@xianc78
of course one should double check stuff all the time. i believe fact checks were invented to have people unlearn this idea. i think i've seen the farmers markets are extremist article too.

the last years have proven to me that i fare much better with randoms from the internet and my own brain than with "news agencies" and other "official" sources :)

@dave "everyone does it" is like saying shit tastes great because billions of flies like it.
doesn't matter if $country was attacked or not if you are bleeding out in a trench.

@Hyolobrika idk, probably all news outlets are owned by nestle or mars now. even different owners wouldn't fuck with each other, why should they.

@dave isn't that like it's been in absolutist monarchies? or - gasp! - fascism?

in deutschland ist die gerechte strafe ein gut bezahlter beratervertrag. 💯

not to suck @p 's dick about this but i legit think its good / noble that he does 'sketchy' things like ignore deletion requests + make blockbots flip out + make everyones dms public because i think ppl generally dont know how much activitypub sucks dick. afaict when he does this its p prominent + public knowledge + now everyone knows in the back of their mind that FSE doesnt honor delete requests so now you know thats a thing thats possible so its not a surprise if someone more malicious is doing that somewhere else

this might just be infosec brain damage for me cuz i just always enjoy a good proof of concept

i just realized that the internet as it exists now is unsustainable. Not sure how i missed the absolute reality of that until now.
the era of the free internet as we have experienced it is over. it ended around 2016. it will now inevitably fracture into a completely centralized corporation/government internet, and a fringe, peoples internet.
the corporation/government net will allow the fringe net to exist as long as it poses no serious threat to their power and dominance. but if anything rises to challenge the central net, and is puts internet freedom back into the hands of the people, it will be attacked and destroyed by the corporate state. it will be labeled as “dangerous” to children, or climate, or “our democracy”, or something like that. maybe “ the terrorists”.
the reality will be, that more crime is happening on the fascist net using coded language and such. but that won’t matter. the attacks against the free net won’t be about protecting anything but corporate/state power.

In fact, it’s already happening.

also thinking it might be smart to start backing up certain software stacks to offline repos. we’ve grown accustomed to just being able to google search an irc daemon or xmpp server, find it, download and install it. the reality is, that could change must faster that anyone expects.
maybe time to do some digi-prepping.

@gert @aral Oh I dunno, GitHub was *proprietary* all along, brazen hypocrisy — we build a front-end and community around FLO software development, and no, of course our software isn't FLO.

tom.preston-werner.com/2011/11 and Tom's anti-GPL screed and other antagonistic ideas were around the whole time.

Anyone who felt "sold out" when MS bought it was delusional to start with.

It's almost like free speech and equal protection are pillars of liberty and a functioning society.
