The issue is that you don’t want to give some random untrusted process root access.
It’s been awhile since I’ve used anything but Magisk but usually you have to set root permissions per app, or you can get Magisk notification to request access.
Printing like to dead trees?
You could just use the system print dialog instead of Firefox’s if that works better for you, I think it’s possible to set it as default.
The push to live services, online DRM, microtransactions, DLC and other such things is because they have identified that there is more money to be made as a ‘server operator’ than a ‘game developer.’
They don’t really care about getting paid for the game, they’d rather give it away for free if they can make more money off controlling the servers.
They have sold two ‘tiers’ of kindles for awhile, the one with ads on the lock screen is discounted.
It’s not my favorite thing but iirc the lock screen is supposed to be the only place with ads.
It’s a quote from the OP article.
By the UN definition, Hamas is a genocidal organisation. Its founding charter, published in 1988, explicitly commits it to obliterating Israel. Article 7 states that “The Day of Judgment will not come about until Moslems fight Jews and kill them”. Article 13 rejects any compromise, or peace, until Israel is destroyed. Hamas fighters who burst into Israel on October 7th and killed almost 1,200 Israelis (and other nationalities) were carrying out the letter of their genocidal law.
This doesn’t seem like it would take a lot of research but it might be the first time I’ve heard about this charter.
a rarity in a region where many countries give long jail terms and even death sentences for people convicted of marijuana possession, consumption or trafficking.
Anything that can get you the death penalty is dangerous by proxy.

Generally people are worse with computers than you think.
A computer preinstalled with Linux is definitely more likely to confuse than you imagine

It’s because of the Geneva Convention (origin of the modern concept of war crimes.)
It’s designed to be applied mutually, if only one side does then it’s basically non-functioning.

It wasn’t?

The trauma experienced by hundreds of thousands of children and their parents in Gaza will also have long-term debilitating effects, psychiatrists and psychologists have warned, particularly as there are no therapeutic facilities left. Few of Gaza’s hospitals are functioning any more, even for operating on the severely injured.
With an estimated 8,000 children killed in Gaza, and many tens of thousands more injured and orphaned, the UN children’s fund has said the Gaza Strip is “the most dangerous place in the world to be a child”.

It’s from the earlier days of computing/portable devices where almost nothing had the sort of inter-connectivity we take for granted.
You’d download apps or music onto your PC and then ‘sideload’ them onto your PDA or MP3 players.
Sometimes this required both proprietary cables and software. (This is why some of us still get excited by simple USB ports)

Egypt proposed elections while offering assurances to Hamas that its members would not be chased or prosecuted, but the Islamist group rejected any concessions other than hostage releases, the sources said. More than 100 hostages are still believed to be held in Gaza.
They could still have won the elections.
Blinken noted in the briefing that “understandably, everyone would like to see this conflict end as quickly as possible,” but, he observed, “if it ends with Hamas remaining in place and having the capacity and the stated intent to repeat October 7th again and again and again, that’s not in the interests of Israel, it’s not in the interests of the region, it’s not in the interests of the world.”
Obviously not but it’s an important part of the discussion, especially with their stated interest in repeating it.
a word for such things is ‘dark patterns’
it’s not designed to be liked but to keep the player returning habitually and upping so called “retention.”
I suppose it’s possible to build a system that would let you specifically allow a VPN IP to be green-listed on your account, but you’d probably have to allow it by signing in from a known good IP first.
I think it seems like lot of work for something that isn’t really private and is still probably vulnerable to exploit.
