Doesn’t even have to be an instance.
Custom code that runs the pubsub protocol… Without publishing anything.
Everything is open.
Unless instance admins find the pubsub instance suspicious and defederate it, at which point it won’t be able to receive posts/comments
That thing solved with NATO oversight?
I knew NATO was a good thing. They should get more countries involved in NATO
Well, I guess the EU is 26/27th decent.
However, the EU is working towards defunding (I guess pushing-to-change, aka punishing) shitty members.
https://theconversation.com/why-has-the-eu-stripped-hungary-of-1-billion-the-latest-confrontation-explained-246614
So yeh, the EU isn’t perfect. It’s working on it, and it is making progress.
Nice when an oversight body isn’t corrupted
As an augmentation, the ability to spot and track objects visually would be amazing.
But then planes just have to fly above 10k ft, and pretty much guaranteed cloud cover.
Echolocation is specifically audio based.
Lidar is a similar technique, but much more accurate and precise.
Project a grid of laser beam, read when the laser bounces back, you know the distance to that part of the grid.
Valid
Killing Donny wouldn’t change much, tho.
America has shown it wants Donald or a Donald substitute.
Project 2025 is now Americas playbook.
Other countries changing military suppliers isn’t going to change back to america for 10-15 years (hell, maybe even longer, I dunno what the service life of a jet platform is).
The risk that has surfaced of “America has an off switch” - even just the potential risk of rumors of an off switch - means all those military assets are useless when America elects unhinged leaders that are willing to subvert democratic process in order to run their playbook.
And America has shown it is willing to do that. Even prefers to do that
No, from the UK.
I don’t understand how the US can want to have 100% paper ballots, but ban voting booths (which to me means, in person voting). This essentially leaves postal voting.
And USPS has been repeatedly targeted by right wing politics.
What kind of paper voting system is left without in-person, if USPS is compromised?
President Donald Trump on Friday [21st Feb 2025, I think] said he may put the U.S. Postal Service under the control of the Commerce Department in what would be an executive branch takeover of the agency, which has operated as an independent entity since 1970. https://apnews.com/article/trump-postal-service-usps-what-to-know-672db6c590837411ca3ba36966e374e1
So paper votes only, no voting booths… Leave postal votes. And the government controls the postal service.
What else is there?
If the postal service isn’t a political target, then post voting is excellent.
Ballots can be mailed weeks in advance, they can be collected by a deadline, they can then be counted.
But we’ve seen Americas right wing go after USPS, so - quite frankly - I don’t see any way it is as fool-proof as in-person voting.
Voting day needs to be a holiday, or employers need to give PTO for voting.
None of which will happen.
Voting booths will be banned.
USPS will be compromised/defunded to the point it can’t carry out it’s duties.
Only the people that can schedule the time with Electoral College personnel will be able to actually register a vote.
You know, I have no idea.
I think it depends on the linked-to servers.
If the server thinks the Lemmy thumbnail/summary generator is a bad bot, it will not return a thumbnail. If it’s actually a decent web server, I think the Lenny instance will generate & distribute a thumbnail automatically and attach a summary.
I presume this is handled by the posts hosting instance.
I’ve noticed some sites that get linked to don’t have a thumbnail and some sort of “prove you aren’t a bit” subtext/caption.
And others work fine
I don’t think ships have any collision avoidance systems, like aircrafts do.
And I don’t think ships are actively monitored and instructed, like aircrafts are.
Seems hard to believe that a ship travelling at 16 knots was unable to avoid a stationary ship.
However, further down the BBC post, there is an image of all the ships in the area at the time of the collision.
If it’s busy, I’d imagine the crew were alert. Equally, they might have been concentrating on something else.
They had also just left port, so perhaps there was a change of shift/watch.
There are a lot of laws regarding maritime navigation to avoid collision.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Regulations_for_Preventing_Collisions_at_Sea
Perhaps the cargo ship did not realise the tanker was anchored, and assumed they would move out of the way.
Ultimately, everything is too recent to be able to understand what happened.

