No.
Here’s the difference between real genocide and appropriation of the term.
Genocide is actual when a third of a people is annihilated just because they are not liked.
“Genocide” is an appropriated term when the population of the people supposedly “genocides” against actually INCREASES after “genocide”. After said people is warred upon after they attempted a real genocidal annihilation attack on its neighbors. The type of attack they are used doing. The type of attacks that allowed them to grow from a little tribe near Mecca to control most of the Middle East.

Of course. Instead let’s call TikTok propaganda “critical thinking”, virtue signal and be content how “smart” and “moral” we are.

It is entirely possible to inject (unrelated) wifi frames while being associated to a BSS without violating the existing 802.11 standards. That’s why Apple is able to implement AWDL on standard compliant wifi hardware.
However the path towards this type of interoperability would likely go through additional standardization via IEEE 802.11* and the Wi-Fi alliance. At which point Apple will need to implement and support the new standards. There is no need to reverse engineer AWDL to meet the new European interoperability requirements. What is needed is for wifi chipset OEMs to implement such standardization. Something pretty routine of them.
It can be expected that Apple will also maintain the proprietary AWDL in order to support their legacy devices.

Oh, and let’s not forget the politicians like Pelosi, the Clintons and many other top Democratic Party politicians, repeatedly engaged in insider trading of stocks, often times using classified information, for multi million dollars profits. Almost never investigated. Practically never convicted.

It’s pretty easy now days on Linux. Including AirPrint bridging to legacy (even real old) printers.

Appreciate the fact checking. You are correct. It is first and foremost jobs cut in the US.
But his reptilian mind can’t handle the facts.

Reason for Iran war is a fanatic Shiite regime on the verge of obtaining nuclear weapons. Same regime that vowed time after time to erase Israel. 100% justified war. Should’ve been done earlier in fact.

Magnetic tapes? Super cool!
What are you using them for if one may ask?
Very curious.

That’s what happens when IRGC thugs hide in schools. Just like their Hamas terrorist lapdogs.
Where were all those virtue signaling out criers when them IRGC slaughtered over 32,000 Iranian citizens, including students, in a couple of days?
