Whatever you want to call it, it’s distinct from what voyager is used for.

I’m pretty ignorant of encryption algorithms. This article doesn’t seem to mention side-channel or GPU cracking attack resistance, which Argon2 addresses. KeepassXC’s default right now in ChaCha20-Argon2id.

>Argon2id is a hybrid version. It follows the Argon2i approach for the first half pass over memory and the Argon2d approach for subsequent passes. RFC 9106 recommends using Argon2id if you do not know the difference between the types or you consider side-channel attacks to be a viable threat.

*Whataboutism* is itself a thought-terminating cliché.

Citations Needed podcast: Whataboutism - The Media's Favorite Rhetorical Shield Against Criticism of US Policy

>Since the beginning of what’s generally called ‘RussiaGate’ three years ago, pundits, media outlets, even comedians have all become insta-experts on supposed Russian propaganda techniques. The most cunning of these tricks, we are told, is that of “whataboutism” – a devious Soviet tactic of deflecting criticism by pointing out the accusers’ hypocrisy and inconsistencies. The tu quoque - or, “you, also” - fallacy, but with a unique Slavic flavor of nihilism, used by Trump and leftists alike in an effort to change the subject and focus on the faults of the United States rather than the crimes of Official State Enemies.

>

>But what if "whataboutism" isn’t describing a propaganda technique, but in fact is one itself: a zombie phrase that’s seeped into everyday liberal discourse that – while perhaps useful in the abstract - has manifestly turned any appeal to moral consistency into a cunning Russian psyop. From its origins in the Cold War as a means of deflecting and apologizing for Jim Crow to its braindead contemporary usage as a way of not engaging any criticism of the United States as the supposed arbiter of human rights, the term "whataboutism" has become a term that - 100 percent of the time - is simply used to defend and legitimizing American empire’s moral narratives.

This isn’t about religion. It’s about settler-colonialism. Plenty of Jews are anti-zionist.

Yes, Zelensky was democratically elected on a platform of peace & reconciliation. Unfortunately he wasn’t able to deliver on those promises, because as soon as he got into office, the fascists made it clear that they’d kill him if he did deliver, and the pressure they put on him to get what they want continues.

Zelensky was in no way qualified for the job. He was a comedian who played the president on TV). It was a wildly popular show. It’s like if Martin Sheen ran for president after The West Wing. He was basically groomed & funded by a Ukrainian oligarch to play a TV president and then run for president. Ukraine has long been considered the most corrupt nation in Europe.

His presidential term ended over a year ago, and the longer the election is postponed, the less legitimate he will appear.

Please post somewhere else next time so we don’t get reports. Maybe c/history or c/ukraine.

>I wouldn’t be surprised if some back channels between Iran and the USA agreed to these limited exchanges to save face and not go to war.

I’ve heard from multiple sources that this is the case, and I haven’t heard any counterarguments.

>And I wouldn’t be surprised if Israel knew this and is exposing this as a way to push the USA to war.

Doubtful. Assuming the satellite images are real (very likely), they would have gotten out anyway. These are commercial-grade resolution, akin to Google Maps.
