WASHINGTON — Two high-ranking employees of liberal billionaire George Soros’ Open Society Foundations held “confidential conversations” with the Democratic National Committee and Hillary Clinton’s campaign team in 2016 to push the narrative of collusion between Russia and GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump, newly declassified intelligence files show.

in reply to YoungBlood

The documents revealed that Leonard Benardo and Jeffrey Goldstein — Open Society’s regional director and senior policy adviser for Eurasia, respectively — held talks with then-DNC chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz in early 2016 about smearing Trump as well as distracting from the “growing scandal” surround Clinton’s “possible corruption” as secretary of state.

@Steve In Texas The Carrington event and huge magnetic storms in general are very low frequency and thus long wavelength in nature, they affect the power grid, which means your computers might temporarily go down though most data centers these days are ups and diesel or natural gas generator backed, communications relying on grid will go down, but these fields won't affect hard drives or small electronics consequently while your coin might not be accessible until power and communications are restored, it won't be lost. Modern grids are moving towards HVDC because it moves energy without the radiative loss and skin effect IR loss of AC power. These systems also are not impacted by geomagnetic storms.

I need to tell you something unsatisfying: your personal consumption choices will not make a meaningful difference to the amount of enshittification you experience in your life


Here's why you're getting enshittified: we deliberately decided to stop enforcing competition laws. As a result, companies formed monopolies and cartels. This means that they don't have to worry about losing your business or labor to a competitor, because they don't compete. It also means that they can handily capture their regulators, because they can easily agree on a set of policy priorities and use the billions they've amassed by not competing to capture their regulators. They can hold a whip hand over their formerly powerful tech workers, mass-firing them and terrorizing them out of any Tron-inspired conceits about "fighting for the user." Finally, they can use IP law to shut down anyone who makes technology that disenshittifies their offerings.

@WalterKühl You and I both, but many don't which is why we see so many exploits and bugs resulting from buffer overflows, use after free, etc. Those of us who first learned to program in assembly or even long term Unix programmers have always had to deal with memory allocation and management and as a consequence are more disciplined than Windows programmers used to working in C# which does it's own memory management via garbage collection.

Reminder to all that #Firefox actually kinda sucks and #Mozilla is kind of a shitty company.

#Chromium is not the answer, obviously; its downstream is inherently fucked because Chromium itself as a standard is ruining the internet.

However, Firefox's downstream is fine.

Good alternatives:
Floorp (Probably the best, a fairly divergent fork, like the Vivaldi of Firefoxes)
Waterfox (Independent once again; Firefox without the bullshit)
Librewolf (Extremely private zero-bullshit Firefox)

Raise Your Voice (Original Song) by Seth Staton Watkins

Lyrics


When the genocidal army came to lay the people low, to spirit them away from lands their feet had always known, the leaders of the “free world” turned away their greedy eyes to protect the settler colony and spread outrageous lies

Raise your voice for humanity
Raise your voice to the indignity
Raise your voice for the thousands who’ve been slain
We sing their names for freedom yet to still be attained

When the young folk made a stand to fight for all the human race, our leaders called them evil as they blinded them with mace, yet stronger still they cried out loud for freedom to ring true, oh an end to the apartheid is so long overdue

Raise your voice for humanity
Raise your voice to the indignity
Raise your voice for the thousands who’ve been slain
We sing their names for freedom yet to still be attained

Now we see the rich folk smiling at their galas and soirées, as the children of Gaza their mangled bodies laid, their hungry eyes and blood soaked hair still left out in the shade of the dimly shining ego lining pompous parade

Raise your voice for humanity
Raise your voice to the indignity
Raise your voice for the thousands who’ve been slain
We sing their names for freedom yet to still be attained

To all the gallant heroes who boycott and divest, who stand against a occupying army’s evil zest, I say to you dear comrades stay strong until the end, free Palestine forever is the message we will send

Raise your voice for humanity
Raise your voice to the indignity
Raise your voice for the thousands who’ve been slain
We sing their names for freedom yet to still be attained

Raise your voice for humanity
Raise your voice to the indignity
Raise your voice for the thousands who’ve been slain
We sing their names for freedom yet to still be attained

My ideal package manager design for a programming language:

