Your word against theirs, and they can easily say they saw something suspicious. That’s how it works with every stop and search.

Nice, that looks legit.

At least in most US cities, it’s also illegal to sleep in your car. You’re pry fine in the netherlands.

The object man appears behind you while you’re coding and inserts a null reference that takes you a day to find.

Nice

There’s also Plume.

I read through the whole list, and monero was the only decent privacy recomendation I could find. Everything else was US-hosted. A lot of it was just recommendations from Apple and Google on “privacy” services they offer.

No mention of syncthing, matrix, xmpp, even with sections dedicated to those categories.

We don’t have this in jerboa, as I don’t want to add “custom” features that are only available to jerboa, and not to every app. So this would need to be done in the back end first.

But also just block those communities, and if US spam is spilling over everywhere (like it does on reddit), then report those posts.

Wise decision.

Yes, I believe all the messages are in plain text, and it’s up to the server not to log it.

It is possible to e2ee the message content yourself tho.

Edit: it looks like ntfy.sh specifically keeps messages cached in memory for a few hours befor discarding them. https://docs.ntfy.sh/config/

Russia would need a hundred years more of existence to even come close to the amount of atrocities the US has and continues to commit.

Redditors can’t help themselves but be racist against russians.

For sure, stuxnet is just the beginning, who knows what the US will subject the world to next.

The country that Linux is domiciled in currently (US), has slave labor camps:

• The US currently operates a system of slave labor camps, including at least 54 prison farms involved in agricultural slave labor. Outside of agricultural slavery, Federal Prison Industries operates a multi-billion dollar industry with ~ 52 prison factories , where prisoners produce furniture, clothing, circuit boards, products for the military, computer aided design services, call center support for private companies. 1, 2, 3

It also has the highest prisoner population in the world both by capita and total.

Russia’s prison rates don’t even come close to the majority of US states, including even California.

Theodore T’so especially:

first comment:

The question of why a particular country has decided to sanction Russia and not Ukraine, and why a country has decided to support one country versus another, whether it’s Germany, France, and Poland sending tanks and armored vehicles to Ukraine, or North Korea sending artillary shells to Russia, is not up to the Linux development commuity.

next comment:

Sanctions are imposed by Governments — for example, the US, European, Japan, Switzerland, Norway, etc. Not Linux developers, nor Russian troll farms, nor Russia’s useful idiots on the internet. It’s not up to anyone on this mail thread.

Damn there are a surprising number of maintainers that are comrades and not taking this lying down from the western supremacist cohort.

Linus opened up a massive can of worms and turned this into a geopolitical conflict by acting like a baby.

This comment by Hantong Chen is great:

Hi James,

Here’s what Linus has said, and it’s more than just “sanction.”

Moreover, we have to remove any maintainers who come from the following countries or regions, as they are listed in Countries of Particular Concern and are subject to impending sanctions:

• Burma, People’s Republic of China, Cuba, Eritrea, Iran, the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, Nicaragua, Pakistan, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Tajikistan, and Turkmenistan.
• Algeria, Azerbaijan, the Central African Republic, Comoros, and Vietnam.

For People’s Republic of China, there are about 500 entities that are on the U.S. OFAC SDN / non-SDN lists, especially HUAWEI, which is one of the most active employers from versions 5.16 through 6.1, according to statistics. This is unacceptable, and we must take immediate action to address it, with the same reason.

What an extremely dangerous place to domicile such an important project.

Not in list view, as that’s a compact view that doesn’t have an action bar like the others.

Stuxnet is just the beginning. Who knows how many hidden programs they’re running and building, how many certs and VPNs are compromised, what encryption algos they’ve cracked, what platforms they have full and instant access to, what critical infrastructure they’ve rigged to blow, just waiting for a go code…

We won’t know for 20 years at least.

Another great one is “larry thorne”, aka Lauri Törni, a finnish nazi (buried with the highest honors in USA’s Arlington cemetary btw) who fought against communists and lost 3 times (twice against the USSR, then took an L in Vietnam).

This wiki sidebar sure is one
