Trump already left G7 to supposedly “focus on the escalating Israeli-Iran conflict.”
That’s not the reason why he left. He’s leaving early because he tried to hijack the G7 conference with his usual, personal grievance bullshit and to make the entire conference all about HIM, like he always does. But they weren’t having it and they told him to go home and get his f*cking shine box. So now, he’s leaving in a huff because they hurt his childish, rodentine feelings.
Once again. Companies do NOT pay tariffs. They pass on those costs of those tariffs to their customers. YOU are gonna pay that extra 25% not Apple.
Once again, “if buying isn’t owning, then piracy isn’t stealing.”
I’m only letting my latest Brother printer connect to my computer through the USB cable. No Internet connection at all.
Reddit is just a bunch of bots, jerking each other purple. They don’t have any content worth locking.
I also recommend downloading StreetComplete, which lets you contribute to the OpenStreetMaps database.
But AI is the wave of the future! The hot, NEW thing that everyone wants! ** furious jerking off motion **
Banks are not willing to shoot themselves in the ass for Trump. They would fight to the end to hold onto that sweet transaction money.
This. I think the best way to make the Internet less sh*tty is to get away from Google search.
I like the SearX search engine. It gives old-school, relevant search results, not google ranked ones.
It’s also spread out over many separate instances, so you can pick the one that best suits your search needs:

When a writer copies someone else’s work without cites or compensation, it’s called “plagiarism.” But when an AI does it, it’s called “LLM training.”
“The government shouldn’t be complicit in harming students or impeding parents’ ability to decide what their kids see by subsidizing unsupervised access to inappropriate content,”
Like Fox News or OAN.
This. Eventually, some billionaire will buy up BlueSky and make it shitty. It’s much harder for one person to take over a defederated platform, spread out over hundreds of instances in several countries.
The ADL’s job used to be to protect Jewish people from discrimination. Now, it’s pretty obvious they exist to protect the policies of the Israeli government.
So if your government is current engaged in a slaughter, who would rather have on your side in the U.S. government? An apartheid-loving fascist or someone who might actually criticize your actions?
The AI hardware isn’t for us. It’s for Google and Microsoft, so they can steal your computer’s CPU time and hard drive space so they can build their own personal Skynets. (Same thing with CoPilot, which requires 50gigs of your hard drive space. You’re also paying for the privilege of being spied on, which is nice for them, I guess.)

Collect all your evidence into one large archive, upload it somewhere and make it known that if you die of anything other than natural causes, that information will become available to EVERYONE.
Read up on how “dead man’s switches” work. If you don’t send a signal online, log into a particular account on a regular basis, that sends the release signal.
If a million porn sites can make streaming video work, then YouTube is replaceable.
Authoritarian regimes must control the flow of information if they want to continue to exist. Just because they can disconnect themselves from the rest of the world doesn’t mean they’ve "taken down the Internet. "
ICE doesn’t have enough people to intimidate a single blue city, let alone the country. They can’t even operate in Los Angeles without the backup of a small number of National Guard and Marines and they’re doing that illegal action over the governor’s explicit objections.
ICE are a bunch of cowards, doing safe, comfortable hits in suburbs and on people who are complying with the law. (Immigration hearings and workplaces.)
