In past administrations, I would have defaulted to the position that there may be valid reasons to deny entry to a group of scholars from China, given China's history with spies in the USA. Now, however, I can't trust this administration at all, so I'm likely to side with the scholars until evidence is given for me to do the contrary.

Yeah, but he's an idiot. He thinks tariffs are a great idea.

Back in my day, they were doing this on slide rules! 😃

But do you wear an onion on your belt? 😃

It's always gratifying to see another "old person" in the comments. 😃

Well, the good news for me personally is that since a year, I've been getting off of the American tech stack, hosting in Europe, with .eu domains, using aliases for emails on my own email server, locking down my stuff, and erasing what there is from iCloud, Google, etc... Completely. I wrote a long basic how-to a month ago to help others, and have been meaning to update it more. I've also been migrating my startup company's setup to do the same. It's all done now and I couldn't be happier with the results. I've also been encouraging others online and friends and family to do the same. I even have a few of them using my Nextcloud server nearly full time now.

So I am trying to help. 😃

Some of it is, I'm sure. But the reason I posted it was because it had a lot of detailed information which I hadn't seen before. It was literally my first post on Lemmy today, other than comments. I hope I didn't make a faux pas.

All of my domains are .eu and are hosted in Europe and are under European GDPR rights.

One reason to use Matrix on your own server.

There are many good people who die every day - people who cared for others, didn't discriminate, didn't belittle race, sex, gender, or wanting a better world.

Chuck Norris was not such a person, and deserves no sympathy from me.
