Not even close.

Yes, I know what it’s supposed to be. But I haven’t seen it being spelled as “psych” by regular people since the 90s, and only once in a webcomic in the mid 2000s. It’s been “sike” ever since.

Nn… Nuh!

Where?

Not since the 90s.

MitID is hard-required to sign into anything government or personal information required. Previously people would be handed a key-card (a white, fold-out card with a bunch of numbers on it. The numbers were one-time use, so the card would eventually run out, requiring a replacement after a few months).

These key-cards have been completely phased out. Now there is the MitID app or a key-device that is almost impossible to get (you’ll basically have to prove that you don’t have/can’t use a smart phone).

The MitID app has almost no features at all. It’s specifically used for authentication. You log into the gooberment website or bank website, then a encrypted, constantly changing QR code pops up. You open the MitID app on your phone, scan the QR code, and then you gain access.

This is all run through the private security company the Danish government has hired, called “NETS”.

Really…? Because that’s looking pretty cute…

Somw people are too old fashioned, I guess. Still think it’s the 1800s.

Can you tell me about Graphene?

I got bank and government ID apps (manditory. Denmark uses MitID for all government related things), but they require things like locked bootloaders and Google security features.

Would those apps be functional on GrapheneOS?

Woaw! Damn! The robotaxis are a dangerous fuck up!? That’s most surprising thing that happened all year! There’s literally no way I could’ve seen that coming.

Oh gods, watch out! The Double King approaches!

What space race?

NASA us working on a shoestring budget and managed to run some very successful missions. The Artemis Program is/was very succesful, and what does NASA get?

Budget cuts. Money diverted to SpaceX who, under Elon, has yet to do a single succesful mission (the Dragon capsule and reusable rockets were both projects that Elon bought. Starship is the first project that Elon directed).

Good gods! Captain, The ambient sarcasm readings are off the charts!

I mean, if whole EU countries can do it, so can you.

Vulcan army? Lord StarTron!? Dude is getting trolled.

The majority of Internet infrastructure runs on either something Linux based or something FreeBSD based.

A lot of the tools used are also various flavours of open or semi open source.

I’d say open source already has success. Just not in places where you see consumers using it. Except… Wait a minute, Android is a fork of Linux, and Android is open source too.

I would argue that switching to an open-source model for all your tools is more globalist. Open source projects are being maintained by people all over the world, and any group or branch is allowed to modify and redistribute their personal version of any project.

It’s the opposite of being subject to an ever growing corporation you can’t even put checks on. Every government using the product of a single small group of massively rich corporations is giving said corporation unprecedented power over the world.

Local libraries here and there in Copenhagen have already switched to Manjaro. Haven’t heard anyone complain about it.

… Oh… Oh my gods… She looks cute…

The Amazing Digital Circus is disgusting content…?

Is this video pearl clutching? It’s pearl clutching, isn’t it?

“Algorithms used in welfare…”

Not a bad idea. Could be used to cut through red tape and being aid to those who need it as efficiently as possible…

“… Penalise the poor.”

… Unless, of course, the algorithm is made to only favour the ones that don’t really need it. Uuuggh for fuck sake.
