in my head when reading his name.

Better call saul. Deadwood. The Wire.

Impossible to pick a favourite one.

Would you mind sharing some ‘essential’ articles to read about this? I know the principle of how Netflix works, but always interested in learning more.

Just came to say thanks for the elaborated summary. Was already informed about the greater outlinings, but this adds some interesting details about the conflict.

This will be a ‘thing’ for many more decades. The hatred on both sides is so deeply grounded…quite depressing to see.

Iconic theme music I agree. But the new one has some epic vibe and grandeur, I really like it.

Formula 1 intro tune. A call will not be left unnoticed.

Worth checking out this live version https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8AYy-BcjRXg

Oh and as a bonus I will give you this alarm clock tune https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=enYdAxVcNZA

Belgium. The company is owned and ran by Liberty Global.

My mother has been connected to fiber recently (which she doesn’t need at all…advised against it, but you know sales pushing…) She gets an eye-watering 500/500mbps no cap connection for 78$ (including tv and fixed phone)

I’m more ‘rural’ so minimum 5 years before any fiber is passing by…

Could get a speed bump to 300/20mbps and ‘no cap’ (fair use policy) for about 10$ extra.

Yeah I could live without the cable subscription, but my wife cannot. Same plan with internet only would be about 36.50$

About 63€/68$ for 100/10mbps speed and a 150GB data cap. Including a cable tv subscription.

That’s in Europe.
