You’re literally the standards body of surveillance capitalism. Shut the fuck up about privacy. The corporate members that fund your existence violate privacy as the core driver of their business models.

Fucking hypocrites doing fucking PR.

Right---privacy is not some academic curiosity in desperate need of debate and clarification. It is a pressing, immediate real-world problem that everyone understands in a practical way.

So what effect is w3c having in practice on privacy on the web? Who supports w3C, and what does that means in practice? That is is all anyone should pay attention to, not whether hypocrites are getting their statement of "principles" just right.

To the white Jewish shapeshifting protesters I saw last week holding a sign that said, “If you’re white you’re automatically antisemitic”, you really aren’t doing yourselves any future favors. Your overlords, your Zuckerbergs, Yellens, Soros, Mayorkas, your Finks-will hang you out to dry for their world communist cause so fast it will make your kippah fly off, just like they did in WW2.

Dear #Debian developers,

Of all the goddamn files, for all the goddamn things, must you insist on putting this file in the root of my $HOME?

Yes it's a dot-file. Yes it's supposed to be hidden. But I want to see other hidden files and folders in my $HOME and this one just sticks out like a sore thumb.

And I can't even fucking delete it either! (I mean, I can...)

Because if I do, I'll just be greeted with a nanny-state warning message again about sudoing like I'm a Linux green-horn. (Been using Linux since the early 1990s.)

So I beg you, please reconsider.

Consider a file in /etc or adopting the GECOS field in /etc/passwd or a completely separate file in /etc that you can append to when I sudo to root.

But please keep some shit out of my $HOME if you can!

Sincerely,
Me

Dear #Ubuntu (or derivative) user,

This behaviour is as implemented by the upstream sudo project and is not specific to #Debian or derivatives.

OTOH the message you get if the file is not there is specific to Ubuntu (see /etc/bash.bashrc). Debian remains silent if the file is not there.

Good news however: thanks to Ubuntu you can configure this.

You may now want to take a look at the sudoers(5) man page and the admin_flag option.

Cheers!

“The handwringing is just another bit of stagecraft, little different from the earlier mix of silence and talk about Israel’s ‘right to defend itself’. And it is to the same purpose: to buy Israel time to ‘finish the job’ – that is, to complete its genocide and ethnic cleansing of Gaza.”

Otto von Bismarck: Struggle is everywhere, without struggle no life, and if we want to go on living, we must be ready for further struggles. wordsmith.social/protestation/…


