They’re not fining Musk. They’re fining X/Twitter.

That doesn’t fill me with amazing confidence.

We do. Same thing for monitor and TV sizes.

Is there anything I need to know about the political affiliations of Jolla / past products / sailfish os before I pre-order this thing?

They worked with and in Russia for a while before the big Ukraine invasion but left immediately after that. If I remember right.

They’re based in Finland, mostly, and some of the founders are ex-Nokia mobile phone people.

If they have any sort of politics, they have been classy enough to keep a sock on it.

So does this mean that a 5" is possible, or that they are going to make it? The 6" model is way too big for me.

Is the 99 € refundable? Yes. Fully.

Well ok, I think I’ll put my money in and we’ll see if they manage to make that reasonably sized model.

This sounds like an entirely good thing! Good job EU!

I watched that part. Putin visibly flinches when he realizes what he said and then for the following few sentences tries to lighten the message down. It’s kinda fun to see him that weak in front a microphone.

He’s so not ready for a war with Europe that he cannot even lie about it.

But headline creators don’t give a fuck about that of course.

I’m currently sitting on a codebase that’s perfectly ok and I have no reason not to open-source it, but it’s 95% generated by AI so I don’t know. Probably I’ll just use it myself like it was an embarrasing sex toy.

Looking at github lately, it seems a lot of people don’t share my reservations.

Many communists distance themselves from the CCP and USSR

Which is somewhat like being a nazi but distancing yourself from Nazi Germany.

Meanwhile USA is fully prepared to comfort Russia.

I don’t think it actually does claim that.

That is true, Taiwan is the real China. But I don’t think we were arguing about names of countries here.

Yeah, and also that one (at least the latest escalation) happened after Russia normalized it. Also a possibility that Russia made it happen to make people get distracted from Ukraine.

Yeah, one would think they’d be europeans then. Funny how that works.

So you mean it’s exactly like China and Taiwan?

Perhaps go with the original.

Russia illegally annexes Crimea.
