Not outside Sam. He generally seems to be pretty chill, awesome guy.

because they self-identified as Jewish, Israeli or Zionist.

Two of these things are not like the other. And it’s bullshit to assert being against the latter two is antisemitism. Being against Israel because it’s government is violent genocidal and fascist isn’t antisemitism, it’s being correct and anti Israeli. Likewise being against Zionism is also correct and not antisemitism.

If someone is harassing random people they suspect are Jewish then they are antisemitic bigots. If you tell people you’re Israeli and defend Zionism, you’re only getting the proper response if they attack you.

I don’t disagree that they are pointing out things for their own agenda. But just because someone has an agenda and points something out doesn’t make it false. The fact that they haven’t pointed out nor ever made claims about groups XY and z. Doesn’t mean they lack credibility. They generally been correct when pointing out abuses of the groups they have pointed out. You’re still attacking the messenger and cannot disprove the message.

Why wouldn’t you believe it? That only proves they have bias, not that they’re lying. At worst it’s no better than US, Russian, or Chinese state media. Which many happily accept. If there’s a problem with the message counter the message, not the messenger.

Local antifa it is.

I would much rather it be something people have to opt into. But as long as it’s something they can opt out of it isn’t the most egregious thing.

Yes at this point I’m looking at the hardware trying to decide on what to go with and how to set it up. I would like to have a small open network in my community. Hosting local services Etc. These Technologies stand to greatly democratize large scale networking in war and peacetime.

Yeah, he had some decent videos on halow as well. But he wanted people to pay for his instructions on how to set up the stack. If I’m going to be paying for something on that front I want it to do more than tell me how to set the stack up I want it to do it for me. A donation model would have been much more palatable.

You’re seriously not going to be making much money of any sort on such a niche thing. You’d seriously get a better return on time and effort to put into it by popularizing and supporting it.

Has more direct, violent control of their own people? Sure. Worse than trump and friends? Dunno bout that. Due to trump’s malice and incompetence, he’s getting people killed in the US as well as abroad. Plenty in Cuba are suffering and dying because of him right now. Africa too. They’re both shit and I won’t root for either. I certainly won’t begrudge them killing our soldiers following illegal orders over there invading at least.

OpenWRT. It’s got a slight learning curve. But if you want something guaranteed to do what you want while still being upgradable. It’s the solution for you. You can find pre-made Hardware that will run it. Or my old business waste computers that you can gut and rebuild any way you like to make a beast of a router if you want.

Jolla isn’t in the US at least AFAIK. And outside that I’m not really aware of other similar options available here. I’m looking at maybe getting something I can root and wipe to run linux. But that’s beyond most people’s ability and desire.

More than that. Proper, real, hardware. And a bit more UI polish. The software is inching closer. But hardware wise there’s very little real option. For the time being my existing android devices are going to be demoted to little more than modems for a small Linux portable. I badly want a real good hardware platform to run a mobile linux distro. I have an octo core ARM chromebook tablet running postmarket. It’s a great experience apart from too little RAM. KDE Touch is pretty nice. And sits a bit under 500Mb idle. But the moment Firefox or Chrome launch we’re swapping hard.

There’s no guarantee of that. As long as trump is still alive and in office, worse is almost guaranteed. He and his sycophants have already discussed outright invading Cuba. Cuba isn’t stirring it up. They’re responding to the violence already inflicted.

I am anti authoritarian/authority. I’m against our government and Cuba’s. But of all the problems with Cuba’s government. This is the US’s fault.

Nah, it’s literally similar shit to what the US pulled on my family. Separating children of first nations people, and sending them to Indian schools etc. The ones notorious in the US and Canada for having mass graves. Which to be clear Denmark/Greenland hasn’t been shown to do that sort of thing, yet. But this is how it started.

Committing cultural genocide by separating the families of the savages, unfit to parent and raise children to conform to the society that serves the majority. Fuck trump and my government. But this shit is wrong. However there is hope Denmark might do the right thing. Unlike my country these days.

You do understand, that AI doesn’t need to be run in data centers. Much less water cooled ones right? Don’t make the mistake of thinking that anyone showing an interest in AI is for or defending the broligarchs. In fact I would wager that most of them are just as against them if not more so than even you.

You as a complete novice could download Jan or comfy ui and run both on your PC. I would never use any of them as final output, or ever trust them. But I will say that feeding a list of data into a model in Jan and having it format and annotate it, barring necessary corrections can be useful. Not a replacement for people, but a useful tool.

No one but the oligarchs and their lackey’s want to see it implemented as they are currently implementing it.

Depending on where water is sourced and local geography, water can have extremely different characteristics even town to town. Throughout most of Missouri for instance it’s sourced from the Missouri and Mississippi rivers and generally fine. Down south in Nevada Missouri there’s a high sulfur content in the ground. And the water pulled from it has a STRONG sulfur smell and taste. It’s safe to use and drink. But if you aren’t from the area, a struggle to use. Joplin not very far away has a completely different taste and characteristics to their water.

Generally any place that sources from a river as long as they don’t over chlorinate should be pretty acceptable to most people. The places that source from geologic aquifers or other more stagnant bodies that have a chance to leach larger contents of specific minerals from the ground. Can have distinct taste and smell profiles. Especially well water. It doesn’t matter where US or any other place on Earth will be the same.

I don’t disagree. That’s actually the reason I tend to observe it. I never made accusations against it. But it’s obvious at this point that’s what this is getting made into. And it is my fault after all when I assumed.

A simple mistake. Dub and others have told me that I am mistaken and I’m just going to leave it at that. I was just wondering if it was connected to the drama that was going on over in a thread there in a singular community. They say no. Then no it isn’t.

It was an honest question. It had less to do with YPTB, and more to do with an individual well known to be rather bristly. Even if I do find myself generally agreeing with them otherwise. Someone who themselves has had threads in YTPB about them as well. But your need to make this about attacking YPTB really shows your unfounded conspiratorial mindset. If you have a need to feel persecuted. Tell yourself whatever you need though. It doesn’t bother me one way or the other. And if it’s a separate issue fair enough I will admit that I’m wrong.

Fair enough and rather a common sentiment. I think that’s about the only community there I follow and mostly to observe.
