Microsoft - a company with tens of thousands of engineers and billions of dollars in cash (plus assets), cannot support anything legacy, while concurrently failing to deliver a working product on any modern device. With more and more decisions like this, the year of the Linux desktop will be here sooner than we could have ever imagined.


We live in the best timeline.

facts and data are no longer needed in the big 26.

If there are no facts, everything becomes a matter of opinion. If it's opinions, then the bosses' is better than yours. Getting rid of facts is important to bullies.

Japan needs a full-standing army, air force, and navy too, but demographics make that increasingly difficult.

True. Nukes can offset some of that. All a very tough sell politically though.

Can't they just use Pegasus or Cellebrite???

It's unlikely that Pegasus would work since Apple patched the exploit it used.

I think it's unclear whether Cellebrite can or cannot get around Lockdown Mode as it would depend very heavily on whether the technique(s)/exploit(s) Cellebrite uses are suitable for whatever bugs/vulnerabilities remain exposed in Lockdown Mode.


"Flood the zone"

What's happening on the media landscape is an enormous problem, highly manipulated and coordinated on the right-wing side. Flooding the zone is happening, among other things that weaken trust in journalism, weaken/defund/discourage investigative reporting, burying the lede information etc.

However, using the goon squad to illegally intimidate and disenfranchise voters is a problem large enough that calling it a would-be distraction from the Epstein files is doing everyone a disservice.

We have to pay attention to more than one thing. Saying <blank> is just a distraction from <blank-2>, means that you're too distracted by <blank-2> and need to step back and look around at all the other horrors.


They're "obstructing" the unfettered profits.

Lol at all the publicly traded companies noted there...they produce some of the worst homes possible. Shoddy materials and two-bit GCs whilst charging a fortune. Also there is no addressing where these are going to be built? There is a housing crisis in places people want to live. I have a feeling they aren't going to be making anything new in those places though.
