taanegl, to news in An American tourist is arrested for smashing ancient Roman statues at a museum in Israel

I live in a port city and we have cruise tourism… maybe that’s the outlier.

Though I did read in the news once that Chinese tourists would go into people’s homes and even crash a funeral to take pictures…

That’s pretty fucked up.

taanegl, to news in Poland: Abortion Witch Hunt Targets Women, Doctors

I shall remember for the next conversation someone thinks anti-abortion is a good thing… I mean besides underground abortion parlors, the fostering of poverty, using it as a political tool against opposition and to persecute people for other reasons than abortion, which won’t apply to the rich because they can always fly mistresses to some permissive western country and have a painfree vacation at the same time.

Seems policies are carved out by idiots worldwide.

Oh no, centralising DNS and CDN traffic which are critical for the web and the internet into a single company is a bad idea?! Who knew!?!

I’m an equal opportunity racist. Fuck all y’all.

Scuse?

taanegl, to news in South Africa has filed a case at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) alleging that Israel is engaging in "genocidal acts" in Gaza

You do realise that the elites running South Africa are as white as snow, right? I’m not talking about the mouthpieces that pose as being representative of the people, but those who actually hold the bag, those who are in positions of privelige and power because of apartheid.

This is an issue, where people conflate governments, government bodies, oligarchs and elites in general with the people of a country. People dgaf about common South Africans, or indeed even common Russians or common Palestinians, but the second a branch pipes up like they did something, it’s gold stars and the drawing gets put up on the fridge?

Why? Why does a BRICS country, laden by corruption caused by apartheid, get glorified for opposing apartheid? It makes no goddamn sense. It’s like Putin looking for Nazis in Europe… bro, you didn’t need to cross borders for that.

I’m saying it’s performative, but whatever you say, chief.

taanegl, to linux in Linux Kernel of the Beast 6.6.6 exorcised by angelic 6.6.7 update

Install the stick up your ass immediately. It is the law.

taanegl, (edited ) to piracy in Is ext.to dangerous? It caused librewolf to ask for firewall permissions

It’s a firewall access prompt. In true MS fashion it won’t tell you what ports it is opening.

So by accepting you’re not giving the app any permissions like say read-write permission or administrative access, but if the app should have access to a port on the network.

Standard ports for the web are 443 (HTTPS, TCP) and 80 (HTTP, TCP). Torrents use other ports and a combination of TCP and UDP packets.

Search for “firewall” in the start menu. The firewall manager shows you all the ports an IPs that are allowed or blocked, along with ports and protocols.

taanegl, (edited ) to memes in It's a simple world view

No, that’s not it. You don’t need all the gunk I wrote about to have commerce. In fact, you can still have commerce without it.

You strike me as one of those guys who thinks capitalism defines the concept of money and markets.

taanegl, to news in China's Xi warns top EU officials not to engage in 'confrontation'

This, right here. As long as Xi and his government pines for the return to the “central kingdom”, Europeans are going to continue having flashbacks.

Don’t touch those borders.

taanegl, to linux in Fedora 40 Eyes The Ability To Boot Unified Kernel Images Directly

Omg yes, I hate those. I’m sitting here thinking it’s probably one of those simple things that scares people away from Linux…“Oh god, I see black text on white background. Abort, abort, ABORT!!”

taanegl, to science_memes in Teeth.

It’s still the best way of identifying animals and human bodies thank you very much. This is why 1/10 conspiratorial privacy advocates advise against going to the dentist. That’s Gary. He’s kookoo for cocoapuffs and also has really bad teeth.

taanegl, to risa in Get this shit out of here

He is political for heterosexual reasons.

taanegl, (edited ) to risa in DON'T TALK TO ME ABOUT PAIN [1000th post. Holy shit.]

TNG, season 3, episode 3… “The Survivors”.

Like my god. The gravity of that conclusion. It’s quite the Shakespearian tragedy. John Anderson just raids that role.
