As a non basque Spaniard, I consider Euskara a living treasure we have a huge collective responsibility in keeping alive, and I hope any political turmoils are never (again) an obstacle against this task.
First time I pointed John the Ripper to a password file it immediately started beeping like crazy. Turns out default password was no password, and 70% of the accounts were unused. Those happy quaint 90s...
Oh wow I just checked my servers and on one the folder is 3.2GB and another has 1.7GB.
It kind of looks like it just keeps copies of every version its ever installed? Theres several copies of node and `node_modules` folders.
I'm not super low on space but it also pretty clearly doesn't need to be that large, it looks like most of it is copies of itself.
By my count 30 years out of 48 are not nearly 100%. If you consider Suarez, Calvo-Sotelo, Aznar and Rajoy leftists you might be a bit too much out there.
Spain was isolated due to it's political Allignment in the 40's, things changed a lot from 1954 on wards when they realized they had a friend in there now that the enemy was the USSR.
Spain was voluntarely isolated after Civil War because Franco and the Falange (read fascists) were obsessed with being self sufficient (autarchy). The thing was so extreme that there was smuggling of metals by foot (iron, tin, cooper...) from Portugal and France. But the autarchy was from Franco, and not a pressure against him. You can read about this here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economy_of_Spain_(1939%E2%80%9...
The "magical" event that happened mid/late 1950's was that autarchy was still not working and the other main faction of the government (called technocrats, mainly the Opus Dei) said "the national catholicism is cool and all, but we need to get profits and this autarchy shit isn't working". So the autarchy ended to the Falange dismay, and the country slowly opened economically and started catching up with Europe.
Sadly Falange is on the rise again (falangist Buxadé from Vox cleaned the party from capitalists in the last couple of years), and you can hear young people calling for closing and going "Spain first" again.
>Shortly before the end of World War II and the later beginning of the Marshall Plan, President Roosevelt ordered the American ambassador in Madrid to inform Franco that any "political or economic aid" from the United States would be "impossible" as long as the dictator remained in power.
>The decision was ratified in August 1945 by a joint declaration of Stalin, Truman and Attlee. In February of the following year, France closed its border with Spain, leaving the country completely isolated. The UN asked all its members in December 1946 to retire their ambassadors from Spanish territory, and did not revoke its condemnatory declaration until 1950. Spain joined the UN in 1955

>The government protested against the isolation, stating that Spain had "the right to buy on international markets", and criticized the international community for sabotaging the country's "right to live according to its spiritual values"
>The Spanish international reputation would begin to improve gradually in the late 1940s and early 1950s, after the consolidation of the Cold War, due to the explicit interest of the United States in promoting anti-communist governments in Western Europe. The diplomatic displays of approval by the American government helped to strengthen the regime and stabilize its economy, which would eventually lead to the liberalization policies that marked the 1960s
Which is exactly what I said in my previous reply. Isolation FORCED by the international community (Franco fought against the USSR and Cold War wasn't established yet), they embraced it sure because they had no other choice. They could trade with Argentina (Franco-Peron protocol, signed in 1946)
I now read that German police will stop and check families with kids in airports the days immediately before and after public holidays.
Chilling "Ihre papiere bitte" vibes there.
Not doing a great job at avoiding stereotypes, you guys maybe could historically benefit from saner laws and a healthier relationship with them.
Obviously? Morocco is a well-known hub for migrants from all over Africa who try to reach Europe, but these ones are "quite obviously" Moroccan? What makes it this obvious then?
Is obvious because there is no way 48000 people on flip-flops and football t-shirts, without neither documents, nor money, would be allowed to happily step back into Morocco unless they are citizens.
Also because real sub saharan immigrants would fight tooth and nails before to voluntarily returning to Morocco. A place where many report been abused for months and years, and where they are trapped unless they pay the local mafias a small fortune to quit the place.
Flash mob is a perfect way to describe this, but if Morocco government was behind that, it backfired spectacularly with zero real gains to show for the at least 67 Moroccan citizens that died at the sea just to have a laugh at Spain.
Spain is seen as the victim and after past negative experiences has endured this with relative grace and dignity. Haters will hate, trumpers will trump, and nobody cares. Europe can say what they want, but the crisis has mostly solved itself in 24 hours, and the video of the Spanish agents running to comfort a lost little child crying alone, has made the entire country proud of their policemen.
Morocco instead is seen as the invader, has lost international trust and now it needs to bury many of their citizens including children. The families of the children drown probably think now that this has been a really stupid idea.
