Talk about a shitload slice of the irony pie, the industry that has not given two shits about intellectual property is getting undone by the masters of intellectual property theft and they don’t even have a recourse because of the bed they’ve made. Now, it’s time to lie in it.

Loss in trust in the US economy under Trump along with the appearance of a new “Hail Mary” by investors who can look outside of the US’ national borders unlike Trump and his followers.

It’s a practical monopoly due to how they’ve exploited their Android presence in the mobile market. The only viable alternative is Yelp. The biggest problem is getting people to jump on the same platform and to leave reviews, and Google does this with mobile location tracking, even prompting the user when they think they’ve been remotely near a location at times. Maybe it does need a fediversed alternative, it is quite the unaddressed monopoly.

There’s a very possible line of events leading to the expansion of already present US bases in Greenland expanding and coordinating with private interests to exploit its natural resources. The US doesn’t want Greenland, they want their resources. He would be quite capable of stopping financial aid to Greenland related to those bases while refusing to move troops out to egg a response, and then using that response to justify even more forceful measures.

I didn’t have a problem with using YouTube Premium, but Google is doing a lot of shitty practices. The latest is purging Google Maps reviews in collusion with local authorities for private interests. Maybe don’t be part of a shitty monopoly while trying to push this sort of bullshit onto us?

Trump literally got into a heated exchange with the Danish representative. https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-had-horrendous-call-danish-193412504.html He is quite serious, because he’s all into the sort of government that could shift into the Project 2025 dictatorship he wants, and that’s imperialism. He’s setting up the ground for the fake outrage that will fuel actions that would otherwise be indefensible. They will still be indefensible, but doing it overtime allows him to prune his critics from any position of influence.

Promote Mbin. The only bad thing it has going for it is that it cannot block entire instances, which is odd because one would think blocking domains would do this. It also has a number of pet peeves, but none I’ve found to be as bad.

People who’ve gotten samples are claiming that it’s basically like having a hairdryer in your system. This suggests that normal GPU positioning will interfere even more with the CPU in an air-cooled system. People might need to consider switching to AIOs, use specially designed cases, or just buy one of the water cooled 5090 partner models just to make sure. In normal configurations the extra heating is liable to affect CPU, RAM, and potentially even M.2 performance.

Their business isn’t put at risk, we are long past the time when there were Edward Snowdens. Any intelligence agency involvement would be highly localized, highly specialized, and highly classified. You’d have more of a chance of a CEO of such a service outing themselves by sucking up to Donald Trump than getting ratted out. There are plenty of services that at one point or another did price themselves as being the privacy option that were later exposed, usually because they came from more well known brands that just happened to run into the situations that would expose them due to market presence.

A CEO is a good indication of the internal company culture at the top. He may be as much of a libertarian as Elon Musk is a “free speech absolutist”, I’m not going to assume the best case scenario because I am not invested in proton and don’t have an innate sunk cost fallacy. I agree with that comment, “it seems like he might just be bootlicking whoever is in power as appeasement”.

I bet you go to sleep with it every night.

Translation: DOUBT! DENY! STRAWMAN!

Actually, I always had the notion that proton was focused on security until this bit of news. This isn’t some conspiracy, I stay away from any social network or email service whose CEOs begin sucking up to Donald Trump because it’s a dead giveaway of how the leadership of those services are willing to discard ethics and morality for profits and preferential treatment. With services like Proton, this would most easily be done by making concessions to intelligence agencies. A CEO isn’t just “one bad apple”.

Welp, if you ever wanted any confirmation whether Proton was really psyops …

I consider this rather foreboding for their SFF 5090 release. If anyone is getting one, seriously reconsider getting one from another manufacturer, the guy in charge of overheating concerns got thrown out the window.

That’s because you choose to. You could easily move to mbin, for example. This post made me realize I had been holding back on it without a good reason.
