The no internet doesn’t make sense to me. We’ve already paid for the bandwidth, we’d just not be using it? May be better to advise people to switch to Firefox and install uBlock origin or ditch Whatsapp to hit Meta/Facebook where it really hurts. But I guess that’s not as easy to communicate.
if a society extends tolerance to those who are intolerant, it risks enabling the eventual dominance of intolerance; thereby undermining the very principle of tolerance

The world would be better off if everyone with racist views disappeared today. Let’s not defend those who would not hesitate to oppress us.
They do, but just like anything dealing with security or privacy, there are degrees of inconvenience and “breaking” that are not suited for every situation.
Firefox is a good default, but if you want more privacy, LibreWolf is an option. LibreWolf configures more settings by default to protect your privacy— but these come at a cost. The cost being that more websites are likely to break and/or need “fixing”. Look at the list of features that LibreWolf may break here [0]. This is not a browser for your general family or someone who just wants things to “work”.
Interestingly, LibreWolf disable Google Safe Browsing, which they actually recommend you enable as Firefox has implemented it in a privacy preserving way. The devs disable it by default in LibrewWolf for a semi-technical reason [1]. Without Google Safe Browsing you will not get warned about dangerous sites known for phishing, malware, or unwanted software. Technically inclined people may not want this, but I would never disable this feature for friends/family as that would put them at risk.
Lastly, if your friends/family ran into website that doesn’t work, they will not be troubleshooting the problem or trying to find a workaround. They will uninstall the browser and go running back to Chrome- this is the fine line that Firefox needs to navigate to ensure they protect user privacy, but don’t inconvenience those who don’t have the technical chops or patience.

The only real answer - same as with any other software/code.
fuck anything jack dorsey touches.
Ironically staying home may help more than protesting as it denies Trump the ability to declare martial law due to “riots” — AKA peaceful protests turned violent by police. Basically just wait it out until midterms and hope for the best, assuming voting isn’t completely fucked by then and that people have learned from their mistakes and turn out in droves for the opposite of Trump. But you can’t tell people to stay home, they’re angry, rightfully, and want answers and their families back.
I don’t see this getting any better. Anyone have a more optimistic take?
Now imagine if everyone was armed to the teeth and showed up to protest peacefully. I feel like that’s what it would take to make kidnappers think twice about fucking around.
It would be great if conservatives could read
it’s called Luanti now: https://www.luanti.org/
Don’t forget to install the Mineclonia mod which makes it basically a Minecraft clone https://content.luanti.org/packages/ryvnf/mineclonia/
Serious question: Would a water gun filled with cooking oil aimed directly at their masks force them to take them off due to being unable to breathe? Kinda like getting waterboarded with a thick liquid that won’t easily come off?
how was the stuff in Project 2025 not enough to hit people with fucking conspiracy, racketeering and sedition charges
Genuine question— Conspiracy generally involves an agreement between two or more people to commit an unlawful act. The “unlawful act” being key, what unlawful act is there to charge someone with conspiracy regarding the policy changes in Project 2025?
On the other hand, once the SCOTUS basically made the President king so long as they did it in the interest of the country, Biden should have just put all of them in jail, but that’s beside the point.
This is a tragedy, and unfortunately the general sentiment I’ve seen online from trumpers is that “this is not natural” and “this was an intentional geoengineering attack by the democrats”. MTG has already introduced a bill that:
prohibits the injection, release, or dispersion of chemicals or substances into the atmosphere for the express purpose of altering weather, temperature, climate, or sunlight intensity. It will be a felony offense.
This is the worst timeline.

Yeah this is just manufacturers self rating themselves. This is just like VW cars rating themselves as getting 5-10mpg better than their competitors, when really they were just measuring from the balls.
The up side is if they fail to meet those ratings then are the consumers entitled to some sort of compensation?
Btw, I love how Piefed shows comments from cross-posts. Every client should do it, helps make the fediverse feel bigger and more diverse.

Trump already said he’s going to make the farmers “responsible for these people” — Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8QqdLW8K8Jg&list=RDNS8QqdLW8K8Jg&start_radio=1
He even called the farmers “owners”.
“Sure, Trump said it, but he didn’t mean it” and other such phrases that have already bitten people in the ass.
Not trying to discourage people from doing this, but they likely have caches or rely on CDN’s that wouldn’t really show any impact of any kind. Even if they do, a single day of being “down” is not doing much. For it to be effective people would need to continue this for weeks, and I don’t see anyone caring enough to do that— they’re not even willing to ditch facebook/twitter/whatsapp, we think they’re going to maintain a DDoS attack?
Same issue with uploading encrypted backups to Amazon Drive/Google Drive/OneDrive, etc; there’s already built-in limits that protect them, and at the end of the day you’re just using what you already paid for. If you fill up your storage you have to pay them more to use it. Not a good strategy IMHO. The only real way to hit their wallet is to leave their ecosystem.
