Most compromised passwords are used by script kiddies in mass attacks, not targeted attacks by elite hacking squads. If a password fails verbatim, they just move on to the next compromised account of millions, not develop pattern recognition software to try to figure out replacement candidates for each website.
So like the same 50% opposition as in the US. This kind of seems like we’re all living under the same propaganda and international political machines.
Republicans are saying the same thing.
“Venezuela for the American oil companies will be a field day because it will be more than a trillion dollars in economic activity.”
“American companies can go in and fix the oil rigs and everything that has to do with the Venezuelan petroleum companies, with oil and the derivatives.”
“The Venezuelans have the largest reserves of oil in the world, more than Saudi Arabia. This is going to be a windfall for us when it comes to fossil fuels.”
They’re just saying it out loud.

That’s just where you put programs that sound good but no one wants to spend the money to actually accomplish them. 2050 might be the end of the world, but it’d be because all the stuff we needed to do to head it off were given “we’ll get to it eventually” deadlines.
Summary of the people quoted in the article about “Gen Z” protests:
They’re just trying to coopt the other successful revolutions by people who are actually protesting for generational change, not just “do Boomer politics for people of means”.
From an Al Jazeera reporter:
Monica Cruz, an AJ+ reporter in Mexico City, said it was likely that the opposition was behind the protests in the Mexican capital.
“We are having a hard time believing that this is an organic protest. Especially from young people. We don’t want to say that Gen Z is a monolith. There are young people in every side of the political spectrum,” she said.
“But there’s not a lot of young people out there on the streets and we are thinking that may be a reflection or a sign that this is not really coming from the young people. Because we’ve seen protests here in Mexico City against the genocide in Palestine, for example, and we’ve seen young people by the thousands marching in the streets.”
The Peace Prize has never been about whether you’re smart. She’s a pro business right winger. She wants to be the puppet fascist.
Jesus. “Residents gathered corpses from the woods”. The cops didn’t even have an official operation to collect all the people they killed.
And the Nobel committee is sanctifying her as a saint of peace and democracy and her positions as inherently moral.
It seems like a very classical liberal move to shy away from outright embracing the fascists, but thinking if they just support them where their interests converge they can guide them from the shadows to deal with their problems.
It also just feels weird to make a choice that itself is likely to promote war. Trump is seemingly too stupid to immediately capitalize on this, but raising Venezuela’s dictatorship up to being the most important dictatorship in the world and then praising someone in favor of military intervention by a country currently trying to spark a war for repressive purposes seems incredibly irresponsible for a committee seeking to promote “peace”.
The option is right there in the article:
Under provincial law, Ontario has the power to seize the whales to ensure their safety – recouping any costs incurred when the park is sold.
Which is not necessarily related to this crime. Antisemitism is not a unified ideology where decreasing the prevalence of one form will impact the safety of Jewish people from another.
So far we don’t have any information on the attacker’s motive. Right-wing antisemitism is more commonly violent and isn’t going to be impacted by a change of leadership in Israel.
I agree it’s iffy, but from comments elsewhere on Lemmy the boycott had gone international.
Ellison’s wealth has surged after [Oracle], in which he owns a stake of 41%, reported better than expected financial results.
This is the most surprising information in this article. Oracle isn’t a company I’d expect a price surge at. They provide some commonly used software, but nothing that would have a sudden surge in value, and I’m someone who’s looked at cloud resources before, and they weren’t even in my list of places to check. A crowded market with limited potential for innovation just doesn’t seem like something that justifies a huge price surge.
Feels like the stock market isn’t a real place.
Why is the Secretary of State even the one making a statement? Was Hegseth too drunk?
Implied in this headline is that it wouldn’t be apology worthy if they killed a guilty prisoner by denying medical treatment.
When was the last time you used a global map for navigation?
It’s not even terribly good for that, as when traveling at global scales, most of us travel along great circle paths that end up looking wrong on the Mercator protection.
We’re on a message board giving our opinions. You’re happy to definitively say what is and isn’t free speech then come back with a dumb response about how the court will decide whether a contradictory opinion is valid. I’m not talking to the UK courts. I’m stating a principle, which is already being violated by this anti-free speech government. Law does not determine correctness.
That’s a crime for the people who broke into a base, not a reason to ban an entire organization. Lots of activist organizations have had members do illegal things. If that’s all it takes for the government to ban them, that’s an easy bar to manufacture and/or selectively activate.
Mainstream media does so much normalizing of Trump. It’s just “reshaping diplomatic posture for (undefined by the newspaper) ‘America first’ priorities” rather than firing public servants to install regime loyalists to threaten non-white governments.