Quotes

  • Otto Kuusinen: As long as the working class wages only an economic struggle, the bourgeoisie does not see in that any great danger for itself; but when the working class organises politically, i.e., creates a political party which expresses its will as a class, the bourgeoisie begins seriously to fear for its rule. That is why reaction deals its main blows against the political party of the working class. At the same time, trying to undermine the party from within, capitalist propaganda endeavours to persuade the workers that they can do without their own party. One of the manifestations of bourgeois influence on the working class is the anarchist and anarcho-syndicalist denial of the leading role of a political party.
  • Democritus: Not from fear but from a sense of duty refrain from your sins.
  • Democritus: Many who have not learned wisdom live wisely, and many who do the basest deeds can make most learned speeches.
  • Democritus: Fools learn wisdom through misfortune.
  • Democritus: Strength of body is nobility in beasts of burden, strength of character is nobility in men.
  • Democritus: Neither art nor wisdom may be attained without learning.
  • Democritus: It is better to correct your own faults than those of another.
  • Democritus: Good means not (merely) not to do wrong, but rather not to desire to do wrong.
  • Democritus: Fame and wealth without wisdom are unsafe possessions.
  • Muammar Gaddafi: We will not surrender. We will defeat them by any means. We are ready for the fight, whether it will be a short or a long one. We will be victorious in the end. This assault is by a bunch of fascists who will end up in the dustbin of history.
  • Democritus: By convention sweet is sweet, bitter is bitter, hot is hot, cold is cold, color is color; but in truth there are only atoms and the void.
  • Democritus: We know nothing accurately in reality, but (only) as it changes according to the bodily condition, and the constitution of those things that flow upon (the body) and impinge upon it.
  • Democritus: Medicine heals diseases of the body, wisdom frees the soul from passions.
  • Democritus: Immoderate desire is the mark of a child, not a man.
  • Democritus: Men have fashioned an image of Chance as an excuse for their own stupidity.
  • Democritus: In a shared fish, there are no bones.
  • Democritus: Education is an ornament for the prosperous, a refuge for the unfortunate.
  • Democritus: The animal needing something knows how much it needs, the man does not.
  • Democritus: Moderation multiplies pleasures, and increases pleasure.
  • Democritus: If your desires are not great, a little will seem much to you; for small appetite makes poverty equivalent to wealth.
  • Democritus: No power and no treasure can outweigh the extension of our knowledge.
  • Democritus: In fact we do not know anything infallibly, but only that which changes according to the condition of our body and of the (influences) that reach and impinge upon it.
  • Democritus: Of practical wisdom these are the three fruits: to deliberate well, to speak to the point, to do what is right.
  • Democritus: 'Tis not in strength of body nor in gold that men find happiness, but in uprightness and in fulness of understanding.
  • Democritus: He who does wrong is more unhappy than he who suffers wrong.
  • Samuel P. Huntington: The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion (to which few members of other civilizations were converted) but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.
  • Marjori Palmer: One of the most morale-damaging aspects of the inflation was the "sack of Germany" that occurred at the height of the (1923) inflation. Anyone who possessed dollars or sterling was king in Germany. A few American dollars would allow a man to live like a millionaire. Foreigners swarmed into the country, buying up family treasures, estates, jewelry and art works at unbelievable low prices.
  • Lionel Robbins: It was the most colossal thing of its kind in history: and next probably to the Great War itself, it must bear responsibility for many of the political and economic difficulties of our generation. It destroyed the wealth of the more solid elements of German society: and left behind a moral and economic disequilibrium, a breeding ground for the disasters which have followed. Hitler is the foster child of the inflation.
  • Lenin: There is no trace of utopianism in Marx, in the sense that he made up or invented a 'new' society. No, he studied the birth of the new society out of the old, and the forms of transition from the latter to the former, as a natural-historical process. He examined the actual experience of a proletarian mass movement and tried to draw practical lessons from it.
  • Che Guevara: Many will call me an adventurer - and that I am, only one of a different sort: one of those who risks his skin to prove his platitudes.
  • Democritus: The first principles of the universe are atoms and empty space; everything else is merely thought to exist.
  • Bertolt Brecht: Lenin is enshrined In the large heart of the working class.

In a weird twist of fate, both diplomats were Leftists. Yarón Lischinsky was a Christian Israeli, heavily focused on 'interfaith dialogue' & Sarah Milgrim was a Tech2Peace employee previously. The jihadis always kill those who show them compassion.

À la fin du XIXe siècle, une décision a été prise lors des premiers Jeux olympiques modernes. Tous les athlètes allaient courir dans le sens des aiguilles d’une montre. Mais en 1913, les athlètes se sont rebellés en signalant qu’ils avaient vraiment beaucoup de mal à être au top de leurs performances en courant dans le sens des aiguilles d’une montre et ont demandé à inverser le sens de leur rotation. Ils ont obtenu gain de cause. Ce n’est qu’en 2004 qu’un chercheur japonais a compris pourquoi les athlètes s’étaient ainsi rebellés. Hideaki Fukami retient une chose. Les athlètes disent être plus à l’aise en tournant vers la gauche. Il décide donc de les
faire courir un 400 mètres dans les deux sens pour comparer. Il constate alors que leur temps est meilleur lorsqu’ils prennent les virages avec la corde à gauche (donc en partant dans le sens inverse des aiguilles d’une montre). Il en conclut que l’hémisphère droit permet l’estimation de l’espace, mais que le gauche améliore très nettement la vision, donc diminue le risque de chute et permet un meilleur appui sur la jambe gauche des athlètes droitiers

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordered a renewed offensive in Gaza with the aim of retaking the entire strip and eliminating Hamas. As a result, the country’s foreign allies have begun to substantially push back on Jerusalem and public opinion has turned decidedly against the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) and their ongoing efforts in the coastal region.

