Same in DK, and my comment was meant to underline that. If you see a drone and no operator is around, then something is definitely wrong.

I mean, years ago, I had a DJI Phantom 2 Vision+ drift away, on account of my own inexperience and stupidity. This was right when it had just come out, and way before drone licenses and laws forbidding drone flights in populated areas. So no laws were broken; and it was done with no malicious intent… But these days?

Not even the DK police, who have some very well-trained drone operators, can fly their drones out of sight.

Seeing a drone with no operator once? Something might have gone wrong, let’s not jusødge too harshly, but seeing a drone with no operator regularly? On your property? If you have a hunting permit, a shotgun, and a clear shot, then it might be a good time to practice your anti air skills.

Well in that case

Merhaba, bugün doktorunuz olacağım. Lütfen eteğinizi kaldırın, iç çamaşırınızı çıkarın ve her zamanki pozisyonu alın.

Addendum: drone licenses and permits doesn’t allow you to fly over private property or main roads.

Since op didn’t mention seeing a pilot, I’d suspect that the drones are flown out of sight. So asking them to stop can be difficult. Of course asking nicely, by downing a drone, might get the message across.

I wonder if I could shoot down drones here in Denmark as well.

Woof, woof, woof! That’s my other dog imitation

That’s such a positive wave, maybe they can’t lose…

De har pænt mange henne i fakta, jeg kunne jo prøve at spørge.

Sorry for letting you hang, I’ve been swamped.

I believe he was going to LATAM and he couldn’t continue while transiting through russia.

That’s what I recall, too. That he was going to Latin America from Hong Kong through Sheremetyevo. But then on the Wikipedia page it said that Russian authorities have claimed that Snowden applied for asylum before departing Hong Kong. But again, probably propaganda.

Why is his collaborating with the russians not a fair circumstance to take in account? If he is being forced to work with them, then shouldn’t we disregard what he says as being suspect? Aren’t there better spokespersons for the FOSS/digital privacy movement that can be promoted instead?

Disregarding any statements that originates within Russia’s sphere of influence should be default. But on account of what Snowden did more than 10 years ago, he’s still given a voice in tech media.

He is almost certainly trying to leverage his fame and influence to promote russian security services goals; i.e. try to sow discord in the US.

I agree that Snowden’s fame is being leveraged, but I don’t think that it’s necessarily done on Snowden’s initiative. As you said it yourself, Snowden is a tool in the Russian propaganda toolkit.

for example in europe they were involved with green organizations in order to counteract the possibility of a rise in shale gas production in Europe.

Yeah, a Russian woman, who had received 45k EUR from the SVR run Pravfond, was just arrested in Denmark. She had run a legal counseling service for Russians in Denmark and ran for municipal elections for the socialist communists. I wonder how many people Russia has planted to run these low intensity operations around the world.

I would even speculate that he has internalized a lot of their goals (he is a russian citizen after all).

He definitely could have internalized the Russian state’s goals. But I don’t think that him being a Russian citizen should be an indication. That’s probably more of a middle finger from Putin in the direction of the US. Sorta like “Congratulations, that application for citizenship you didn’t fill out, has been approved. Go say your lines little puppet”

FMI er, som så meget andet i det danske forsvars infrastruktur, ikke mere kompetent end de politikere, der står for den øverste ledelse. Sådan lidt “garbage in, garbage out”.

Er hurtigt kig olfi.dk kan hurtigt få en til at ryste på hovedet. Første historie illustrerer min pointe fra forrige afsnit. https://olfi.dk/2024/06/07/flyvevaabnet-skal-spare-mere-end-ventet-og-maa-sloejfe-oevelser-og-uddannelse/

Med andre ord, så sætter man 190 mia over 4 år af til forsvaret https://www.altinget.dk/forsvar/artikel/overblik-her-er-den-nye-forsvarsaftale men man kan ikke lade de ansatte gennemføre uddannelse og træning her og nu. Sikkert fordi man ikke har fundet ud af, hvordan pengene skal fordeles. Det kan også tage lang tid, man kan ikke ride samme dag som man sadler i det danske forsvar.

