Long thread/15
The folks behind #UblockOrigin are racing to keep up with Google's engineers' countermeasures, and there's a single-serving website called "Is uBlock Origin updated to the last Anti-Adblocker YouTube script?" that will give you a realtime, one-word status update:

One in four web users has an ad-blocker, a stat that @dsearls pithily summarizes as "the biggest boycott in world history":

@TURBORETARD9000 good morning, even if it is afternoon here ^^
Bit sad that flaming dildo festival is rather unrealistic, but it was a great idea!
@freemo This you? You never had a banana for scale in those build your own keyboard posts, did you?

@jeffcliff Heh, i think i said something about "not contributing out of principle" in the past, which might have come out wrong. Finally found the right meme:
Im ICE: "Liebe Fahrgäste, bitte schreien Sie mich nicht an! Ich bin nur der Zugbegleiter. Ich bin nicht die Bahn und verdiene keine Millionen wie der Vorstand!" (@RBrinks) #BahnAnsagen
RT by @MartinSonneborn: Das aserbaidschanische Regime hat vor einem Monat über 100000 Menschen vertrieben, lässt politische Gegner im Gefängnis verrotten und richtet Kriegsgefangene vor laufender Kamera hin.
In Sachsen scheint man davon begeistert zu sein.

If you have a uterus and you live in the UK, it's time to update your threat model to include police testing you for the presence of abortion meds and requesting data from period-tracking apps: https://www.tortoisemedia.com/2023/10/30/british-police-testing-women-for-abortion-drugs/
@awesomejess I am generally disturbed by how many people rally behind flags. I noticed you have a flag too... the only one i can rally behind. Thank you, seeing a peace flag made my day better.
DE: Alles schlimm? Naja...

Die Linke hat mehr Ein- als Austritte, und noch Zeit sich aufzurappeln vor der nächsten Bundestagswahl. Man kann ja hoffen, nachdem die ausländerfeindlichen gehen und neue Leute kommen.
EN: German left party was left by a high profile xenophobic person, earns more members than it looses. Time for a little hope until the next federal votes!
@freemo Did i not find the canary, do you not want to have one or did the thought just never come up?
I think the idea is pretty good.
@SocialistStan@mymastadon.link Hi, i had been holding back a bit lately, as a lot of communication has gotten stressful, especially with the general german support of the state of israel, regardless of its atrocities.
I'd like to remain friendly, as i have a strong hunch that you mean the best, but i would like to be sure.
So generally, there is a lot of rallying behind flags, which i find problematic - flags are symbols, never expressing truely that what the people associated want and need.
Since i abhor killing of civilians, it is important to me that no "side" is overlooked - no innocent civilians should be murdered, no matter their heritage, birth religion or other things they cannot control. I was missing that part a bit, maybe that's ok in a highly emotional environment.
Would you be so kind to comment on the quoted toot and assure me that we actually think alike?
I speak german and english.
Interested in:
- crude jokes
- philosophy
- how people get along
- different viewpoints
- gaming, especially strategy/arpgs
- (java) programming
If i reply but did not favourite your toot: most likely i forgot. I get caught up in talking, i forget.
I generally invite questions. If you look for a clue if it is ok to ask hard questions: this is it. As long as it is in good faith and you want to know wtf i was thinking, go ahead please.
