i think the last decade of developments in US politics have provided everyone with an example of where that goes, though. not passing the "sword" policy because you fear your opponents using it doesn't actually matter; your opponents, when they come into power, may just immediately enact it themselves. and if they can't, there's a good chance they'll first enact a policy that broadswords aren't swords, technically, probably, maybe, totally, according to this one precedent from the year 1835, and then enact a broadsword policy.
bad-faith actors, authoritarians, fascists, etc., are more than happy to watch everyone else pull their punches based on some assumption they'll do the same. they won't.
that being said, i can't imagine the veto rule ever accomplishing anything good on anyone's side, really. it favors obstructionism by its very nature, which is inherently anti-democratic.
the fact that i was paywalled trying to read this pretty much says all one needs to know about where such a sentiment could be coming from. HMMMMMMMM
not reliable, even if it should be. i've seen updates replace the file in a way that clears the read-only flag. same with other clever tricks like making it a symlink.
maybe after they warn him, they'll slam him, and blast him, and maybe even do a little finger-wagging!
the EU is usually pretty tough on corpos breaking regulations, i don't understand why they keep acting like words are ever going to do anything to Elon. he doesn't respond to threats, and no matter how many warnings they give him, nothing changes. come on, Europe, get with the program.
every site i checked lists this at $65+ for the base model... is this even a Raspberry Pi at that point? 2x the performance for 2x the price isn't actually much of a deal, and they stuck to the $35 MSRP so doggedly before (even if resellers tended to jack it up). their competitors must be breathing a sigh of relief.
the big feature i use from premium is the ability to use hardware 2fa. i use a Yubikey to secure it further. worth the peace of mind imo, and Bitwarden has never once failed me in the years i've been using it!
i think the issue with this is that it doesn't carry the broadness of 'queer.' it lists gender, sexuality, romantic minorities... and nothing else. there are things typically thought of as 'queer' that are not strictly one of those three things.