Twelfth Plenary Meeting of Eighth C. C., WPK to Be Convened #DPRK kfauk.com/twelfth-plenary-meet…

first thing I heard on the news this morning... some guy with a handgun walks up to a group of 4 people coming out of the Washington DC Jewish Museum... - and then kills only 2 of them.

anyways, I thought, "well... that's sus AF". (has anyone searched their social media for anti-Netanyahoo posts?)

and now, I find out the guy is an Hispanic Communist.

the irony...

(If you don't understand, just move along... and maybe look into the Spanish Civil War as well as Golem mythology)

Federated Services

Federated Services are services which many instances form a network to provide a greater whole than the sum of their parts, each participant in the Fediverse is an “instance”. A message or other item made available on one instance is visible and available on other instances.

We make these services available to all people who do not abuse it in order to promote the values of Free Speech, and those of the United States Constitution First Amendment. A free republic is not possible without free speech and commercial mainstream media do not provide it. We also get some advertisement benefit from hosting these, it is our hope that people who see how fast and responsible our services are will decide to do hosting or use other paid services here.

There are numerous federated services available, we offer Macrobloging platform Friendica, Hubzilla; Microbloging services Mastodon, Misskey, a federated search engine, Yacy, and a federated cloud service, Nextcloud.

Macrobloging services are message systems that allow long form posts similar in format to Facebook. These allow for works of fiction, poetry, technical papers, news items, short stories, and more. These formats are most useful for discussion of social issues.

Microbloging services allow only short form posts similar in format to Twitter. While you can link to larger articles elsewhere, you have a relatively short character limit and so can not post them directly.

Censorship, is handled much different on the fediverse than on mainstream media like Twitter or Facebook. On the fediverse, each individual instance is responsible for content available on that instance, but does not censor the rest of the network. Thus if you find the rules of one instance too constraining you can move to another.

Federated search engines are analogous to federated message systems in that each instance chooses what portion of the internet it wants to crawl. When you enter a search term, the local instance queries all of the federated instances, collates and sorts the results and presents them to you. As with messages, each instance can have it’s own censorship policies but no one instance can censor the entire network.

Given the wild-west nature of the fediverse, it is probably not suitable for children under 14, and you’re guaranteed to find some material that will offend virtually everyone. With federated search engines, material that is inappropriate will usually be flagged sensitive or nsfw (not safe for work) so as long as you don’t expand material marked as such, you can avoid this sort of material. There are occasionally people who violate these rules, we do our best to remove such individuals none the less some will get through.

We offer the following federated services:

Friendica.Eskimo.Com
Friendica is a decentralized long format macrobloging message network. It is similar in format to facebook however there is no centralized censorship. Also, it is able to federate with all other federated message systems which use ActivityPub protocol and also we have extensions that allow it to speak to several other networks via other protocols.

Hubzilla.Eskimo.Com
Hubzilla is similar in message format to Friendica in that it allows long posts. However, it specializes in it’s ability to provide connectivity to multiple protocols and so we include it in our mix of federated services primarily for the better connectivity it offers. Hubzilla provides a great deal of interoperability between many networks though ActivityPub is still it’s primary protocol. Hubzilla gives you a greater degree of control over privacy than some of the other networks. You can create private channels that are served between hubzilla instances and other compatible instances.

Mastodon.Eskimo.Com
Mastodon is first and foremost an alternative to Twitter. While Twitter has Tweets, Mastodon has Toots. The format is very similar. Mastodon toots have a limit of 500 characters. Similar to the short limit of Twitter. This is why this platform is referred to as a Microbloging format. Mastodon interacts with other ActivityPub instances however when a long form blog post from another instance arrives, you are only shown a short portion with a link to follow to see the full post on the originating site.

