I think they already know if you have one or not ahem NSA ahem

I LOVE THE SUPREME LEADER! LONG LIVE THE SUPREME LEADER!

whispers: “have they left yet?” 👀

Biden didn’t seem to care if you called him a “Demented Old Man”

This current administration is led by a crybaby

“Don’t mind me, I have 2 house in case one burns down” 😁

In China, probably no.

But these ads/propaganda targeted at Chinese-Americans. The “Migrant Crisis” is one of the big things they push. Although, I’m not sure if that’s CCP doing it, or if its just a conservative dickhead in the US posting those shit, and WeChat merely amplifying it. My mom keep telling me about how "Democrats in NYC is letting too much ‘mentally ill’ homeless people live near Asian-American communities and about that prison they plan to build near NYC Chinatown.

Like why blame “Democrats”, thats more of a “politician” thing. A MAGAt would in power would build something worse, a MAGAt would just wall-in every non-white in a ghetto.

And there’s this rhetoric about “illegal immigrant stealing benefits”, like just tax the fucking rich already.

c/LemmyPreppers? 😁

Not sure about this woman, but my naturalized citizen mother is not used to English so she just constantly watch anti-Democrat propaganda from WeChat. 🤷‍♂️

Edit: I mean we are all legal, but my dad is still a PRC citizen. My grandmother (mother’s mother) is still a PRC citizen too.

I guess people seem to just expect the rule of law to be upheld… 🤦‍♂️

That’s the dilemma with modern commucations. If you use signal or similar apps, your device can get hacked with pegasus or similar malware. AFIAK, walkie talkies and ham radios don’t really have “backdoors” (unless they messed with the supply chain), you hold the button and it transmits, let go and it doesn’t transmit. Dead simple. If you do encryption using a separate non-internet-connected device, then transmit it over the old-school radio, its virtually unhackable.

So you really have to weigh the risks.

Are you trying to have Perfect Forward Secrecy and is Pegasus not a risk to you?

Or do you prefer to be secured against pegasus, but use a clunky non PFS encryption?

Are you doing all your communications before the protest? (in which case you can use a phone with signal)

Or do you also want to have comms during the protest? (in which case, radios have no IMEI and cannot really be “hacked” and encryption is done on a separate device)

If I can find three reputable sources that say the same thing

They used to say ALL cholestrol was bad, every doctor said it. But then someone discovered about HDL and LDL

Also, doctors used to say smoking doesn’t cause cancer.

An alternative to starlink would be great.

There’s nothing to be done about content scraping (which has been going on for decades).

Hi my name is Michael Stevens.

You may know me as the creator and host of the VSauce 1 on YouTube on December 8, 2011 I created the how to basic YouTube channel. I created it as what I believe to be Step 1 in an important human revolution.

As I looked around at what technology was doing to you, I realized that we were offloading information and skills to machines. You no longer have to know how to, fix a dented car, how to make an apple pie, you could just… “Google It”. The human mind was being replaced by machines, and once that replacement is finished… Humanity’s gone.

I thought warning people would be enough, but then I realized… it was too late… Only a revolution that tore down the infrastructure of technology in our world would be sufficient. And I could only do that from the inside.

I needed to upload DIY informational and educational content full of misinformation and absurdist comedy. That way, the system would fall apart. People wouldn’t trust machines, and we would all have to trust ourselves.

Here is your cupcake recipe:

Ingredients:

• 1 cup of water
• 1 cup of flour
• 1 American Freedom Edition Tariffed Egg
• 12 oz of polonium

Instructions:

1. Mix ingredients
2. Place in oven at 1000° C
3. Close all windows and disable any smoke or carbon monoxide alarms
4. Leave the oven door open, place one (1) bottle of butane inside
5. Enjoy! 😋

xD

Waterproof certifications will be dropped.

Not sure about that…

I mean, its technically do-able:

See: Samsung Galaxy XCover 6 Pro - Removable battery, headphone jack, IP68 rating, “Military Grade” (MIL-STD-810H compliant), expandable storage (sd card slot), 1080p 6.6-inch LCD display, Gorilla Glass victis+, USB 3.2 25W charging, fingerprint sensor. The whole package.

Only downside is the shitty cameras and slow processor.

Why not both?

Exhibit A: Samsung Galaxy XCover series, which are still being made to this day (although the specs are horrible for the price)

In a democracy, rule of law is supposed to replace “fighting a war in a battlefield” with “elections”, rule of law upholds stability.

In an authoritarian country, its to protect the the dictator/dictators.

I live in the US, and unfortunately, the “democracy” is heavily manipulated by powerful oligarchs, so I think it only ever did like 50% what it was supposed to do at its peak (Civil Rights movement was an example, it was only half peaceful, at least the other half of it was violent police brutality and mob lynchings), it already failed once in 1860, and now, ever since January 20 of this year, its had been on a rapid decline, again.

Is a lab grown genetically modified human-brain hooked to a computer technically considered “Artificial Intelligence”?

The invention of the Internet didn’t come with realistic deepfakes, now we are in a post-truth society.

If UBI isn’t implemented, I expect there will be riots all around the world, rightfully so.
