Rolling Resistance

So it’s just traffic. “Blocked”, some journalists.

Could you guys please include the name of your country in the title?

It’s not funny that the article doesn’t mention that. Radio Free Europe is a part of the US propaganda machine, an article will be one-sided if it can affect the interests of the US.

I think I prefer “children’s games” to organized crime and wars. Keeps competitve people busy.

Good.

I’d rather see Fairphone expand.

You are talking about hypothetical situations in the organization with around 2694 maintainers. What I find interesting, is that no one in this thread thought it would be good to check if these 11 already contributed something harmful. Instead, it’s just “good, we prevented a bad thing”.

Anyway, your extreme take “ban all Russians because what if” goes much further than what happened in reality (“ban Russians working for companies under sanctions”): https://social.kernel.org/objects/860ef93c-229b-4070-8ee6-cb80d1f51337

I have no problem collaborating with people from any of those countries we should hesitate to put them into influential positions

“I’m an American, and therefore I’m better”

where the government has a larger influence

We’re literally talking about Linux Foundation making these changes to comply with requirements of your government.

But someone from the US is fine?

Should we exclude people from states actively fueling a genocide?

One of the mainrainers had a gmail.

It’s the same issue, although the seeds are unlikely to harm you.

It does, thank you for the tips!

This might be true, but I’m talking about passkeys, that never work :(

Cool, thanks for sharing! I’ll check them out.

No-no, I’m not asking about how you get the files, I’m asking about how you find new music (e.g. a song of an artist you don’t know that is similar to the ones you listen to, or a new album of one of the bands you like).

What’s your browser-Bitwarden setup?

The same flow works for me on desktop (firefox+bw plugin).

I’ve rented my whole adult life, and I don’t mind it. There are downsides, but owning has them too.

And I never got depressed because of renting.

It’s right there in the article.

According to McDonald, “streaming music fraud is not, to be brutally honest, the most glamorous or profitable form of villainy” because “streaming rewards accumulate in tiny micro-transactions.” The only way to get rich is to scale the shady streaming by becoming a business—it seems possible due to similarities in thousands of fake album designs that all the labels McDonald flagged could be under one licensor—but even then, “the larger the scale, the easier it is to detect,” McDonald suggested.

How do you find new music? (if you do)
