@lnx @lnx I dying think it's greed tbh. These companies are making money off of Canadian citizens so why shouldn't they get some of that money back?

Well I need to pass out. My motherboard on my PC went, so not great atm 😕

Now I have to somehow come up with money to repair / rebuild my PC and I really need info on those drives so I'm hoping they're ok.

Find out more tomorrow. Have a good night all.

@Mojeek @gray yeah I haven't tried mojeek yet but will try it now!

Lemmy is really neat, just wish they had mobile apps for it 😊♠️

Marco Rubio: Why is Twitter Not Removing Chinese Official’s Post That Includes Doctored Fake Images

https://www.reddit.com/r/Conservative/comments/k5b4bs/marco_rubio_why_is_twitter_not_removing_chinese/

https://www.theepochtimes.com/rubio-criticizes-twitter-for-not-removing-chinese-officials-post-that-includes-doctored-image_3601538.html

Still, no Twitter action a day later after international condemnation of an official state-run Chinese Twitter account posting a doctored photo of an Australian soldier holding a bloody knife on a child's throat. Not even a fact check tag.

@ThreeBadgersInATrenchcoat do you think a peer to peer approach world be more secure than servers? Servers can always be seized, and it's a 1 point of failure setup.

@nikolal can't say I am but I will be trying to game on Linux when I have to upgrade so I'll be asking these questions myself I'm sure 😁

@ThreeBadgersInATrenchcoat easier? Use already established services.

Better for the community? Build new services that are better.
