Not subtle enough. Some conspiracy theorists think it’s about the Covid vaccine.

Every group that has been targeted by Trump and the incoming regime should be armed to the teeth at this point.

I was on a dating site many years ago. Never got messaged, rarely got responses.

Met someone in real life, set my profile to “in a relationship”. Got like 5 messages within a week.

Definitely a bit of vetting going on

He doesn’t have to be an Einstein-level genius to be an effective oligarch. Turning twitter into what it is was a smart move for him.

Take him seriously as a threat.

Nothing that involves authoritative state of data can be decentralized. Ultimately something is a source of truth. Who decides what the torrent data is? Congratulations, your system is now centralized.

Decentralized systems are anarchist mastubatory fantasy, distributed systems are what runs the world.

This is a neckbeard dream, and it is why activity pub will never take off.

Grandma ain’t running her own instance, but she can swipe her card and get “grandmahotstuff.com” tied to her ATproto DID.

As long as the did is maintained by a neutral org like let’s encrypt, and icann remains functional, it’s a superior model, as those orgs are now tied to the functioning of the internet itself.

Decentralization is is unobtainable. You have to have a source of truth. DNS has shown us the way, everyone else is fucking around.

Gotta have a trusted org to manage identities.

Organized crime worries about legal issues all the time, and their whole purpose is crime.

Limiting liability, and plausible deniability, is a cornerstone of literally getting away with murder.

You can’t manufacture a gun for somebody else unless you’re a registered gun manufacturer. You can only make one for yourself. You can hypothetically sell/give a printed gun to someone if when you made it you didn’t intend on selling or distributing it, however many states require you to transfer that firearm via a dealer.

You would have to give/loan your cancer patient a 3d printer and maybe suggest a URL. They would have to construct the firearm themselves without help.

This shit is disingenuous as fuck.

Moving distros to get a new version of ruby is some amateur shit.

The distro ruby is for distro ruby app packages. It is not really meant for people to build their software against.
