Clickbait? The developer is Palestinian/Australian, the app’s audience is global, and it’s not just Palestine-specific. So what’s up with the sensationalised title?

You guys don’t see what they’re scared shitless about? It’s the fear of an EU-based true open source Android fork/competitor.
Also when they say FOSS will not contribute to “economic growth”, they mean Alphabet’s. Greedy pigs.


It’s in the family of paradoxical/recursive humour I truly enjoy.
Kinda like: “I’m the humblest person on Earth!” and “You’re no true Novellist! You can’t exclaim about exclamations!”


Congrats!
My favourite part of that trailer:
YOU HAVE BEEN SELECTED TO VOLUNTEER…
I love it!
Alright. The real entertainment value here won’t be the post itself, because it’s acutely serious social critique wrapped in a meme format.
So I’m gonna keep refreshing the post while sorting by “controversial” as I wait for the real show. 🍿


It was an honest misunderstanding and I asked for clarification before making any assumptions. So not that weird. :)


Oh god. And I thought Amazon’s Mechanical Turk was terrible…
How low can Bezos go? Wtf is wrong with this timeline


They were, factually, Indian.
Whom are you referring to? A specific group/project?


And how does being Indian specifically factor into this? 🤔


I was talking about cooling and a practical example of “working around the rules”.
As for refrigeration in particular: any similar mechanism can do this too. Example: if you can figure out a material that emits IR in the ballpark for that specific range of wavelengths, you can use it as an active shunt.
Also read somewhere before (not sure when or where tbh, but it might’ve been an old school 2000s forum discussion or something) about a way to possibly achieve it via phase change cooling at a molecular scale iirc. It wasn’t viable at the time and we made light of it, but with the material science advancements of today? Who knows. Maybe someone figured it out.


You don’t overcome thermodynamics, but you can work around them. For example:
When you cool something you take heat energy out of it you have to do something with that heat energy you can’t just delete it.
Or you can shunt it into space so that it doesn’t heat the atmosphere on its way out. That’s called radiative cooling and it’s brilliant.
And it can be done at home with household items. See Nighthawk’s YT channel for more info: https://youtu.be/N3bJnKmeNJY
And that’s just one out of many possible approaches. Interesting read: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflective_surfaces_(climate_engineering)


The average consumer doesn’t care because they already made the purchase. Most of them use whatever OS their machine comes preloaded with unless a more tech inclined friend offers alternatives.
The OEMs do the caring, because the OEMs are the ones with the choice. And they notice this shit. So when the average consumer is buying a new machine, they might be offered alternatives to Windows (already happening with some btw), and most customers will see an extra $200 (or whatever how much nowadays) next to the Windows license, and a flat $0 next to the other option: Linux.
Now the filter is reversed, and only the ones who aren’t paying attention (assuming Windows is the default during check out) or actively want Windows will be paying for it
The savvier ones may even wonder what the difference is, and do some research to understand it, and those ones will buy it knowing exactly what they’re getting into. Some will say “I’ll just pick the free OS and install Windows for free”, but even if they decide that, they may decide to boot it up first out of curiosity.
And that’s what really matters: the exposure. Because people talk.


If your goal is ease of use and scaling complexity along with your experience, and you’re planning to use Docker like you mentioned, then I recommend Traefic: https://doc.traefik.io/traefik/
If not, then I recommend Caddy or nginx.
Edit: ducking autocorrect changed “of” to “if”
The irony is delicious
Liar. You also invented abominations like that mite cheese shit. Wie schrecklich!
Edit : and here’s an explicit /s for the ones without a German-adjacent sense of humour.


Why not just weld that shit solid at this point ffs.


Decade of the Linux Desktop. It’s here guys!


Exactly
I’m aware. But it’s not just Palestine being censored, it’s currently anything the current U.S administration doesn’t like. So anything anti-trump/Zionist/Israel/ICE falls into this category.
I’m saying the title is misleading because it could be construed as “a social media app/platform specifically made for Palestinians”, which is what most people that haven’t heard of the app before would assume by reading the title alone.
