Are we at war? So, why do you need defense? How about peace treaties? Its not like there were no such treaties. And you need no spying, if you're at peace.
No. You want transparent governments. I want them too. But the current situation is not transparent, is it? Did the german BKA reveal the NSA-Spying without snowden? Did Mossad do it? Did the MI6 it?
At the moment everbody spies on everybody and sells it to everybody. It was reported, that some programs of the NSA were used by german intelligence. They cooperated in a way, that they let the USA spy on their people, and asked them for the results in cases, where they were not allowed to spy on the people themselv, because of restrictive privacy laws.
In this situation every govt and agency wins, and the normal people lose.
use adblock edge, abp is getting more and more stuff you do not want. read the blog entries from some time ago. Its not only the acceptable ads* stuff, they are working with ad companies at some more points.
* which is a big deal anyway, because one of the first types of acceptable ads were the sedo-typo-squatting ads on misspelled domains.
sometimes you need to break the law to protect the innocent. then you can (and maybe will) be convicted, but it was morally right, nevertheless. So the point here should be: He broke the law, but he should get clemency. Others may argue (similiar to Turing's clemency), that you should not need clemency, when you were treated unfair. But the difference is, Turings pardon is today, and everyone thinks his treatment was unfair now. Snowdens case is now, and there is no general insight that he's right and the NSA wrong, yet. Many people may have this insight, but the government still sees him as "traitor".
I think traitor should not be used in modern language. This is something like "you worked for the enemy in a war and should be executed" to me. He's a whistleblower, he broke a NDA with his "company". He is not innocent in a legal understanding, but his moral is superior. Just think of the many people, who "just followed the orders", like in nazi germany (sry, godwin). Sometimes you need to act against your legal system to serve a greater good.
Jep. But this doesn't change the point, that every spying should be stopped. And that spying on foreigners is as bad as spying inside your own country.
the kernel hackers were angry about bitkeeper. Then bzr was released, maybe just in that moment, to get the kernel hackers to use it. Then Linus released git, which canonical could not expect. AFAIR, the monotone people had hope, too.
Okay, i did not know its called notes. I read them like a comment thread. Yeah, its not that important, but nevertheless it is information, which is lost(?)
I do not think, its "easy", but of course its possible. But do you really want to work with a project, where you need to copy and paste every filename? And where the author seems to want you to use chinese names for new files? Do you even understand, what a filename means? Maybe you do, i do not. Even with the understanding, non-ascii chars in filenames are still FUBAR. And for coding the lower ascii chars ought be enought to be enough for everyone;).
there was one coder, who really blogged, that github is racist for not allowing chinese characters in project names. What. The. Fuck.
The Projectname is the folder name, and normal special chars like german umlauts are bad enough, but you cannot even type chinese chars without being chinese (while the german umlauts work very well with a compose key).
And on the other hand, coding in another language than english excludes many many people. So somebody who wants to do something only chinese people can use claims a system which cannot cope with chinese chars is racist...

Try Swiftkey. The swype function is way better than the original.

sounds strange. "Go to jail, let them stop doing the right thing, the people will thank you"? What the fuck?

are called human rights, because everyone has them. Even criminals, convicted murderers, child killers. Every human has human rights.
So, snowden is a hero. Privacy is not only meant for the USA.
But maybe he wants to be able to patch the VCS he's using.
You cannot send someone an image, which can be displayed by the user and prevent the user from saving it.

Then bzr was released, maybe just in that moment, to get the kernel hackers to use it.

AFAIR, the monotone people had hope, too.
Maybe it was an attempt to become the kernel VCS, as the kernel hackers already were angry about bitkeeper at this time.
Why is my networkmanager applet asking for access on kwallet?
i guess its only stored plaintext, if you want it to autoconnect globally. And then its required to be plaintext.
> That is an inevitable consequence of people reading in short sessions during the day on an iPhone.
So, it is? Any proof out there?
he finds the nice hardware and software and analyses them. I guess he's clever enough not to use his systems after this.
maybe its a trap.
Maybe the fourth is not there, and he wants the spooks to be paranoid next time.
Okay, i did not know its called notes. I read them like a comment thread. Yeah, its not that important, but nevertheless it is information, which is lost(?)
so, how do i retrieve them? Are they on a seperate branch, or how does github manage them?
You know, i am not speaking of commit *messages*?

oh you. The term fuck is heteronormative, because lesbians cannot really fuck each other!

i guess all commit-comments are lost.
