I hate Texas’ politics, but as a big boy from the Midwest, I have to give your state respect for it’s food. Good food in large portions, what more could I ask for?

Are you using a vibes-based threat model?

I’m waiting on her to publish her platform before I make any decision. There’s some evidence to suggest she could go either way on Palestine.

I love ABS, I use it for both podcasts and audiobooks.

If the feds connect to the tracker before the file is fully seeded, the IP address of the lone seeder will be exposed. Torrents are good for their resistance to censorship, but they’re bad for privacy.

final hack~

over the past 7 days, we have released a hack every day, from NATO to Israel, we attacked many. we have one more gift for you all, its one minute till midnight so i’ll start the show~

we hacked The Heritage Foundation :3 (holy moly!!!) The Heritage Foundation is a conservative think tank in America, among the most influential public policy organizations. this organization is responsible for leading Project 2025, an authoritarian Christian nationalist plan to reform the United States government.

Project 2025 threatens the rights of abortion healthcare and LGBTQ+ communities in particular. so of course, we won’t stand for that! ^-

we have gained access to The Heritage Foundation’s database, with user data, logs, and other juicy info :D we also accessed 200GB+ of other, mostly useless, files in their server. these useless files wont be leaked.

mew mew i wonder what would happen if we leaked the passwords, email addresses, and full names of every user :3 every US government employee, even the Heritage president Kevin Roberts.

Wolfenstein. BioShock.

Speaking of ruining it for everyone… Paid Plex shares do exactly that for those of us using Plex for friends and family.

Science is that and so much more. Any imbecile can question the curvature of the earth. But if they aren’t actually building a model, formulating a falsifiable hypothesis, testing that hypothesis with a reproducible experiment, and publishing their findings for peer review, then they’re not doing science. That is pseudo-science and you are just a member of a cult.

Fuck off with your antivax bullshit. Don’t you have some new anti science to peddle?

It’s cut off in Voyager for me as well.

Okay, here is what is going on and why people are getting mad. A lot of people are getting sick of the pandering to other cultures that seems way out of place. They just want their games to be games without some political message or propaganda being pushed to them.

When gamers complain about this shit, it’s usually just dog whistling. These same gamers never complain about the political bias inherent in the call of duty franchise. They’re doing the enlightened centrist thing where they pretend to hold a moderate position but are actually deeply reactionary.

This is not the case with this AC game. The person actually exists and Ubisoft loves putting notable historical people in the ACU.

Yeah exactly my point.

Don’t automatically assume malice or racism

Void of logic and reason, I can only assume their position does boil down to malice and racism. Or are you being charitable and assuming ignorance?

My dad introduced me to Napster and Weird Al.

I see, so what is the difference between the two?

I’ve been thinking of OSS and source available as interchangeable. But now it kind of seems to me that free software is interchangeable with open source software. Is it just a matter of branding?

You maybe replied before seeing my edit, but I actually quoted that article in the edit.

Doesn’t FOSS refer to software this is both free and open source? Not a union of free software and open source software? My understanding is that if a piece of software is not both open and free then it is not FOSS.

EDIT:

From the wiki page:

Free and open-source software (FOSS) is software that is available under a license that grants the right to use, modify, and distribute the software, modified or not, to everyone free of charge. The public availability of the source code is, therefore, a necessary but not sufficient condition. FOSS is an inclusive umbrella term for free software and open-source software.

The Dispossessed had been in my backlog for a while now. I really need to get to it.

While it would defeat most if not all audio DRM, this would result in a lossy capture, whether by line-in or Bluetooth.

That scan only scans your hard drive once an hour.

To check rss feeds for new podcast episodes, you need to go to the settings of each podcast and schedule it to scan the podcast feed.
