Old Fucking Punk @lwriemen@librem.one

Zuck's nuts for wasting the GDP of most nations trying to come up with his first original idea that doesn't suck instead of buying another app people are addicted to. The gambling apps are right there.

Given the newly announced 10% Greenland extortion, can we please give @pluralistic suggestion of repealing anti-cricumvention (DMCA equivalents) across Europe and the world a go?

I used to have a vegan blog "Surviving as a vegan in Croatia" and I stopped posting when Croatia joined the EU and we got all the possible vegan products. I also stopped checking the mail account I linked there (masked, so that spam bots can't pick it up), and today Google threatened it would delete it, so I logged in. The mail I got in the meantime::
- a few people asking me why I stopped posting
- people asking "who deals with veganism" in a certain part of Croatia
- person asking me how to go vegan from an official email address of their business (kindergarten)
- someone offering me a guest post about dentistry and then getting angry when I didn't respond
- hate mail from a bodybuilder
- a graduate asking if I could write parts of their bachelor thesis about the "influence of the Internet on making athletes adopt veganism or vegetarianism"
- a phishing attempt in Esperanto from a domain registered without privacy, so I have the guy's name, phone number, and home address, in Zagreb

Hey over on another social media site most of the people here hate that isn't X I saw a link that let you buy surveillance equipment on behalf of people in Minnesota who were monitoring ICE (body cams and dash cams mostly I think). I thought it was a good idea but irresponsibly didn't save the link. Anyone here know anything about that? Can you point me in the right direction?

DHS lies.

They blame the victim.

They make peaceful protesters out to be “agitators”.

ICE threw a flashbang into a car full of children and sent a 6 month old to hospital unable to breathe.

What did DHS post?

“Stop endangering your children!”

They blamed the father.

They’ve now deleted the post after it came out the dad was driving his kids home from a sporting event and had nothing to do with the protest.

Believe nothing they say. Wait for the investigation.

One of the collectives we supported through DIY Solidarity last year was Ihitiko Ksespasma in Greece, helping them buy a PA for gigs at their squat. Next week, we’re starting another round of interviews with DIY Solidarity fund recipients, but this conversation with the Greek comrades is among my favorites so far. We talked about the legacy of squats like Villa Amalias, and the ideological rupture between playing squats versus bars and regular venues. Recommended read.

At least 15 vehicles allegedly belonging to ICE were painted with “ICE” to alert community members in Eagan, MN

CBS isn't the only so-called journalism outlet that routinely does stenography for the completely dishonest Trump regime, but it was particularly disgusting in its blatantly bogus report after an ICE thug's murder of Renee Good.

As you would now expect from CBS "News" --

Lang’s rally will begin in downtown Minneapolis at city hall, starting with a rally followed by a march to the Cedar Riverside neighborhood, home to a large population of Somalis.

Following the ICE murder of Renee Good and an assault on the state by federal immigration forces, a labor-community coalition is calling for residents to refuse to work, shop or go to school on January 23. We stand with folks refusing to work in Minnesota, and everywhere else.

If your whole business model is theft, you cannot survive on your own.

We can.

We will outlast you & your death urges & we will build something better & in some measure, it will be built upon the model of our first attempts, the ones that showed it was possible.

#FuckAI & all its enablers.

ok, I woke up with another reason why this wikipedia sell out has me so angry...

I've long held up gifting economy models like wikipedia (and reddit and craigslist and buy nothing) as #Solarpunk In Real Life, here today, manifesting the better world I want to see.

hello all,

Are any of you involved in meet.coop or aware about it being down right now? I'm just looking for ideas about if/when/how we'll be able to use it again.

I searched here a little bit but easily could have missed a thread in case I'm asking a question that's been answered.

Thanks!

I have been using an ultrawide monitor for a while - I got seduced into the idea of "hey, this really big monitor can replace your two monitor setup, you'll use less electricity and it'll save space." And I think both those points are true, but I also think I've lost some utility. Two separate monitors are essentially two separate desktop environments joined together, and that has a lot of advantages with the things I do. What do you think? Two monitors functionally better than one ultrawide?
