That's it. Of course being anti-fascist or anti-capitalist are some of the main talking points of left wing protesters and sure, there might be groups of organised protestors. But there is no one organisation behind it all and that is the misconcenption many people have when they hear the word Antifa.

No one should be afraid or ashamed of claiming to be anti-fascist, just because some people who have claimed to be that have not acted ethically!

It's really not an issue with flatpak itself, it's the maintainers who give permissions that are not restrictive enough. It's understandable because it makes it easier to package and maintain.. but it also kind of makes the whole concept useless.

What I personally want is apps which are as, if not more restricted than mobile apps.

There's much more that can be done as well, I really highly recommend taking a look at eBPF!

You can deconstruct any given sound wave into its partial sine waves. This is typically done using a Fourier Transform algorithm (FT).

Of course, we can also do it the other way around, create a signal out of many sine waves. In practice, this is called additive synthesis.

Instruments not only sound different because of the timbre. Another thing to look at is the loudness over time, e.g. when plucking a string. We usually do this with an ADSR representation (Attack, Decay, Sustain, Release).

Knowing these chracteristics is enough to recreate an instrument with a synthesizer. Of course, it gets more complex when there are inharmonics and if they are irregular (different depending on each tone). That's why synthesizing instruments realistically is a pretty time consuming science.

It haunted me for some time after because I never expected something like in the movie inception to be possible in real life.

So no, it's not only republicans and Trump that get "cancelled".

I can only assume that they didn't read and learn enough about the subject before throwing money at it...

I would imagine that Citadel can simply force one of their partners like Robinhood to do anything by threatening to cut them off from the market entirely.

I think their main goal now is to make sure that the lawsuits and fines they will be hit with will cause them to loose less than a short squeeze in this stock would eventually have.

But all of this is just speculation. I don't actually know anything about the stock market, I started reading about it two days ago. I don't want to "conspire" or anything like that, just my theory.

I am not trying to conspire, genuinely curious.

What we need instead is more control on what can be accessed with javascript. Things like screen and window size, locale etc. should all be spoofable and configurable by default. We also need a sophisticated firewall and control matrix right in the browser.

I can already do a similar thing for mobile apps on android. I spoof what permissions they can use and what data they actually get. That can include sophisticated things, such as stripping EXIF data from any image before an application gets access to it. Or a simple popup that asks whether an application can access the clipboard once.

I can't even fathom how most people live without such finegrained control. The only hope is a new browser that respects the user from the beginning.

What WSB daytraders are trying to do is to bleed out these hedge funds by buying in and holding. The stock doesn't even have to increase and the damage to the big hedge funds is already happening, see the situation that Melvin Capital is in. To those who participate it is a david vs. goliath situation.

The thing is, what they are trying to do is not that dumb and actually quite interesting, but they won't get anywhere by remaining "civil". They need this to spread and be on the frontpage of Reddit constantly. Negative or positive press helps, because more regular people want to participate if they hear about it.

I think that this will go down in history. Constant timeouts, organised selling at certain intervals, unnatural spikes, we've yet to hear about the shady stuff that keeps this stock from surging even faster considering the current "virality".

I can see why someone had the urge to build this seeing as this capitol riot was perhaps the biggest threat to american democracy in recent years. What really irks me though is not only how many people brought their phones but also how many actively posted and boasted about their participation on social media.

There is a social media site called "Clapper" that is kind of like TikTok but describes itself as a "free-speech" alternative. Naturally, it is pretty much filled to the brim with conservatives. When the capitol riot happened, hundreds of videos from the event appeared on Clapper. But Clapper acted quickly and seemingly took down all of the videos with geolocation data close to the event at that time. Now, almost nothing can be found there about it.

But the platform is still filled with conservatives who post videos of their laptop screens about the Q conspiracy and "encouraging" videos where they ensure each other that Biden is not yet president and it is not yet over. They seem very technologically illiterate and also very unconcerned about how easily they could get themselves fired for racist or conspiratory content, because they think that this "platform" unlike Twitter and Facebook is somehow on their side. They don't realise that social media platforms cannot advertise when their content isn't "clean" and thus act in their own interest when they ban this type of content, and not in the interest of some opposing party.

So honestly, I think this is just the beginning of such projects, because somehow the people who would do something as ridiculous as storming the capitol keep documenting their crimes and releasing the material themselves... they make it extremely easy for any political opponents.

This is because that way it is healthier in the long term. The goal isn't to be able to lift a lot in a short period of training time. It is usually to consistenly stay healthy going forward.

But again, that's just my experience. I disagree with you anyway, I even think it would benefit the workforce if there was a third "weekend" day. I think that that would reduce stress and thus increase productivity.
