That’s a fair point. Actively disabling it at the last minute, after everything had been underway, is significant.

Yeah, I honestly don’t understand why this narrative even needs to be played out.

I don’t know what angle there is by making Musk a scapegoat beyond, maybe, Ukraine trying to strengthen its supporting relationship with the US population, but it already has most of the US support anyway.

Musk has his issues, there’s no doubt about that, but not wanting to be involved is an ethical stance to take on his part.

I think they do, hence the statement.

Caffeine is a refuge for many people. It’s addictive, but there are far worse things to be addicted to.

It’s beginning to feel all bad at this point, yeah, I agree.

They’ll save a lot of money, but (a) the cost isn’t worth it and (b) it’s just totally assenine logic that takes a dump on the idea of a government’s existence having any sense of meaning that goes beyond serving the interests of the wealthy.

Under the latest plans, tech companies would need to notify the British government before rolling out a security fix but might be refused permission if it blocks a vulnerability that’s being exploited by security services…

I suppose these days it’s cheaper to find some half baked vulnerability and pray it lasts a while instead of just adding back doors in the devices

Mostly everyone who says taking someone else’s property is okay if you feel they deserve it

I don’t think that’s ok. Humans need their space, man.

If you don’t see a huge commie bent here, then I would assume it’s because you are a commie or are commie-adjacent

I see a moderate and a left bent here. Both of those I vibe with, but the left isn’t synonymous with communism or even marxism.

And there’s also idealism, of course - there’s plenty of that everywhere on the Internet.

My view of the left is that they want an infra that’s more aligned with the EU or Scandanavia.

That’s definitely not communism. NK is communist, and there are very few people who want NK.
