which isn’t a bad thing either if you want to encourage people to have more kids (which of course is debatable whether that should be a goal, but many people think it should)

that’s right: into their UI; with free software, you could use a different UI with no ads
when he said that software should be free as in freedom, because that would solve this problem
Stallman was right.
You don’t, if you have absolutely no way of accessing the internet or a phone network other than the phone you want to find, you’re out of luck and have to find it manually.
maybe someone once performed a command like “for all files in this folder without an extension, append .exe to them” and didn’t exclude subdirectories from that
no nothing similar has ever happened to me, nuh-uh, why would you ever suspect that
I think that mainly mocks the idea that if only people talked to each other more, communicated with each other more, tried to see things from the others’ perspective, then everything would be great and everyone would arrive at a common conclusion.
Lots of people were 100% convinced in 2016 that there was no way Trump could win. I know because, TBH, I was one of them. So I don’t think it’s anywhere near out of the question that Trump might win this year; I do not know it, neither do you, neither does anyone else.
There is no inherent security problem with changing the content of the clipboard. That doesn’t do anything until the user pastes it somewhere; of course if that “somewhere” is a command prompt, then that is a security problem, but users really ought to check what they’re pasting there before they execute it (yeah, I know, “ought to”).
It would be possible to do it the way you say, but that would mean that the user would need to allow that for many websites; I don’t think copying from apps like Google Docs would work anymore, and “here’s your access token, click here to copy it to the clipboard” features certainly wouldn’t.
The screenshot in the OP would then probably be changed to include a step “click: allow clipboard access”; I think most people who fall for the screenshot in the OP would also fall for that.
One side’s “wisdom of the crowd”, “truth” and “knowledge and democracy” is the other’s “conspiracy theories”, “disinformation”. 🙁
If the Australian government is going to regulate ex-Twitter, it’s going to be writing a law that applies to all websites (or maybe: all websites above a certain size), including here on the fediverse; not just to ex-Twitter.
I am not seeing any movements by governments that would “restore some freedom for individuals”, anywhere in the world. All I am seeing is censorship.
Somehow I am managing to completely ignore the existence of ex-Twitter as well as any decisions made there. What is being ruined?
Remember when the Internet was nearly unified in believing that governments shouldn’t regulate it, or at least not much?
What happened that I am now reading here a stream of comments that say that Musk is wrong and defend the Australian government? 🙁🤮😡
This is something that, as long as you ended up getting a job, you should really just not give a fuck about.
They probably had 1 position to fill, but got many times more applications than that, maybe 10, maybe 20, maybe 50, maybe 100. That means that they had to reject 9 or 19 or 49 or 99 people and they have better things to do with their time than to explain this to all these people, however many they may be.
Not mostly how this works, it is true that for underage sex many countries do have laws like that, but those are usually special exceptions to the general principle that the laws of the place where you are (or where your actions have an effect) apply and not those of your home country or any arbitrary country.
Ubuntu supports a wider range of devices than Debian? Since when? I was under the impression that Debian supported all or nearly all architectures the Linux kernel supports, Ubuntu only a few popular ones?
No, it’s possible that there needs to be some kind of reform, but the solution is certainly not to make the judiciary entirely subservient to the executive.
I live in a country where the voting age is 16. It used to be 18 and I don’t think this change has caused many concrete policy changes: young people aren’t big or unified enough a voting bloc to meaningfully affect the results.
I tend to be in favor of letting young people have more rights at a younger age in general (in part because I remember being young and not seeing any good reason why I shouldn’t), so I’m definitely not in favor of raising it to 18 again or further.
