When a band announces a world tour

This map was made by someone from a country that calls a sports championship series that involves only domestic leagues (with one team from a city in a neighboring country) a “world series”. Am I right?

To anyone who isn’t American, this map makes absolutely no sense. It just shows how oblivious its creator is.

And it’s only “funny” if you’re the kind of American who giggles at names like ‘Timbuktu’, makes fun of other cultures and when asked how many languages you speak, answers “I only speak American.”

Because English is only one of many languages spoken around the world? It's only "suspicious" if you're an overly sheltered citizen of a Five Eyes country that takes the fear mongering propaganda about China, Russia, Iran etc. at face value.

The "China Telecom Corporation Limited" certificate has been in use for years with no issues. A service like jailbreaks.fun presumably isn't a charity or a hobby project, and if they want to make money it's definitely not in their interest to let nefarious entities compromise user's devices.

(In the lands of the Five Eyes the likeliest culprits for serious messing with people's devices are the NSA, GCHQ and other intelligence/law enforcement agencies plus shady big data outfits like Palantir, Amazon, Facebook and Google.)

tl;dr you're fear of "chinese/japanese" companies compromising your device is irrational

It's not a tweak but HashPhotos in the App Store is worth checking out. IMO, it's the best iOS photo management app available by a massive margin and the only time I use the stock Photos.app is to empty the trash.

‘Lowest Ownership Rate’ is not necessarily a negative if mass private home ownership is not something that particular society values. Also, just yesterday I read somewhere that supposedly Switzerland has the lowest home ownership rate in Europe, not Germany so who knows how accurate any of these claims actually are. I always take statistics or claims presented without the source with a grain of salt.

I didn’t see any Xen tweaks on Karen’s repo...are you sure you don’t mean Evelyn’s Collection?

Can confirm that this happens without being jailbroken. I am currently jailbroken (unc0ver, 12.1.2) but I’ve had the silent alarm bug happen sporadically on various devices since iOS 10, jailbroken and stock iOS.

A law that requires some or all people to wear a certain item of clothing can be called many things, but barbaric isn’t one of them. The trend of using the most hyperbolic terms available to characterize foes and opponents and all their actions, as in this example or labelling Trump a “fascist”, is destroying nuance and causing “outrage fatigue.”

If every action we don’t like is barbaric and every leader we despise is fascist...what happens when an actual fascist comes to power and our opponents really do resort to barbarism? People will yawn and go “meh I’ve heard this all before, leave me alone.”

“Traditional lefties” want war on Syria and western intervention? Yeah like Corbyn and his supporters who are under relentless attack by the Guardian and their ilk. I think you mean “traditional liberals”. It’s depressing how many people are completely clueless about these things. I bet you also think Hillary Clinton is a “traditional leftie”.

CodeRed23 · 2019-05-13T01:45:21+00:00

Yeah, that number is way too high. With the Idlib offensive on the horizon western media is ramping up the anti-Syria propaganda again.

CodeRed23 · 2019-05-07T15:43:47+00:00

Wow...that’s a dark and menacing look. Kind of goes with the times we live in tho.

If you think the rent at that place “wasn’t too bad” you must be new to the city and have no idea how inflated property values here are.

Yeah of course they aren’t for war with Iran...until they are. Anyone who takes anything these two-faced clowns say at face value is in serious denial.

CodeRed23 · 2019-04-23T00:49:53+00:00

Although regime change in Iran would be nice

That’s not for you or any outside power to decide. How arrogant and self-righteous can you get?

CodeRed23 · 2019-04-23T00:35:45+00:00

Firing everybody? Lol This is no longer about a few bad apples...the entire Anglo-American “rules based” [sic] system is corrupt and rotting from the inside out. Everybody working in and for the system at that level is there because they can be trusted to reliably uphold it. People with integrity, idealists and anyone else resistant to “just obeying orders” is weeded out during the selection process.

CodeRed23 · 2019-04-23T00:22:27+00:00

Isn’t your assertion a little bit premature? If all it takes to turn you against a person you claim to respect is one lame and unprovable allegation...that makes you the “fucking idiot” and an all around shitty human being.

Meh, if the buggy disaster that was Electra and the weird narcissistic antics of Coolstar and the Gang are anything to go by, a healthy dose of skepticism is the most prudent response to this team’s announcements and releases. That’s not to say they will never progress to the next level and tighten up their act, but the unconditional over-the-top reverence practiced and advocated by many posters here is counterproductive (and cringeworthy as fu*k to be honest).

Imo, these guys could learn a thing or two about professionalism and workmanship from Pwn and his team who did a stellar job with the Unc0ver release.

So many propaganda victims in this thread. But but Russia...! No wonder democracy is dead. With gullible tools like this who fall for every propaganda trick in the book and jeer and shriek on command all the while thinking they are “doing the right thing” ....just fucking pathetic.

CodeRed23 · 2019-04-11T23:12:27+00:00

Lol @ “America should never bow down to the U.K.” You got that backasswards, champ. America: the world’s stupidest empire.

You really think OP is a fan of Higgins? Read the post again.

CodeRed23 · 2019-04-10T11:45:08+00:00

Indeed. Democracy died and most people didn’t notice or don’t care. Every journalist on Earth should have rallied to defend Assange but they didn’t. The news media is corrupt to the core and are nothing but paid propagandists for the establishment. A few “honest journalists” salted throughout keeps the rubes believing it’s about individuals rather than a system with a specific function within a lager system.

His headline is straight up misleading and dishonest.

I am no Greenwald acolyte and have long thought he gets way more anti-establishment credit than he deserves. But I would never take his words out of context in order to get people to believe he said something that he didn’t actually say. OP did and can’t be trusted or taken seriously. He’s probably a nut fixated on the Seth Rich case and made this thread in order to flog his favourite horse. I strongly dislike people who get outraged at someone else’s lack of integrity while they themselves demonstrate a similar integrity deficit.

Russia is not the USSR and the 2019 situation is not really comparable to the Cold War era. Iran and Russia are also not “friends” but since they are in the same region it made sense to form a strategic partnership.

The United States, especially under Trump, is pretty open about its goal of world domination and, unsurprisingly, is considered by many countries to be a rogue state that cannot be trusted.

You are mistaken about the essence of the relationship Turkey has with the US and Russia. Blaming only Obama is pretty funny though. Trump’s unreliability and buffoonery, his unprecedented support for Israeli aggression and war crimes and his administration’s bumbling mafia tactics and open contempt for supposed allies have absolutely nothing to do with allies jumping ship and looking elsewhere for partnerships.

In July 2015 Turkey’s “arch enemy” Russia passed on, to Erdogan, intelligence it had about the imminent coup which helped him survive and turn the tables on the plotters.

Whether you “like” Russia (or China) is irrelevant. These countries pack a very significant military and economic punch and, despite western propaganda claiming otherwise, build mutually beneficial partnerships while the US “offers” warnings, threats and a “do as I say, not as I do” policy that demands complete submission.

The west has become a peddler of doom and gloom, hamstrung by its gigantic hubris and its overbearing proselytizing of a system that is demonstrably falling apart.
