The United States’ takeover of TikTok was never about privacy or “national security”. If that were the case, legislation would’ve been passed to prevent ALL apps from using manipulative algorithms and unnecessarily collecting personal data a long time ago.
The elites don’t really care about protecting average people. Only themselves.

Trump flouts the rules. What happened to our checks and balances? washingtonpost.com/opinions/20…
For decades, the Israeli military has embraced an unofficial motto as its guiding principle: the most moral army in the world.
The slogan has been championed by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Israeli defense ministers, and Israeli military commanders who claim their soldiers’ actions are essentially above reproach.

“The announcement on autism was the saddest display of a lack of evidence, rumors, recycled old myths, lousy advice, outright lies, and dangerous recommendations by anyone in authority in the world claiming to know anything about science that I have ever witnessed. And that’s saying something, since I’m 76 years old. Among other things, I watched Trump gurgle on about taking bleach during Covid.”
— Arthur L. Caplan, head of the Division of Medical Ethics at the NYU Grossman School of Medicine.

Every week, she tries to raise $500 so she can feed her family of six.

Please help if you can.
Thank you!

Large organizations and corporations moving to open source is a great thing.
If they have budget, they should still contribute and "pay" for the open source software they use.
Edit: Adding in this key quote as a positive example:
"Austria isn't just replacing Microsoft software. Unlike typical public-sector and corporate migrations, Austria's military has heavily invested in LibreOffice development itself. The armed forces have been funding the creation of new features and improvements that are now included in public releases. These additions, ranging from improved slideshow editing to better handling of pivot tables, have been rolled into the latest version of LibreOffice."

Wot’s going on here?
We left some stuff wrapped up in a *blue* tarp on the back paved area for a bit over a year. We have some medium sized back birds who live in our garden and spend most of their time digging up the mulch and making a general mess of the garden, spreading the mulch everywhere we would rather it wasn’t.
Anyway, these birds made a nest on the ground (centre of the photo) and then scoured the neighbourhood for *blue* things where upon they thieved the things and flew it back to put in front of the the nest … more or less in line with where the blue tarp had been.
Are these birds religious? Is this some sort of tribute to the (now removed) blue tarp? Who knows! They have been at it for a couple of years now. I have even found a blue lid from a spray can (like a can of WD40 or something), so they must be really trying hard to fly with cumbersome (and - for them - heavyish) objects.
BTW, the Blue Tongue lizard has now returned to the garage after what I assume was a winter nap. It scared the crap out of me the other day when it appeared at my feet (for the first time since it’s winter sojourn) when I was not expecting it. The lizard is notoriously camera unfriendly, but I will try and get a shot of it at some point.

The linked forum post is about the recovery shell which requires physical access to an unencrypted volume. If you have this kind of access then of course you can take over the system, either using the boot loader or a live disc. This is supposed issue is a complete nothing.

Bad Religion are definitely among my favorite bands. I think I discovered them when I was 14 or 15,
and after listening to “We're Only Gonna Die” (the first song is always very important),
I remember I wore out the version of “80-85” that I managed to get hold of
(“How Could Hell Be Any Worse?” was impossible to find at the time,
and it was already difficult to find “80-85” in italian province).
Then, with the internet, it became easier to access everything, so I found these live and demos version,
which I love.
Thanks for everything, Bad Religion, the band with a mission.
