@ersi So polling and the right of self-determination of Crimeans isn't relevant. What's relevant to you is the biased propaganda spread by our mainstream. No problem for me - go for it. The polling demonstrates clearly that it was the free will of Crimeans to secede. They would vote for the secession today as they did in 2014. Without Russians securing the referendum in 2014 it would have been turned by the fascist putschists into a bloodshed. I know, some people feel frustrated because that bloodshed was prevented... So far about the myth of Crimea's 'annexation'.
Asked directly, "How would you vote if a referendum about Crimea joining the Russian Federation was held today?" 78.8 percent of respondents in Crimea and the city of Sevastopol said they would vote "the same as in March 2014." Only 2.4 percent said they would make a different choice, while 6.8 percent declined to answer the question.
In case you wonder, the "German institute" the above article is referring to was established by the German Bundestag. Such findings will hardly make their way into our guidet 'free' mass media and even Google will take care that such news get buried so they can't be found easy.
BTW, a more comprehensive article in German language can be found here.
I've been using Palemoon quite long now and even there I got a warning from TileTabs that it may stop working due to the extensions system update on FF.
That looks rather like an alibi-excuse to me. AFAIK Palemoon uses different engines and besides, they told that they'll keep the old extensions system. So how can the new Firefox affect Palemoon's extensions system? There might be other reasons I could think of. One of those reasons coming to my mind: Is a browser with 0.05% market share attractive enough to maintain and develop my extensions for it? Most extension writers seek for recognition and some reward. How good are the chances for it with a 0.05% browser?
Firefox users can see which extensions have been disabled by pressing Ctrl-Shift-A to display the Add-ons page, then selecting Legacy Extensions. You can re-enable them by going to about:config, searching for extensions.legacy.enabled and changing the binary value to true. However, this also disables the multi-process feature. source
I didn't test myself but I assume that the above is true. However I'll continue to use the v52 ESR branch which will be unaffected till March 2018. Crucially for me will be the option to add search engines and the option to customize Google's search string. Without those options I'll have to ditch Firefox.
Whatever "lefty" means to you... Once Thales, a "lefty" Greek philosoper (I wonder if you ever heard of him), was asked which city is the best: "The one without too rich and too poor people."
Apparently not quite so trivial factoid, at least not for those who included the same language twice in the same language family. After all it was about laguage families on TV. Wasn't it?
Congratulation It was indeed Romanian but it has nothing to do with "cut of plane at the middle of the new's take". Assuming that you don't speak that language, can you tell us why it was Romanian? Now it should be very easy, for an European at least.
- Different language families - It starts with Portugal which is part of a language family. In that language family one and the same language appears twice. My question: Which language appears twice?
“Due to national considerations, there is a need for a filter where the user nations can exclude sensitive data from the data stream that is shared by the system with the manufacturer Lockheed Martin,” said Defense Ministry senior consultant Lars Gjemble, as cited by Norway’s ABC Nyheter.
Just to your info. Since the Guardian changed ownership it ceased to be what it once was and became the same "bundle of rubbish" as the rest of your and our guided mass media. So far you are almost right. BTW, those who miss the old Guardian may check Off Guardian.
In a private window, all Chromium extensions are disabled. IMHO, this makes the entire system of extensions irrelevant.
I don't use Chrome or any of its forks myself but AFAIK you have to enable extensions for private browsing in Chrome. As soon as you do so, your extensions will be enabled in private mode as well.
I think that's called "Google Assistant". Available on your Google Services-enabled Android device.
Even with "Google Assistant", location services disabled and without any carrier SIM inserted, you can be (and you are) tracked by Google step by step.
... Mark Ermolov and Maxim Goryachy. Great work by them finding these vulnerabilities and disclosing them, these are the kind of vulnerabilities that the NSA would salivate over.
I don't think the author got it right. These are rather the kind of vulnerabilities that the NSA and Intel work out together.
BTW, the Intel ME issue isn't new. Intel was therefore accused before for putting a backdoor in their chips. Intel delivers the processors to manufacturers with the Intel ME turned off and the ability to permanently set changes at a later date.
Nevadans can even purchase machine guns or silencers, banned in other states, as long as they're legally registered and within federal compliance. The state does not prohibit possession of assault weapons, 50-caliber rifles or large-capacity ammunition magazines, according to the NRA.
It begins to affect others when they over there bear arms, it is a constitutional right to them, and they think nobody else has such right and that any differing viewpoint of this matter is a sign of being a wimp etc. It is a real detriment to communication.
Every country has its own laws. This applies for gun control too. I for instance can't order or walk into a store and purchase a Kalashnikov. Firstly, I'm not aware of any store offering such guns and secondary I wouldn't get a gun license for it even so I can certify that I was never convicted and have no record of any mental disease. Fact is, whereas the laws of his country allow him to own such a gun, mine doesn't. So what? Different countries, different regulations and laws. If even different laws in different countries are a detriment for communication between two sane persons then it could be anything else as well.
The ignorance perpetuated by the American legal and educational system is so astounding that it affects my relationship with some people with whom I have had to keep contact.
Hmm, as far as I can follow, it's "The ignorance perpetuated by the American legal and educational system" that affected you. This has little to nothing to do with Americans bearing and owning firearms in their own country.
Since this is one of the longest threads of the sanctuary - one question to all those living in Europe: Whether it's a right, a custom, a hobby, a business or even a necessity as part of American lifestyle - do Americans by bearing firearms affect us Europeans at home in any way?
- In case they don't - IMHO, it's not our business, period. It doesn't make sense to lecture others. We have enough problems of our own. - In case they do - HOW?
