"A federal judge has officially approved a class-action lawsuit against Nancy Pelosi.

Over 500 J6 patriots are now united — seeking $350 million in damages for what they claim was a coordinated setup.

According to the lawsuit, Pelosi orchestrated the entire event… luring peaceful protesters into the Capitol, then labeling them “violent insurrectionists” to push a narrative.

If she’s found liable, it could bankrupt her.

This is no longer . . ."

Lol, 'hate chants'

As if the Daily Mail would have a problem with 30,000 people chanting "FUCK KEIR STARMER"

Oh the other thing we chanted was "Free, Free Palestine"

Are those the 'hate chants' the fash ghouls at the Mail are on about?

Ask me, I was there.....with Tim Davie, lol

What many don’t know, due to a twisted recollection of history mainly by Western countries, is that Cuba is actually a progressive nation, especially when it comes to the rights of #queer people. Here is some background just to catch people up to speed.

I did the 3 hr R/T to Costco today and after going through the store and dodging people that have no sense of their position in space I realized that they don't have anything I really need to buy there.
The main reason for the trip was to use my earned Costco $ before I get rid of their CC.
BTW, if you don't spend all the $ at checkout, they give you the difference back in cash.

How Do People NOT Know This About Pop Music?

youtube.com/watch?v=l93JOUJZEo…

Rick Beto nails it on pop songs being assembled by pro hired gun writers who have written hits for everyone in pop music. Worth it 2 see the lists of hits for clients of a few pros he cites. Also lyrics are meaningless. Crafted and video storyboarded, every inch committee fabricated, not artist personal impression. Yet ppl debate artists' meanings when they had no input.

@Smeetoo @Metalglasses and yet those people have millions of plays online which I guess is how it's calculated now instead of album sales. You figure it's mostly people in other countries playing them and some young stupid kids here so you're not likely to know who they are without gossip sites shoving their names in your face constantly. And still it's who the fuck is that nobody? Which are all simply extensions of the industry process he's explaining.

They don't buy music anymore, they just create online playlist that they play iver and over, so the song is constantly streamed. Us old folks would buy the 45, LP, cassette, or CD and play that, so it was one sale. This is why the "artists" get fractions if a penny per stream. 12 yr old girls streaming the same song 20 times a day vs playing the media version we bought over and over

Yes, I know I left out 8 tracks

Is there a way to turn off notifs for posts that you dont want to hear about replies anymore from but that you think should stay up as a valuable forum for discussion (just dont want to be updated)

Sometimes I really want to just delete a post but I think thats a bit heavy-handed and I keep hoping theres a way to simply mute it so its not disrupting me when I've moved on from it but dont want to invalidate all the repliers and also posterity

I've always been about starting or igniting discussion but I dont really care to always be so attached at the hip to every topic I start till every bloody end


AppImage is a frustrating invention for Linux. It should work like macOS's .app, but it falls short. Getting an app to run and dock always involves tinkering and manually deploying a .desktop item, among other hassles.

I wish I had known about Gear Lever for Gnome earlier. omgubuntu.co.uk/2024/07/gear-l…

Gear Lever makes updating AppImage apps much easier. I prefer .deb packages, but too many apps don't offer them.

Sounds like what you really need is the approach that Qubes takes. Put each app in its own mini self-contained VM.

@gme Nah. Sandboxes would be sufficient. Especially to allow hardware access. But Flatpak externalizes a lot of things and most things can't be gotten as a single .flatpak file. (There doesn't even seem to be a reasonable way to export to this or something.)

Like it's almost there. It's so close.

That said, it still does a lot of stuff right like sandboxing a lot, having access controls that can be enabled, and dependencies can be separate so things don't break just because of updates. EDIT: Oh and it doesn't require a dedicated OS...

esphome device encryption key after HA reinstall


I lost my esphome config in HA. I have several devices (sonoff S31) that show up in HA asking for encryption keys when I try to add them, which I don't have as old HA vm is gone. Is there anyway to reset them to base esphome config without disassembling and reflashing esphome? From what I can tell googling this, the answer is no, but thought I'd ask before I go ahead with that plan.
