Ok so I watched the whole video and he never said that in the video. They, the adl, monitor Internet traffic for things that could be potentially dangerous for Israel and then forward that to law enforcement. There certainly is overlap there but the headline totally misconstrues what is being said in the video. I am by no means a fan of Israel or the United States but there are plenty of real actual things to be upset about. No need to muddy the waters with statements like this. At least the posted video is not sufficient evidence to back up the stated claim

So I realize this is a shitpost but I've noticed that too and couldn't help but wonder why that is. My guess is that it's because bubble wrap is made to absorb and smooth out peak forces when things are bumped around. By letting the air out slowly the bubble wrap now more effectively does it's job even when it structurally fails.

This is way too good to be a shitpost. Which makes it a shitty shitpost. Which makes it a shitpost

Thanks Buddy! I got so wrapped up in the ai debacle that I didn't look into my question any further 😅 I was actually initially trying to find out where the German designations of "baby", "lady", "mono", and "mignon" come from. Haven't gotten very far on that end either 🤔

Hot-swappable battery meaning without turning off the device?! Lol I've never seen that 😉 I get what you're saying though, but from what I've seen the battery is replaceable! It's retained with a screw but that's not a deal breaker imo. Using a standardized form factor would have been even cooler, but I think that would've been very difficult for space reasons

not be held back by trying to shoehorn modern software on retro computing devices.

So I admit that I am just a user and have basically no idea what goes on behind the scenes in development, but for me, shoehorning stuff into retro devices is kind of a defining feature of Linux. It runs on just about everything, full stop. I suppose that can be a blessing and a curse, but it does make me a little sad especially in the context of this rust fever where everyone seems to think that this one thing will magically solve all the problems. Seems a bit short-sighted to me. Also because I thought I'd move to Debian since Ubuntu has been forcing snaps onto me...

I haven't had a great experience with my fairphone 4. app/phone crashes, ghost touching, now they announced that they're skipping support for Android 14, technical support has also been rather unresponsive. to top it off, they are usually very late with their security patches and apparently their verified boot implementation is horrible, they use the aosp test keys (which are publicly available) to cryptographically sign their firmware, which completely negates the point of the thing. I guess that's on par with the software support in general...

so yeah, can't recommend the company as is unfortunately 😕

fun fact, the machinery used to make cereal and pet food is often exactly the same.

edit: for clarification, I don't mean they share a production line but the machines can be used to make either.
