that’s you doing exactly the thing told in the ‘reverse centaur’ stage talk?

you good? Russia’s all widows

insane warmongerer clinging to power; never money for wellfare, always money for tax cuts and military spending.

talk of war on an international level “for democracy” is never about anything like democracy.

generals gather in their masses… just like lobbyists round parliaments now.

ask yourself if you want europe to die for NATO or if NATO shall die for europe as russia joins the european union.

the reason russia is being attacked by EU is because USA fears unification of EU+russia.

european wellfare states or warfare states; criticizing USA & understanding states at war or never questioning USA and shaming empathy.

exactly this. i say PIR - Private Information Retrieval

offline everything, no middlehands

condition “the industry” as these are called to change the RND departement - live without dependency on fuckers

yeah okay well your watchparties are increasingly going to get worse until you too hit your threshold: such is the business.

the rest of the world uses a VPN like MullvadVPN and qBittorrent to “digitally back up media we’ve already bought”. without ads, in better quality, without telemetry, without serfdom-subscriptions. you may like AI offloading your decisionmaking, but keep doing it and you will be codependent on authority for choosing anything in life. what do you want in a cozy moment away from work? it frustrates me to read people are too anxioys to begin to do otherwise and accept the way things are. that’s a rant in return

have a nice day, i won’t make this into a chain of replies.

fire ntion attack

seems to me like the impossibility of corporativism is breaching at it’s seams and “AI” is a patching

from what you’re writing

love to see it

learn magic tricks. walk up to someone with an unsuspecting stance but a glimmer in your eye: they either look or ignore.

move your arms gently yet dramatically in large motions to bring attention to your hands being held comfortably at a distance from your chest.

perform the magic trick.

smile.

you are now connected to a conversatinal partner.

idk thats fallacious assumption of knowledge and generalizing i feel uneasy to let go unchecked.

most people talk to are intimidated and confused about mobile operating systems. by your assuredness i assume you use Linux and are cynically pragmatic about “non-tech savvy users who are fucked anyway” /my bias speaking

imho a video of a phone teardown to physically remove front camera & microphones & what else the person don’t feel a want or need for together with the overview that shows the beginning-to-end of the brief process assures people they can take the plunge into governing their own digital tools.

you’re not the state, just a person online, so not aimed at you, but i find others deserving of positive encouragement. leaving the door open and lights on to people wondering if GrapheneOS & a Pixelphone is the silverbullet or if stock android is as good as LineageOS (edit: yes, even on the phone held in their hand right now, or found about to be sold for 20$.)

people keep bringing up buying a new phone for thousands of non-dollar currencies. . .

consider this: pick a trashed phone out of the literal trash and 2nd hands around high-income households, look at ‘teardown’ videos like me, use a screwdriver to unscrew fromtcamera & whichever other component (Bluetooth, GSM, GPS, gyroscope, …) & install LineageOS.

that’s a bit counter-cooperative since search engines spew so much bile and adversatorial articles constitute the majority of the corpus to be found online

almost like me asking a person with experience for verified takes is called wrong, isolating into algorithms none of us have control over is called right

not pointing any offense to your person here. this is a negative cultural trend i keep disdaining - the “just google it, stop asking people” lowkey condescending and sometimes disheartening culture is having negative impact on me and others. is what i kindly mean to enlighten

edit: but thanks for sharing your knowledge of it with a link, i appreciate being able to establish that link & date atleast

whoa cool

do you search PeerTube instances using the curated fedi.video or sepia search or another way?

just watch it shortcircuit into unexpected behaviour when protesters fortnite dance infront of sensors

brainrot in the already poisoned data sets

this is coming to everywhere on earth

they could be us

• StartPage, Mojeek, SearXNG, YaCy
• hyperlink surfing “extranets”, as you would WikiMedia WikiPedia InternetArchive FediVerse posts etc.
• webscrapers like Monolith etc. for offline PIR and just as you say convenience of having it all there

i look forward to reading what you come up with, because i am still kinda at the theoretical stage with keeping such a knowledgebase.

edit: i keep thinking a plaintext document of information is way simpler to deal with than webpages. at what point is information posted online preserved in it’s “original” form? just dumping this FediThread into a plaintext file or a folder of plaintext files with names being ‘hierarchy•postID•username’ or something so it is presented self-organized.

OP is ¤, 1st rank comments are ¤a ¤b ¤c and 2nd rank comments attached to comment ¤a are ¤a-a ¤a-b ¤a-c and 3rd rank comments attached to ¤a-c are ¤a-c-a ¤a-c-b ¤a-c-c so on. this then lists itself in a self-organized way, given all ASCII & unicode characters are provided in order. not just a-Z… because that would limit size of posts to take on.

ofcourse more difficult and complicated solutions like selfhosting webservers and managing ports and databases exist… not that i grasp the necessity for so many services.

fuck yes! corpo infight corpo infight

applause that you move your family off of those exploitative spywares!
