Now worldwide governments have suspended all the burqa ban and other face cover nonsense, can we quickly switch to anti-facial recognition masks before they manage to catch up? https://www.cnet.com/news/your-face-mask-selfies-could-be-training-the-next-facial-recognition-tool/

Me neither, although I had my laptop stolen in a train in Poland in 90's.

Would you risk that in Moscow? 😂

@dump_stack @guenther

You can drive through the whole EU - from London to Kraków - and you will see zero road police patrols on the way.

In RU you'll meet road police on every large junction in towns and every 50 km outside of towns.

And between republics you've got actual borders with bunkers, BMP, armed cops and document checks. This is from Rostov-on-Don all the way down south.

In St Peterburg as I walked from Биржа to Таврический сад I've seen minimum 3 road police patrols hunting :)

@guenther

Yes, it goes to great effort to make sure your money is secure in their pockets 😂

Irony apart, from personal experience Russian streets are probably just as secure as any other European town. There is much more cops who stop random people for "document checks" usually trying to get a bribe. Road police are absolutely masters of this. As I was driving in Russia back in 2000's there were police patrols like on every major road crossing and their *only* purpose was to extort bribes.

> Running a separate container for a small program like certbot seems pretty ridiculous to me

Because it is ridiculous and not only for a "small program" but for any daemon that is available as a regular package.

It does make sense if you have a custom application with incredibly complex dependencies that you just can't cleanly install in the operating system.

@thor

Don't.

If you just run it as a regular Linux daemon it will have normal configuration, log files, data directory, processes and most importantly will be upgraded with unattended-upgrade and it will take maybe 1 MB on the disk.

In Docker, it will take 5 GB and to upgrade a single fucking daemon you need to pull and restart the whole image, whenever its maintainer remembers to rebuild and publish it.

Very interesting feature of economy is Russia is large percentage of people employed in all kind of "security" jobs - army, security services, national guard and a dozen of others. Out of 75m "economically active" citizens over 4.4m is employed in government "security" plus another 2.4m in private security sector, 9% in total.

P.S. before you comment "what about America", please go and bring the data here so we have something to compare :)

@feld

I guess it's some kind of collective psychology, possible associated with the Cold War, McCarthysm etc. Republicans seem to be very concerned about the purity of ideas, they want the world to be simple and black-and-white. Obviously, they are able to notice the world is ahem, slightly more complex, but they don't get it so they stick to these simple ideas out of feeling of insecurity.

"We will have phased out nuclear energy by 2022. We have a very difficult problem, that almost the only sources of energy that will be able to provide baseload power are coal and lignite. We cannot do without baseload energy. Natural gas will play a greater role for another few decades. I believe we would be well advised to admit that if we phase out coal and nuclear energy then we have to be honest and tell people that we’ll need more natural gas.."

You should be aware of the fact that propaganda only works if you can make the target audience to look at it. I'm just as free to block you as a regular spammer and indeed not to look at whatever you're posting here.

> Israel isn’t under existential threat from Hamas’ fireworks

It's not for you to decide that and this type of double standards you have just presented are precisely what has been driving this conflict forever.

The rockets are killing people not only in Israel but also in Gaza, where they land when misfired.

> Israel fails to meet its legal obligations

Israel is supplying electricity and water to the occupied territories. Hamas is destroying them.

Can you refrain from adding irrelevant images to each your comment? We're not on march or on TV, nobody sees them here.
