Neoliberalism is reaching its natural conclusion, coupled with the gradual fall of colonialism, is going to lead to a permanent crash for the working class.

While Trump is being loud, the project to divide the US working class by ethnicity has been ongoing always, and began ramping up this century.

It will be required as all production is centralised within a handful of families. And the global south can no longer be relied on for cheap resources and manufacturing for middle class treats.

The US doesn’t have a union presence, nor does it have understanding of left politics. Conditions will get worse and worse every decade.

On the non-state-security side:

Not anything near what it’s like in the US. There are no incentives. “If you decide to blow the whistle you had better be financially independent”

“Rome wasn’t built in a day”

Has an entirely different message to me. It’s often used as a reminder to be patient, not to loose your temper, etc.

On the day Rome was founded Romulus killed his brother Remus and marked out the city of Rome, construction starts. This is my initial reaction.

The next thing the Romans, a group of men (probably criminals), did after founding Rome was to raid their neighbours and kidnap their women. Rome then makes war for the better part of a thousand years, eventually subjugating the known world.

I think it’s better used as a reminder subjugation starts out in small measures. “Parliament just passed antiterrorism laws, I’m sure they’re to protect us” “Rome wasn’t built in a day”

Start your own business which has low overheads.

Worst comes to worst you loose a little on insurance and paper advertising

Tortilla chips, can of baked beans, half jar of salsa, microwave, top with hummus

Savory oatmeal.

Rolled oats with cold soy milk. Microwave 2-3 mins. Add chilli oil, spice paste, or ramen seasoning.

Tasty and not unhealthy. The plan is to prevent unhealthy food leading to a negative feedback loop.

They’ve been asking us not to track them with cookies, so we’re tracking them with fingerprints

Surely the gdpr has something to say about this. Or did the US forget the rest of the wold exists again?

That’s what’s so concerning about the case. The USA tried to persecute an Australian citizen working out of the EU for publishing information.

As he is not a US citizen he was not able to use the X amendment to free speech.

As a terrorist they could torture and kill him without covering anything up.

He didn’t leak, he published.

If precedent was set they could kidnap anyone from sovereign countries based on US law

I think medical advancement could be as dramatic this century was in the last. However, patent law is likely to hold us back

This comment seems contentious. Are the differences in opinion political? An ideological opposition?

• Taiwan, officially the Republic of China (ROC)
• China, the Peoples Republic of China (PRC)

Thank you for your comment, it provided more context than the article

Writing down a crypto wallet key in a self hosted password manager on a highly encrypted self hosted drive which degraded. Pretty much the same with the photos, if I didn’t encrypt my backups I would have been able to recover more files.

Anonymous sex in bathrooms has become almost nonexistent in my city since Grinder.

I’m sure there are a few beats left, but nothing like it used to be.

Dogging seems to have picked up, but I assume the married are organising these affairs online.

I agree our media is incredibly controlled.

However, this summer didn’t feel different, it got to 45C as normal in Perth, the heatwaves did not feel longer or worse.

Maybe we’re frogs in water but I’d say such an article would not engage the public
