@twrling my money was on Redwood City

@dev bruh. Wisconsin is the hardest drinking state — by like an imperial fuckton.

Do not try to drink a Wisconsite under the table. You will die.

@heafnerj what the fuck is a USian? You often refer to ethnicities with slurs?

@Mabande Thats a pretty naïve defense. After all, a n- just means a person of African descent. And g- just means a person of Roma descent. And j- just short for “Japanese”, and that’s cool right? And t- is just a diminutive for “transexual”, so that’s playful right? And on and on…

It’s not a word Americans use to refer to themselves. It’s not a word anyone uses to refer to Americans except in negative contexts.

If you find a word that refers to a group of people, that they don’t use for themselves in that language, a word that’s used almost exclusively in negative context, and by people with negative biases against those people, and when informed that the term is insulting, and they shouldn’t use it, they righteously defend it, you’ve found a slur.

Name any word that matches that criteria and isn’t a slur. I can’t think of a single example, can you?

@LordsofHardwired @MediaActivist probably fine. Don’t buy the hype about anything than encrypted bodies and attachments though

@MediaActivist that’s just because they rip out subject line and rewriting it themselves or something. I doubt whatever trick they’re doing works seemlessly for whatever non tuta recipient, and certainly does not work for any non tuta sender.

Relying on a proprietary hack to open standard is not good opsec.

@MediaActivist well, the headers are sent — and must be sent — in the clear. That’s just how email works.

@waitworry @PallasRiot yeah it’s kind of weird. A speech that someone (I don’t even think him, if I remember correctly) turned into a poem

@tek it’s so weird that it says Sponsored brew.sh but the link goes to brewe.sh

How does that happen?

@jonathanmatthews @tek oh yeah. That’s totally isn’t an abuse vector.

@ComicContext of course the great detective found him

@Sophie now that Keanu has a beard… 🤔

@mark @aram Yes!

@jwildeboer that post needs a lot of work. It was a whole thing on micronations, seasteading (which is now dead, but morphed into an aborted California town to be founded by billionaires (Yes, both have Milton Friedman’s grandson at the center.) https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2024-07-22/silicon-valley-billionaires-put-plans-for-new-california-city-on-hold), the terra nullis along the Sudanese-Egyptian border, Antarctica, the moon, and how sovereignty is basically achieved by making taking it away more hassle than what it’s worth. A balance of terror.

Always remember kiddos. Laws are threats of violence.

@jwildeboer I have a blog post sitting in my drafts for probably 10 years now about the SoM. Such strange thing to remain. Basically medieval tech debt. Kind of like Vatican City, but weirder.

@jwildeboer also, isn’t putting the president elect the person of the year du rigur?

Asking as Time’s Person of The Year 2006

@stilescrisis @oysta @Viss I one tried using an LLM to translate some code from Java to C++, and it literally created an empty function with the comment

// TODO: Implement in C++

10/10 No notes.

This is a trick. Knowing your True Name is how they bind you. This is Witchcraft 101.
