It says that it continued into the Biden era as well.
The military program started under former President Donald Trump and continued months into Joe Biden’s presidency, Reuters found – even after alarmed social media executives warned the new administration that the Pentagon had been trafficking in COVID misinformation. The Biden White House issued an edict in spring 2021 banning the anti-vax effort, which also disparaged vaccines produced by other rivals, and the Pentagon initiated an internal review, Reuters found.
Happy cakeday. And yeah deescalation requires both parties to open to de-arm not only one of them.
Honestly though the best case scenario of how this all ends doesn’t really look great to me.
Either Russia loses the war, the government destabilizes, a power vacuum is formed which causes a power shift in a way likely to lead to more aggressive action in the future.
Or Russia wins the war, eyes other countries after it settles into Ukraine, NATO/US need to respond or else it sends the wrong message to other countries allied with them, and we head for WW3
Edit: There is also the idea of a stalemate and this just becomes a continuous war that doesn’t really end, but honestly I can’t see that being stable long term.
Doesn’t the US now have AI driven aircraft now? I think it is a little bit late for them to be courting them now.
I’d probably use it to terraform certain urban and suburban places to be more hospitable to wildlife and humans living together. Like guerilla gardening and banksy mixed together.
Funnily enough the person that made this video had a little controversy on the vape-o-nomics video when he was talking about how subscription services were bad but then immediately pivoted towards an ad read for a subscription service.
Eventually it was removed (without a comment talking about, it happened silently) but still this stuff reaches everyone eventually.
I was more thinking about all the services that rely on internet access to function. Like most economic systems would basically crash or grind to a halt.
There are a lot of products that don’t really need to be connected to the internet to do their job but are being connected anyways and would get bricked if access to the internet didn’t work. For example internet connected security cameras that don’t have cables connecting to where the data is being stored would be shot as well.
I mean the extent of the damage is really dependent on how the malware was spread which we don’t know yet so still mostly speculation on how damaging it could be.
So the attack happened in October 2023 but it was only revealed to the public now? Or is it that it was public back then but people didn’t pay attention?
Also the part where they say it has only ever happened as a precursor to a military invasion sort makes me think that this attack was some nation state practicing or signalling what they would do if they were in active cyber warfare which would be bad for the world if people in the competing nations didn’t have internet access, even if it was only for a day or two.
Nice when is the case being held?
Sounds more like anarchism than democracy.
Yeah I hope the best for you too. I was trying to lighten the mood but it is going to get dark before it gets any better.
Tough choice GB but I’ll go with option B. What do I win?
I can’t blame some New Caledonians for wanting to remain a part of France.
The people that are affected by the racism want to be independent and the people that aren’t want to stay a part of France. So the cost isn’t spread evenly, that’s why there is this huge problem in the first place.
Yeah from what I understand the situation there is complicated. A majority of the people that live in New Caledonia want to stay a part of France and that majority is made of mostly the Europeans and the other migrants.
However the Kanak are socioeconomically disadvantaged compared to the rest of the state and they feel like they aren’t being represented enough (due to a slim minority) on what they consider aboriginal land (even though other people have been living there for a long time too).
It is a weird situation.
Edit: added (due to a slim minority)
That’s a smaller population than I thought. I thought maybe a half a million at least but I guess not.

I guess my question is progress towards what? I mean no one’s gonna stop you its your own computer do what you want.
For me though it just isn’t worth the risk.
I mean sure but if you get hacked (which will eventually happen to someone if this is rolled out) just having the information stored in the first place becomes a risk. So I think it is better to not have it in the first place.
I’d go for a SearXNG instance, since its a meta search engine, its gonna work unless all other search engines shut down.
Also nice benefit of being FOSS and of no charge.
I just read your profile and can’t believe you guys have been on lemmy for 3 years. What made you guys join before lemmy got popular?
Ah well then I might try and find a license that doesn’t require attribution because I don’t care about that part. But the rest seem exactly what I’m going for.
Edit: grammar
I was able to solve the problem. Instead of downloading it from the Software Manager I installed it from the terminal instead.
When I installed it from the software manager it didn’t download one of the packages (org.gnome.platform/44) but when I did it from the terminal it did.
Thx though.
Edit: Yeah it was a flatpak.
