Countries wouldn't do it if it wasn't worth it

No but they are in the Schengen Zone so they have strong economic ties with the EU

why does florida get three lines?

A lot of this probably comes from his advisors. But i imagine those advisors would follow him back into the whitehouse

Imagine living in the 2020's in the developed world and not realizing that internet access is a basic necessity.

Then imagine being the sort of person who would deny poor people basic necessities

He was headed from Hong Kong to Latin America with a connecting flight in Russia when the US cancelled his passport.

The fact he was stuck in Russia was entirely incidental

probably keeping his head down trying not to be used as a pawn in the cross politics of the US and russia

tbh, i'm not sure you're correct. most other franchises are either more devicive or do not have the same cross generational appeal.

Star wars is highly devicive

Stargate was widely loved but currently only exists for a single generation

BSG was great but didnt achieve the same culture permiation that star trek did

They did tho

lucky all those people they brutally killed in the first day of the war werent hostages then, or they might make your rosy image of hamas look a bit unbelievable

grayjay is better, it simultaniously blocks ads and chips away at the youtube monopoly on independent content creators

isnt the tor browser just firefox?

there are programs that allow you to mount a portion of RAM as normal fs storage. you'll have to research that though, i've never done it

you need to be careful with this. the usual workflow here is you write to a file, you then use gpg to create an encrypted version of that file, then you delete the original. the problem here is that "deleting" from an operating system often doesnt actually delete from the disk. so your unencrypted file is often wholly or partially recoverable

I wonder if they'll be able to crack those encrypted insurance dumps wikileaks used to release anytime soon. I imagine there will be some interesting revelations in them

You need some sort of reference point to translate a language. The rosetta stone allowed for linguists to get their foot in the door for ancient egyptian because the same text was written three times in ancient greek (which they already knew), ancient egyption and another one i cant remember.

from there they were able to use what they knew to expand their understanding outwards.

you're better just writing in your first language and encrypting using strong encryption.

keep in mind quantum computing is coming so you will need to use encryption designed to withstand that.

You'll also want to keep in mind that when you delete a file on a computer it usually isn't destroyed, it's just sort of de-referenced and maked as "available space" so you'll need to ensure that your medium for writing isn't writing unencrypted to disk at any point or at least is overwriting those sectors after use otherwise what you write could be recoverable without having to decrypt

i hope they come up with a better ending than they did in the books

i really REALLY hope it doesn't suck

Yes, correct, he won the election.
