https://www.bbc.com/news/world-45835584 But also Germany isn’t so long free of the death sentences, although it has never been carried out after World War II.
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-46070519
Just as the death penalty and torture were never officially condemned by the Catholic Church and the universal declaration of human rights was never signed by the Vatican to this day.
At least in Spain, none of the left and communist partyies defends Rusia, but some of the right wings do so. Leftis generally are anti-OTAN, anti capitalists and pro civil rights, democrats and pacifists, far away from the ideolgy of Putin. Rusia currently has a extreme right wing policy with Putin, Nothing to do with the old URSS.
Until now, Rusians secret services (and Israels) only execute dissidents abroad. But we cannot forget that the US continues to use the death penalty, even for minors and the mentally ill. Our “friends” Saudi Arabia is even worse. Therefore we should not be so hypocritical and begin to clean our own ranks first, before judging.
I always laugh loosely when the ultra-right uses Russia as an example to discredit politicians on the left. Putin is known to be on the far right, with like-minded friends in the EU, for example with LePen and similar exemplars. His anti-communist, homophobic and xenophobic and profoundly sexist speeches are well known, so this speech is no surprise.
Yes, but this don’t help the economy. The problem in Ukraine has existed for more than 8 years with the oppression of the pro-Russian population, which has already cost more than 10,000 deaths.
But this has not interested anyone. But now, with an economy on the ground, both in Russia and in the US, now suddenly Ukraine is moving into the center of interest, the US doing business selling weapons to Ukraine, with the promise of making them members of NATO and Russia taking the relief, providing support to the pro-Russian side.
Putin claiming that the US wants to extend its influence to its borders while Biden says that Russia wants to annex Ukraine. To take a simile, what would the US say, when Russia proposes to arm Cuba by including them in the Soviet defense? Ah, okay, we already had this.
Meanwhile, the arms industry of both blocs earning a nose of gold and flourishing the economies of both, and the EU between the sword and the wall, as members of the NATO defending interests of EEUU but not the own.
As I said, to hang them by the balls, both.
I still think that the underlying problem is purely a collapsing economic system. This has always been the case in the capitalist system when, due to some crisis, the speculative bubble burst, always in the quest for infinite growth. This situation always ended with a war, for which any pretext was used, to make a reset, especially by imperialist countries whose largest investments are in the military and weapons field. Destroyed countries with a reduced population are always a huge deal with reconstruction, to start this cycle of infinite growth again. It’s that simple. All of the current neo-liberal governments should be hanged by the balls to do justice to the people who, as always, pay for these excesses with misery and suffering.
I use the window of my salon with a weather station. I don’t like weather apps, because they need your location to work properly, which can be a privacy hole. A cheap electronic weather station has the same or even more accuracy. They work with an sensor outside, to measure humidity, atmospheric pressure, etc. When you need the weather, because of an trip, you can consult the global weather map for you country or for the destination.

In this questions I normally look here to find the app which suits my needs.
Yes, I know, but only a part of the waste can be recycled. It’s better than nothing but not a solucion to eliminate long time radiation waste.
Independent of accidents
The risks are multiples, both environmental and economic. A nuclear power plant has an average life of about 30-40 years, after which dismantling and decontamination can take decades, costs covered by the state, that is, the taxpayer, not the company that owns it.
The storage of highly radioactive waste, to this day, has not been solved, all attempts in salt mines or at great depths failed, meanwhile it is transported from one temporary warehouse to another by public roads (trains, trucks, suitably camouflaged ). Many times they are simply thrown into the sea.
Rivers and aquifers in the vicinity of the power plants significantly increase the temperature due to the exchange with the used cooling water, with important impacts on fauna and flora.
Until a fusion power plant works, nuclear energy is bread for today and hunger for tomorrow, it cannot be a long-term solution, it is energy for the next 30 years and problems for thousands, promoted many times as alibi for the arms industry, to justify the uranium centrifuges for the manufacture of nuclear weapons.
As someone said, the first thing that dies in a war is the truth. Let’s see if I understood the situation correctly: Before the Cuban missile crisis, the United States positioned missiles on the Turkish border with Russia, targeting Moscow.
It was not mentioned, since the Americans are good and Russia is bad. If Russia then intends to do the same by placing missiles in Cuba, World War III almost breaks out, the Americans already with their hands on the red button, but this was prevented at the last moment by a Russian officer ordering the withdrawal.
Now the story is repeating itself with Ukraine, hoping that Russia tolerates NATO with their missils in their border, because the US are the good boys which protect the peace.