Jeg håber bare at Putin anmelder sine troppers ankomst mindst 6 måneder før, samt at funktionsmailen Putin sender anmeldelsen til, bliver læst og funktionen ikke er vakant eller på afspadsering.

Da jeg hørte det tænkte jeg, at der måtte være mere ved det. Men fra https://foedevarestyrelsen.dk/nyheder/pressemeddelelser/2024/jun/ekstremt-staerke-nudler-kan-give-akut-forgiftningsfare-advarer-foedevarestyrelsen

Chili i store mængder udgør en risiko for især børn og svagelige voksne. Mulige symptomer er bl.a. svie og ubehag, kvalme, opkastning og forhøjet blodtryk. Derfor stiller vi nu krav om, at butikkerne fjerner produkterne fra deres hylder, siger enhedschef Henrik Dammand Nielsen, Fødevarestyrelsen.

Så fordi man kan få kvalme, opkast og forhøjet blodtryk, så bliver produktet forbudt?!? Med den argumentation, så kunne man også forbyde store poser salmiaklakrids. Ja, faktisk så er jeg en slags videnskabsmand selv, og jeg har, efter omfattende, og til tider særdeles nedværdigende, empiriske undersøgelser, lavet en liste over hvor meget jeg skal indtage af en given fødevare for at opnå kvalme, opkast og/eller diarré. Jeg foreslår at vi forbyder alle salgsenheder, der er større end de mængder mine studier indikerer er sikkert at indtage.

In 2013 we all still believed that Putin wasn’t the madman that he has turned out to be. I remember thinking that our biggest threats were right wing terrorists, Iranian nukes, and maybe North Korea. Sure we had seen what happened to Abkhazia and South Ossetia in 2008, but I don’t think anybody in the NATO countries saw that as the test it turned out to be. My point being that when Snowden flew to Russia in 2013, intent on seeking asylum, it may not have been his first choice, but it was as crazy an idea as it would be today…

With that said, I’d like to relate to some your post:

What I am saying is it is legitimate to criticize him and highlight his collaboration with the russians.

Sure, it’s legitimate to criticize anything. But without taking all the circumstances into account, the critique loses relevance. At least for me it does, and that’s what I’m arguing.

Well let me tell you as someone living in Ukraine (and was born in Donbas with my hometown being occupied in 2014 and relatives having to leave everything because of the russian occupation);

This is on a completely unrelated note. I’d like to apologize to you and every other Ukrainian, for the incompetence of my country’s politicians. We promised you +100 leopard 1 tanks, but due to the ineptitude of our politicians, their investments, and the resulting organization, we haven’t been able to deliver a single working tank. Whenever our politicians “donate” equipment it is blown out of proportions by our media. But when it comes to delivering useful kit, it fails over and over again. Rest assured that our present government is not going to be reelected. Their replacement will not be competent either though. Anyway, I wish we would do more than ship you our outdated equipment like it was some sort of humanitarian mission. It’s not a humanitarian mission, it’s fucking war and half assing war is stupid… Slava Ukraini! And death to Russian orks.

You full well know that there are real consequences from Snowden’s collaboration with the russians.

And we’re back in the discussion at hand :) the only consequences I can think of, that comes from Snowden collaboration is the propaganda tool he is now, and the intelligence he had to offer 11 years ago. Disregard him to mitigate the propaganda consequences.

I hope that whatever intel Snowden gave the Russians, it was limited. I think that a person with Snowden’s background would be able to encrypt the information he traveled with properly.

I’d like to know if I’ve missed something here. I really don’t mean to troll you. If you believe that I’m misinformed, please inform me.

Trying to survive is fair. But putting him on the pedestal and labelling him as “untouchable saviour who can do wrong” is not normal.

I don’t think that I’m putting Snowden on a pedestal. All I’m saying is that, like everyone else in Russia, who have a public profile, Snowden knows that he can either toe the party line, or plunge to his death from a basement window. What we really need to do, is to realize that anything coming from the mouths of anybody in Russia, is the result of a proverbial gun to their heads and should be treated thusly.

