  • Oh you want wake up call

    Just a few years ago we were talking about preventing global warming to go beyond 1.5°C but now in 2024 we already crossed 1.5 and also briefly touched 1.9

    There are more wars happening now than a decade ago. The fact that we came this close to Russia-Ukraine war and Israel Iran Gaza war getting combined when Russia sent its fighter jets to Syria while Israeli troops were on ground in Syria.

    There is a ever increasing talk about de-globalization. Even though that was one of major things that kept us at relative peace for almost last 100 years.

    Wealth inequality is now worse than it was during French revolution.

  • It’s true Indian government has banned Element and other Apps and forced Signal, WhatsApp and other such apps to have a local representative so that they can arrest someone and force their will. But there is one silver lining, it is that these politicians don’t fully understand how open source software works. So just banning Element app doesn’t do much I can switch to schildiChat or just download element source code and change the name and logo and boom I’m back in.

    And also most of their app bans are just requests sent to Google play store and Apple App store, You can always download from FDroid or from other sources

    and there is no real way they can enforce these stupid laws.

    They started going through chats on traffic stops, but there are ways to avoid that also
