Obvious examples: health care, education, social benefits provision, public transit, arms control. All involve expansions of the state bureaucracy and decision making power. This is tangential to whether those things are good/bad in an

Modern leftists are definitionally promoting expansion of government power - it is a core consequence of their beliefs. The late Murray Bookchin was the exception that proves the rule, and he was hardly popular or widely known, and made som

No, they merely complain when it is deployed against them, as with ICE. Otherwise Waco would be a rallying cry of the US left, and it isn’t.

When you have accepted there is a need to enforce immigration law, starting with removing those without existing legal status, we can proceed.

Many people have been pointing at Waco for years. Even Janet Reno later admitted regretting that episode, and yet you do not hear the left in the US saying at all that this was a problem - in fact it is stereotypical far right recruitment m

Then argue for democratically changing the law to make them unambiguously legal. Selectively enforcing only the laws you want to is the key enabler of corruption.

Estonia was the first major NATO victim of such things https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2007_cyberattacks_on_Estonia Made worse by the fact Estonia is a more networked society than, for example, the US.

Olimex are a better middle ground than sparkfun or adafruit for the things they cover. In truth people will spend a lot of money paying other people to shop on Aliexpress for them so they can maintain the illusion they are above all that.

> you can't imagine e.g. Nvidia putting out a press release like this when they drop a vendor nVidia used to have a much worse reputation than that. Companies did not work with nVidia because they liked doing so.

German trains, as recently as the 90s, were phenomenal, and integrated superbly with the Swiss and others. It is in the 21st century that Germany has gone off the rails.

Slightly tangentially, I expect GitHub to seriously lose lustre as developer de facto social network, with codeberg and self hosted forgejo taking off, leading to a fediverse of instances. That is likely to be a bigger trend than any shift
