if this data is public information, then why does it need encrypted secrecy, paywalls, or any kind of gatekeeping?

if the information does need to be protected from the public, then it must be private data and flock is an illegal system


big up all massive

flacs on archive.org would be nice


i understand why so many republicans wanna bury and forget epstein. (to protect trump and his associates)

why are so many democrats against releasing the truth about epstein? Are they also loyal to trump, and if not, who are they protecting? (bill gates?)


can someone explain why these development/SBC/foss friendly boards always have terrible support?!?? Particularly in these areas:

1. no vanilla kernel support

2. often require patches and blobs in the kernel

3. worst or nonexisting gpu acceleration

4. just not opensource in general, from blobs to drivers, to closed source boot code

why are these boards being sold as developer friendly when they are often less useful than their x86 counterparts, and very often less opensource?!


is this really news?! every smart device does this everyone should already know this by now smart ppl buy dumb crap smart crap sells dumb ppl

This is the worst I've ever heard about.

capability == intent

treat ur lan like the public internet

every internet enabled device with recording hardware, will use it against

everything u do with and around a compromised device, can and will be used against u in every possible way within capability


why internet verification using biometrics needs to be outright illegal, and/or liability for a leaks as high as 7figures per victim

the best thing about freebsd in 2026, is no goddamn systemd virus

> the best thing about freebsd in 2026, is no goddamn systemd virus

Yup. And with FreeBSD's bhyve you can run VMs. My plan to be, at long last, entirely systemd free again is FreeBSD/bhyve/Linux VM (a distro without systemd)/(podman) containers.

The amazing thing with containers is that, by definition, PID1 ain't systemd and they're minimal: no room for systemd and its tentacles meddling everywhere in a container.

Now I could go all Linux (a systemd-less distro) but sadly IMO the Linux ecosystem is way too cosy with systemd, so I prefer a safer bet with FreeBSD.

I wonder how many of us are beginning to use FreeBSD because of our sheer hate of the poetteringization of the Linux ecosystem?


piracy for many, exists due to the freedoms it provides.

freedom todo format shift, copy, share, preserve, and largely a freedom from surveillance.

noone should be able to see what media u are viewing without ur explicit permission.

everytime u stream or buy, records of ur activity are created, and profiles are shared with brokers.

piracy done right, elimates all capitalism, but especially surveillance capitalism, and top down control over users of media


> Everytime u stream or buy, records of ur activity are created, and profiles are shared with brokers.

Unfortunately this applies even if you pirate. Your own TV you bought with your own money spies on you these days through automatic content recognition.


This article is just bait.

it says ... decades ago, 10%, now 20%, vapes 70%.

this is a bullshit fact.

if older weeds were half as "strong", the user could just smoke 2x as much and become just as high as with newer weeds. So everyone had access to the same highs, some might just need to take an extra hit or two. so its bad faith to say weed is too strong.

heres the kicker, they try to scare u even harder with 70% vapes... oooo 70 is way bigger than 10. But vapes give micro doses, so the user has to suck on the vape all day to get the same high as 10% flower.

This is the same bs arguments the authorities always make againt ending prohibitions...

This aint even ur daddys weed , its waaaay stronger and more dangerous.... so we should continue to treat smokers as criminals.


> if older weeds were half as "strong", the user could just smoke 2x as much and become just as high as with newer weeds

I'm definitely not versed enough in this, but I don't think 9 women can make a baby in one month in this scenario.

> But vapes give micro doses

My vape pen can absolutely incapacitate me from a single hoot, the user is in control of the dosage.