NextCloud.Eskimo.Com
If you are a customer of Eskimo North, your login credentials will work without a domain extension to access Nextcloud. If you are not a customer you can apply for a Nextcloud account using your choice of login and password, in this case the login should include your originating network. Some features require an Eskimo North shell account to take full advantage of.

Pixelfed.Eskimo.Com
Pixelfed is a federated pixel gallery. A place where you can share your photos to the widest audience possible, and you can view what others have shared. Instance is new as of April 6th, 2025.


Yacy.Eskimo.Com
Yacy is a federated search engine. There are several thousand instances on the Internet. Each instances crawls whatever portion of the web the administrator requested. It is also possible for the administrator of a site with relatively few resources to request a larger site to do crawls on their behalf. Unfortunately, it does not provide a method for an end user to initiate a crawl, but if you send e-mail to support@eskimo.com and request a crawl, we will initiate a crawl on your behalf.

Remote desktop capability is like having a monitor, keyboard, mouse, and speakers plugged right into our servers. Because our servers can be accessed anywhere in the world, this allows you to have a work environment you can access from anywhere in the world without risking losing your files to a laptop, tablet, or phone thief. We offer remote desktop capabilities on all of our shell servers except for the SunOS server. We support x2go, nx, vnc, and rdp protocols. X2go is the best choice as it provides extremely efficient compression and X round trip removal as well as sound.

Applications

Our mail system includes Bayesian filtering with Spam Assassin which can be individually configured for your needs. Procmail allows you to sort and process mail automatically. Smartlist allows you to maintain mailing lists.

Security
Access to all of our servers is available via strong encryption. The shell servers all support ssh access. All of the remote desktop protocols tunnel via ssh. We maintain all of our servers up to date keep with the latest patches. Backups are made weekly.

Eskimo North has been providing Unix timeshare services since 1985. We have been providing Linux timeshare, shell access, web hosting, e-mail, and Internet services since 1992. Please take a look at our services as they support our free Federated services including Friendica, Hubzilla, Mastodon, Nextcloud, Pixelfed, and Yacy Search.

The Gaza War Comes to DC

One of the many benefits of #globalization and #mass-immigration is the way that different groups of #foreigners can extend their violent #conflicts to your country.


A pro-Palestinian gunman suspected of shooting a young #Jewish diplomatic couple dead was seen in chilling video manically screaming #FreePalestine as he was hauled into custody. Chilling footage emerged overnight of 30-year-old Elias Rodriguez as he was taken into custody after two #Israeli #embassy #staffers were gunned down outside the Capital Jewish Museum in #Washington D.C.

Israeli embassy staffer Yaron Lischinsky and his girlfriend Sarah Milgrim were identified as the victims in the vile attack that was condemned by #President #DonaldTrump. Lischinsky was a German-Israeli dual national employed as a research assistant for Middle East & North African Affairs at the Embassy’s Political Department, according to his LinkedIn profile.

Details emerged of the suspect’s background and political affiliations overnight on Thursday, including his reported membership of a #far-left group. He’s believed to have been involved in activism with the Part for Socialisma and Liberation and #BlackLivesMatter.


And now we get to listen to somber #lectures about #anti-semitism, #October-7th, and the #Holocaust, as if tens of thousands of #Palestinians aren’t being #murdered in their #homeland. But it’s really not that difficult. #Pakistanis and #Indians are squaring off everywhere from #Toronto to #Birmingham, #UK because of what’s taking place in #Kashmir. The Israeli diplomat was targeted for #assassination because of what #Israel is doing in #Gaza, not because random Hispanic immigrants happen to harbor irrational #hatred for #Jews.

What should be of considerably more concern to everyone is that the killer wasn’t #Palestinian, or even #Arab or #Muslim. It’s another sign that the vast #majority of the #world is vehemently opposed to the #Netanyahu #regime and its #insane #campaign of #murderous #ethnic #cleansing in #Gaza. It’s a little difficult to convincingly cry victim when everyone knows which party is the aggressor and initiated the hostilities.
