Have they actually said why? That post doesn’t cover it.

Isn’t the easy way to work around this by building 2x25MW data centres next to each (down the road, a mile away, next county, whatever) and just ensure they operate as 1 with high speed dark fibre?

It mentions this GDID is sent in telemetry. So this guy kept using a hosted proxy, meaning his egress IP was always changing accessing different services, but everytime his Windows 11 machine was sending back telemetry (which included his GDID) they were logging the IP address he was appearing from (the proxy) - so they were able to track and identify him.

I think they’ve been running around in Milton Keynes, UK for a few years now.

If you host your own DB of users and passwords you are a target. Offloading it to as many wide-spread oauth providers as possible is a smart move.

The thing is, he will not care nor probably even see that post.

It is not in the narcissist’s playbook to review replies.

He will continue to fire and forget messages on social platforms because 1) he gets attention 2) it doesn’t mean anything.

Genuinely, I believe that if you were a US ally and slandered him on social media he may make a passing comment, but he would slander you like it was originally his idea later about something completely different and the US would carry on doing what it was doing.

The US sees itself as S tier, and at maximum fellow NATO allies as B tier maybe.

Unless they kick the US out, invoke sanctions, attack, etc. he and they just don’t care. Social media is a tool to rile up people who can’t think objectively, not a place to discuss or retaliate.

I dislike this timeline too.

Thought I was having a moment.

Internal thought occurred: You really are a grammar Nazi.

The UK has RRP as an equivalent, but they address the problem differently really. MRP is stop price gauging I think, whereas RRP is there to incentivise retailers to offer discounts to lure more customers.

We also have co-op’s that run supermarkets and banks, but they compete against private companies.

I think Europe is fairly social in its services (healthcare, pensions, etc.).

ever hear of a little thing called the House of Lords?

They lost their hereditary status yesterday 🥳

Renault seem to offer quite a few these days that are fairly small.

…Pretty sure it was offered 20 years ago in Scotland, a friend’s son was doing it.

Rise of the Mandarin-elite?

I’m fairly ignorant of the US, so I read this as:

Republican David Scott, a Georgia Democrat…

and was slightly confused.

Hear me out…

How do we know it wasn’t a peaceful person leaving a hand written note begging for no more datacentres, when their nemesis, Dr Datacentre, drove past and started shooting at him?

Fair point, well made.

You get that there is a pattern of shitty historical revisionists that bring up “Muslim slavery” to minimize US slavery? Which you just did?

Sorry, you’re going to have to clarify this for me. 1) Which revisionists? 2) Why is “muslim slavery” different to “slavery”? What did I do?

Islam is not a world view, what? It’s a religion that has a long history (that a large part includes slavery).

Europe, as implied by the very first post, was a large part of the North American slave trade. However, the UK effectively ended the African slave trade, the first I believe, long before the US did, which is why I mentioned it.

My understanding segregation in the US was actually about white people keeping their kids away from integrated schools (which is a nuance, it wasn’t black school vs white school - and a lot of it was in the south). Slavery is NOT a colour based system. Don’t get me wrong, it clearly ended up being one based on the the US outcome, but we are talking about Human slavery, it’s been happening our entire civilisation, not just the 250 years or so of US existance.

The impact, diminished the impact of it.

What does this mean?

it wasn’t all “Western powers kidnap countless innocent people and move them around the world so they can work and die as the inhuman beasts the Western man think they are”. They’re completely different things, and this attitude is at the core of the American soul, because it’s at the core of the Anglo Saxon soul, because it’s at the core of the Western soul (hence the resurgence of Nazi-adjecent movements and politicians in Europe nowadays, it can’t be just shaken off/waited out, they need an entire ideological change) and it’s the reason why Americans are so happy to bomb/okay with bombing innocents around the world.

I’m sorry, but i think you and i disagree on what a slave is. A human being that is bought and sold. i don’t know how else to word it. It is not Anglo-Saxon, Nazi or any other people or political type.

Slavery is not a Western idea. Look up Korea and it’s world record breaking length of slavery. Or how slaves in Africa were supplied by West Africans.

This is not a Western Idea. Please stop working it as such. In-fact, fuck it, stop calling it Western. It’s just people. Horrible people, from a long time ago. Taking advantage, the same as other people were.

Apologies, but I don’t understand what the colour of skin has in relation to this post?
