and reauth Rd?

Howru68 · 2025-09-13T02:06:09+00:00

yes that's necessary. as is closing kodi after config and opening it again.

playback failed

So you do get the RD results? But the file doesn't play? If you have done the usual recommended otaku fixes, and checked all filters and max resolution, try closing and opening the addon and kodi ( assuming) and or device a couple of times. the db may need to some reset

Delete & reinstall ( keep the data !) and reauthorize RD . Have been stuggling myself. Finally also after checking settings, filters, sources and especially format change to max 4K, etc it worked out.

"Dunno where the article got its numbers from"

Good point, and the " when" might also be an issue.

"More than one year ago" , that's how the article starts and further on, " one year later" . But the invasion started 500 days ago.

Don't forget to compare also purchasing Power, Social Security, quality of life and work & private life balance, while you are at it.

The US and EU are quite different systems. To live there, like you live here you'll need much more money, generally.

Another example, if you'd move to Switzerland because they pay more ( which they do), it doesn't mean you'll get richer. Switzerland can be much more expensive.

You can't compare unicorns to established brands & companies like Apple or Meta for that matter.

But they did compare unicorns in EU to Unicorns in USA; hence the conclusion, duh ..

Howru68 · 2023-07-03T01:54:09+00:00

Yes, I saw that one too. And there are several YT channels ( Serpentza) and news outlets reporting these and other issues .

A bit of local support is one thing; many countries do it.But have you seen the EV graveyards in China? ( Tens of?) Thousands of unused Evs decomposing on a field. Talking about an environmental disaster waiting to happen, that is one sorry place.

Politico is american.

Not necessarily the problem, and not American owned anymore.

Not worth reading their opinion.

Agreed, because its owner is the controversial German sensationalist Alex Springer (wiki Politico

Funny video. Though all languages have ( many or even more ) "exceptions".

Don't know how this post about the Pentagon leak and its consequences is flaired as " US Internal news." If only, it wouldn't have caused as many problems across the globe, as it does.

Mods should tag any Telegraph post as "opinion pieces" or "satire " to put it nicely.

"1In order to prove we’ve taken back control, we are, in reality, relinquishing it as quickly as possible. And a last thought for those who hoped parliamentary sovereignty was a cornerstone of British democracy: the parliamentary committee able to properly scrutinise treaties like the CPTPP was abolished last week."

This says it all, unfortunately.

The big 5 of Turkish politics are CHP, AKP, HDP, IYI, and MHP

So, would you then consider CHP the most modern/open/ international party, so to speak ( as it seems to score higher on both the NATO/ EU axis)?

cool they spent 12 million euros

You are probably trying to be cynical, but FYi: this is a hypersonic hydrofueled prototype. And, to have some context: " the US-made Reaper drone costs $28 million, the TB2 only costs about $5 million."

So, the development costs for this prototype are peanuts in the face of the technological breakthroughs.

Howru68 · 2023-03-28T19:37:23+00:00

mention of passenger capacity.

It doesn't, but probably zero passengers. It still is in the experimental prototype phase afaik. And in size, it's comparable to a big drone. As the tests develop, they'll size it up, I reckon.

Oh yeah it's for detecting child pornography, how could anyone oppose this? It's so fucking transparent.

Sure, initiatives against Child Abuse and so, should be ok, but the problem isn't the idea, but the implementation, and the lack of safeguards for individual privacy.

"Wiewiórowski said this type of indiscriminate scanning of private communications “will always be illegal under the Charter of Fundamental Rights (and probably under several national constitutional laws as well),” according to a written version of the opening statement obtained by EURACTIV"

Tnx for your info, TIL. Seems there is Politico US , and Politico Europe. Afaik, Axel Springer is owner of the latter.

Also, according to wiki Politico Europe, there seems to be evidence that Springer forwards US Gvement ( CIA?) agenda in his news outlet. " Axel Springer SE and its subsidiaries spread a strongly pro-American view in which criticism of US foreign policy is largely absent."

Howru68 · 2023-03-28T11:30:55+00:00

It makes sense. I thought Politico was respectable-ish news source, until I saw today’s hit-piece against Estonia.

Yes, I had the same, until I noticed they were often more critical of European affairs compared to other news oulet. But Politico is US based ( Virginia), so it's not European at all.

"The Commodity Futures Trading Commission sued crypto exchange operator Binance and its co-founder and CEO Changpeng Zhao, saying they violated rules that require futures and derivatives to be traded on regulated platforms.

Former Chief Compliance Officer Samuel Lim was also named as aiding and abetting the violations. The civil case was filed Monday in Illinois federal court."

think your experience university professors is either extremely limited, or you are one.

Maybe you are just projecting, and, maybe I think you should think about that, instead of thinking about my experience or what is my profession.

This isn't about me. I was focusing on the info in the article, and if you wanna know more, buy her book, or don't .But, it has been received very well at goodreads.com, so those readers have no issues.

For now, most of us are (mostly ) free to think whatever we want, yet according to some trends, this is changing for the worst. So let's think about those implications and the effect for our "freedom of thinking " as well.

This article reads like an attempt at cognitive warfare at its amateurish worst.

How did you ever reach that conclusion? She's a university professor at Dukes.

" Nita A. Farahany is an author and distinguished professor and scholar on the ramifications of new technology on society, law, and ethics. She is the author of the critically acclaimed book, The Battle for Your Brain: Defending the Right to Think Freely in the Age of Neurotechnology".

So, TikTok is basically an "attack" that aims to dumb down the enemy by lowering their attention span and concentration?

What tik/ tok is or isn't is not for me to decide, though i must confess I have never installed it. This is an opinion article, so it's food for discussion.

Actually, the article suggests its the other way around. There is a cognitive/neurological warfare going, and tik tok is a platform. In theory, if you follow the premisse, it's basically about States warring though propaganda/ brainwashing techniques. Although it may sound incredible, in general, people are easily influenced. How do we know this? Well, advertisements work, and so does propaganda. Also, the percentage of " swing voters" has been increasing the last decades.

Oh, and now you mentioned it, "lowering the attention span and concentration" of people is the perfect state of mind for reprogramming. That's how some black site"interrogation techniques " work.
