In our country, we use QR code payments. Currently, we have agreements to use this payment method with several countries in Asia. But it’s still infuriating because most online payment and banking apps require Google Play Services.

Not only US credit cards, we also need online payment alternatives. And the most annoying thing is the google play services requirements for every single app, just like this one as an example

I heard a similar story from a friend of mine, that the c-levels at his office only wanted to achieve faster development rather than proper development. And he was worried because the system built by the devs team had become bigger and complex, and he didn’t know how to track down bugs in the source code.

yeah it’s not easy, but doable. It takes a lot of effort if you have an authoritarian government., and the Iranian government is a very bad example. Probably they should be more serious, reorganize and develop strategies to fight the government, because demonstrations are ineffective.

And communications is very important for this, that’s why the Iranian government (as well as other authoritarian governments) wants to cut off internet connections.

Also people need to build a mesh network system and use instant messaging service that does not require an internet connection, such as Briar.

Would love that, but it’s a hard task, since telemetry is baked into Android OS, not to mention in almost all apps in the Play Store.

You can use Briar, BitChat, or Bridgefy to communicate, without having internet connections. I’ve only tried Briar, which works with cell networks, wifi, also bluetooth.

We had a Little Ice Age in the past, When the average global temperature is around 0°C

Now, if we look at the chart of average global temperatures based on ice core data…

This story is really poor and badly reported, as it doesn’t explain WHY the Environmental Protection Act 1990 has these fines in place and why what this women did was wrong. Instead it’s a clickbait story that implies the woman is a victim.

That has already been explained in the article. 👀

Section 33 of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 makes it an offence to deposit or dispose of waste in a way likely to pollute land or water, including pouring liquids into street drains.

It isn’t the free-meals-programme that’s the problem, it’s the implimentation of it that’s the problem.

It’s already a problem since begining, costing up to 1 trillion rupiah or 60 million US dollars per day. And the money flows to high-ranking officers and officials through foundations that have kitchens that cook free meals.

but the police said they were flown by professionals 👀

I wonder, are drone sightings in NJ still active? 🤔

I‘m not sure if I would call the turmoil in Nepal pro freedom or against corruption per se.

nah you’re mistaken

Anger over corruption and nepotism fuel Nepal’s deadly protests over social media ban

Who these other group (the infiltrators ) were remains unclear.

these are replies to the message from Indonesian

It turns out that a lot of false information was deliberately spread, and several groups in Nepal tried to hijack the demonstrations carried out by Gen-Z. They incited the masses to vandalize and burn buildings.

This is somewhat a bit different from what happened in Indonesia, where armed forces intelligence infiltrated, incited, and mobilized the masses to carry out vandalism.

I hope you guys doing well

Using falsely visas is SK’s fault, but raiding $7.6 billion plant with excessive force is too much. They could have given a warning and time to clear up the visa paperwork beforehand, but they didn’t.

Some of the detainees had entered the country unlawfully, while others arrived on temporary visas or through a waiver program that does not allow employment, according to Steven Schrank, the lead Georgia agent of Homeland Security Investigations.

Attorney Charles Kuck, who represents two detained workers, told AP his clients arrived under the visa waiver program and were in the country legally for tourism or business. He said one had been in the U.S. for only two weeks and the other for 45 days, both planning to return home soon.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) spokesperson Lindsay Williams told AP that some individuals were detained due to prior criminal records and added, “Once citizens have identified themselves, we have no authority” to detain them. Hyundai stated Friday that it believed none of its direct employees were among those detained and said it was reviewing its practices to ensure legal compliance by contractors and subcontractors.
