- Comment on Iran Disables GPS, Joins China’s Beidou — The End of U.S. Satellite Dominance? [19:23 | JUN 28 2025 | GVS Deep Dive] 2 hours ago:
Yes, you should use it for the fastest lock, but if your interest is to keep the US out of influence, ofc they would do it.
Either that, or they do it to please China hoping for an ally. Second option might be their played hand, even if it doesnt work.
- Comment on Iran Disables GPS, Joins China’s Beidou — The End of U.S. Satellite Dominance? [19:23 | JUN 28 2025 | GVS Deep Dive] 4 hours ago:
They stop using GPS recievers, therefore nothing for GPS to connect to.
Its a slow transition, but it is one of magnitude. The US could shut down the satilites over Iran, like Starlink did it with Russia/Ukraine.
They are preparing for that, and mostly for the US to loose the power to potentially do it. It matters in case of all out war.

Kind of like playing the lottery and expecting to win.

Yeah mate, be glad you are born in this time age, otherwise natural selection would have done its thing.
- Comment on Denmark Switches from Microsoft to LibreOffice and Linux 4 days ago:
A step in the fight direction is what we should take out from this.
Its great news even though it’s not the whole country. Which would be insane to do all at once.
- Comment on Denmark Switches from Microsoft to LibreOffice and Linux 4 days ago:
How did we expect it to start. Of course one ministry should switch at a time to get the best transition possible.
Switching all infrastructure at once would be insane.

The news will probably never reach them.
- Comment on Operation Narnia: Iran’s nuclear scientists reportedly killed simultaneously using special weapon 1 week ago:
Could also be unpublished because the method was absolutly inhumane.

Meta is also literally developing AI war machines for the US.
- Comment on climate.gov will stop publishing new content on July 1. 2 weeks ago:
The idea was stupid and easy to get through. That’s how Taco Trump rolls.
- Comment on climate.gov will stop publishing new content on July 1. 2 weeks ago:
Didnt anyway. That’s why we call it ‘believe’.
- Comment on 'We're done with Teams': German state hits uninstall on Microsoft 2 weeks ago:
Linux is great for government work.
They dont need compatibility as much. They have their systems only they use, therefore they can easily make them on Linux or emulate.
And there’s money to save. Benefits the whole country.
- Comment on The female TikTokers silenced through murder 2 weeks ago:
There are women who get killed for speaking up, but the latest one the article also admits is probably not one of them.
A 22-year-old man has confessed to killing her after she allegedly rejected him romantically.
And that is a much larger issue with many more killings than the influencer one. We need to look at that more.
- Comment on Why Denmark is dumping Microsoft Office and Windows for LibreOffice and Linux 2 weeks ago:
Im Danish and had no clue about this, even though Im rather interested in open source.
Thanks for sharing.
- Comment on The current system of online advertising has been ruled illegal 2 weeks ago:
If these laws came into place, you would ofc create a grace periode, resulting in løser punishments.
It will give corps a window to really check wtf they are doing, and take it seriously.
- Comment on The current system of online advertising has been ruled illegal 2 weeks ago:
Then maybe dont so anything illegal???
You have to activly track someone, it doesnt just “happen”.
- Comment on Power-Hungry Data Centers Are Warming Homes in Nordic Countries 2 weeks ago:
This is also a thing in Denmark.
It’s required by law to even build a data center.
- Comment on UK vehicle regulator David Ward says cars sold in Europe are so much safer than in the U.S. 2 weeks ago:
Sounds like it’s both.
But the reason I think this means alot in favour of regulations, is that in EU over the last 30 years, death rates have dropped in almost every single country. In Portugal it was 80%.
Europe didnt change car size in that periode, but they did get much better safety standards.
- Comment on [JS Required] EU unveils DNS4EU, a public DNS resolver intended as a European alternative to services like Google’s Public DNS and Cloudflare’s DNS. 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, sure. Go complain about your life in the EU. Must be awful.
Maybe go outside and enjoy your privileged life in Europe.
- Comment on [JS Required] EU unveils DNS4EU, a public DNS resolver intended as a European alternative to services like Google’s Public DNS and Cloudflare’s DNS. 3 weeks ago:
That guy thinks that the EU is one entity, not consisting of many member states.
Also it sounds like he only read headlines. Otherwise he would know that the EU survelliance bill is a proposal, which any member state can make in a democracy.
Guess the propaganda got to him if he belives more what he reads in a headline instead of what actions the EU actually makes.
- Comment on Trump signs orders to bolster US drone defenses, boost supersonic flight 3 weeks ago:
Drone “defences” lol.
Everyone knows the US only use it to attack, not defend.
- Comment on Meta plans to use AI to automate up to 90% of its privacy and integrity risk assessments, including in sensitive areas like violent content 4 weeks ago:
My guess is you dont know how bad it is. These people at Meta has real PTSD, and it would absolutly benefit everyone, if this in any way could be automatic with AI.
Next question is though, do you trust Meta to moderate. Nah, should be an independent AI, they couldnt tinker with to also remove everything they just dont like.

- Comment on Funny how we see the world in landscape, but live it mostly in portrait. 4 weeks ago:
Alright, I go to work, my house and playing football.
All these things are in landscape. I know my shower is in portrait, which makes this post oddly good in this sub, but the rest of my rooms are also wider than tall.
- Comment on The technology to end traffic deaths exists. Why aren’t we using it? 5 weeks ago:
If I could cut my work time by my driving time, because I would be able to work from the car, it would be an absolute game changer for my family life.
- Comment on Trump says a 25% tariff "must be paid by Apple" on iPhones not made in the US, says he told Tim Cook long ago that iPhones sold in the US must be made in the US 5 weeks ago:
Also wont matter because 50% of the population would have to go to war, if he keeps this up.
- Comment on Is America headed for an age of dumb phones? 5 weeks ago:
No. A very small number of people is.
- Comment on Governments continue losing efforts to gain backdoor access to secure communications 1 month ago:
Screen recording or snapshots like Windows Recall. Or keyboard telemitry.
But that’s it I think.
