Stripe fucking glows in the dark.

> Include the Stripe.js script on each page of your site—it should always be loaded directly from https://js.stripe.com, rather than included in a bundle or hosted yourself.

@stephen I was literally thinking of the same idea but with pirate boxes.

Concept: A bunch of packet radio nodes that sync messages with each other. So you can write a message on one node and it (eventually) gets put on all of them - kind of like a packet BBS except over a much larger range, and distributed

@ryo Literally the last thing I did before graduating was going to library and taking a bunch of hardware books (they were giving old books for free). I got a bunch of books on microprocessors. I just need time to sit down and read them.

@ryo We can't rely on old hardware forever. Hardware eventually deteriorates, including well-built hardware. Eventually, we have to rely on hardware manufacturers like System76, Purism, and Think Penguin.

My biggest fear is that governments might pass laws like the US Infrastructure Bill (which gives the government full remote control of future cars) but for computers, so if that happens, then we have to rely on black market hardware manufacturers.

@ryo According to @beardalaxy, they no longer require it (surprisingly), but I personally still don't trust Twitter.

@ryo I think the ultimate plan for subverting Linux is to make it near impossible to install it directly on hardware and to force everyone to use Windows Subsystems for Linux. I bet most Linux users buy Windows computers and replace the OS and that's slowly becoming impossible. So you will be stuck either buying niche or used hardware if you want to using anything other than Windows or macOS.
