Can’t remember the name, but there was a Finn in charge if Nokia who ended up running that into the ground through a series of bad decisions to the point where MS could buy Nokia for cheap. And he ended up in a leading position (might even be that he was CEO, I don’t remember) around the time when MS really accelerated their enshitification focus.
- Comment on Can a person who is a convicted felon/ rapist even get nominated for the Nobel Peace Price? Extra points if you can ELI5 that. 1 week ago:
He was basically in charge of the Cambodian bombing campaign, calling out which targets were to be bombed without much of any intelligence indicating that it was a valid military target.
Also, he was closely tied to the Johnson administration and suddenly he was offered a position in the Nixon administration. While not proven there are a lot of suspicious indicators that he may have intentionally botched the peace negotiations in Vietnam in an effort to give Johnson poor standing before the election so that Nixon could be the one ending the war. In other words; If true he intentionally pr longed the war in return for a position in the Nixon cabinet.

They can, yes. It is worth noting that some recipients were convicted for various “crimes” in their home countries, such as the Chinese human rights activist who won it in 2010.

- Comment on Aged like wine: Frank Zappa on Crossfire turns a debate about censorship into a warning about an emerging fascist theocracy. 1 week ago:
Synopsis: On Crossfire (March 28, 1986), Frank Zappa was invited to debate about music censorship in the wake of the PMRC’s push for warning labels on albums. Instead of treating it as a narrow industry issue, he broadened the discussion and warned that such censorship efforts were a step toward what he called an “emerging fascist theocracy” in the United States.

- Comment on How realistic is it for me to learn Japanese so that I can experience Anime better? How long would it take to learn? Has anyone attempted this? 2 weeks ago:
I tried this during my weeb phase some 20 years ago.
I stumbled across a video lecture series om some torrent site, and despite being very old (fr m the 70s or 80s) it was actually pretty good for teaching everyday japanese.
I never progressed beyond the very basics due to life happening, but it got me far enough that I could at least grasp the general topic at hand. I’m sure I would’ve gotten a decent understanding of the language if I had kept at it.
Japanese is a fairly simple language with easy grammar. From what little Mandarin I’ve learned, I’d say the two are far enough apart that knowing one probably won’t help you much with the other.
- Comment on Are the character names in most Anime real Japanese names or just made up? 2 weeks ago:
At least some are real and common. I doubt this is true across the board, though.

- Comment on Is there or has there ever been information illegal to possess or have? 5 weeks ago:
Nah, this was ages ago. I don’t remember the exact encryption strength, but it was pretty low, even by yesteryear standards. This was a remnant from the age when encryption basically meant cryptography was ruled by whichever government could find the biggest autistic savant.
- Comment on Is there or has there ever been information illegal to possess or have? 5 weeks ago:
Not just PGP, but any encryption strength above a certain level was considered “munitions” from a legal standpoint. Because of this, finding a windows Ssh client was a PITA for quite a while.

I knew how to operate a hunting rifle by the time I was 12, and I’m not even American.
And if you can operate a hunting rifle, you can operate an assault rifle to a reasonable degree. Not much training needed.

Jaywick, a once-thriving seaside village with golden sands that began to fall into disrepair in the 1950s, has long been maligned by outsiders. But many residents, including Millicent, have frequently been documented over the years trying to set the record straight.
