They did that without her consent!?

Okay so Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein were arrested, that’s big news, guess they resurrected him. Who are the other two?
- Comment on 600 GB of Alleged Great Firewall of China Data Published in Largest Leak Yet 2 days ago:
confiscating Palestinian flags displayed publicly and preventing mobilizations in support of Gaza
I don’t really think the evidence is strong enough to attribute any sort of anti-Palestinian policy. The video is short, only 13 seconds, with no audio and no context. It doesn’t depict a large mobilisation of support, only one person, though it does look like he had his flag confiscated by school-security. In the clip, another person also has their Chinese flag confiscated. It’s possible given the evidence that large flags were confiscated regardless of which flag it is. We can also see a smaller Palestine flag allowed by the school-security.
The twitter account you attributed only posts unsourced and impossibly to verify anti-China news, so it’s possible this video is widely taken out of context given who’s reporting it.

That’s such a tenuous connection. Why are you highlighting this? Those are off the shelf cameras, everyone uses them, because they are cheap. China isn’t unique in not sanctioning Israel. They absolutely should. But you may just as well focus on the use of Microsoft Windows or who their Ethernet cable supplier is.
- Comment on Solar-powered Logitech keyboard appears on Amazon Mexico — MX Keys S look-alike promises up to 10 years of power 1 week ago:
Pretty neat. Perfect for a HTPC in a sunny main lounge. It charges during the day while you’re at work, and you just never worry about it. I have to swap the AAA batteries on mine every few weeks. It’s barely a bother but still better if I didn’t have to.

Should disarm Israel instead.

The public must be so terrorised in their homes, knowing the orphan crushing machines can’t come and save them when they need snap-orphan crushing.

The body of the post starts with

Further, EU nations could invade Israel and deliver famine relief with armed escorts instructed to shoot at any disruptions from the IDF.
- Comment on Valve now require UK Steam users to verify their ages with a credit card, thanks to the Online Safety Act 2 weeks ago:
What are Steam cards? It says in the article that debit cards are valid.
Top paragraph:
According to reports, debit cards are acceptable too.
- Comment on Valve now require UK Steam users to verify their ages with a credit card, thanks to the Online Safety Act 2 weeks ago:
It says in the article(/the linked Steam page) as long as you have ever made a purchase, you’re assumed to be over 18, since being over 18 is a requirement to having a card. The third party verification is for sites that only ask for ID or vibes-check photo of your face.

Could you buy premium games from Steam in the UK without a debit card or credit card before this change?
- Comment on Portuguese president calls Trump Soviet or Russian agent 2 weeks ago:
Okay but Putin was nobody in the KGB. He had a high salary, knew more shady foreigners, he had some advantages sure, but it’s not like the rest of the KGB is who formed the new governments. His job was transcribing Nazi pub banter, essentially the spy version of a market analyst, and then he was fired for being a Nazi sympathiser.
On the worthless comment, it was very harsh, we shouldn’t talk that way about other people. But I did think it was funny and wouldn’t take it as a slight if directed at me, more just a funny way to express frustration.

She was born in London and received citizenship at birth. It’s not her skin colour that inspired her politics.

- Comment on Ecosia has offered to take ‘stewardship’ of Chrome. And it's not a bad idea. 3 weeks ago:
The two you wouldn’t advocate for have their own crawlers and index. The remainders which you are advocating for, don’t have the ability to not pass on the result manipulation from Google, Bing or Yandex.
At best they serve as anonymisers, but Ecosia’s (non-profit) business model is telling Google what you search for, and DDG is beholden to USA laws, which means for all practical consideration they are a front for the NSA.

Are there more effective chemical weapons for this task at a similar price? Include transport risks in your assessment.
- Comment on Ukraine Sends Evidence of 10,000 Russian Chemical Attacks to The Hague 1 month ago:
Pointing at the USA as the standard is among the worst defences there is for war crimes. Whoever authorised this tactic belongs in prison.
- Comment on Valve is redesigning the Steam Store Menu and Search, wants user feedback 1 month ago:
Apple allows you to offer better deals on other platforms. Customers are allowed to buy on other platforms, but sellers aren’t allowed to give you any reason to. Even in cases where those other platforms take a smaller cut, the developer has to artificially raise the price until Steam is the cheapest platform if they want to remain on Steam.

- Comment on Assassin's Creed Shadows to Feature Denuvo & Mandatory Ubisoft Account Linking 9 months ago:
What’s well intentioned about not letting me use Cheat Engine on my own game. I’m not interacting with anyone else, I can’t ruin the game’s economy, or make people’s PvP experience worse. The worst thing I could do is make my own experience worse. They’re even including macro’s in that – A wide-spread accessibility feature.
I already bought the game, what incentive is there to make sure I can’t enjoy it?
- Comment on Assassin's Creed Shadows to Feature Denuvo & Mandatory Ubisoft Account Linking 9 months ago:
Probably thinking of Empress. The most recent Denuvo game to be cracked was Dead Island 2, which is a year and a half ago. And if we don’t count Empress or MKDEV*, (because it’s reasonable to assume they aren’t going to want to crack this), then it’s eFootball in 2020: 4 years ago.
*MKDEV used to only crack Football Manager, as to allow modding. Football Manager now allows a method for MKDEV’s mod to run without removing Denuvo.
