You need to understand subnetting. Allowing 192.168.1.0/24 also allows 192.168.1.135/24 In fact 192.168.1.135/24 shouldn’t be valid syntax at all, but it is easier to accept it and then let subnet math fix the mistake.

I assume your router is 192.168.1.135 for whatever reason, so as long as your router is contained in the configured iptables allowed network, it’ll work with all of the following networks.

192.168.1.135/32
192.168.1.134/31
192.168.1.132/30
192.168.1.128/29
192.168.1.128/28
192.168.1.128/27
192.168.1.128/26
192.168.1.128/25
192.168.1.0/24
192.168.0.0/23
… And 22 even larger networks.

If you don’t configure a subnet mask for the rule, iptables will accept the IP address you put in as a single host, the /32 is implied. The same behavior would be seen using any kind of network filter, though they may not allow you to specify 192.168.1.135/24, they may require a bit boundary, but mathematically, it’s the same.

Why is there a need to comply with foolish laws? I’m sure I type stuff on lemmy.ml or elsewhere on the internet that doesn’t comply with some idiot law somewhere in like Myanmar or the DPRK. Why would I concern myself with those laws.

Not black text on white, but light grey/purple on dark grey was pretty popular with Sun Microsystems. I think OG Apple Macintosh used Black on White, or at least close enough colors.

That said I use something like this for work.

The best possible outcome is for Europe to return to being an agrarian economy. The world doesn’t need European manufacturing, and Europe might become peaceful or at least less of a threat to the rest of the world.

Agreed, reduce the population of all theocratic states, capitalist and extraction economies by 95%. It would be a net good for humanity as a whole.

Money. Europe has the ability to pay, so obviously Russia will sell to them.

Much like why anyone gives a shit about Iran or the middle east in general. The middle east has mineral wealth and extraction states are more then happy sell their only material assets to anyone willing to pay the current fascists in charge, even if it is to their own detriment.

Democrats will stick around. And they will do nothing

If they did nothing that would actually be an improvement. But what they do is make sure they use their seniority in the party to keep newly elected dems from replacing them on committee chairmanships and leadership roles. I.e. Whip and Minority leader.

Sorry. Mea Culpa. I was expressing my frustration with the spirit of the law, making discussion about the details of the law moot. My comment was directed at the contents you posted, not at you for posting them.

Sure. But if they didn’t invade the shareholders would have gotten less money.

It would be hilarious if shipping companies just completely ignored the theocracy’s decree. But since capitalists enable fascism, they will respect their wishes, and then get insurance and subisdy payouts, while at the same time paying protection money. So the whole world loses in all ways, just so the <10 shareholders benefit.

Cynical Identity politics has been a campaign strategy since at least LBJ.

Yea it’s a great way for a congress member to protest. It’s visible, you can control the narrative, and it’s way more active the boycotting or going to the alternative state of the union put on by notable Pro-Clinton PAC MoveOn.org

Yep. It was 100% planned beforehand, and house leadership knew it would happen. The same thing would happen in the same way if he were carrying a sign that said “white lives matter.”

Just FYI this was 100% planned on both his part as well house leadership. He was kicked out last year under similar circumstances. He wasn’t kicked out for what the sign said.

There is A LOT context missing here. The “speedboat” apparently had at least 10 people in it (4 killed 6 wounded, possibly some unwounded?) The people in the speedboat apparently had some fairly serious armaments. I doubt it was just some pistols as those aren’t very effective at the ranges that boats are engaging on the open water. Additionally there do exist rich Americans that will make trips to Cuba by boat and they are normally allowed even if they are intercepted by Cuban inter-coastal forces. So the fact that this time they fired at the Cuban forces, tells me there was certainly something else happening.

I fully believe that a bunch of dumbass Floridian boaters would just pop off and fire on another boat after crossing territorial boundaries, 100%.

These dumb bastards are lucky that other countries aren’t going full Hegseth.

This kind of take is brain dead though.

we should instead ban advertising

This is the solution. If companies cannot profit off of their platforms, they will not have them any longer. Literally just ban all advertising. Amend all free-speech laws in all countries to define speech as rights of individual citizens, with corporations explicitly excluded.

I would support a third party normally,

“normally” like what year? What year in your entire voting life have you actually voted third-party on a national level?

I guess if you don’t see any difference between a government supported telecom company and a company that exists in different nation that has a necessarily hostile relationship to the local government, then sure they are comparable.
