That’s huge
Read the founding fathers! They knew exactly what America the beautiful stood for.
The protection of the opulent minority.

The outset of Vladimir Putin’s full-scale war in Ukraine exposed Russia’s ground forces as incompetently led and beholden to a tyrant in thrall to his own arrogance and neoimperial ambitions. The ensuing stalemate, now well into its third year, has been a strategic calamity for Moscow.
Wat?
What a weird question to ask in response to that comment? What did you mean by it?
Let’s fucking goooooooo!
I think we agree that it’s a both/and situation with economies of scale, so let’s explore Netflix.
The vast majority of energy for Netflix is not in centralized data centers but at their massive number of distribution points. Those distribution points serve a specific problem: end-user-acceptably fast download speeds.
Is that a reasonable problem to solve? Yes, sort of. Instead of people going back to a central server for their content, they go to a regional server. In essence, while end users don’t own their own storage and search infrastructure, the next best solution is a localish solution for the customers in that region.
But what if we just solved the lack of storage and search at home? No profit. So you’ve got that part right for sure
Than encrypting and decrypting for DRM reasons? Yes. But the reason the cloud exists at all is because economies of scale are real.
Streaming itself is the problem. Storage is CHEAP. Every human should be able to have enough storage for their media consumption for their lifetime. There is no need to consume a stream for the same piece of media through your entire life.
I think you’ve got it backwards. The energy cost is real, so economies of scale make sense.
“Building trust” is an abstraction that covers many many activities. The fact that Russia did many things that could have built trust but didn’t is completely lost on you, so you have no ability to question WHY trust wasn’t built as a result of the actions taken. Because if you DID question why, you would see that Ukraine’s transition to a right-wing Euro-centric government entailed it being Russophobic and part of the European project to dominate Russia.

How foolish. Japan violently occupied Korea. After the USA nuked Japanese civilians, they took over Japan’s dominance of Korea, threatening both Russian and China. The USA was internally debating nuking Korea and also invading China.
When the Vietnamese revolted against French colonial rule, the French brutally repressed them, but still lost. The USA came in to maintain that colonial dominance and destroyed Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia, all in positions to threaten China.
The Dalai Lama’s brother has written a book expressing his regrets around working with the CIA as they used the Dalai Lama and his family to threaten China. The USA was training Tibetan terrorists and literally airlifting them into Tibet to create violence and chaos and undermine China.
When China underwent a civil war and the losers fled to Taiwan and established a brutal fascist dictatorship and executed the White Terror, the USA and UK blockaded the island to prevent the civil war from continuing because the West wanted the fascists to win.
It’s real simple, the USA needs to get the fuck out of Asia entirely, they need to stop withdrawing from nuclear treaties, they need to stop occupying Korea, they need to stop training terrorists in East Asia, they need to remove their 600 international military bases, they need to get rid of their immunity for their soldiers from any and all crimes they commit on foreign soil, they need to drop their policy of invading The Hague if a USA official or soldier is ever tried by the ICC, they need to stop trying to undermine MAD and developing nuclear first strike capabilities, and they need to stop brutal sieges of nations all over the world causing shortages of food and medicine.
No risk of taking it as gospel. The only gospel I need is the ever developing analysis of historical materialism, and what we know so far is the USA nuked civilians, dropped DU in urban Yugoslavia without any reason (except experimentation), has a long history of killing people for experimental reasons, and currently operates secret bases in other nations to avoid its own domestic laws constraining its behavior.
I am pretty open to new accusations against the USA given its history, and I’m not very receptive to Western narratives discrediting accusers.
They’re threatening us.
Good info. Not sure why I would trust the guardian that has dormyert spread conspiracy theories and complete fabrications to profit from them

Wait what the actual fuck?!
Wtf are you talking about? It’s literally a statement from the Whitehouse. How is Yog being intentionally inflammatory?!
