You better not be gearing up to go all Deliverance on us with that story

Ah, good idea putting the fire in the tent, that way the fire will stay warm

The first time I saw a headline about this, just saying that the Supreme Court overturned “the Chevron doctrine” my initial thought was that I have no idea wtf they did but if the votes went 6-3 I know it can’t be anything good.

Much to my consternation I appear to have been right.

What happened to “not wasting any time on me”?

Edit: this dude is having a normal one

Amazing take. Back in the 1920’s you would have looked at the rise of the NSDAP in Germany and gone “not surprised given the jews there”

You’re still trusting that the 1st party javascript won’t be vulnerable to supply chain attacks, though

Fuck Israel, but that being said what the hell does Israel have to do with anything here?

and internet still works… Mostly

That load-bearing “mostly” is doing a lot of work here.

I invite everybody to find out how everything “mostly” works if you disable “most of” javascript – also have fun deciding which parts to enable because you think they’re trustworthy

Whoops, they got their faces eaten by a leopard

I could make one if it wasn’t for my crippling case of being lazy

Loquunturne Latine in ‘Quid’?

That’s the French Navy, not the “EU military”. The EU is not a military alliance, there is really no EU military to speak of, just the militaries of member states who may or may not have any intention or capability of aiding others. Like I said, there are about 60 000 “EU soldiers” under the Common Security and Defence Policy, but they’re more for peacekeeping missions.

NATO is pretty much the closest thing there is to an EU military, as a huge percentage of the member states belong to it as well.

Yeah they could well do a tech transfer of some older models

the EU military

This isn’t a thing. I mean yes we do have like 60 000 soldiers in some rapid reaction force, but there is no “EU military” to speak of.

Worst superpower ever

Not to worry: while the EU may have backed down on the “Chat Control” legislation (again. For now), it’s not the only mass surveillance law in the pipeline that’s being prepared behind closed doors! The “security by design” proposal – which does the opposite of what the name implies – would get us mass scale surveillance and storing of all our electronic communication and not just images, and would require all encryption used in the EU (by us plebs, that is) to be interceptable.

Like somebody said in an earlier article about Chat Control, we need to fight these fascist proposals infinitely many times, but they only have to succeed once.
