Every “debate” “free speech” group on Facebook eventually devolved to a Nazi hangout and kicked me out for being too left wing. Everything left wing group got sucked.

It’s a shithole unfortunately

Own a musket for home defense, since that’s what the founding fathers intended. Four ruffians break into my house. “What the devil?” As I grab my powdered wig and Kentucky rifle. Blow a golf ball-sized hole through the first man, he’s dead on the spot. Draw my pistol on the second man, miss him entirely because it’s smoothbore and nails the neighbor’s dog. I have to resort to the cannon mounted at the top of the stairs loaded with grapeshot, “Tally ho lads” the grapeshot shreds two men in the blast, the sound and extra shrapnel set off car alarms. Fix bayonet and charge the last terrified rapscallion. He Bleeds out waiting on the police to arrive since triangular bayonet wounds are impossible to stitch up. Just as the founding fathers intended.

It’s crazy because ethenol COULD be just a byproduct from food production. Talking to farmers about a decade ago that what they were aiming for. Basically a step before just tilling it or burning it back into the field if it was misshappen (consumers don’t buy ugly veggies) or worse infested/rotting.

The subsidy structure messed that up apparently. The subsidized crop insurance made it not worth it, plus the ethanol subsidies required dedicated fields.

I 100% would rather see solar over dedicated ethanol fields and all of the water usage and pollution they represent.

Does it require it to be good? Like an audited service working with government databases and some kind of PKI system or is it just heuristics? If it’s the latter, then half ass a local vision model running client side during registration that trys to determine age, and defaults to “sure”. Have the age range the guess falls into (6-12, 13-18, 18-25, 25-999) be random number tables pick a fake number in the guess age range and move on. If a user WANTS to be precise let them. Maybe a test on “adult” questions like what is your favorite brand of toilet paper, what did you last pay for eggs, when cleaning a rug what method do prefer, etc (localized to region maybe just so people unfamiliar with a thing don’t get stressed by these bs questions).

Even better federation if we could have a concept for the federated servers so that they have a concept of what info actually needs passed along (as in above 18) and pass just that info if the user allows. Useful idea for other bits imho anyways. Pick and choose what actor metadata we share, allow servers to share data calculated on metadata without sharing it, etc.

Otherwise as others have said, Tor, i2p, and maybe freenet? The best case is servers in free countries support all three clearweb, tor, and i2p, and local server behind the wire support just the secure one that works in their security environment.

What prevents this? Is it just that you would a need a server that is a bridge on both networks?

“I wonder what sort of pressure would have led to that…”

Religious fundamentalism and authoritarism.

Establishment democracts trying to again to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. What kind of tratoris brainrot do you have to have to on one hand acknowledge a growing faciest federal government and on the other hand fight to disarm the people, worse specifically the people mostly likely targeted by that government, while also kneecapping people and communities rights to repair and create what they want and need themselves.

But surely the platform for “intellectual skin heads” isn’t full of crap /s

Honestly if Breitbart said the sun will rise tommorow I’d be worried that it wouldnt

That would be the second. The first would cover the right to share information about building your own uncensored 3d printer and designs and plans for legal arms.

Just where they are manufactured

I use Fennec (Firefox for mobile) on Android so I can use adblock and sponsor block there. That is a good point tbh

This is going to sound harsh maybe, but how do we break that? That kind of sounds like our current systems favor investment into advertisment over substance

I mean Idk if he uses AI generated art to advertise his free app. If a volunteer wants to make it instead that would be cool, but we are trying to figure how to avoid mass survelice without being subjected to a divide and conquer strategy of atomization, so shrug the concept art generator is low on my list of concerns there.

I mean did he throw slurs or something like that during his crash out that would be a serious red flag for a project to me.

Slay the Princess is an awesome game so I’m definitely excited for another game from the studio.

I do hope their new studio keeps them better supported

Yes, as far as I understand it. No you create a mutisignature wallet first that holds the funds that can be moved around the layer 2 network.

On chain makes more sense for this application to me too

For sure. It was embarrassing at the time but I was young

Layer 2 networks like the lightning network operated in the milliseconds time frame.

I miss when they were just a goofy cult too

To be honest my fake girls friend was just a girl I had a crush on how lived a few cities away. I got busted lmao

Mozillas vision of phone apps was this. It’s one reason PWAs were made and part of why WASM is where it is. One of the largest barriers to adoption against it is that apps allow for tight control from the dev, not just technically, but also from a legal standpoint. For that reason I would rather have PWAs myself, a lot of apps actually suck and are just full of dark patterns.
