Thiel himself said 4/6 of the founders were making bombs back in HS.

Oh for sure. My comment was just to say just because it’s closed source doesn’t mean you can’t get some sense of what they’re trying to do behind the scenes with your data.

Closed source doesn’t necessarily hide trackers either. Tracker Control (on Android) will point out tracker libraries and tracker domains closed source apps use. A good DNS blocker will let you know too by the logs.

Because without conscious effort to expand your horizons, your preferences and distastes ossify around what you were exposed to growing up and in young adulthood. However, the world continues to change. Aging also can make adapting harder cognitively.

I was so disgusted setting up Windows the last time I had to do so. The installation process was just upselling/shoving adware. And now every other update bricks your pc.

At the bottom of user skill, you’ve got your aunt who needs a Chrome bootloader. Linux is perfect for them, maybe better than Windows.

My school system had thin clients running CentOS growing up and nobody had issues.

Your fingerprint being one of like five people running TempleOS would deanonymize you lol.

Lebanon would have had to have launched a land reclamation campaign big enough to make the Dutch look like amateurs or made their own Greater Lebanon for the headline to have been in anything other than percentages.

Elon: hails from the OG apartheid state, in his free time boosts racist stereotypes about black people, far right influencers and far right political movements, one of which is literally the remnants of the Nazi party and does the Nazi salute for the whole world to see. This guy: totes not a Nazi

Someone has to ensure they’re using slurs instead of that godawful “cis” word.

Get off that shithole. It’s all Nazis, bots and troll farms anyway.

Yeah but Apartheid Clyde’s AI pumps smog and other pollutants in Memphis which affects its impoverished black residents.

There’s quite a few Discord alternatives. IMO Stoat and especially Fluxer are pretty discord-like. Fluxer is pretty new and still working out kinks. They support (Stoat) or will support (Fluxer) self-hosting and Fluxer will implement (limited) E2EE. I have heard of other alternatives like Root, TeamSpeak, Mumble but cannot speak to them.

Yeah it was pitched to him. We know Lindsey coached Israel on how to sell the war to Trump. But he did ultimately agree to it and he’s the commander-in-chief so its ultimately his responsibility. No other president agreed to this stupidity.

CEOs continue to brown nose him despite his tariffs being bad for business as he at the least will rubber stamp their mergers and other anti-consumer policies.

Nobody is sending their soldiers to die for his impulsive, poorly thought out war. especially after he has spent years antagonizing allies.