Maybe it’s as suggested in the article. That the rebate is going to be paused, so Tesla is trying to farm it. You know, for fraud.
But this could also have other motivations behind it.
Like Tesla buying Tesla’s in Canada as some sort of “people aren’t boycotting Tesla. Infact, there has been an INCREASE in sales in Canada. Clearly Tesla’s are trying to be cancelled, and clearly Canada wants to be part of the US” kinda fraud?
As in, trying to bolster Tesla stock. And trying to meddle with another country’s politics.
Only the fucking idiot muskrat applied for government funded rebates on all of them?
Cause that’s what this is. Fraud.
I looked up the Minsk agreement on Wikipedia.
The agreement failed to stop fighting.[5] At the start of January 2015, Russia sent another large batch of its regular military.[2] Following the Russian victory at Donetsk International Airport in defiance of the Protocol, Russia repeated its pattern of August 2014, invaded with fresh forces and attacked Ukrainian forces at Debaltseve, where Ukraine suffered a major defeat, and was forced to sign a Package of Measures for the Implementation of the Minsk Agreements, or Minsk II,[2]
dot dot dot
Amid rising tensions between Russia and Ukraine in early 2022, Russia officially recognised the DPR and LPR on 21 February 2022.[9] Following that decision, on 22 February 2022, Russian President Vladimir Putin declared that the Minsk agreements “no longer existed”, and that Ukraine, not Russia, was to blame for their collapse.[10] Russia then launched a full invasion of Ukraine on 24 February 2022.
Maybe I’m misunderstanding this, or skim reading it wrong. Seems like Russia forced an agreement, then called it invalid when Ukraine stuck to the terms.
https://ecfr.eu/article/ukraine-russia-and-the-minsk-agreements-a-post-mortem/
This convenient myth was finally dispelled in the period between 21 February 2022, when Putin recognised the independence of the so-called people’s republics of Donetsk and Luhansk, and 24 February 2022, when the full-scale invasion began. This was a radical clarification by Russia: in taking responsibility for its military action, violating Ukraine’s territorial integrity, and denying its neighbour’s sovereignty, Russia ceased acting according to the paradigm of frozen conflicts and shifted its goals – from the control of Ukraine’s political trajectory through local proxies to territorial appropriation and imperial restoration.
Yeh, so Russia wasn’t happy. And instead of going “this isnt in the spirit of the agreement” decided to botch an invasion, and is now targeting civilian targets.
Jog on pal.
Shits way past “local elections”.
Ukraine isn’t targeting civilians.
Russia is.
Amongst other “fun” things.

For balance, here are some Ukraine war crimes:

Seems sparce. I’m sure its western media bias. No doubt President Comrade Musk will buy Wikipedia and fix the inaccuracies in reporting.
Then, once we are all done denying facts, we can safely move on with our lives.
Oh, sorry. Of course. It’s not a false flag.
But it’s zelenskys fault that Russia invaded, and that russia fired missiles on a civilian targe t.
Or, it’s a military target? Without children and civilians? And no volunteer aid organisations staying there? Just purely military.
No, I presume there were military personnel sheltering there as well, amongst the children and foreign citizens.
There weren’t military personnel there? No, there were. It was a command post!
Fuck off.
Russia attacked US citizens
Or say that Zelensky attacked the hotel in a false flag in order to pressure for support
Id recommend Proxmox on a cheap n100 nuc.
Makes it easy to spin up VMs, take snapshots of them, tinker and break them, then roll back to the snapshot
No.
Users that do not decrypt their storage lose their storage permanently.
Users that decrypt their storage get to continue to use it, but it isn’t not encrypted.
No encryption is broken.
Users are swapping convenience for privacy. (Or privacy for convenience? Whichever way that is).
Broken implies it is unusable or useless. As in “Apples encryption is unusable”.
This is not the case. It’s not broken. Users are given the option to remove the encryption to be able to continue to use the storage.

Predicting an impact 2500 days in the future - taking into account n-body physics while also trying to measure the objects current position and velocity as accurately as possible - is an impressive feat of science & technology.
I imagine this is going to change year on year until we have to train drillers to be astronauts.
I feel like “look at twitter” is probably enough of a defence to decline president musk.
It would probably need to be wordier for court proceedings.
Boooo
