#Sunak is apparently making security a key theme of his election campaign…
But seriously, do you feel protected by a man who can call a press conference whenever he wants…and he chooses to do it in the middle of a torrential downpour? A man who doesn’t possess common sense or an umbrella will under pressure make what kind of security decisions?
@MAKS23 Russia really doesn't seem to be very good at protecting its assets.
Is it arrogance? Or simple incompetence?
This has been repeated a bunch of times. If it isn't important resources just left visible, its holding gatherings of troops in large groups in open air. They keep doing it.
You wont believe the number of stormtroopers theyre deploying against unarmed students unless you see it. This is just one side: at least 7 police departments with at least two layers at every point of egress, with several layers in back for rear control and rotation. They've got the army out against your kids for having the audacity to do whatever they can to stop a genocide
Looking for a way to rip BluRay discs so I can stream the videos via Plex, on Manjaro Linux. Every site on the net points to MakeMKV, except the BETA key for that expired at the end of April, and the site hasn't been updated with a new one... So, anyone got any ideas?
As an aside, what kind of interview is it where the "journalist" doesn't present these facts to the Minister? Where's the challenge to what the govt are saying?
Just seems like BBC is happy to act as a simple propaganda outlet.
@Beachbum@LALegault I have considerably more experience than most regarding free speech and trespass due to my own legal history.
We have the Human Rights Act, which is the law that protects our rights based on the European Convention on Human Rights.
Here, you cannot be trespassed from a public university simply for protesting. The courts have ruled on this a few times. Only if you engage in what we'd call "aggravated trespass" - where you disrupt legal activity with your actions.
@Beachbum@LALegault regarding your constitution, yes, I have read it and have seen how often the Supreme Court upholds the right to free speech. It is considerably more protected there than here.
The weird issue I see is how your universities get funding from the federal government, have public spaces yet can act like entirely private entities...
@amicklei the problem will be poorly made cells. A normal cell made by a good brand will likely not be any issue for anyone unless it gets pierced.
But cells used in cheap items, such as random power banks from no-brand Chinese firms, that use badly made cells are a risk. It's why we keep seeing things like escooter fires, as the manufacturers of cheap ones use bad quality cells.
Honestly, we should be tightening up import controls on them as well.
@penguin42 exactly, it just moves the problem around. How long until we see a Tesco go up in flames because of a faulty cell in one of their recycling tubs?
@ScottLucas isn't it funny, Putin is busy stealing the assets of all sorts of western companies but whines like a baby when the west talks about handing over the sanction frozen Russian assets to Ukraine...
