Did you read what I wrote? Pakistan has covertly supported terrorism. Pakistan did not share intelligence with India during the Mumbai attack. Independent intelligence from other countries confirmed Pakistan’s role in the attacks.

India did not target any Pakistani military sites. It claims to have targeted LeT and Jaish e Mohammed bases. Pakistan still shields many internationally recognised terrorists.

You’re naive if you think Pakistan is ‘governed’. It is a military masquerading as a government. Again, read. Maybe look up the Mumbai attacks and Pakistan’s role in them. Look up how Hizbul Mujahideen foiled indigenous Kashmiri militant groups like the JKLF and ratted them out to the Indian army because they weren’t loyal enough to Pakistan. It’s an inter imperialist conflict. Class war doesn’t play out on the country level. I don’t support war, or warmongering.

No proof it was a false flag. This is nonsense, and worse, it is despicable, insensitive nonsense. Lashkar e Toiba is a Pakistani terrorist group. Ajmal Kasab (one of the terrorists in the 2008 Mumbai attacks) had a relative who fought in the Afghanistan as a Mujahideen, and he was trained in similar camps in Pakistan. Bin Laden was found near a Pakistani military academy. David Headley claimed the Pakistani intelligence agency was involved in the Mumbai attacks. The attack in Pahalgam was evidently done by Pakistan, as it doesn’t fit the pattern of indigenous Kashmiri militants. Even in the height of militancy, tourists were not targeted as it alienated the business class and local Kashmiris reliant on tourism. This was an implicit agreement. What’s more, Kashmiris came out in huge numbers condemning terrorism for the first time on the streets. You show your ignorance again.

India claims to have hit terrorist bases. Pakistani media has already started spreading fake news. It’s best to wait it out as propaganda and emotionally charged lies meant to provoke both sides will start pouring in. So stop spreading lies.

I had a windows home installation too, local rules may vary, but mine (India), I could turn it off from the command prompt.

manage-bde -off C: (or any other drive) was what I used.

Edit: nevermind, you meant that you wanted to change the key. That’s not possible, unfortunately, you might have to use some other encryption software.

Bit late to this thread but I know a few commands that might help if you’re stuck:

manage-bde -off C: (or any other drive) This decrypts the volume and turns off bitlocker

manage-bde -lock/unlock

manage-bde -protectors -get C: (or any other drive) This displays your 48-digit key. I suggest you store it somewhere, just to be safe.

Get-BitlockerVolume reveals which of your partitions are encrypted with Bitlocker.

Disclaimer: I am not a terminal nerd, I just had similar problems years ago and went down the rabbit hole, used these commands and turned off bitlocker permanently. I don’t use windows anymore, but when I did, it didn’t cause any problems with bitlocker after this. If you’re concerned about your un-encrypted hard drives, consider using Veracrypt (carefully!) or similar open source encryption software.

I was being flippant. I’m pretty sure the CDU will just move rightward.

Ok, now ban it. Liberals, this is your moment. Show us that you are capable of cracking down on fascists, even after you failed spectacularly with Israel.

It’s not much but it’s a step in the right direction.

Reminds me of this: Indian Port Workers Refuse to Load Weapons for Israel’s War

In an interview with the Middle East Eye, T Narendra Rao, general secretary of the Water Transport Workers Federation of India, said they will “boycott” handling of any vessel carrying arms or ammunition or weaponised cargo to Israel.

Workers know what’s up.

NC has public support? Haven’t they always been sarkari stooges?

Yeah, we know.

It’s nothing new. I would have linked to the archive photos of Abu Ghraib prison photos, but I’m not sure it’s allowed, since they’re NSFW. The fact that Bukele declared that no one can escape pretty much confirms that it’s an actual death camp. There are metal bunks just like the ones in Auschwitz. The prisoners are kept inside for 23.5 hours, with half an hour of exercise in the lobby. The cells claim to have 1 sq. m. for each prisoner, with 80-100 prisoners, and there is no sunlight, only 24/7 artificial light. The prisoners don’t speak(allegedly), and have no clocks or reading material. Some have lost their voice from not speaking. It’s impossible to keep so many people in one place; some detainees must have died eventually to make space for the newcomers. Food is scant, and violence is common.

Funnily enough, I’ve seen a couple of articles refer to them as ‘gulags’. They aren’t fucking gulags. Spreading their propaganda even when they see something this horrifying. It would be funny if it wasn’t nauseating.

Baldwin: Can you explain what you see as the misuse of the holocaust and WWII by the Russian government and nationalists?

… Havryshko: The memory of World War II is weaponized by different political actors for political and military purposes. For example, when Putin began his angry speech on the night of February 24, 2022, he emphasized that one of the goals of the so-called “special military operation” was the “denazification” of Ukraine.

Top Russian propagandists frequently refer to the Ukrainian government as a “Nazi regime” and call Ukrainian soldiers “Nazis.”

From the article. The author is a western academic, a historian of Holocaust studies. Read.

Yes. You can’t explain women’s pain to those who masturbate to it.

According to this article, even the value of epsilon is wrong. Epsilon stands for ‘price elasticity’, which seems to measure how much tariffs would affect the price of an item. 0.25 is the value used by the White House, but some economists have come out saying it is actually closer to 0.945, indicating that prices are affected far greater by tariffs than what these buffoons claim. But even with the correct value, the formula makes no sense.

Without the fancy shit, it’s basically (exports/imports) - 1.

So epsilon and phi are just constants that cancel each other out? Wow. This is legit the dumbest shit I’ve ever heard, narrowly beating Narendra Modi’s (a+b)^2 debacle (he said that the 2ab was ‘extra’). Fucking illiterate, aren’t they?

Yes, I hope so too. We’ve already lost so many rationalists to Hindu terrorists :(

Yeah because working outside and still doing all the domestic work is so much better than being confined to the house. Who needs feminism?

No doubt the Soviet Union was a huge step forward for women but this is just a dumb thing to say. Women doing unpaid household labour and emotional labour has always been the case.

While I broadly agree with the view that debate was sometimes a part of religious institutions in the past, this changed dramatically in the 20th century, especially with regards to Islam, perhaps due to the fall of the Ottoman Empire. When is the last time you’ve heard of a madrassah teaching that homosexuality is natural? Not to be Muslim-phobic, I am aware if the rich history of debate and science in the Middle East, but the material conditions have changed now, conservatism has been on the rise since the 70s.

You speak of mahaviharas, but Buddhists I have met are just as conservative as the average religious person when it comes to women’s rights, feminism and gay rights. Madrassahs were not ‘open’, even during the Islamic golden age. Even when Islam was less rigid, Mansoor al-Hallaj was executed for saying ‘Ann-al-Haq’, Omar Khayyam had to go on a pilgrimage to prove he was pious, al-Qadir ordered to kill every Mu’tazilite in Baghdad and no doubt there are countless other stories of persecution. That rational thought survived when people were religious is hardly to the credit of religion, and even in periods of prosperity when religious institutions weren’t on the defensive, such things happened anyway and under the sanction of religion. As long as religion is under an institution, it is the nature of institutions to cling to power and hence, suppress dissent.

Turns out the one I was thinking of was the critical stop sound and the error sound was less threatening. Learnt something new…

Damn! This is some real hackerman shit.
