Whoa, global goals... hmm... that reminds me of something... :-)

In these discussion threads I always see people mixing call/gps functionality (which is genuinely useful, especially in case of an emergency, and not addictive) with social media. You can have one without having the other. Instagram didn't come with your phone, you installed it. So, don't.

You just have to look at the pictures of the article to see that they have money.

Believe me if you have the first thing the latter things will eventually follow. At least in the EU "universally mandated" has been a reality for a very long time.

You are being too benevolent. You think progress in bureaucracy is being resisted because those people are "old and unfamiliar", but they actively resist it because their paycheck depends on it. They know if they get fired they are completely useless in the job market.

You cherrypicked examples where there's a physical element to the transaction.

What exactly does WhatsApp assemble? Or where do I get customer service in person for WhatsApp?

I think the real question here is why did a powerful media company like Twitter hire an "Ahmad Abouammo". Weren't they just asking for this to happen? What about due diligence? Are they complicit?

>monitoring and conveying confidential and sensitive information that could be used to identify and locate Twitter users of interest to the Saudi Royal Family

Whatever way he was hired, that should be investigated too.

>I am vaccinated but

Funny how this sounds like you have some special kind of keycard to be allowed to say what you said.

>The press is doing their patriotic job protecting United States government and US citizenry dutifully through its thorough reporting as given by the 1A.

Now I'll wait for someone else to bite on this.

>Gil free python would break a lot of oss packages written with the C API that are only thread safe because if the GIL.

So make it a runtime option.

It's getting tiresome that python performance is suffering because some can't be bothered to write thread-safe software. In 2022.

Medium has been the villain for quite some time now.

But not so fast about Substack... they recently started showing modals.

In the end, running a website costs money. What are you going to do.

Whatever Electron supports I suppose.

Most people who have jobs do not work because they want to but because they are forced by economic circumstances. Should we abolish work?

What is an "open source phone network"? I've never heard of such thing existing.
