So I think good luck for foss movement. Hopefully, forking that project won’t be illegal because otherwise foss will die

But where do you have information that it was russian state? There are many state actors capable of doing this. Just saying

Actually I’m interested how it looks legally ( it somebody cares about it at all ). Whether the Russian contributors could ask to revert their changes as they most likely never signed the contract to transfer their code copyrights. For sure it will have a big impact on foss because if you have at least one American and Russian contributors, you may get in the biggest shitshow. Additionally if I was considering now to become a contributors, I’d be wondering if it’s worthy at all to work for free and then to be banned no thanks for whole free work years

You described equipment for pretty much climber. You don’t have shops every corner in the mountains and sleeping overnight happens sometimes due to bad weather. Sub zero temperatures are the norm in the mountains

Lol, good that you pointed it out. The only real way is apparently only self hosting foss

Nothing interesting for 99% population. Tech blogging is the hardest stuff and most tech youtubers pretty much stopped contributing. What’s the point of sharing knowledge if any gamer on twitch has bigger audience than you maybe 200 - 300 live watchers and it’s the a good number of viewers for a very well known polish security researcher ( ex Google ). So you know why social media is going shit

Not bloated because it doesn’t have almost any features. No spaces, no threads, joining channels doesn’t work, wait until becomes as the predecessors. The performance improvement is negligible in my experience. It does simply depend on thr homeserver performance , not much on matrix version

fast

I noticed performance of matrix depends strongly on the server. Matrix.org is dead slow, I started using tchncs.de and even old ( somehow legacy ) element android is blazing fast

Element I’m not that sure, it’s so bloated that I’m surprised it works on mobile phones. Regarding matrix sure

So far, irc, jabber/ xmpp and matrix and plain old email with gpg :-)

I think the only still secure network is i2p. In there you don’t have the exit node

1. Being off-topic - i consider it spam
2. Obscene language if it does happen all the time
3. Hypocrites and people using ad hitlerum or playing on emotions arguments

Admitting by the ad company is for sure not a proof. So what is? If in courts, pleading is good enough for thr court

Hmm, it’s strange grey area. Sometimes piracy is the only way to make the book not disappear. There are niche, low circulation books and magazines which without piracy would disappear and became almost unavailable.

Sometimes the book is no longer in the print because of many reasons:

1. Author changed her / his mind and no longer wishes to publish it, at least in the original edition / version.
2. Copyrights are being taken over and the final copyright owner ceases to republish it even when paid.
3. Copyrights owner doesn’t know that his the owner of some books and it leads to the legal limbo.
4. Low circulated books & magazines don’t survive until the copyrights expire - owners of the books die and their next heirs believe the books / magazines are just garbage and burn it or throw it away.

Ethics & piracy is pretty strange combination and there is no easy answer for it

Lol. No, it’s only the public part. Germans disclosed the secret part which clearly stated what I said.

Soviets trained Nazi tank and artillery crew and provided them place for military training in times when they were forbidden to have heavy arms.

It’s a basic history material from the secondary school maybe

So show me the facts confirming murdering half a million people. Facts not lies. German POWs died not because of mass genocide action but because or harsh realities of Soviet gulags ( harsh living conditions, diseases and little food ).

If that’s what constitutes for you war crimes, even soviet prisoners would have to be called victims of war crimes.

It’s absurd of your terminology invention

You forget that Germans were allies of Soviet Union in the beginning. Yes, allies. Then the roles got reversed after they attacked Soviet union. It’s hard to be surprised that the Soviet union reaction of treating them badly after the war knowing how they treated civilians in Soviet Union

Still Germans died not of poisonous gas but the harsh realities of gulags. The same gulags were many eastern Europeans thrown into for nothing. Stil they weren’t subjected of the nation wide “final solutions” which they wanted to enforce on Jews and Polish ( yes, they were to be killed in their final solution but on the second place )

They started the war, they dealt with cruel people, they blame Poles about everything including the change of borders as if Poland didn’t lose the eastern border.

That’s the Soviets who decided about the change of eastern lands of German, not Poles.

Germans should know the meaning of the word “selbstschuld”. Actions have consequences and when you start wars with superpowers, the consequences are very big.

I see in recent years increase of German propaganda to portray themselves as prime victims in the ww ii on par with the Jews.

Still it’s the best class propaganda as “Polish Atrocities Against the German Minority in Poland” which have been proved by even German journalists to vastly fake

Oh, so when do you take to the court half of western Germany? Up to late 70s justice ministry officials were in 30% ex nazi party members. Not mentioning BND ( ex org Gehlen ) which was nazi organization run by nazi army officer.

Did the Germans return robbed pieces of art? Did the Germans repay restitution to the victims of German nazi camps ( yes, German because first nazi camps were created in Germamy like in Dachau 1933, then in Austria )

Did Germans repay for the victims of Intelligenzaktion ( killing action of Polish elite, educates people like doctors, academics, politicians and members of police and army )

Did Germans repay for intentionally robbing and demolishing any industrial or even cities like Warsaw?

Please let’s talk seriously about war crimes
