I mean yeah that’s true but it’s not like Trump is gonna be pro-palestine.
If anything he is gonna be even more pro-israel because it’s a white supremacist colony.

TVgog56789@lemy.lolOPto People Twitter@sh.itjust.works•Elon Musk condemns the use of electronic voting machines (EVMs) used in general elections in some countries.11·11 个月前I am not in favour of EVMs here.
However there are pros and cons for both systems
I am just saying if you go for an electronic voting system using an airtight blockchain like Bitcoin and ethereum to verify votes using a biometric database is the only system trustworthy enough because.
If you use multiple blockchains like these it would require 10 trillion dollars or more to get the computing and staking power to hack the system.
It’s inconceivably costlier than hacking a physical election.
Russia also has paper ballots and I can assure you we can easily kick out Putin with a blockchain based voting system.

A good locksmith is all it takes to manipulate the votes.
Even if you keep it under tight security and surveillance they can bribe the security.

Trustless systems are always better than centralised systems especially when the government in power is also in authority to decide whether they continue to stay in power.
US has been blessed till now.
But look at Russian or North Korean elections. They also use paper ballots
I am confident that Putin is not gonna last if they go for a blockchain based voting system.

Self-service should not have a tipping option. Because anyway the corporates have already stolen the jobs of servers there and then they want to be tipped for that.
TVgog56789@lemy.lolOPMto World News Non-US@lemy.lol•India's Rajasthan finds some MDH and Everest spices unsafe for consumptionEnglish4·1 年前The issue here is that although India’s National food regulatory body called FSSAI have maintained that the pesticide is within safe level of 0.1 mg per grams
But Rajasthan state government tested them at their own labs and found 7mg per grams of ethylene oxide. 70 times more than what’s safe for consumption.
Ethylene oxide is a gaseous pesticide which is also used as a fumigant to preserve the spices. After the fumigation the spices have to be aerated for long enough so all of the ethylene oxide evaporates away.
Now clearly someone at the processing facility is either cutting corners or being pushed by operation management to meet targets and not aerating the spices for a sufficient duration.
And both. Indian and American federal regulators like FSSAI, FDA and USDA are just shrugging it off.
However some state regulators have taken the matter seriously. Ethylene oxide is a grade 1 carcinogen.
Kind of how FAA shrugged it off when a few 737 MAX dropped from the sky like it was nothing.

TVgog56789@lemy.lolOPto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Is the increasing wealth gap in India, that's worse than during British rule a sign of a second colonisation attempt by Gujarati billionaires?31·1 年前Obviously this is not about Gujarati people. They are just the same people as anywhere else in India.
I have specifically mentioned Gujarati billionaires. You know which guys I am talking about.
There are many recent incidents to think of which points in a similar direction.
In Varanasi the livelihood of small boaters is being taken away by large steamers owned by Gujarati billionaires.
In Ayodhya 4500 houses and shops of poor people were bulldozed to build five star hotels owned by Gujarati property tycoons.
In Ahmedabad the biggest semiconductor plant is being built predominantly funded by tax money and low interest loans from Public sector banks but owned by Adani. I mean they literally own the country at this point and if you are paying taxes you are working for them.
