There should be a contest which region / country / city lights up the most.

That dude is on of the most embarrassing men on earth right now. Just look at his Twitter account. You cant really emberass him any more than he already did himself.

So they want to platform a fascist? Giving a nazi access to their audience which he normally wouldn’t reach? This guy is part of an ongoing coup and they want to give him primetime attention?

They must think that they are very clever.

Probabl Edit: lol

How does a global spending shutdown work for those outside the US? just not buy US stuff?

To me this person sounds like they have too many big projects at once. I wish them success tho

As with every scam, the target are those that get most easily fooled.

You can download certain iso files directly from windows:

Edit: also cant you skip account creation and license key on every version? literally skipped those yesterday on an OEM preinstalled win 11

I use one, but its a cheap legacy contract and I literally just torrent there, seed till I have a ration if 1 and then download to my own hardware

Sounds cool, maybe I will try this when I play around with piracy tools again

Sounds like streaming from a streaming site with extra steps. But yeah when I torrent I use a cheap seedbox and then download from there to my own hardware.

I feel like all people recommending torrenting here are not really understanding the users of those streaming portals. I use them because I dont want to torrent the newest anime epiaode every week and I dont want any automated torrenting setups, because every mistake/fuck up might result in a 3 to 4 digit fine.

I torrent when it actually makes sense for me (high quality or offline viewing) and stream the rest. I am grateful for all those that provide me with those streaming sites and I regularly recommend them to friends after I install an adblocker for them.

with a guy in charge who is at least a descent person

There is no decent billionaire

He is like the prime goal for any Luigi out there.

Unlawful deportations happen all the time everywhere. It will happen and probably happened quite often in the last years

I sincerely wish the absolute worst on any marginalized group that voted for Trump.

Are white people exempt from that or why did you choose that wording?

Its not a garbage take. They had the chance before and didnt, why would anyone trust them to do it this time?

Yeah and still we should not push the message that Telegrams encryption is even remotely close to other encrypted messengers. I met more than one person that somehow thought their messages in Telegram are “safer” than they are in WhatsApp (and they never activated the encrypted chat oprion in Telegram)

It took the german goverment years to force Telegram to comply with their requests to get data and shut down specific groups. Also based on your location things that might be legal are not legal in a different location, from a German legal perspective there still lots of things happening in Telegram that are atleast a grey area(piracy, hate speech, porn) or straight up illegal(drugs, terrorist groups propaganda).

I am not in favor of the arrest or any goverment repression btw, I am just adding why goverments in europe might want to do stuff like this.
