@realcaseyrollins @lostgen @mullvadnet I respect anyone's right to boycott and product/service for political reasons, but these people who go out of their way to make sure not a single penny goes to any cause that is even remotely right-wing are trying way too hard. Eventually, they are going to realize that it's not really possible unless you go completely off-grid.

Another day, another instance of tech company/organization/individual supporting <political party/cause that is not far-left>, we need to cancel them.

Mullvad is a political company fighting for free speech, free information and privacy, with two equal co-founders, co-owners and co-CEOs who fundamentally disagree on many issues. Daniel's donation to a political party is private and not part of Mullvad's mission. We protect the right to express and access views we disagree with. We welcome anyone sharing these core values, whatever their other opinions. We are happy to refund others who don't, where we can.

@djsumdog @Svantovit @The_Vampire_Brigade @protos And they keep on pushing Ivermectin as a cure for cancer and even homosexuality. I'm sure it's a psyop to benefit some company.

Does anyone know of any multi-purpose microblogging clients? Like something that supports a wide array of microblogging services and APIs. It would be really nice to manage all of your accounts from multiple networks/services in one place and maybe be able to make a post and have it instantly appear on your Twitter, Mastodon, Nostr, BlueSky, Gab, Minds, etc at once.

fellas which 2 more weeks event will happen first?

@beardalaxy I think there is no "right" way to play the game the first time, as long as you are not cheating.

Ship of Harkinian adds so many enhancements and QoL features that there is simply no going back for me. It kind of reminds me of the XBLA port of Perfect Dark. It's literally the exact same game, just enhanced. Though you can still tell that it was originally an N64 game just by how stiff the high-poly models move around in a 90s physics engine, but I feel like it gives it a little charm, almost like a budget Xbox 360 game.

Prominent US war hawk John Bolton has pled guilty to violating the Espionage Act after previously demanding execution for whistleblowers Edward Snowden & Chelsea Manning and 176 years in prison for publisher Julian Assange.

As part of a plea agreement, Bolton admitted to unlawfully retaining sensitive national security information. He now faces up to 5 years in prison, up to 3 years of supervised release, a $2.25 million fine, forfeiture of his pension, and is due to be sentenced on 28 October.

In 1996, Nintendo was seemingly very fond of a single particular stock photo of the sky, so that it ended up on the cartridge artwork of three different games released in that year: Super Mario 64, Mario Kart 64, and Pilotwings 64.

@ChristiJunior @teto The Valve/GabeN complex is not a good guy, but it's necessary to keep Microsoft in line otherwise it would have killed gaming on Winblows first, then forced a Windows-only policy to motherboard manufacturers later (SecureBoot lockdown, basically)

With its approach, Valve creates an hardware market for consumer-grade PC equipment that is not expected to rely on Windows, and that can ease the mind of normies to the concept there's more to PCs than Windows

@beardalaxy You can add a bunch of enhancements. You can easily make it look like an early Xbox 360 game with the right mods.

@beardalaxy I'm playing it right now. This is the PC port using the models from the 3DS game.

2008 was an inflection point for EVERYTHING.
All of the gender bullshit emerged post-08
All of the DEI, ESG, shit

It was a mode-switch same as 1971: https://wtfhappenedin1971.com/

The right is people pretending they're not weak.
The left is people pretending they're not heartless.

It was ALWAYS a tax. The fact that the age for eligibility was set higher than the average age of death in the 40s when social security became a thing is proof that it was just a cash grab by a crippled communist.

"Age verification" should be called by its real name: ID verification—a new form of mass surveillance.

Parents already have effective tools to protect their children online: parental controls, screen time limits, or no device at all.

More surveillance won’t fix social media’s harms. Instead, let’s hold big tech accountable for the toxic algorithms fueling addiction, manipulation, outrage, and polarization.
