I’m new to the fediverse and still learning how things work here. I apologize if I break the rules or etiquette of communities and instances. Please don’t assume malice or disregard, I’ll try my best to be respectful but there’s like a lot to learn and keep track of.

I like Emacs, GNU, free knowledge (free as in freedom), Lisp/Scheme programming, and software (and hardware, and everything) that is designed for autonomy, licenses aren’t enough. I’m ditching Linux as soon as Hurd becomes viable as a daily driver.

    I already said that, can’t you read? You’re defending violence against real people. It may be just a joke to you but for me it’s my childhood friends, literal children. I get that getting people mad is a sign of victory for people like you, but grow the fuck up, your dishonesty and malice are blatant. Yes, you got me mad by making monstrous remarks about a situation that affects real people, with real and often lethal consequences. If that’s fun to you, that’s your problem. But don’t think for one second I feel embarrassed for getting mad here, I would be embarrassed to be the type of person who doesn’t get mad at this.

    And if those angry cops go to a poor area for payback, why should the privileged kids stop?

    This is what you said. You’re just dishonest. There’s no way you actually believe the very people getting murdered by cops respect them. And here you imply the cops do it because they’re mad at the privileged kids. The people who are the worst victims of police brutality live under enough oppression to have to stay silent for their lives. To imply they “respect” cops is dishonesty, there’s no way you believe that, and you definitely meant the cruelty. I’m really thankful to the privileged kids who use their privilege to speak about it because I only speak about it when I’m anonymous, because I literally fear for my safety. And to answer your question, the privileged kids absolutely shouldn’t stop.

    So you think if the mean privileged kids weren’t bullying the poor little cops they wouldn’t be brutalizing poor people when that’s literally the point of their existence? Pathetic, dishonest, have the life you deserve.







  • But even Taiwan would give 2 possible countries, my guess in this case would be somewhere in the UK cuz they’re already pretty ambiguous on what is a “country”. Say, Northern Ireland could be considered as it’s own country, Ireland or UK. And then USians think the EU is a country, idk but that makes sense as 3 or 4.

    edit: Oh shit I’m fucking stupid, I didn’t realize you were the actual person who commented, my bad, I assumed you were one of us randos trying to figure out the mistery. Ignore me, I’ll leave the comment here so people remember to sleep properly.



  • I can’t even say I have a homelab yet, lol, but two steps toward starting it made me really proud. Not much but honest work.

    First was merely rooting an old redmi 9i, then degoogling it. Like I always wanted to root a phone but I’m too poor to take the risk. Xiaomi was kind enough to enforce planned obsolescense so hard on the software that for the first time in our lives my mom was forced to buy a new phone before the hardware broke, so it was the first time I had access to a truly expendable device since it was already unusable. I’m planning on flashing an abandoned custom rom I found when I have the time, then I’ll just use it for chroot experiments, since the software is no longer supported and it’s probably gonna be an open door at the kernel level. But maybe I can find some service that I could run on an untrusted device, or figure out a way to harden it, idk, I’m honestly very new to this.

    Second was figuring out how to make emacs and org mode usable on my regular phone through a combination of syncthing, tailscale, unexpected keyboard, termux, tmux, and the new android port of emacs (like I can’t get the sharedUserID versions to work on this device, so I just switch between native emacs + termux emacs to make up for each other’s weaknesses). It’s a work in progress but it already made it much easier to do simple habit tracking and note taking on the go without mobile internet. Like I don’t have to worry about things getting out of sync. Again, not much at all, but a huge QoL improvement for me nonetheless.

    The next step is fixing a little thin client I bought for ~30 USD in the current conversion rate. I’m pretty sure I just need to replace the motherboard’s coin battery, that’s what chatgpt told me based on the symptoms. It’s really weak, like 1 GB ram 1 GB flash storage, but it’s a real machine so I plan on trying alpine, seeing what I can run with so little resources, and then maybe trying my own LFS some day, or my own kernel experiments, idk.





  • I hate how people act as if it’s women’s responsibility to deal with this. Most men will be more open to physical affection from women than other men, but that’s because they already see it as inherently sexual. They might be weirded out if I (openly gay, read as a cisgender man) offer them a hug, and they might even get violent, but it’s still a lot safer for me than someone they don’t read as a cisgender man. To act like women should be responsible for teaching men emotional skills is ludicrous. Try that with the wrong guy and now you’re in trouble. Even potential or actual romantic partners should be dealt with on a case by case basis, not as a blanket “women should do X” statement.

    It’s baffling how people will always default to demanding women do something about it, and then someone will bolt in a “and men should also…” comment as an afterthought. I’ve never seen the opposite.

    p.s: I accidentally replied to the wrong comment, deleted it and replied here.