In all of this, it has already become more than clear that the EU needs to distance itself from NATO, which until now has only served as a scapegoat to help the United States get them out of trouble in who got involved in their quest to set themselves up as world sheriffs with its operations of infinite ignorance, pretending to eliminate a hornet’s nest with a baseball bat.
Forcing allies to act against their own interests.
In order not to misunderstand each other, I do not want to defend Russia and even less Putin, it is a dictatorship quite to the right of the political sphere, although this is not the issue (there are worse among the allies, starting with Saudi Arabia), but the solution of problems policies with force of arms, which in my opinion only shows one thing, that we are governed by imbeciles without ideas.
The inbuild translator in Vivaldi is from Lingvanex, good for page translations. Tunlookup is a Desktop app, but work the same as an extension do, selected text apears in the translator when you open it with the fast keys or clicking in the icon. For me it works better than Deepl. I think the same, avoid Google is more important as FOSS or not, but is better use FOSS if it’s equal or better than proprietary apps. In Vivaldi I can view YT in it’s feed reader, which use it embedded anonymously, otherwise I use most Piped or the desktop client FreeTube, both use proxie.
Respect Piped, it dont use googlevideoAPI like any other front end do. It’s a OpenSource and selfhosted app, with 2 public instances https://github.com/TeamPiped/Piped Respect a Deepl, its proprietary and freemium, free version is limited. The only valid FOSS translator i’ve found is the desktop app Tunlookup, but it’s only for Win and Mac, maybe in Linux with Wine (Linux version maybe later say dev). https://thephucit.github.io/tunlookup/ All other are very limited, buggy or paid apps.
No, I don’t use TOR, it’s not really more anonym in the ordinary web than other browsers, it’s only slower and less secure. Certainly Chromium is made by Google, but as OpenSource, the script can be modified, well as degoogled Chromium or let the user decide which Google APIs need and which not in the settings, as Vivaldi do, because there are also users which need some services for their work. A lot of online services and profesional sites need services que offers Google and which don’t have valid alternatives. Because of this, also Gecko use them, but you have to modify the script to eliminate it, in Vivaldi you can do it in the settings or at least in flags. As you can see, FOSS have advantages for devs, but not so much for a normal user who need certain features for his work, study or activities. Privacy and security has nothing to do if te product is FOSS or not. The normal user need a good tecnical support and devs which respects the need of the user (most features are added by request made by the users in the community of Vivaldi where the devs and even von Tetzchner itself particpate). Nothing to do with the habits of Big Tech and prefab FAQ pages as support, or implement or rest functions, without consens of the users, as FF do… Where are here the advantage of FOSS over a product OpenSource who use 5% auditable and customizable by the user but proprietary code?
You are free to use FOSS and continue to be driven by Big Tech to finance it, if you think this is better. I care more about the ethics towards the user and TOS/PP of the product I use, worse in Mozilla than in Vivaldi. Worse in American products than in European, much worse. All the tracking APIs of Google, FB and others are FOSS, the worst malware is too, Google and MS itself have the most extensive catalog of FOSS and there are still those who believe that FOSS is a guarantee of freedom, privacy, security and ethics. No, it is not at all, perhaps it is for some individual apps or to share new products and developments, which is in browsers, in a market saturated with them completely irrelevant, in these other factors count.
Cheers
The Vivaldi code is 100% accessible by the user and auditable, it is even taught in the community how to modify it, naturally at your own risk. Both Edge and Chrome itself try to mimic Vivaldi’s functions, but not being allowed to fork it (that’s the meaning of ClosedSource in Vivaldi), with a pretty poor result. Releasing these codes, BigTech would have forked Vivaldi, which would have been the end for a small cooperative with a different concept in a market full of abandoned and discontinued projects, which everyone believed that setting their browser as FOSS, simply putting their logo on the Chromium or Gecko would be enough (already more than 70 browsers that ended up like this)
Perhaps the definition of OpenSource requires a review, giving importance in the areas where it makes sense, in the more than 100 different browsers that circulate on the network, it is already irrelevant, especially if then they fall equally into the traffic model with the data of users, because they see that a browser requires an infrastructure, money and maintenance to continue it, apart of a good community.
Mozilla shares data with Coogle, which finances them, Vivaldi has another business model that does not compromise user privacy and also works, in a small company owned by its employees, strictly subject to and exceeding EU privacy regulations that in US companies do not exist.
