I‘ve gotten a library card last year and that a fantastic decision.

Exactly. Had this happen with two women.

I‘m 44 now and know three guys who have resented this decision.

I reject your reality and substitute my own.

Developers need to eat, pay rent, etc.

That’s textbook trolling.

You have to do it yourself.

2019. Venezuela already had a decade of severe decline before that. Things got bad way before sanctions.

Economic conditions continued to deteriorate in 2016 when consumer prices rose 800% and the gross domestic product contracted by 18.6%,^[39] causing hunger to escalate to the point that the “Venezuela’s Living Conditions Survey” (ENCOVI) found nearly 75 percent of the population had lost an average of at least 19 pounds in 2016 due to a lack of proper nutrition.^[40] Luis Almagro, secretary general of the Organization of American States(OAS) stated, “I have never seen a country going down so fast, at every level: politically, economically, socially”.

On 1 May 2017 following a month of protests that resulted in at least 29 dead, Maduro called for a Constituent Assembly that would draft a new constitution that would replace the 1999 Venezuela Constitution.^[42] He invoked Article 347, and stated that his call for a new constitution was necessary to counter the actions of the opposition. The members of the Constituent Assembly were not to be elected in open elections, but selected from social organizations loyal to Maduro.^[42] It would also allow him to stay in power during the interregnum and skip the 2018 presidential elections, as the process would take at least two years

Or it goes to a mailing list, but none of the readers thinks it’s their responsibility.

The biggest far right group in Germany are the Turkish grey wolves.

What sanctions do you mean, specifically? The US had barely any sanctions against Venezuela. Most sanctions were against members of the regime, not the country. The US remained the biggest customer for Venezuelan oil long after Chavez gained power.

Early sanctions came in response to repression during the 2014 and the 2017 Venezuelan protests, and activities both during the 2017 Constituent Assembly election and the 2018 presidential election. Sanctions were placed on current and former government officials, including members of the Supreme Tribunal of Justice(TSJ) and the 2017 Constituent National Assembly (ANC), members of the military and security forces, and private individuals accused of being involved in human rights abuses, degradation in the rule of law, repression of democracy, and corruption. Canada and the E.U. began applying sanctions in 2017.

Chavez took power in 1999. More than a decade before these sanctions started.

The utter mismanagement by the Chavistas in power are the main reason Venezuela has been doing badly for years leading to a fucked economy, rising crime, lacking healthcare and food.

The high oil profits coinciding with the start of Chavez’s presidency^[15]resulted in temporary improvements in areas such as poverty, literacy, income equality and quality of life between primarily 2003 and 2007,^[16][15][17] though extensive changes in structural inequalities did not occur.^[18] On 2 June 2010, Chávez declared an “economic war” on Venezuela’s upper classes due to shortages, arguably beginning the crisis in Venezuela.^[19] By Chávez’s death in 2013, economic actions performed by his government during the preceding decade, such as deficit spending^[20][21][22] and price controls,^[23][24] proved to be unsustainable, with Venezuela’s economy faltering. At the same time, poverty,^[15][25] inflation^[26] and shortages increased.

If the reminder goes to someone, who was fire two months ago or someone on holiday, this can easily fail.

The problem sometimes is the automation failing for some reason.

iCloud, Spotify family, Bitwarden password manager

North Korea did it.

That would close a major gap on the Linux desktop for me.

It’s just not as nice.

An actually good alternative to Adobe software is the excellent Affinity suite.

Bombing civilians? I haven’t heard that claim before. Do you have a source for that?

I don’t get why you simp for a brutal dictator, that has ruined a prosperous country and brought hardship upon the people. Just because the guy waves a red flag of socialism, doesn’t mean he needs the allegiance of western leftists.

Of course nothing is fixed for now. However, there is now a higher chance of change for the better.
