This is very good news! Please don't forget that even if the great pacific garbage patch doesn't exist, that doesn't mean that the ocean is clean. There are still lots of garbage in the ocean!

However everybody needs to work where the problem originates.

skype was way ahead of his time. The quality was top notch. MS fucked by changing the architecture from decentralized to centralized in windows servers - this fucked up the calls quality and it created an opportunity window for whatsapp, viber, etc...

MS turned skype to shit.

microslop patch

OP writes "instead of their american counterparts", and then puts signal.

Firefox as well any opensource doesn't have a country. You can build it and use it. Avoid any centralized service.

as long as these freedoms are observed it doesn't matter the country of origin.

He should have used a car to run him down.

I register on reddit 17 years ago. Before the great migration from digg. I remember /r/programming being the first sub to reach 100k subscribers.

I got banned for saying in the /r/europe sub that russia banning youtube in russia was a good thing because then we in the west would get less russian propaganda. Got banned for a couple days. Left and never looked back.

/r/programming is dead already since around a decade. All the good discussions moved to hackernews and lobsters.

EDIT: never forget that spez admitted to silently edit user comments that criticized him

Just proves that his political views are based in what it's best for his company.

"The US should be liquidated and sovereignty returned to individual states so that governments can better represent their people,"

Fixed that for you him.

This thread should be called "how kids get traumatized by school teachers causing them to hate school"

This is the 3rd time, that i remember, that some german state moved to linux. It always ends up with moving back to windows, because:

• Corruption/money
• The users will complain until death about linux, because now the workflow is different, and they don't like it.

I'm speechless. So they change the recipe and then they blame the recipe? WTF....

‘If I switch it off, my girlfriend might think I’m cheating’ - then fuck your girlfriend. How can you be in a relationship without trust?

It actually says what it does in the name without using the idea of racism and white supremacy.

The origin of the words blacklist and whitelist doesn't have anything to do with racism. If someone looks around and only sees racism, then who is the racist?

exactly. If you want to kill someone, just use a car. Obligatory fuck cars!

now canada needs to invest in proper public transportation, so in the future people wouldn't need to buy a car just for day to day life.

pedobear meme is already too old for pedos!

This is a total capitulation. Trump said "jump!", and we are saying "how high?"

Besides being hosted in the AWS servers, there's no way to check if what's running there is the same as the published code. That's why i don't use signal.

When the signal foundation is losing money every year, i can just wonder what will happen when the money runs out. Even the good guys need to eat.

Or what will happen when trump will decide to seize the AWS servers running the signal application server.

just on more lane road bro!

I didn't know that the US had real cheese. Anyway, they can always use other word for their "cheese".

I guess this is a win-win situation 🤩
