> The Arctic ocean is going to belong to the US and the sooner our local elite understands, the better they can negotiate and get their cut.
I don't know about that, the Russians are way ahead of everybody in developing their Arctic and ability to protect their interests there. As a Canadian, I, personally, would like us to join the Belt & Road. Going forward, my belief is that our interests are more aligned with Russia and China and the growing Global South. Let us get rid of our colonial shackles once and for all, eh?!

I don't agree, if that was true then CNN+ wouldn't have gone forward when the buyout was happening, because the new owners weren't happy that it did!

And all your browsing data is transferred to sites like Outbrain etc., quite the list, actually. I get it, a lot of work, and you don't work for free. I'd rather pay a nominal amount rather than the tracking.

I'm just getting into this myself and was struggling on how to use and why. I guess there are various uses for it, mine is primarily privacy. Think it would be good for activists in dangerous places?

Collabora engineer Alexandros Frantzis explains in detail the new features, saying that Vulkan support comes with window management handling, such as resizing or full-screen, and it can be used directly with or to implement Direct3D through either WineD3D or DXVK.

Well maybe read the article before commenting - Anybody that knows Greenwald's work, will know that he's a progressive. I too am a progressive, but some younger, intelligentsia progressives are employing 'cancel' culture in a way that is NOT progressive, but very often fascist. The old adage, two wrongs don't make a right, applies here.

That hasn't been my experience (using GMusic) — Only on Music Videos do I not get advertisements. But I get them on everything else on Youtube.
