Just passing through.
Amazing - I read skimmed through the Wikipedia site for Swatting and tried to search online for it happening other places, but I couldn’t watch a video while commenting so I didnt watch the source.
Fantastic case in point.
Still I struggle to understand how it’s possible.
How the fuck can Swatting be such a common thing in America. I have never heard about it in any other country.
(This is, of course, a rhetorical question. I know the answer is that American police is beyond incompetent.)
Edit: Oops, read comments below
The left didn’t get a majority, so it’s just parliamentary politics. It’s a bit unusual for France where the biggest party tends to form a government, but that’s a political norm we would have been happy to see broken had the Rassemblement national done as well as everyone expected it to.
What is more problematic is that the Cabinet is not allowed to vote in parliamentary matters, which Macron needed in order to marginalize the left. So he fired his Cabinet, so that they formally returned to parliament and could vote. The problem is, of course, that they don’t have any replacements, and their roles need to be filled. So now they’re voting in parlament while continuing their duties, giving the sleezebag Gabriel Attal the title “Outgoing Prime Minister Gabriel Attal”, but not changing anything of substance.
It’s not constitutional, but the courts let it slide, because they’re as terrified of the French left as Hindenburg was of the Social Democrats.
Fucking Macron.
He thinks he’s a stronghold against polarization. Well, this shit is why people flee to the far right and to the far left.
And treating the French left as a huge threat is plain bullshit. There are two groups who could legitimately feel threatened by the French left - billionaires, who would have to pay taxes to fund the public sector, and the French left itself, which is too incompetent to ever cooperate and would shoot itself in the foot within weeks.
Meanwhile, Macron keeps destroying the country while promoting himself as the second coming of centrist Christ. A conservative by any other name.
I think it’s a good sign - people are on here because they like it, not just because they are free software fanatics.
If nobody here had any Meta accounts I would be more worried, as it would mean we’re completely detached from whatever normal people are up to.
I guess they would want some cybersecurity software like Crowdstrike in either case? If so, this could probably have happened on any system, as it’s a bug in third party software that crashes the computer.
Not that I know much about this, but if this leads to a push towards Linux it would be if companies already wanted to make the switch, but were unwilling because they thought they needed Crowdstrike specifically. This might lead them to consider alternative cybersecurity software.
Yeah, it runs like a charm on my T14s. No that I’ve tried much else.
It just has real heavy JPEG.
Here’s a Reddit post for the Toyota cybertruck, which looks pretty legit to me. I also really love it - I can’t tell if it’s the fact that it’s an incredibly unconvincing camouflage, or that it looks like it’s trying to ruin Toyota’s good name by signing it on this piece of junk.
There’s also a picture of a Tesla with an Audi sticker going around, but that one was posted to Reddit two years ago so before Elon Musk went full nazi. I like that one because if I saw it in traffic I would have genuinely believed it was an Audi - I don’t give enough of a shit about modern car design to notice. Maybe until it starts making fart sounds or crashes into something because the driver is occupied with the gigantic dashboard iPad. But I digress.
Not everything on the internet is fake. There’s a bunch of Tesla owners out there, and a lot of them are looking for ways to communicate that driving their car is not an endorsement of fascism.
I’ve been considering buying some nice stickers that can achieve similar effects without destroying the car, and leaving them under the windshield wipers of parked Teslas around town with alongside a friendly note. I’m sure some people would be happy to use them.
