“Talking chimps destroy own planet, and themselves”

More like “All chimps listens to the most charismatic chimps even though they are narcissistic idiots and that leads to their destruction”

You think someone just got confused between the ugly guy, the tower and the top position and that is how we ended up in this mess?

Also would help in general to cite English language sources in a discussion that happens in English.

There is a 100% effective solution to ending wars on planet Earth, most people are just opposed to the end of the human species for some reason.

So they stole all the cookies a single news website set in the browser of one user?

“lawmakers” seem like an inappropriate term for the kind of enemies of the general population who usually demand these kinds of measures.

if you give your soldiers food, they become weak and die

Something tells me that is not what you meant to write here.

Funnily enough we managed to make companies so much worse that the family owned medium sized (think a few hundred employees) companies run by the younger generation of the family often look better than the average company run by a CEO hired specifically for that role from a large pool of potential candidates. Most likely because they actually have some long-term thinking left.

One of the earliest times Musk appeared in the general public awareness was his Hyperloop crap and that was already designed to sabotage rail in favor of cars so he has always been like this, some people just didn’t want to notice back then.

Don’t forget that they are literally being lead by a political movement named after the history denying idea that they were “great” at some point and want to get back to that (never mind the other lie that the leaders of the movement don’t actually want to get back to any particular point in history despite the name)

And, here is the important part, those rich people need that money so their high score wealth is bigger than that other rich person’s high score like wealth, not for mundane reasons like improving their quality of life or anything.

“Never forget” is great and all but from a German perspective it seems to not be enough. It is much more important to make sure the same or very similar things do not happen again, not by China and not by any other nation. Otherwise you end up like we did here in Germany where decades of “never forget” lead to very similar sentiments being expressed by a new major party but since things are slightly different (e.g. the “never forget” was always phrased to be about Jews, this is more about foreigners in general) people seem to allow themselves to ignore them.

This means that Israel presently relies on an external backer for its security (the US).

Makes you wonder if Israel is trying to grab as much land as possible and eliminate as many people who might have competing claims on that land as possible before the US collapses economically (and with that their giant military budget) now that Donald Trump is doing his best to make that a reality.

Presumably in terms of numbers most of those are single use so think of them more as ammo than as aircraft.

Tor exit nodes could also identify you if they cooperate with some of the websites you visit (the way e.g. a government could force them to).

If you have a HTTP fallback on HTTPS failure that might work, but only if the site doesn’t use HSTS and this is the first request on that client. I skipped over HSTS preloading in my earlier explanation which also addresses this issue for sites on the browsers list at least.

Only if you start with HTTPS but browsers have favored HTTP for backwards compatibility as the default protocol when something is entered in the address bar until very recently (less than a year for any browser to do that by default via HTTPS). Usually users don’t notice because websites redirect to HTTPS but technically a MITM attacker could just redirect you somewhere else.

Unless websites use the very latest version of SSL at the very least the hostname you connect to (the Server Name Indication field) is visible. As are your DNS queries unless you use DoT or DoH or DNSCrypt or some similar encrypted DNS protocol.

Until very recently most browsers also defaulted to using http for any address you typed into the address bar without a protocol so your first request was HTTP and could redirect you to an entirely different website. DNS spoofing would work just fine with this since the website you actually connect to over https after the redirect is already attacker controlled and has a certificate for hat attacker controlled domain (e.g. with replacement unicode characters that look virtually identical to the original website domain name).

The router can also see your Mac address so they might have a unique identifier to track you across open Wifi networks (if we are talking commercial country-wide installations run by one company).

Many gaming protocols also do not use TLS encryption since they rely on UDP and while there are encryption variants for that gaming is often unreasonably optimized for speed over everything else.

So in summary, in general, yes, the network you are connected to can be dangerous and can learn some information about your network usage.

Immediate? Immediately after not being active in this thread before?

And accusing me of that particular fallacy makes no sense either considering my post merely pointed out that the person I responded to did not have a great point in trying to catch anyone in an inconsistency between their treatment of the US colonization vs. the founding of Israel.

The big difference is that an atomic bomb would still be useful once it is revealed while this would likely be significantly less effective.
