    Hiring an actual company is way too complex. If they wanted to fake this they would have some intern from Bob Jones University use his personal Gemini account. The fact it hasn’t been tied to some crypto-scam or hawking a collectible geegaw is pretty good evidence the admin isn’t involved.


  • If you pick a FOSS license then your project is FOSS. The number of developers doesn’t matter.

    I moved all my (meager bullshit) personal projects to Codeberg awhile ago. My stuff was already open source, but I did explicitly add some license files I neglected to add before just to make it clear. So far so good.

    Before you archive your Github repos make sure to update them with one last commit explaining that the repo has moved to somewhere else (and potentially why). Once you lock the repo you can’t make changes. If you straight-up delete them then this isn’t an issue.





  • I’ve actually been there. This is hilarious, but the serious side is that their county doesn’t have the money to spend on this kind of shit.

    When people say the USA doesn’t have “real poverty” I always think of the two barefoot kids I saw carrying buckets to the creek. Or the partially collapsed rat’s nest/lean-to “cabin” that I was sure had been abandoned for decades, but then had smoke coming from the chimney in winter. Half the walls were plastic tarp and scrap metal. That’s Adams County.

    The town of Portsmouth is right next door in Scioto County, and it was ground zero for the opioid epidemic in the USA. The first pill mill was right there. Last time I was there on any sheltered stretch of the river you could find addicts living in tents. The librarians carry Narcan.

    But they raid Afroman’s house looking for weed.






  • I was thinking Khorne wasn’t appropriate for the USA because Khorne cares about honorable combat. Then I thought Nurgle because we’re all fat and sick and because of the ivermectin brain-worms shit, but no, Nurgle is actually an avuncular and loving god in his own way. Tzeentch actually plans stuff and thinks ahead.

    I think its a Slaanesh cult. The elites are all pedos, the propaganda is obsessed with genitalia, the populace doesn’t give a shit as long as the treats flow.



  • They exist, they’re just more corporate and centralized, and inundated with basic tech support questions due to the huge install base.

    Like this: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/category/windows

    If you dig deep enough in there you’ll find administrators talking about powershell hacks and devops and group policy and stuff like that. There’s probably people who are “passionate” about Windows, I’d imagine, but since it’s closed source there’s only so much you can do without being literally an employee of MS. The people I’ve met like this are kind of smugly defensive about Windows because they’ve invested so much training and knowledge into its arcana, but it’s not exactly “passion”.



  • If that’s true the sequence of events will be something like:

    • Trump demands the ship be sent immediately because he doesn’t understand what “dry dock” is.
    • Someone in the chain of command who understands how bad that is uses proper channels to politely call for a small delay.
    • That officer is immediately fired. Right-wing media starts rumor they are a trans immigrant when a document from 2012 is found where they listed pronouns.
    • The officer is replaced with a 26-year-old toadie who has a background in podcasting about flat earth.
    • Toadie immediately sends the ship.
    • Ship sustains heavy damage from corrosion because it wasn’t painted yet, or some shit.
    • The hospital ship spends 90 days sitting off-shore in Greenland. During this time it treats a handful of patients who, it later turns out, got paid to be there and aren’t even citizens of Greenland.
    • Ship returns to USA to actually do the refit, where it turns out the damage is now catastrophic.
    • Jared Kushner receives contract to build replacement ship, named “USS TRUMP 12” because we have 11 other USS TRUMPs.
    • The money changes hands.
    • The ship is never built.
    • This is only reported by Common Dreams.

    edit: fuck it, made it more elaborate.




  • Thanks, I plan on doing this when my phone dies. Just some questions:

    A computer with a Chromium-based browser (e.g., Google Chrome, Brave, Microsoft Edge, Vivaldi?). Unfortunately, I must recommend Windows 10/11 here, because then you don’t have to mess around with any drivers; it’s the simplest option.

    This is the first I’ve read this, how much of a pain is it to use Linux instead? I don’t have any Windows computers.

    First of all, we need to make sure that our phone’s software is updated to the latest available version. For this purpose, we go to Settings -> System -> System update. If necessary, we update

    How is this possible if the previous step skipped SIM and Wifi setup? I assume, if there’s updates, to setup Wifi then proceed?

    securing the phone with a fingerprint; I personally am an advocate of this solution…

    Recommend not doing this for users in the USA, as police can compel you to unlock biometric locks. Yes, it’s fucked up, that’s what happens when octogenarian fascists run all three branches of your government.
