I think that's exactly the point though right?

Blocking this legislation will be an emphatic statement to that effect.

My point is, it's becoming unethical for public figures and their followers to remain on the platform.

I just can't believe anyone still uses Twitter for any purpose.

At this point remaining active on the platform is more or less unethical.

Jfc Americans. How did any one not know about project 2025?

The rest of the world is watching you elect your new supreme leader eternal and you guys are just sleep walking it through.

I want to put some devices like NVR, modem, router, et cetera in a closet.

I'm having an electrician install a 240v AC power socket in the closet.

I'd like to cut a hole in the top of the closet through to the ceiling cavity for an exhaust fan.

I'm hoping to decommission my home server so I'd like to avoid having to run exhaust fans from a computer / PC power supply.

With all that in mind, I'm looking for one or more devices that will allow me to run two PWM case fans with thermostat from 240v.

Just wondered if any one is using block lists for their docker containers.

IPSum publishes a great list of IPs worth blocking.

The thing is, I know docker networking interacts with iptables in a complex way such that the iptables INPUT chain is ignored.

The docker docs say you can put custom rules in DOCKER-USER chain, but my iptables knowledge isn't great and I think I'm more likely to mess something up than to have any success.

The thing is, I'm sure that this is something loads of other people have encountered, and I'm sure there must be an easier way.

You're absolutely right, and deep down I do agree that the civility with which we treat prisoners is the measure of society. Some countries more than others tend to engage in "revenge based" justice and its just yuck.

I got a bit carried away with my comment because lately my justice boner just keeps getting deferred or held over. It's been a long time.

I know you're being sarcastic, but I just find it so hilarious that while Romania may in fact be corrupt, this small-dick-energy idiot somehow managed to make himself the whipping boy with whom Romania will demonstrate to the world how not corrupt they are.

I will giddily await him having his front teeth extracted in make-me-your-bitch prison.

I've heard this before but it doesn't make much sense to me.

Dying of a stroke in your sleep sounds peaceful.

Being unable to leave your submerged car because your back is broken, watching freezing water coming in, taking that last breath. Sounds fucking terrifying honestly.

I'm genuinely creeped out that someone saying these things can have so much support. Honestly I just want to go home and hide under the bed. A year ago when people said things about Trump like "authoritarian" and "fascist" and whatever else it was kinda true but also some hyperbole. Now it's just plain true.

If anyone could point me to some information or guide about this I'd really appreciate that.

I think the official com.android.gsm and friends need to be uninstalled first. I've tried that with adb, console reports "success", Google Play Services is no longer listed in Settings > Apps.

But... if I try to install MicroG via Fdroid or Droid-ify it goes through the install process, there's no error, but MicroG Core is not shown as "installed". If I try to install the apk with adb it says the currently installed version is newer than the one I'm trying to install?

microg.org seems to just assume you know how to install.

I read something about signature spoofing but I thought that was only for older devices.

Any insights / suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Edit: I think this is the answer: https://xdaforums.com/t/guide-degoogle-any-device-and-install-microg.4058743/

It's the other way around - the side projects were intended to diversify revenue so they're not comprehensive dependent on google for funding. If they're canning them then they haven't been profitable.

Imagine stoning people to death for victimless "crimes" and thinking you're the good guys.

Obligatory: companies should face harsh penalties for this stuff.

rsync.net Warrant Canary

Existing and proposed laws, especially as relate to the US Patriot Act, etc., provide for secret warrants, searches and seizures of data, such as library records.

Some such laws provide for criminal penalties for revealing the warrant, search or seizure, disallowing the disclosure of events that would materially affect the users of a service such as rsync.net.

rsync.net and its principals and employees will in fact comply with such warrants and their provisions for secrecy.

rsync.net will also make available, weekly, a "warrant canary" in the form of a cryptographically signed message containing the following:

  • a declaration that, up to that point, no warrants have been served, nor have any searches or seizures taken place

  • a cut and paste headline from a major news source, establishing date

Special note should be taken if these messages ever cease being updated, or are removed from this page.

The current message is here:

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256

2024-01-08

No warrants have ever been served to rsync.net, or rsync.net principals or employees. No searches or seizures of any kind have ever been performed on rsync.net assets, including:

ALL San Diego locations ALL Denver locations ALL Zurich locations ALL Hong Kong locations ALL Fremont locations

Notes:

This scheme is not infallible. Although signing the declaration makes it impossible for a third party to produce arbitrary declarations, it does not prevent them from using force to coerce rsync.net to produce false declarations. The news clip in the signed message serves to demonstrate that that update could not have been created prior to that date. It shows that a series of these updates were not created in advance and posted on this page.
