They saw the horrors that our species can do in wars and promptly left the planet

Fuck, i wanted to make your point by using Gemini (which until a week ago had the same skills of a toddler when writing text) but somehow they managed to improve it too much. I assumed that it would be still impossibile to write text slanted and with a glow

Exactly, Israel is such a peaceful country. They would never invade their neighbors like Lebanon, Syria, ignore treaties, or pretend that Palestinian territory is actually belonging to them

Well if they didn’t genocide all those millions of innocent Jews 80 years ago, western countries wouldn’t accept the invasion and genocide in Palestine over the last decades

I think it depends from the motherboard. My 8th gen Intel Lenovo always update and reboot (and get to the lock screen) when I say update and shutdown while a gigabyte 6th gen Intel always update and shutdown (one reboot during the update install)

And if you dual boot and have Linux set as main, “update and shutdown” means “reboot to Linux”

I wanted to make this meme for the nth time my Lenovo rebooted (and left at the login screen) when I chose update and shutdown

Me when people are cheering on Israel, a country that literally executes innocent children

Let me guess which experts will get hired in their places

One will be a 22 years old gardener with 4 years of extensive research on vaccines on various forums

Another one will be someone with a master’s degree in arts but with ten years experience on bashing against vaccines on sitter

Then there will be an high school dropout that became rich selling supplements on a website that is advocating using chlorine as eyedrop

Finally some stay at home mom with 5 years of experience selling essential oils, specialized in curing any kind of disease, even terminal cancer

Wait, the president of the united states’ actually “truthed” that?

Isn’t like a declaration of war?

In my city we finally decided to install a tram line over a long avenue. Do you know that “classic” 4 lanes avenue where one lane on each side is practically reserved for assholes to “temporarily park” with hazard lights blinking?

So it becomes from 4 2 lanes to 2 lanes + tram. Win, right? I read an article about a sports goods store where the owner says “we decided to close shop now (when the tram construction isn’t even started) because next year without the space for customers to park (there isn’t now) how we could we continue business?”

It depends by the size (smaller is less taxed), but the law is old and it’s exempt only if under 1gb

70s? My government the private for-profit corporation tasked by my government to manage copyrights, every year still steals from everyone millions of euro “because that phone can be used to watch pirated content”

We pay 7 euro on each smartphone, 7.50 on each USB drive, up to 18 euro on each internal drive (sata or name, but under 160gb is free) and products are castrated with regional firmware because if it’s just a TV then it’s 4 euro tax, but if it allows recording it’s the 5% of MSRP

So it will censor stuff as requested by governments

I think it is extremely hard because they are served from the same servers (technically, ads are YouTube videos)

And if the logic on the client isn’t removed, it will hang waiting for the ad

Android, option 3 (Better): newpipe from fdroid. 0% algorithmic feed, exclusively show who you’re following, in chronological order

It is a serious problem when it’s not possible to know if a screenshot of a “truth” is actually true or it has been faked

It is very expensive for their pride.

Those billionaires don’t actually have the money ready in cash, just a tiny part of that is liquid, everything is in stocks. They are getting paid in stocks from their company. Why? Because until you’re selling the stocks, for the government you don’t have a revenue to tax. Suppose this year you get a salary of $100 billion in stocks. If you convert in cash only $100k, then the tax owed that year is minuscule. Those assholes have teams dedicated to minimize the amount of taxes owed. It is why he didn’t use his money to buy xitter but used his stock and “genius CEO” fame as a collateral to persuade banks and other arab investors to lend the money for him (and hold the bag if it sank)

So in order to donate that quarter of a billion he had to liquidate stocks and pay taxes on that. Ouch, so so much painful for a billionaire. For them paying taxes is like being robbed. So, it’s more like paying $20k for you

I remind everyone that Google invested not once, but twice in this company, for a total of $350 million

When phones were made of plastic, yes

Like the Google Nexus 5X (with a vinyl on the back because they chose the shittiest rubbery coating that get sticky with permanent fingerprints)

Almost a century ago, the fascist dictator of Spain wanted to appease Hitler and decided to move the timezone from the UK one to the German one. With daylight savings the situation in summer was a bit ridiculous: dark until 9 am and sun until 10 pm, it was very confusing as a tourist to have all the stores to open so late in morning and go out to eat dinner so late

I can’t imagine what kind of mess would be going to Japan as a tourist on UTC+0
