Why are only some executable and source code file formats blocked? Wouldn’t it make sense to also block Python, Pascal, Fortran, MatLab, JS, TS, BF, ELF, A, B, C, C++, C#, D files?
Malware distributors would find another way, and broad restrictions would only frustrate legitimate users.
What country and why?
Android, Poco X3 NFC. The only phone.
The Trail has that


Tankie is a pejorative for those who defend socialist states.
Never heard it used against democratic socialists who acknowledged mistakes of the past.
The “authoritarian” part doesn’t really make any sense, considering the Marxist analysis of authority is that what matters most is which class has the authority of the state.
So you believe there were no authoritarian socialist states in history? Ones that silenced critics, shot protesters, censored press and didn’t have competitive elections? Lol.
Either way, the ethnic cleansing of the Donbass region was widely reported even by western organizations until 2022, then this was all wiped away and minimized.
This war killed almost half a million people already on all sides combined (if we believe Russian MoD, this number way exceeds a million). Do you think the “ethnic cleansing” would kill this much in a thousand years? According to DPR-operated media, only 17 people died in last years before 2022 on Donbas, most from uncleaned minefields.
Could just write “18 Mm from home”.


FFMPEG in the command line generally has permission to access the entire non-sudo filesystem and delete files.


How does a method being traditional make it more ethical? Aren’t more ethical methods of hunting about minimising agony of an animal when killed using all available technology? So a firearm shot would be more ethical than slow-to-kill arrow?


You made it about communism by complaining about tankies
From Wikipedia:
Tankie is a pejorative label generally applied to authoritarian communists, especially those who support or defend acts of repression by such regimes, their allies, or deny the occurrence of the events thereof.
Not about communism as a political philosophy.
You are covering up the ethnic cleansing committed by Kiev against the Donbass region
This is a common myth created by Russian propaganda. I invite you to check it for yourself. Open an official website of any town that was part of Ukraine before 2022 and had Russian majority in population. Check publications before 2022. You’ll see an abundant use of Russian language and culture. Even Zelenski, with Russian being his first language, often spoke it in political campaigns.
Now many of these towns are ghost towns due to shelling.


I’m sorry, but that’s not about pro-communism and anti-communism. You know Russia is no longer a communist country, right? That’s about pro-war and anti-war. Blaming Ukraine for the start of the war and following genocide (or denying that genocide happening) is one of the most absurd and dangerous fakes created by Russian propaganda and it deserves to be challenged.


That the echo chamber lemmy.ml where tankies could post the most insane pro-dictator bullshit unchallenged finally gets challenged from the outside. My first interaction with lemmy was ruined by encountering a deranged post from there.


That’s quite a common thing on lemmy.ml servers. Glad their hole started being recommended to people in other communities to average reactions.


There is a separate project, OpenArealMap, for Free as in Freedom areal/satellite images. Most useful images are proprietary though. Some, like Bing, allow limited usage of their images for improving OSM, some don’t.
AC means Alternating Current, electrical current that periodically reverses direction, and DC means Direct Current, a current that continuously flows in one direction. AC/DC on a socket means it can take both types of power.
Can be huge for developing countries where doctors are constantly understaffed. These AIs rivaling with American doctors make them on average more qualified than people currently employed there.
