These two photos show my packing area. I operate in two small rooms, containing 4 desks: disassembly area, soldering/hacking area where I work on mainboards, OS installation area (photo with cute osboot logo showing) and table for packing materials.

I run a tight ship.

>@marathon0 yeah, sure, Azov opens fire for liberated areas… It is the same if they commit suicide. I don’t know what part of your body is used to
+analyze information, but it’s totally not brain.
Also, I will point you to another news: Another 1,200 residents evacuated from Mariupol today.
See, you are lied about Azov and people evacuation.
But, I guess, you will not stop to eat shit from russian news site, and you will continue to spread the russian propaganda. I saw your profile, you are
+not first time this doing.
=========================
Hey zen@social.net.ua

The reason 1200 were able to be evacuated is that AZOV/Right Sector, UA, had been removed from that sector by force and the RA kept the peace.
The Azov terrorists weren't in a position to block the civilians anymore in THAT sector.
I'm not on any side per se, I just want the other side to be told, so people can make up their own minds.
This isn't my 1st rodeo, like you said. But I tell you this, any country would not let nuclear weapons and a stated enemy to park right at their borders. No one. Remember the Cuban Missile Crisis. It almost happened then, but for the grace of $diety it didn't happen.

Some people are in denial as to what's happening. Don't believe the western propaganda—Most of it is lies. Remember what happened in Iraq? Why would it be different now? Yours truly was a soldier for 25 years, even spent time at NATO and worked with spooks from 3 letter agencies there. I know the drill.

All I'm doing is showing that there are 2 sides to this war. The west isn't seeing or hearing anything else other than their own propaganda.

I don't know authoritatively, but I suspect it helps Google say they aren't a monopoly if there are other web browsers around. For Mozilla, I imagine this helps keep the lights on. It's not a quid pro quo in my mind.

Hey, so this is super cool.

Google has been collecting call and messaging data about who you talk to or send text messages to for years. There's no opt-out, no notifcation in their TOS they're doing this, and you can't see the results of that collection in Google Takeout.

Targeting every computer with a Russian or Belarusian IP address as a means of protest against the actions of a government is patently absurd and harmful. eff.org/deeplinks/2022/03/anti

Nah they're not worried, if push comes to shove they'll just hack the F-35s! They have got to be one of the largest White Elephants ever! Poor American taxpayer that has to fund this baby of the Military Industrial Complex, for sure!

Torture by Ukranian reguard Authorities on civilians 

@freeschool Not sure what you mean, but I would have let those that wanted to leave, leave. FWIU It's the Right Sector/AZOV that want to keep them in place. Human Shields for propaganda purposes. Any that remained, would be treated like armed combatants by Russian forces.
