A hungry population is easier to direct in violence. Tell them who the enemy is, who the reason for their problems is, and they will focus on that hatred and prejudice. Blame others for the problems.
That’s what the republicans have been doing, and they will continue to do it.
That’s the kind of control I think the commenter meant.
Right now we’re easy to control because we’re afraid to lose what we’ve got.
I’ve started using SearXNG. Are these better?
I mean for the service to block them or eliminate the troll accounts. Not for the user to do so.
Can they not just block these? I get that this is a never ending battle against troll farms and the like, but is BSky already falling to the “more engagement is better and we don’t care if it’s nefarious engagement” trap already?
Couple that with this:
I can hear the prices falling for consumers already.

Sorry it’s a Fox link, but it was the top result.
Basically the dumbass is knee-jerk undoing everything Biden did because it was done by democrats, and of course doing it without thinking about the results.
So kill the CHIPS act because Biden bad, and slap tariffs on random shit because of something someone told him once that foreign stuff = bad and it makes him look strong, but never actually think that harming your own technology production + jacking up prices on your imported tech might be a shitty combo for your citizens and businesses.
As opposed to all the leaking oil pipelines, petroleum fires, leaking methane, etc? No, this place has a pretty poor track record, but let’s not make it “the industry”.
Only if you ignore all the leaking pipelines, oil refinery fires, leaking methane, oil spills, coal emissions, etc…
Better way for the dictator in chief to directly control the government with his latest whim and completely skip congress or any other people actually in charge.
It’s really rampant, especially in games that have aim assist and controllers/controller support on PC. It’s so insanely obvious when someone is using an aim assist device…i.e. no bullet spread on a small automatic gun and hitting like a laser beam at 60 meters vs someone without has a ton of missed shots at that range. Their KDR is magnitudes of order different. They ruin a match. Unfortunately looking to get them banned doesn’t do anything, seeing as using game features buil-in by the devs is a big gray area. It’s not an aimbot or ESP, it’s using and abusing the provided aim assist.
I really doubt it. Trump just did the obvious, grabbed the low hanging fruit, and contradicted the Biden administration because that’s all he can do. No conspiracy needed; that would afford trump forethought and cunning he isn’t capable of. He can’t think past his next Big Mac or tweet.
Iranian hostages anyone? Look how trump saved the day. He gives them their bread and circuses.
ITT: there is evil in all of us.
Yeah, I’d tend to agree. The war is digital and economic. Countries are hacking each other’s infrastructure and commercial systems, mass propaganda and spying with troll farms, tiktok and even hardware. Plenty of fighting with sanctions, tariffs, bans of sales of technology.
Fighting for land right now is really unnecessary, however depending on how well humanity survives climate change I’d expect to see some arguments going in to drilling and mining places like Greenland, the arctic and antarctic. China is already setting up shop in Antarctica.
We are also all tied together economically in so many different ways that a war between major powers would be economically devastating for everyone before the first shot is fired, particularly for the countries that ceded most of their production to other countries that might be hostile in war.
We’re still being forgotten.
The boomers held on to power for such a long time that X never really got a generational chance to change things or sit in the driver’s seat. They were left waiting in the wings for their turn. The millennials were pretty pissed off for a lot of reasons and made a lot of noise, so they overshadowed X, and they’ve been maneuvering for their opportunities in the driver’s seat.
So basically X got mostly left out. Doesn’t mean we couldn’t fuck things up, though. We were the biggest trump voters by generation.
Fold it in half end to end, not down the middle.
AMD: “Go for it!”
So yeah, doing business in the US, getting paid by US people, subjects them to some US regulations. Hence, they are affected by US domestic policy and politics.
This is the point of this thread that you are arguing against by making up scenarios for the customer or Proton to avoid US entanglements. The point of this thread is that yes, Proton is subject to US law regarding money made in the US. End of story.
If you want to create hypotheticals where Proton excludes US customers or coulda done this and coulda done that, whatever man. You can make up whatever you want to be right. The question has been answered.
Oh. Making something illegal illegal again? That’ll be effective.
