Edit 2: According to Randall Munroe (to lazy to find the source), you could theoretically store one word letter per bit. That would give us up to ten two million books.

I don't see how that is possible, I think it is be one letter per byte.

Bit only represents one state 1 or 0, or true or false. It is too little information to store a letter.

The biggest problem with communism is not the socialism, it is the totalitarism that is required for it to function. And that's the part that kills people.

Now that Russia and China aren't even communist, it clearly shows what they are truly after.

LOL I see now. Thanks. Looks like my issue is not caring about both franchises.

I don't get it (maybe because of the potato quality)

So in my case, something broke with intune. I was told to use office.com for time being.

While that works, when I tried to call it told me that I should use chrome or edge.

This goes with other changes they did to chromium. Google claims it is to prevent bots, but it really is a crackdown on ads blocking and any other "tampering" with their websites.

If you care about keeping web free, you should stop using chrome and its derivatives and switch to Firefox. They are believing that Firefox user base is low and websites can simply exclude FF and force it to implement it as well.

Exactly, nothing changed about them.

This week I learned that online version Microsoft Teams outright refuses to make calls of it runs on Firefox. They are doing the same exact shit they did two decades ago.

Lemmmygrad supposedly is for people who support communism, but when talking to them, they really are supporting totalitarian countries which have nothing to do with communism.

The link doesn't work, how about posting the text of the article?

[-] takeda@szmer.info 3 points 1 year ago

The thing is that often those people created that climate. This was the case with hitler and today similar thing is being done with trump.

Of course not. Putting the coin the other way could break the machine and then you won't get anything.
