Reeder is not known for their quality. Or for their truthfulness, for that matter.

A couple years back Reeder has caught red handed with fake cameras (3 “cameras” on the back, but actually only one camera inside) on devices. They have first rejected it, then scrubbed their marketing collateral about it being a three-camera phone.

Most of Turkish cell producers sell shit stuff.

You decide on who you are and anybody telling you who you are can ef right off.

Hey, girl. I am 40, and cis-male. My experience might not be reflective, but I prefer to offer some support instead of just reading this and leaving it alone.

Please know that we all do feel down, we all feel trapped, and beaten, and defeated time to time. I had a very dark period in my 20s, only solved in my early 30s.

Please know that, even if that’s not apparent, there are people that do care about you. Try to be around them more often.

Sometimes financial insecurity creates these kind of thoughts, and if that’s the case I have no easy advice. But just know that, it is not failure if you decide to put a pause on your PhD, take care of yourself, then come back to it.

Sending love!

Technocracy is a form of government in which the decision-makers are selected based on their expertise in a given area of responsibility, particularly with regard to scientific or technical knowledge.

technocracy

I don’t think it means what you think it means. The concept you are looking for, probably, is “techno feudalism”.

I would read the hell out of this Wikipedia.

ACAB!

I am not sure if this is an orientalist/racist comment (no women in streets because it is the Middle East/they are Arabs) or a super based one (it is the stronghold of the more religious/jihadist groups).

I agree that humans are remarkably creative, and I agree “don’t have kids” is reasonable. But the “end of humanity” might come through this. However, I agree that we might be able to survive this. But please take it seriously. The whole climate crisis is a complex challenge by itself, and the politicization of it, along with the capitalistic interests, are complicating it further. We need urgent global action if we want humanity to survive.

Consider: Not all those billions of people will survive the sudden shift in climate. The breaking points in climate make everything super difficult to plan for. It is not just about finding higher ground that is climatic for humans, the whole agriculture will be a big problem. The climate will be so different from what we have right now, we are not perfectly sure how which crops would work where. We need globally aligned tests, knowledge sharing at the very best, along with all the action we need to take along with carbon emissions.

This challenge, is our biggest yet. We need a global, aligned, focused effort. But, we are far from it. The stress is causing conflict everywhere. Our international order is not up to coordinate this global effort, unfortunately. And if COVID-19 showed us what we can have on a global scale as a response, it means every nation state will turn inwards, try to fight against it by themselves while also fighting against everyone else. This problem is the crux. Our systems, our worldviews, our doctrine are not up for this fight ahead.

There is hope. But there is also a lot to despair about.

For clarity, he says:

Just like we entered Karabakh, just like we entered Libya, we might do similar to them.

Türkiye didn’t “enter” into either of those countries with its own troops. Rather they used Syrian mercs, and provided technical support, including “selling” their drones.

I don’t think what he means is sending in troops in this situation as well. Türkiye (or rather, maybe, Erdoğan’s ruling party) has existing strong ties with both Hamas and Hezbollah.

So my assumption on how this translates would be arms shipments to Lebanon. I don’t think they can get anything in to Gaza. And I don’t think either Lebanon or Palestine would welcome Syrian mercenaries.

But let’s see.

It is incredible. But only if you are into red meat. If you avoid meat, than it is horrible. You almost literally can’t find anywhere to eat.

Still good. My fave in Istanbul.

If in Ankara, Hacibaba.

If in Gaziantep, Kocak.

You can’t go wrong with those.

That was not the argument above, was it?

What kind of MFA you can use on a router, BTW?

I have a FIDO2 with Nfc, and it works. Is it convenient? No. Is it more secure? Yes.

A FIDO2 hardware key should do the trick. Not all MFA are based on communications.

Because they were “leaving money on the table” instead of getting it for their shareholders.

I’d read that!

If anyone is looking for, and if I am not mistaken, the above quote is from Parenti’s Blackshirts and Reds.

I mean, who doesn’t think the dynamics of the society and power structures of the system and the injustice of it all during their showers? I personally find myself thinking about these, almost exclusively, on my showers. Is it an age thing, maybe?
