Thank you for the through explanation! That was very helpful

Could you explain why this is bad? Software patents aren’t a great thing, are they?

The problem is likely the many references to the Durban Conference: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Conference_against_Racism_2001

From the article:

NGO repudiations of the NGO Forum’s Declaration

edit

Several NGOs, including Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International, and the Lawyers Committee for Human Rights, disassociated themselves from the language of the NGO Forum’s Declaration that dealt with Israel and with Jews.[5][26] The Palestinian Solidarity Committee of South Africa reportedly distributed copies of the antisemitic forgery The Protocols of the Elders of Zion.[27]

It’s a bitch to use with 1Password. I didn’t experience downsides otherwise so far.

Just don’t do it in Germany or you’ll end up paying a lot more

I now see the following: „Gulf of Mexico (Gulf of America)“

I’m in Europe. Yes, there’s a version per country (or at least there are multiple versions), but this change is also made for places that will continue to call it Gulf of Mexico. Its annoying.

While reading your comment I was wondering if you’re working for the company I’m working for. So many similarities.

But there are no promotions on our firm, so no.

Take a few days rest, mate. It’s not worth it.

I’ve never heard that before in my life

What I don’t get about seedboxes: you give the provider both your personal data as well as show them what you’re doing illegally. That seems like a bad idea. What am I missing?

What does it do? Could you explain?

Did you read the article?

Breaking up monopolies is a good thing, and Google arguably holds too much power. Chromium is being used in 70% of browsers, and the decision how to implement and develop web standards are all in the hand of one for profit company, which had little interest in keeping things open and accessible (and private).

A quote from this Register article sums it up nicely:

What we are forced to assume in turn is that Chrome is built by the professional developers working for an ad agency with the primary goal of building a web browser that serves the needs of other professional developers working for the ad agency’s prospective clients.

Only thing I use Google for is Maps, and by now that would be easy to replace.

Sure, that’s a fair opinion. I just don’t share it. I wouldn’t have known about this video in the first place. Also I don’t care to use AI summaries.

Coincidentally I was also a fan of the described functionality on batteries and I have used it gladly and without hurting myself. So that clearly makes me different from the vast majority of people here in the comments.

I may have been just as happy with the original article the video is based on, who knows. But since that wasn’t shared here I preferred this one over the video.

Tbf I hate watching videos, so I found it useful.

This is dumb propaganda on so many levels. Zionism isn’t a religious movement. Israelis are not primarily white. This equation is just dumb af

If you don’t mind me asking: what is this for? Is it a hobby? I have no idea if any of this, just somehow came across your post

It’s okay to say lazy. Not everything is ADHD. You’re just lazy.

When you said storage room I immediately had the mental image of a barrel falling on worf on my mind. Did it happen that often?
