Unironically, yes. I don’t know if you’re trying to make that scenario sound ridiculous, but I can assure you that it very much is not. At least outside of the US.

It’s not everyone at the moment, but the IT people who are paying attention are freaking the fuck out. I legitimately think Microsoft, AWS, and GCP will lose substantial market share overseas in the next 24 months.

Consider that much of the rest of the world has started trusting China more than the US. Now think about the US CLOUD Act. What person in their right mind is going to feel comfortable hosting their company’s most sensitive data within jurisdictional reach of whatever the fuck is going on over there?

Let’s cyberbully the shit out of them

If those workers are in the country legally, Hyundai should shut down the fucking plant.

So essentially unmanned suicide bombs.

Throw the book at him and lock him away for decades.

Russia is trying to genocide Ukranians, and India has a Hindu Nationalist leader (aka a synonym of our local Christian Nationalist leader)…so yes, I completely understand that the West will do its best to undermine it’s political opponents, but also, they haden to have some existentially oppressive and shitty aspects to their collective as well.

Fuck the US, but also fuck Putin and fuck Modi.

I’m m happy that they’re giving up on a non-feasible idea, but I’m so fucking sad that they are giving up on the larger hope of finding a post-fossil-fuel alternative to displace the ICE (also, fuck ICE in both contexts)

Just so you know, I really appreciate that you upload these videos every day. There aren’t many/any comments on your posts, but I look forward to watching these every single day before bed. Just an affirmation that your time and effort is appreciated!

I mean, if breaking the propaganda arm of US cultural bullshit (aka regulating US Big Tech) is a defining issue in this battleground, let’s make it BRICCS and add Canada as well. It’s too bad that BRICS has some incredibly authoritarian and brutally imperialist leaders themselves.

This is amazing, thank you!

It could be but if I open and search on GMaps, I’ll likely just end up using GMaps.

I think this other app used different source data for addresses (eg Google Maps or Mapbox API) because OSM business and address data is often very out of date and incomplete

Yes I’m aware you can search for addresses in OsmAnd, but the reality that I’ve experienced is that the address data in OSM in general is wildly unreliable (aka OSM and CoMaps often don’t have the business name in the app, and many times even searching the address yields no results).

I believe that this app used a different geocoding service where address data was more reliable to do geocoding, and then when you picked the address you were searching for it would auto-open OSM and pass the geodata into the search field. It legitimately enabled me to use OSM / Organic Maps. Now without the app I’m back to being forced to use GMaps much of the time because places I’m navigating to are literally not findable via the search bar.

I’m a huge skeptic of the idea that the US would ever do anything to legitimately “make the world a better place” without having some sort of ulterior motive for fucking over poor people of color in the global south, but there’s no fucking way I’m reading an article published by RT.

These numbers seem to all be pre-DOGE bullshit. This is still the pre-Trump 2.0 data. Just wait until the 2025 numbers come out, and then 2026 will likely be even worse. If the US can survive and make it to the other side of this nightmare, there’s going to be so much work to do.

Nor for Israel, no.
