In fairness, that is some cheap / weak metal with a very low melting point.

Same video was one with the LEDs... That's interesting pulse charger that could be made to siphon some energy.

Those Lister motors are just wonderful. Almost bought one years back. Sad I didn't.

There is a name for this movement - which I do not know. It is not just in Denmark.

It is a global thing at this time.

I found the article funny. That men have been turned into accessories, sperm donors and perma paycheck since they got laid once and bore child.

That description applies to the United States experience since at least the 1960's. 50-60 years into this horrible insanity in the US.

Thank you Rambler!

May I recommend this: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/privacy-redirect/

Privacy Redirect catches common spy platforms and bounces you to privacy respecting alt wrappers.. This includes Invidious instances for avoiding YouTube (which you can manually plug this new one into).

Same plugin exists for Chrome (die Google!).

... I thought we had laws over US companies on being pawned like this.

They are supposed to notify people.

Hate to tell my liberal idealistic friends conducting such hate campaigns, but this ceaseless pursuit of politically in opposite to you doesn't end well. Two party system is an illusion. Theater. Two wings of the same lying bird.

You just are going to cause utter dis-abandonment of sites, web, etc. All of them.

I couldn't care any less because I view liberal pursuits as what already wrecked the technology almost 20 years ago. Not a silly-con valley firm at mass scale who isn't wonky liberal. Go abroad it they are headed up by control freaks with clearer stripes.

Only going to defund yourselves and send everyone into hidden and much more fortified private spaces. Your endless data collection and intelligence will die swiftly.

If the people they censored were so "wrong" why censor them.

Just for the record i'm a liberal independent and this shit is straight up retarded.

How much are you willing to bet me that this isn't going to happen?

Here's an alternative news source: "Linux Mint team wants users to upgrade, may enforce some" from gHacks (clear net only)

Anyway, I don't like where Mint is going, and here's why: in this blog post, the Mint developers said they may enforce some users to update.

In some cases the Update Manager will be able to remind you to apply updates. In a few of them it might even insist.

So I feel like that it's all downhill from there for Mint. I mean, Mint also had systemdestroy since Mint 16 "Petra", stopped supporting 32-bit processors since Mint 20 "Ulyana", and it's probably also bloated, given it's based on Ubuntu. The LTS version, but still.

Loopholes like this don't really exist. No, "Woops, you're right. Looks like they forgot to cross their T's and dot their I's... right this way Sir... I mean, Mr. President."

Biden will get 25th'ed, we'll have Kamala until 2024, then we'll see. That's my take.