Who is more capitalist and who is more ethical in their approach? Vivaldi, as the only browser company, is active in campaigns against surveillance advertising and active against Google’s tracking tricks. FOSS FF is conspicuous by its absence there, how strange. Check out Jon’s interview with Linux reps and why Manjaro and FerenOS use the ‘ClosedSource’ Vivaldi currently as the default Browser, other distros will surely follow. https://lemmy.ml/post/80937
It isn’t so, we need to work against surveillance advertising, this is the underlying problem, not the browser engine, apart uservivaldi.css is full configurable, it’s not a simple Chromium like others.
Also Firefox, although in some points more private than Vivaldi and in others less, creates income with surveillance advertising, that is, in collaboration with Google (Alphabet INC and NEST), APIs that in Vivaldi are optional and can be deactivated in the configuration or already they are removed by the devs, but not so in Firefox. What is missing I can put with a catalog of extensions that is ten times that of Gecko.
I also use Firefox for some things, but I don’t really see it as better or more private. But much more basic. Regarding TOR, it is a browser capable of accessing .onion networks, but apart from this, using it without VPN leaves you much more exposed there than with FF or Vivaldi on the normal network, this is not its function. That is to say, using it in the normal network, it is only slower, but it does not protect one iota more, it is a common mistake to believe it. You can check it on Browseleaks.
In Vivaldi this is also blocked by the inbuild ad and trackerblocker (same filters as uBO and more.). But how much user know this? The most use Chrome or Edge, using FF because they think it’s the most secure, but searching with Google (default in FF, which also send data to Alphabet (Google).
Now Google try another dirty trick with the Trending API to profile the user, same as with Idle and FLoC before.
While surveillance advertising is legal to create revenue for these companies, there is not going to be a truly free internet and a permanent war between Google & co and developers who remove these attempts from the users which take privacy seriously. Cookies since time ago are not a problem, tracking and profiling the user are much more sofisticated, there are pixel tracking, fingerprint, CSS exfill, CDN, among others, even scripts to access cam, mic, keyboard and mouse. Worse in mobile.
They don’t need your name to track and identify you. Se tracking tecnics used in Big Tech sites. Only TowerData log everything you post there, using it to profile you,
Aso MS, FB uses pixelAPIs, Google geolocations and compare datas from other sites you visit which use Google APIs and analytics, also from Alphabet and NEST, also Google companies. Reddit is the oposit of Lemmy in anonymity. Instagram and WhatsApp naturally have nothing to do with anonymity or privacy, none of the Zuckerbot sites respect this.
Look in the Browserleaks and see what Data can be seen by a website if they want and if you don’t use a protection more than ad/trackerblocker. (Datas shown in my case are all wrong or N/D, only true that I live in Spain (if I don’t use a VPN) and don’t use a Touchscreen. But it has needed a lot of settings which a normal user don’t do or not even knows.
Anyway it’s better to avoid this sites.
Reddit and anonymity? 🤣 Reddit even pass user data to Facebook and worse, TowerData, the last even uses keylogger.
https://themarkup.org/blacklight?url=reddit.com
Data to
https://themarkup.org/blacklight?url=Neustar.com
and
https://themarkup.org/blacklight?url=TowerData.com
This mean, all big tech nows the data from reddit users
Agree with this, naturally requires vigilance. But these, trolls, spamers and similar fauna, cannot be avoided by adding an email to the registry. Spammers can perhaps be avoided by simply waiting an hour before sending the registration confirmation, since spammers often use temporary emails that expire earlier.
I’m not talking about trolls, I’m talking about Nazis and these guys with fixed ideas, by definition, are never luminaries, less if they are simple guys and not rich people, the latter almost always only sympathize with fascism, because it is the political orientation that most favors the savage capitalism that favors them.
For the rest, the waving flags with the svastica tattooed can be seen as follows https://i.imgur.com/kqHNjpv.gif
It’s very complicated to build a good translator, it’s not only that you need a rich diccionary for every language, also the rules, sintaxis and ortography of each of them. Because of this it needs many years of development. That is the reason because a lot of FOSS projects they just threw in the towel or they use Google or Bing APIs, and that only acceptable translators are found among proprietary apps, even paid ones (Deepl, which in it’s free version is pretty limitated in vocabulary)
There isn’t any good FOSS translator app, most projects are discontinued, there are all very limitated or use also the Google Translate API. The only you can use a Google/ Bing/Yandex front-end Opensource, like Lingva Translate or Simply Translate. In any case the best in these type of apps, read the TOS and PP and select the one which fits the best for you. https://alternativeto.net/software/google-translate/?license=opensource&p=2