That’s with the mindset that I wouldn’t want to stay long at a job like that

Oh I concur, but elsewhere OP mentioned that the job pays a rather unskilled (OP mentioned having an A+) 20 year old 55k USD, and OP is getting certs as well. In that case I’d seriously be working on my STFU-skills, instead of meddling in something that my boss really wants me to stop meddling in. Maybe do a bit of CMA - but not to the extent of emailing my boss to get a paper trail.

When you’ve been in an organization for only three months, and it’s your first job in the industry, maybe just absorb what’s happening instead of trying to change stuff. Make up your own opinions, sure, but keep them to yourself. Maybe evaluate on how you perceived situations, and how they played out, and modify your views based on that.

Torque specs are really really important and not enough people know that to be the case

In other cases torque spec was pulled out of the tech writers rectum to avoid having people ask.

Jeg forsøger ikke at negligere det, men det korrekte verbum er, ifølge ritzau, vidst nok “skubbede” og ikke “slog” https://jyllands-posten.dk/politik/ECE17175864/oejenvidner-saa-mand-skubbe-til-mette-frederiksen/ og det lyder desuden til at angrebet ikke var planlagt.

Så jeg er enig i at 112, der handler om at planlægge et attentat med henblik på at dræbe, nok ikke kan finde anvendelse her.

Men 113? Klart, desuden 119 (vold mod tjenestemand) og 244 (simpel vold). Nu er jeg ikke jurist, blot lov-entusiast, så jeg ved ikke hvordan man kan kombinere det, men der burde da være til en frihedsstraf. Skubber man hårdt flere betjente under optøjer, får man tilsyneladende 6mnd i skyggen http://web.archive.org/web/20191128210640/sn.dk/Slagelse/Flere-straffet-efter-uro-Et-halvt-aars-faengsel-for-vold-mod-politiet/artikel/891443 nu var det ikke flere betjente, men en minister, så hvor mange betjente går der på en statsminister?

He could have chosen to not collaborate with the russians

Yes, he could indeed. He could be the metaphorical guy with the bags standing in front of a line tanks. But why should he?

This might not a big deal for you, but on a purely theoretical level, you don’t see how this hypocrisy could be important for others?

If you insist on applying a purely theoretical analysis, on the actions of a very real person with very real concerns for his safety, then I think I’ve found the problem with this discussion. You can’t lift this problem to this level of abstract theoretical morality.

But to answer your question more clearly: no, I don’t see how this perceived hypocrisy could be important for others.

Do you sincerely believe, that Snowden should have stayed put and faced a firing squad for whistle blowing? Snowden is trying to survive, and if daddy Putin says “go on TV and say these lines”, then the sentence doesn’t have to end with “or else”. Snowden did what he had to do for his country, by telling the public about the surveillance, now he’s paying for it. Why should Snowden be fighting for the Russian people as well?

OMG the naming schemes for powershell is enough for me to stay away. A +20char name for a command that shares the first 10 chars with 15 other commands, so you can’t just tab through it? No thanks!

Will look into nushell though, thanks for the advice.

Making data beautiful is what this community is about. But compromising readability for a color scheme is just annoying. Present data first, worry about it being extra pretty second.

We’re already looking at time being encoded differently than the usual horizontal axis, don’t make it harder.

On the other hand, if the purpose of the graph isn’t to present individual data points, but to present the monthly trends, then maybe it would have been OK, if the last 3 decades could have started over with a higher luminance set of colors. IDK but I think I would have used colors with more contrast and dropped the warm earthy theme.

What the heck, an exclamation mark links to communities. TIL

I’m an actual human, I swear!

Large companies telling broadcom to go suck a lemon, is definitely what can make a difference for the rest of us in the future… Definitely maybe, possibly make potential a difference.

I may only use VMware workstation pro for desktop virtualization for lab use, and I do realize the ramifications for enterprise operations are exponentially greater. But even I am getting a worse service. I used to be able to google an issue, find a link to the VMware forum and just open that. Now *.vmware.com redirects to broadcom.com and searching for the post there seldom finds it again. Absolutely brilliant timing for google to kill cached pages.

The broadcom takeover has fucked us all.
