There really is quite nothing as clandestinely dangerous as operating a new set of kitchen knives that are VERY similar in size and shape as the ones you were used to, but not /quite/.
Today's victim is the left index finger, the weapon was the bread knife and with just a little worse luck and a bit more force this really could have been a trip to the emergency room ... anyway ... time to add my left middle finger to the phone's fingerprint sensor database, I guess -

@kaia My mom made me listen to him wheeze out the easter blessing live on the radio yesterday, it sounded bad but I had no idea it was famous-last-words bad -

> [ahistoric nonsense]
That's some impressively idiotic drivel IMHO, but my point was that you literally cannot know or find a definite or even approximate cause-and-effect for these things.
Of course anybody is free to make up a story to try and make sense of it all and/or use as a lore repository for a political project, but nobody should ever actually believe in any of that bullshit, especially not the bullshit of one's own creation. -

Frighteningly plausible Nederlands Duolingo:
[Het] [is] [een] [soep]
[en] [groente] [###] [de] [##] [in] [alsjeblieft] [###] [gelopen] [####] [geen]
[!\/!] The correct answer is:
[!/\!] Het is in de soep gelopen.Meaning: It has gone wrong.

@nerthos @kaia You could just as well construct an opposite narrative where, if left to their own devices, the peoples of Europe will organically incorporate loanwords and phrasing from neighboring countries and cultures, slowly working to overcome the artificial language and political divisions of the continent (autocratically upheld for centuries first by feudal fiefdoms and then by their successors, the modern nation states) and any "purification" efforts are almost always chauvinist theater imposed by political elites. -

@sun @kaia @ageha There's a couple of specialized TOR search engines (all in various states of disrepair and neglect), and it's almost guaranteed that the all actually working search engines for hidden services are developed, maintained and reserved for the exclusive use of feds and spooks.
So any blogger who would like to address that particular audience really should put their site on there. :) -

@sun @kaia @ageha TOR has pretty much finally become the thing that the TOR devs from 10-15 years ago always showed off in the "State of the Onion" talks at various congresses - internet with additional privacy layers, whereas 10-15 years ago, everyone who watched those presentations was like "mate, it's just spooks, pedos and addicts on there, what are you even on about".
The New York Times has an .onion site. Some search engines have an .onion site, too (for example DuckDuckGo, Kagi).
Notably, no mainstream search engine has yet committed to actually crawling and indexing hidden services, that seems to be the last line in the sand between onion-land and full normalization into the rest of the web. -

@sun @kaia @ageha The old world of pedodrug-TOR was basically wiped out in 2021 when TOR-Browser stopped supporting V2 onion services (16 character long address) and all the dipshit perverts/addicts who could barely manage to access this stuff in the first place had all their bookmarks invalidated.
The few remaining big dodgy hidden services were mopped up in a series of big raids, mostly because the service operators believed their own bullshit about TOR+Crypto being untraceable and untouchable, but as it turns out, if the numbers become big enough to get feds from all over the globe to coordinate investigations, they're very much not. -

Noticed today that my electric screwdriver has a manufacturing date printed on its base ... 2008. Still going on the original battery pack (which is so old, it's not even a Li-Ion). -

@sun @raccoon Last time they got mega-pwn'd it was down for a week and they gave away free games and a free month of PS+ as an apology, will be interesting to contrast and compare.
I can't remember what free games I picked though, it's been 14 years. -

@sun @raccoon Hah, it's really been a while, actually it was down for more than 3 weeks (also I haven't been a PS+ subscriber for close to 8 years now and my most recent Sony console is launch PS4 from 2013 ...) -

@lain Hi, my name is Carlo Mid and this is the manuscript for my upcoming book, "The Liberal Manifesto". I'm also working on a more in-depth work called "Everything but Das Kapital". -

There's a very gamer-specific type of brain damage and that's seeing a Japanese game with a completely ridiculous Engrish title and immediately going: "Mmh, could be good!" -
