I'm saying that the government led organisation will have had a negligible impact compared to regular people, therefore the levels of organisation (ie people publicly saying "I'm going to vote for x/y to show my support" and other people seeing that and thinking it's a good idea) aren't that big of a deal.
Also I think it'd be incredibly shocking if the EBU or at least individual broadcasters don't already have requirements for tackling vote manipulation from suspicious/newly registered phones and especially voip services so a state organised campaign would have even less of an impact
I also see your source on the organisation is twitter (and I can't even find the tweets there), so I'm inclined to doubt it's true given nobody's even reported on it, never mind people coming out and saying it's happened despite the number of people in multiple countries who would be required to be sworn to secrecy to get something like that to work
And there was an "organised plan" for Ukraine in 2022 insofar as people decided to vote for them regardless of their performance, which the few people who supported Russia in the conflict were probably pretty mad at, but couldn't do anything to stop, just as people who support Palestine can't do anything to stop Israel supporters here.
The reason Israel didn't win is they have fewer supporters, but how Palestine's supporters and frankly neutrals also are feeling is how Russia's supporters and the smaller number of neutrals there felt... It's impossible to keep politics out of this and it's just a shame really
Not voting for Israel wasn't going to have an impact if you weren't voting for them anyway, however people who support Israel in the conflict voting for them will have an effect that there's very little you can do to stop. You don't think Russia would have had voting farms to stop Ukraine if it was possible? That's why they got so many votes - if they have 15% support, then they'll get that 15% of votes which is a significant number.
Given Turkmenistan's past record it wouldn't even shock me to find out there's a law saying people have to do exactly that, but yeah you're probably right
the data is clearly fucked given the whole UK mess, and given it's all either small countries, authoritarian hellholes or both which have their country flag I'm inclined to believe it's a "no data" placeholder
The reason networks are all shutting down 3G is because very few people use it anymore, which means the 3G bandwidth is split between 10s of people whereas the 4G is split between 10s of thousands, as is 5G
250Mb/s among 10 people is 25Mb/s for each person, 10Gb/s among 10,000 people is 1Mb/s for each person (made up numbers and it's a bit more complex than this, but it demonstrates the point), so even though the 5G & 4G are capable of transmitting more data, per person they're not.
If you repurpose the 3G tower as 4G or 5G you can cut that 10,000 in half, which annoyingly gets rid of the hack to use 3G when it's being slow, but does improve the speed for most people
He's not wrong in that the foreigner wants cookies from any source, but he's not being truthful in that he's misrepresenting the situation by implying the only cookie that can be given away is the worker's
I don't know if it's that unless you live in Nigeria, India, SEA etc.
In high income countries, the cities have grown in population and there's fewer people in rural areas, so sure you're going to see people in cities in urban areas and in touristy rural areas during common vacation times, but that's been the case for ages and for the rest of the time there's still plenty of easily accessible places where you can get away from people.
There's also people capitalising on people wanting to be away from humans so they advertise "retreats" which are full of other humans, but just don't go there and camp in the middle of nowhere instead and there won't be humans for miles around
So personally I prefer Erlang to Elixir - the language feels more like it was designed around the programming paradigms it supports (message passing, everything's one of about 6 types for efficient serialisation etc), whereas Elixir feels like "what if we made a language with syntax like Ruby that worked like (and with the backend of) Erlang?" - there are some aspects I like, such as how the vast majority of things, even def, are a function call, and the parameter lists, but it feels very much like there's a lot of workarounds of the design principles of the language to get it to work
I also prefer Gleam to Elixir - it brings much nicer functional programming than either Erlang or Elixir and of course typing, which feels very missing from Elixir but not from Erlang, which is far clearer that something is one of very few types and lets you handle multiple types in a very natural feeling way. It also feels more akin to modern "full featured" (as opposed to scripting) languages than either Erlang or Elixir does.
Basically if you're learning something for employability, learn Elixir. If you're learning something for a potential business idea, use Gleam. If you're learning something for personal projects, see if Erlang is intuitive for you - if it is, I can guarantee you'll love it, if not, use Gleam.
He was anti-zionist sure, but he also openly associated with and supported groups that go beyond anti-zionism into full blown anti-semitism and, despite plenty of prompting, continuously maintained that there was no issue with this.
There's inferences made there, sure, but it's very easy to say "I generally support X but they take Y too far" - even the current government is doing it when supporting Israel, but also making (hollow) statements that they should be more careful not to attack civilians as it's clearly not right, but they still want to support their allies. Corbyn could've made similar statements, but he didn't, either meaning that he didn't see anything wrong with the anti-semitism or he thought that them also being anti-zionist excused it, neither of which are a good look.
Ah I got thrown off by it being a US unit as I know in the US for some braindead reason they call a pint a "half quart(er gallon)" so I was thinking 1.136 litres, but yeah the US decided to not even use the same imperial units as anywhere else which still used them at the time just to be extra special (and scam people into thinking they were getting more than they wore, which sets the tone for the US I guess)
I mean there does have to be something there and while I prefer charities, fake companies or promoting your own products, if they're not targeted and realistic so you see eg. Ethiad ads while playing as City I don't think that's too bad... But on loading screens, menu screens or as popups gtfo, even if it's your own product
