Everyone knows Marriott.
Oh look, more American overreach. This is obviously some FBI pawn doing as told.

Good way to trash your reputation.

Just stop accepting new guests and work things out with the techies.

What about their legal requirement to deliver what was paid for?
Also since when is dang not an American? Maybe he wasn't born there, idk. But he clearly is American.

U-Boot is pretty cool, I like how scriptable it is.
Sure.

> The sentence that crossed the line egregiously was: "I understand it's difficult for you as an American to realize that other countries exist and are just as valid as America".

This is actually me being emphatic. I know Americans are raised to believe they're special, most of them never leave their country, and so it is difficult for them to see things from a normal point of view.

Now go moderate the rest of that thread. Plenty of heinously offensive comments you seem to have missed.

Quite simple: Actual human review that works with the developers.

But this costs money, and the lack of it is proof google doesn't really care about user security. They're just lying.

Apple? Not interested in being a good internet citizen? Say it ain't so!

Being allowed to contribute to open source is a privilege, not a right.

You could also just pay for it.

Feel free to clarify what you think is abusive about this. It's a simple observation of fact, and if you were to read the rest of this thread objectively you'd see it is accurate.

Why are you not yelling at the people hurling insults at the UK? Is it because you're American and this hurt your feelings so it's bad, but hurting others their feelings is fine?

The Americans are literally threatening violence and war in this thread. It's utterly insane. But I see you didn't bother to talk down to them.

The Americans take the same stance. See their obsession with copyright for example. You know, up until American companies violated those laws en masse in the name of profit and suddenly nobody cared.
Oh look, Americans threatening violence against their allies again. Yawn.
I understand it's difficult for you as an American to realize that other countries exist and are just as valid as America. The Americans have been demanding other countries comply with their internet laws for decades now.

It's amusing to see how you can't even seen to fathom that it goes both ways.

Good to read the law is effective in curtailing the behavior of Americans.

Funny how upset they're getting about this. I suppose they're used to telling the rest of the world what to do instead.

The talk about their constitution is also pretty amusing. Don't they have more important violations, such as descending into a dictatorial state, to worry about? But no, I suppose protecting 4chan and a forum encouraging the mentally unwell to kill themselves is more important.

This coming from an American is utterly hilarious and completely out of touch. Really, it explains a lot.

Isn't this just docker with extra steps?
Which one is that? I want one without cloud and valetudo seems like a pain. Buying an 800 dollar vacuum only to risk bricking it right away is scary. I'd buy a simple one for $80 right away though.
So could you. You're already using one labour saving device, why not another?
Any reason you didn't just call your GP or even 911?
To scam people? No.

If the violent, untrustworthy, Americans choose to go to war with their former allies over some data then that's their choice. Better than just giving these warmongers everything they want.
Re:Microsoft Can't Keep EU Data Safe from US Authorities on Wednesday November 05, 2025 @02:32PM (#45826861)
They can assert what they want, they have no way to enforce it.

Pretty funny you're jumping straight to warfare. This proves why Americans cannot be trusted.

In any case, it's better for me that the Americans will need to start a war with the EU to get at my data instead of just giving it to them.

Re:Microsoft Can't Keep EU Data Safe from US Authorities on Wednesday November 05, 2025 @02:23PM (#45826770)
The US has no authority whatsoever over a foreign parent company. The US subsidiary also has no access to "foreign" data.
Don't forget "apple approved my app already but is now blocking bugfixes until I overhaul the entire thing to appease this new reviewer"

And then repeat that every few months.

They're the ones selling the gambling games. They didn't create them, but they do sell them.
All it did was embolden Google to start locking down as well.
> Here in EU they did allow third party stores

Hardly. They did everything they could to make it completely pointless. Your apps still need to be blessed by apple and you still need to pay them. It's embarrassing the EU is allowing this sham.

This is just so funny.
