Petition to change the community logo to Bert? :D
One of President Donald Trump’s top officials has warned European allies hesitant about working with Elon Musk’s satellite Internet company that they needed to choose between US and Chinese technology.
Oh they can go fuck themselves and choose between Chinese Huawei and Korean Samsung for their terrestrial cellular networks, thank you very much. Ericsson and Nokia are European and we have technology required for low orbit direct to mobile cell networks.
Want to piss them off even more? Remind them that they have sold Alcatel Lucent and Bell Labs to Nokia.
It already started happening before LLM AI. Have you heard the joke that we were teaching our parents how to use printers and PCs with mouse and keyboard and now we have to do the same with our children? It’s really not a joke. We are the last generation that have seen it all evolving before our eyes, we know the fundamentals of each layer of abstraction the current technology is built upon. It was natural process for us to learn all of this and now suddenly we expect "fresh people" to grasp 50 years or so of progress in 5 or so years?
Interesting times ahead of us.
Yes I agree. I just wanted to point out that articles like linked should not be immediately interpreted as "oh noo recession". They move labor wherever it is cheaper, Eastern Europe, Ukraine, India, or China in case of manufacturing, that’s all.
Privileges of being a megacorp?
While at the same time opening new positions for Pixel teams in Poland, for example.
Ooh, that’s interesting. But I assume there is nothing stopping me from using both quux AND alternative routes to nodes (via meshtastic for instance) at the same time? I don’t have to go fully one way or another?
I wonder how hard and if feasible at all it would be to have something like an email over NNCP over meshtastic network. Total independence and resilience.
You want an uncomfortable truth? You don’t have proper safety regulations. First step - stop using symmetric headlights.
Thank you. And sorry for the dumbass that downvoted you (the guy just spend a few minutes of his life writing this, you do not have to agree with him to appreciate the effort…)
I said this in my other comment but in indirect way - I would love for some French lemmings to chime in and describe how they portray their president. Because what I see from the perspective of an outsider (but eu citizen) - he looks like a great leader with unmatched opportunity to became one due to his country strength and position.
I don’t know how much French like their president, but his recent efforts to reunite the EU and engagement in international affairs are at least admirable. I’m fine if it this in the end means billions for France’s military industry - hard to disagree with him…
Guy sounds bought. He’s claiming the progress has stopped and solution will never be found. That’s not what history teaches us.
This time one right side of the history. Let’s hope.
I was a Debian guy for years now. Running on all my servers and virtual machines, but never got to be satisfied with it enough to “format Windows” out of my main computer. Until one day I discovered Aurora and relatives. That’s it, that’s the endgame for me. Literally everything works out of the box including support for legacy Nvidia cards, g-sync, scaling etc. and I can fully understand and like their design decisions (hell, with brew it will be just like having a Mac). I’m done with Windows before this year ends.
Your last two paragraphs summarized it all perfectly: majority of us had become sheeple who are happy to give up their rights and free will to live a comfortable life and let someone else decide for them. The only resistance they show is by posting on social media - getting up and actually doing something for a better good is too difficult. Including doing their own goddamn coffee! Even buying an automatic coffee machine is paying for itself at this rate in less than half a year! And the same majority decides about our future in elections!
You do know, that Poland has been recorded to perform pushbacks on its borders?
Yes, I live here.
And now you can guess why people dont want to enter the country through official ways.
No, I don’t, it has nothing to do with pushbacks. Pushbacks were for those who were trying to cross the border illegally in the first place.
Also a lot of refugees dont want to seek asylum in Poland, but in other EU countries so entering through official ways might be suboptimal for them.
Suboptimal?! You know what, tell me your address. I will steal your car because earning money to buy myself my own is suboptimal for me. And maybe we also should provide free healthcare to poor Americans in Europe because them paying for their own is suboptimal for them.
Crossing a border of any EU country is synonymous with entering EU as a whole. Polish border is EU border.
disregards the situation those refugees
They have chosen to enter Belarus or Russia, they were given protection on Russian and Belarusian territory already, why not stay there if this is only about survival? They are no longer refugees when entering Poland, they are migrants and as such are no longer protected under the same rules. And this is what you are describing, choosing a destination country not to escape harm in the first place but to seek one with better social benefits. In this scenario I see no reason for them to forcefully enter EU illegally without following our laws: again, they were already allowed to enter Russian and/or Belarusian territory and have escaped the immediate threat if they really are refugees.
Now, if we talk about Ukrainian refugees, I did not hear any of them complaining about pushbacks or being deported or about mines being deployed on our border. You know why? Because they are civilized people who know how to behave and how to properly cross a border.
And we provided help for almost a million of them.
Real refugees who try to come into the EU are welcomed to enter through designated border crossings.
Border crossings are still open, not mined.
A czy Wy też zauważyliście więcej samochodów z nielegalnymi światłami na polskich drogach? Pomijam oślepiające reflektory, ale czerwone kierunkowskazy używane zamiennie ze światłami stop. Nagrywać takich i z numerem rejestracyjnym na policję czy co? Przecież te samochody nie powinny przejść przeglądu, więc diagnosta może za to odpowiadać, a co dopiero kierowca.
Once upon a time I stumbled on a tool called “fsfreeze”. Might be useful.
