"You build atomic bombs, you wage wars, you murder, cheat, and lie to us and try to make us believe it's for our own good, yet we're the criminals."

still true, 40 years later...

My senator supports the US acquiring Greenland. That is unacceptable. I have called and sent an email asking him to explain himself, and expressing outrage at the idea.

This is beyond stupid.

De-Re'publicanification is the moderate position. De-Lib'ertarianification, too.

Zine in print ASAP, with three more pages!!, in the post for subscribers first.

A few days ago, a client’s data center "vanished" overnight. My monitoring showed that all devices were unreachable. Not even the ISP routers responded, so I assumed a sudden connectivity drop. The strange part? Not even via 4G.

I then suspected a power failure, but the UPS should have sent an alert.

The office was closed for the holidays, but I contacted the IT manager anyway. He was home sick with a serious family issue, but he got moving.

To make a long story short: the company deals in gold and precious metals. They have an underground bunker with two-meter thick walls. They were targeted by a professional gang. They used a tactic seen in similar hits: they identify the main power line, tamper with it at night, and send a massive voltage spike through it.

The goal is to fry all alarm and surveillance systems. Even if battery-backed, they rarely survive a surge like that. Thieves count on the fact that during holidays, owners are away and fried systems can't send alerts. Monitoring companies often have reduced staff and might not notice the "silence" immediately.

That is exactly what happened here. But there is a "but": they didn't account for my Uptime Kuma instance monitoring their MikroTik router, installed just weeks ago. Since it is an external check, it flagged the lack of response from all IPs without needing an internal alert to be triggered from the inside.

The team rushed to the site and found the mess. Luckily, they found an emergency electrical crew to bypass the damage and restore the cameras and alarms. They swapped the fried server UPS with a spare and everything came back up.

The police warned that the chances of the crew returning the next night to "finish" the job were high, though seeing the systems back online would likely make them move on. They also warned that thieves sometimes break in just to destroy servers to wipe any video evidence.

Nothing happened in the end. But in the meantime, I had to sync all their data off-site (thankfully they have dual 1Gbps FTTH), set up an emergency cluster, and ensure everything was redundant.

Never rely only on internal monitoring. Never.

So, people in #IT. Say for some reason we in Europe can no longer get access to US based services. What's your favourite non-US alternative for different types of essential services? How would you for instance replace your current solution for identity management? #cloud #infotech #beredskap #preparedness

Boycott all movies, entertainments, concerts, newspapers which are in any way connected with the quisling authorities.

Darren Michael was fired from his teaching job for reposting a comment Charlie Kirk made after his death.

He’s now been reinstated and will receive half a million dollars in compensation.

We need more of this.

Hundreds were fired for just reposting Kirk’s own words.

Some people were deported.

It was censorship and bullying and they should all be rehired and allowed to return home.

In December, a memo from the DoJ was leaked that said Pam Bondi wants to charge anyone filming ICE enforcement with domestic terrorism.

Today is a perfect example of why they’re so desperate to prevent people from recording their atrocities.

Everyone who filmed Renee Good being murdered was performing an act of resistance.

They guaranteed the truth will out.

Never forget you have power.

Documenting atrocities helps us fight the fascists.

One of our most important tasks in saving American democracy is to help the wider public understand this: When the Trump regime's masked immigration thugs injure or kill people, as is becoming more common, government statements about what happened are likely to be lies.

“…witnesses said a doctor was at the scene and tried to help the woman who had been shot, but the ICE agents refused to let the doctor in to help. Up to 15 minutes later, an ambulance arrived but was blocked by ICE vehicles that had occupied the street.” https://www.fox9.com/news/minneapolis-ice-shooting-witnesses

In light of the murder by ICE, this article shows people banding together to stop ICE.

The town's folk even move against ICE after this. The people are trained and coordinated. Look in your local town and city for similar and join them.

You don't have to figure out what to do. You don't have to build something from nothing. Groups and training are already in place. You just need to join.

This is an amazing article: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/jan/07/ice-shooting-minneapolis-minnesota-reaction
