Don’t look too far into android if the browser having a bunch of compatibility exceptions baked in makes you squeamish.

Wouldn’t that make it not an embarrassing way to open the article at all then?

Was there a shooting with a printed firearm recently?

You don’t think the nationwide protests and international reaction to the killing of Michael brown had any effect.

Would you say there was any effect when politicians and police in areas outside furgeson had to make statements in response to the protests in their regions?

Do you think catapulting blm to the national level and international recognition had any effect?

Since you said a local protest means nothing if the issue is international do you think that the various anti war protests throughout Americas 20th and 21st centuries have meant anything?

That’s good Slackware, don’t you waste that Slackware.

When they dropped reiser the lug broke up mostly along Debian or gentoo lines. It was hard to switch to Debian. You just can’t freely disconnect and connect things like in Slackware. You can’t just rpm2tgz some package and see if it works.

You can’t top the level of troubleshooting knowledge gained from using that distro.

About the only thing a Slackware user can’t tell you is how the system got installed. He just hit enter a bunch of times.

Don’t drink and drive.

Always keep a first aid kit with you.

Actually know how to use your first aid kit.

It should be in a drawer or bag with a conspicuous Red Cross on it. If a stranger can’t figure out where the first aid kit is, you fucked up.

Good.

People need to view out of channel software with a hairy eyeball.

Hell, I run Debian all over and it’s absurd that the main repositories don’t do checksums on downloaded packages!

I have to do this on both macOS and windows…

You can turn it off but you probably shouldn’t.

The only thing in the article that has to do with wireless headphones is watching for devices in discoverable mode and using that to physically track movements.

Most (all that I know of, but I’m a be generous here!) Bluetooth headphones have to be made discoverable temporarily and turn it off after they’re paired, so this is more like you could be tracked locally by an array of bt receivers if you’re walking around with the button on your headphones held down.

The other thing in the article that applies to all people with phones or computers or whatever is the relatively old news that cops buy data from data brokers instead of doing investigations.

yes! @TheDude@sh.itjust.works doesn't like grad and defederated from them.

here's why in their own words:

The decision to block the Lemmygrad instance was less a question of censorship, and more an issue of personal conviction. As a volunteer dedicating my personal resources and time to facilitating a space for users to create, discover, and discuss - not just on this instance, but across the Fediverse - I admit that this choice was made alone, selfishly, without the consent or thoroughly considering the collective opinion of the community. With the above said, sh.itjust.works has had the lemmygrad instance blocked from its first day.
