Actually it’s worse. They were told by the UK that they need to provide a backdoor globally.
And yeah, I’d say that’s a pretty safe assumption. Especially since we only know about the Apple one because of an internal leak, with neither Apple nor the government willing to comment,
Ah yes, the Racial Discrimination Act 1975.
Whitlam was incredible. Absolutely fuck the CIA and their collaborators for overthrowing the democratic will of the people.
That first happened to me at 18 and it was so weird. I was helping out at my old school for an interschool music festival—a week of all sorts of different workshops and rehearsals between different schools, culminating in a concert at the end. During a break I was tinkering around on the piano, and a student came up to me and said “excuse me, sir…[some question about the timetable or something, that I definitely didn’t have the level of authority to know the answer to]”. I have her the best answer I could and she went on her way, but I was just stuck there feeling way too old.
Anyone who hasn’t seen it already, I highly recommend “the alt-right playbook” series of videos about alt-right tactics and logic.
I don’t know what it’s like over in Canada, but here in Australia it seems like the two biggest problems farmers face are the increasingly extreme climate and the vicehold the supermarket duopoly has over the market, giving them both monopoly and monopsony power, allowing them to completely screw over farmers.
We have two main parties, one which has consistently been more in favour of action on climate change than the other, and which is also the less friendly one to corporate interests. We also have a third somewhat-major party that has extremely strong policies on climate change and monopolies. Guess which of these three parties farmers have consistently overwhelmingly voted for over the past 30+ years?
So nah, fuck 'em. They’ve brought it on themselves. I’ve no interest in taxpayers subsidising them.
But maybe circumstances in Canada are different.
Here’s an article from last year. It’s Australian, but I think it likely that car brands have the same or similar privacy policies wherever you go.
In short: Tesla and Korean brands are the worst. Japanese brands apart from Mazda are the best for privacy.
I have subscribed now, but it doesn’t seem to have pulled any old stuff. Just the newer posts, and the newer comments on the one older post I manually forced it to pull.
Fuck yeah Lichess is great!
I don’t mind the fact that apps on Android show ads. I mind the terrible inconsistency of those ads. Some have an X button at the top left, some at the top right. I’ve seen “mute” buttons in at least three different quadrants, plus some are within a small landscape window rather than taking up the full portrait-held phone. And some don’t have mute at all.
And then some have a fake-out X button that actually clicks on the ad if you try to use it.
And a couple of times I’ve gotten an ad that I literally couldn’t exit. Had to force quit the app to get back to it.
If the ads were a consistent experience, I would have a much less intensely negative opinion of them.
I’m not aware of any allegations relating to Age of Mythology or any of the Forgotten Empires–lead Age games. It would strike me as unlikely, given the nature of these games as remasters of ancient code by a group formed initially as modders for AoE2.
A different situation from aoe4, which was developed primarily by Relic, which is a much more conventional game development company, and was developed from scratch.
tbh I commented here in no small part to remind myself to check it out again when I’m back at my computer. Federation means on my phone (where accessing random other instances is more awkward) I don’t see anything in that community yet.
Cool! Love me some vampire media!
The supreme court has made it pretty clear that the President is a King. He cannot be prosecuted for anything.
I’m very nervous about the game’s future, given the AoE3 remake was just officially mothballed last week and AoM has fewer active players on Steam.
But for the game in its current state, I’d say that yes, it’s really, really good. It made a fair few changes from the old version, nearly all of which are excellent improvements. They said their goal was to make this game the game you remember playing through nostalgia goggles, rather than being strictly faithful to the original, and I think they did that really well. You can build bigger armies and reuse god powers. Better quality of life features, etc.
The Chinese expansion releases next month, and they’ve committed to at least one more expansion after that (by preselling the Premium Edition with the first 2 expansions). Aztects or something else from the Americas is likely. If it turns out those expansions are going to be cheap and rushed and crap just to meet their contractual obligations, that’s really unfortunate. I really hope that won’t happen. But in the worst case…the game with what they’ve released already is really good.

I’ve had no problems with ReVanced. It’s a little complicated to set up so I wouldn’t blame a non-techy for not doing it, but if you can set it up for them, it works great. And it has the huge bonus of being able to connect to your YouTube account to let you do things like comment and add to playlists, to work well when switching between desktop and mobile.
Personally I’m not enormously worried about SSH, because I’m behind NAT anyway, but yeah it’s definitely still something I’d rather keep off if not in use.
It’s the net score of the post. Upvotes minus downvotes.
I’m guessing the user who made that other comment is on lemmy.world? I can’t see any comment other than yours, and LW has known issues with federation (issues that would be fixed if the instance weren’t 5 version behind…) that mean I probably won’t be able to see it for about 2 days right now. So thanks!
I haven’t looked into the suggestion in great detail yet, but I will say I’m already running as a non-root user (
USER node
is a line in my Dockerfile). I’m not sure what a seccomp profile is, but in case it wasn’t clear from the original post, I just want to emphasise that the current configuration works in Docker on my Windows PC. It’s only on the Synology NAS that it fails.
