You don’t control Android either. You only have delusion of control over Android. And Google is willing to spend every dime to keep you disillusioned about what “free” Android really is.
It’s a mass data harvester for ads companies, and the world’s most widespread and lucratious billboard, owned by Google, for the end user concerned.
Android is “libre” everywhere yet Google violates every fucking privacy concern for 99% of Android users. Google is an ad company, not a tech company, sharing what you scream during sex with every ads company imaginable, selling your identifiable data with anyone with a thousand bucks.
Apple, on the other hand, is a hardware selling company.
Neither. Both. Turkish ultranationalists called for releasing Ocalan in return of his denouncement and will of disbandment of PKK.
In the meantime Turkish-backed rebels in Syria (not rebels anymore though) started a new proxy fight with Syrian Kurdish YPG (Urban PKK backed by USA) and YPG is losing ground daily now.
(Ocalan is the primary leader of Kurdish Separatist movement, who’s been in jail for the last 20 years)
Thanks pal, we’re doing our best but the game’s rigged.
Why the hell is this in 4K HDR?
Damn, that’s way more promising than Bannerlord’s first big patch, which arrived with almost the same filesize with the release.
TBH FLAC can’t do 32bit floating point encoding, neither more than 8 channels per stream, so he’s not technically incorrect that it’s not zipping a wave file.
The first one concerns recorded source material (there are 32bit fp recorders for the last few years really helped loudest and quietest recordings) and not a single end product.
The second one limits FLAC to 7.1, so as a container it’s not suitable for theatrical purposes, neither for Dolby Atmos/DTS, nor for higher order ambisonics (used in vr).
But neither of these limits concerns end users, and if we’re talking about music, they can get fucked with whatever exorbitancy they prefer.
There’s not a single terrorist organization that’s not being funded by USA at some point.
HTS being in USA’s terrorist organizations list is pretty irrelevant from getting support from CIA or Pentagon, and no one could able to move an inch in Syria without US’s consent, let alone going uncontested for hundreds of kilometers.
I won’t argue with streaming services go fuck themselves but music industry’s not being in a good place also deeply related with there are shit megaton quadrillion musicians spawning everyday now. And most of them are pretty good!
Making music got easier by decade and it’s around 500$ to have all kinds of tech and instruments better than what Radiohead used in Kid A, and learning resources are way more accessible now.
Total music related spending (vinyls, merch, tickets) skyrocketed compared to 80s or 90s as well, but it’s also split between 100 million artists, and not 100.000. Yet the listener headcount only doubled or tripled.
Turkiye is also changing its position with Kurds, since the Turkish Ultranationalists openly asked for Ocalan’s release from prison, who is the founder, primary ideologue and the ex-leader of the Kurdish PKK.
HTS is currently pledged to Syrian Salvation Government, which is basically the opposition government in exile (operating from Istanbul), governing NW Syria (4 mil pop) from the back seat for the last 10 years. HTS is just acting as its main (but not only) militia organization, and Jolani said HTS will oversee the Syrian state’s transition to SSG.
We’ll hear the names of Mohammed al-Bashir and Mustafa al-Mousa in the coming days.
HTS mostly consists of militants splintered off from Al Qaeda and ISIS, and waged war against them. Apparently they gave up “Salafist” terrorism to turn into a Syrian Nationalist movement instead. Jolani sounded more moderate than I was expecting, so let’s hope the new western backed puppet state brings some peace to Syrians after all.
Well, to be honest it’s a terrible, terrible mouse on it’s own.