  • Packages are downloaded over a P2P system, like BitTorrent or IPFS
  • The package manager runs as a daemon and seeds all downloaded packages
  • There is also a centralized site, which is a directory that maps packages to hashes/torrents; also has documentation and search
  • The site has an open API that other sites can replicate
  • Project files reference packages by both name/version and hash; the hashes remain valid even if the site goes down
  • The site has human moderation and handles detecting malware, spam, etc. and removing it
  • Package names always have a username prefix
  • The site's staff can choose to bless a package as the preferred implementation of some feature, giving it a non-prefixed name

I havent used Ubuntu in a long time but im guessing its a similar process to Debian. Open terminal and type

sudo apt install gnome-tweaks

sudo apt install gnome-shell-extensions

sudo apt install gnome-shell-extension-manager


Go into the extension manager. Click browse and search for and get blur my shell, and User Themes. Go to gnome-look.org and go to the gnome shell section and find a theme you like. Place it in the /.themes folder (located in Home create this folder if needed), then click the gear next to User Themes and select the theme you added.

Make sure you get a gnome theme that is made for your current version of gnome or itll look janky. Blur my shell will take your desktop background and fill in some of the dead space with that. There are other nice extensions too. Lock screen Background, AppIndicator and KstatusNotifierItem Support, Caffeine, Weather O'Clock, are some i use.

Mess around with it a bit and get a feel for it is my suggestion. It should be easily reversible so dont be afraid to try stuff out. (You can turn extensions on/off with a click)

You know, putting up a black theme on your desktop environment is not difficult, you can probably find some online for your DE. The problem is the screen of your laptop/PC. Unless your laptop/monitor is a very expensive one, or a Mac, chances are you're using a cheaper panel. And slapping a 100% black theme there won't make it as black as you imagine it to be (as in your phone, for example, which usually use good quality screens).

Palestine o Palestine
By calling for your freedom
I will set me free
From separation and distortion
Of reality.
O Palestine!
I will free you
You will free me.

Palestine o Palestine
By calling for your freedom
I will set me free
From separation and destruction
Of reality.
From separation from my soul
O Palestine!
It’s all or nothing at all.

Palestine o Palestine
By calling for your freedom
I will set me free
From occupation and destruction
Of reality
O Palestine!
I will free you
You will free me.

Palestine o Palestine
By calling for your freedom
I will set me free
From separation and destruction
And confusion and addiction
And illusion and distortion
Of reality
From separation from my soul
O Palestine!
It’s all or nothing at all.

Yes, Absolutely.

The Russian Military Is Falling Apart
Now you know, the truth is out. But give Russians the credit where the credit is due--they hid it extremely well. How about hiding it by steady advance to the West, while annihilating NATO's SOBs? Such a cunning. But then again, look at the background of this "author".

Reuben F. Johnson has thirty-six years of experience analyzing and reporting on foreign weapons systems, defense technologies, and international arms export policy. Johnson is the Director of Research at the Casimir Pulaski Foundation. He is also a survivor of the Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.

He worked for years in the American defense industry as a foreign technology analyst and later as a consultant for the U.S. Department of Defense, the Departments of the Navy and Air Force, and the governments of the United Kingdom and Australia. In 2022-2023, he won two awards in a row for his defense reporting. He holds a bachelor's degree from DePauw University and a master's degree from Miami University in Ohio, specializing in Soviet and Russian studies. He lives in Warsaw.

And that is why NATO is a paper tiger incapable of real war, with experts and consultants like these ...

I spent an unfortunate amount of time in a hospital room over the past few days. At times, it was just easier to have the wall-mounted TV on.

HOLY CRAP! Broadcast TV advertisements are DAMNED ANNOYING!

I cut the chord over 10 years ago and coming back to commercial breaks is infuriating. Well over half of all commercials are drug ads - and most of those were gay Black men with HIV.

Non-drug ads were ridiculously obnoxious, stupid, and all CGI.

Truly the last gasp of a dying monster. /rant

I'm fine - it was a family member - appendectomy.

And that's another thing! Do the designers of hospital furniture actually spend *any* time on their creations?

I went through three different recliners trying to find one I could maybe possibly actually fall asleep on.

I looked, but I couldn't find the Kouchtown label. 😵‍💫 [/rant]
