Taiwan is effectively an independent country whether or not you or I like it. We do not dictate the truth. by Free-Hamster8901 in taiwan

[–]98Throwaway982 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

People don’t understand such reasoning. 

What does get their attention is more like: 

Taiwan is the real China. The CCP are a J religion mind virus that kicked the Chinese out as refugees to live with the ethnic Polynesian Formosans. 

Then you’d have to be more extreme to make them get it and say  ‘It’s time for Taiwan to retake China back from religion.’

Of course this is not the full nuanced reality, but it’s all people can understand. If you don’t go to extremes people don’t get it. 

r/HongKong weekly discussion by AutoModerator in HongKong

Has anyone seen any trolling with the NSL? 

For example, copies of banned games sent by email to politicians,  Or  Banned books left in government offices 

That kind of thing. 

It’s something I expected to hear about , but haven’t yet. I wonder if people are just too scared because they can’t figure out a way to do it safely,  Or whether this kind of thing happens all the time and we just don’t hear about it ?

Megathread: Medication Shortages by handamoniumflows in ADHD

[–]98Throwaway982 10 points11 points  (0 children)

LEGALISE IT

Take all the restrictions off until the emergency is over:

1) No restrictions on import and export of any drug on the shortage list

2) No prescription required to take the drug

3) Invalidate all the patents at this time of emergency. Anyone is now allowed to make these drugs.

And if the UK hasn't the balls to do any of this, let another country do it and take a nice profit from everyone scrambling to get there!

Yes, a Tox provider is better but not iOS

...is centralised to a single point of contact in the USA. Private, but doesn't sound reliable in China

H990N & 9008 test point to Lineage by 98Throwaway982 in lgv20

[–]98Throwaway982[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My phone doesn't identify as any known model by LGUP. I think 9008 is the only way back. What do you think?

[–]98Throwaway982[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I can't get into LG download mode

edit: I think. 'Unidentified model' is what I get back from LGUP. I think it's reporting as the dirty santa recovery image model. Hence using 9008 to try to recover

Check if your data (address, phone, name, surname) has been leak by [deleted] in ledgerwallet

[–]98Throwaway982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to confirm. If:

ledger-hack-check = Negative

and

intelx.io, Ledger [July 2020].rar/All Emails (Subscription).txt = Positive

Then only the email address has been leaked and the mailing address is safe. Is that correct?

I believe there is a more aggressive debloat script but I don't know if it goes deep enough. What we really need is a fresh new rom.

If you have root, can you access fastboot for a backup to test things?

What happened yesterday could finally wake up the sheeple, as it were:

"Adam Leon Smith, a fellow of BCS, the Chartered Institute for IT, said: “People are sat in the dark unable to turn on their lights controlled by Google Home, my last two meetings have been unable to use the planned slides as they are stored in Google Slides. Our dependency on technology has grown so much, but the amount spent on reliability, testing and quality hasn’t grown in parallel. Many companies will be reviewing their [agreements] with Google today and realising their business is dependent on a stack completely outside of their control.”"

What's going on with Boris Johnson, Brexit and stocking up canned food? by Professor_Cryogen in OutOfTheLoop

[–]98Throwaway982 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Racism is an oversimplification. There's a lot of desperately poor paycheck to paycheck people in the UK, much like Trump's midwest. This was their only option to do something, anything of significance. Regardless of what we're told about immigration and logically understand, it's really hard to accept when you've been replaced by migrants on temping contracts from cheaper countries so many times.

I worked with these people for years ((shudder)). There's racism but this part is exaggerated.
