If some of the accusations are to be believed, they didn’t just kill and rape little kids. They tortured them. They filmed the rape, torture, and murder of them and delighted in the recordings. They ate their bodies! Yes, really. That’s probably the most plausible explanation for the many very strange references to very wealthy, powerful people making a weirdly big deal out of jerky. And we have that straight from the emails.

These are inhuman people. Monsters even. A perpwalk ought to be the least of the dehumanizing things we do to them, given their crimes. There is no reintegration possible for people like this.

Don’t forget that its the base of OPNSense and pfSense, which are both pretty popular.

Hadn’t heard that. Wikipedia doesn’t mention it. Wouldn’t matter anyway because archangel is a subtype or rank of angel. I suppose technically, he’s a fallen angel.

I wouldn’t say users are stupid to still be using Reddit. There’s still alot more activity there and alot of subs still haven’t switched over yet. But if they start requiring identity verification, I think we’ll see alot more switching. Right now, I do both to get the best of both worlds. If I have to give them my identity, they get cut out.

The good news is that if the fediverse gets an influx of Redditors, maybe we’ll see some of those niches pop up here too. Reddit’s impending identity theft coupled with the insane enforcement of rule 1 they’ve been doing lately is what got me to make my account here.

Religion for Breakfast has a nice video on what Gog and Magog is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wh11CuVUZPY . They’re basically a group originally mentioned in Ezekiel that we don’t have alot of idea who they originally were, but they’ve been this recurring boogeyman through Judaism and Christianity as both groups keep trying to apply the name to whoever they think might be the biggest threat to Israel.

One thing kind of interesting is that not even the Windows WoW64 allows running 16 bit applications. Officially, if you want to run 16 bit applications on 64 bit Windows, you have to get a VM or an emulator.

Once in a while maybe you will feel the urge To break international copyright law By downloading MP3’s from file sharing sites Like Morpheus or Grokster or LimeWire or KaZaA But deep in your heart you know the guilt would drive you mad And the shame would leave a permanent scar 'Cause you start out stealing songs, and then you’re robbing liquor stores And selling crack and running over school kids with your car

So don’t download this song The record store’s where you belong Go and buy the CD like you know that you should Oh don’t download this song

Oh you don’t want to mess with the RIAA They’ll sue you if you burn that CDR It doesn’t matter if you’re a grandma or a seven year old girl They’ll treat you like the evil, hard bitten criminal scum you are

So don’t download this song Don’t go pirating music all day long Go and buy the CD like you know that you should Oh, don’t download this song Don’t take away money from artists just like me How else can I afford another solid gold Humvee? And diamond studded swimming pools, these things don’t grow on trees So all I ask is everybody, please

Don’t download this song (don’t do it, no, no) Even Lars Ulrich knows it’s wrong (you can just ask him) Go and buy the CD like you know that you should (you really should) Oh, don’t download this song

Don’t download this song (Oh please don’t you do it) Or you might wind up in jail like Tommy Chong (remember Tommy) Go and buy the CD (right now) like you know that you should (go out and buy it) Oh don’t download this song

Don’t download this song (no no no no no no) Or you’ll burn in hell before too long (and you’d deserve it) Go and buy the CD (just buy it) like you know that you should (ya cheap bastard) Oh, don’t download this song

I mean we’ve known for awhile that Trump and Satan are a thing, thanks to South Park’s documentary work. And, last I checked, Satan was an angel.

They’re already doing that: https://gizmodo.com/reddit-meta-and-google-voluntarily-gave-dhs-info-of-anti-ice-users-report-says-2000722279

I mean, I got a 3 day ban (R1) for joking that we should shoot robot dogs guarding AI datacenters. It’s literally not one of the categories that is even supposed to apply - it’s neither a person, nor a place, nor some kind of animal. And that was my second account after my first got banned for similar sorts of jokes (yes, some were people, all were obviously jokes). Yeah, they’re going crazy overboard with enforcement on that. Subreddits need to start moving over now.

Yep, go hunting for deals on Craigslist, Marketplace, garage sales, etc and you can get some great stuff for cheap. I don’t think I paid over $100 each (in some cases, alot less) for my treadmill, elliptical, weight machine, stair climber, or recumbent exercise bike.

This movie wasn’t on my radar at all. After seeing Adam Savage talking about the production, I definitely want to see it.

That’s part of why I made my account here. Might as well start getting familiar with the alternative. That and the mods on Reddit are out of control handing out bans for jokes about violence. Like the other day, I joked we should shoot robot dogs and got handed a site wide 3 day ban.

You know, I hope that’s true. And I do think rebuilding is possible. But we need stronger protections to have any hope of actually successfully rebuilding. The far right has seen how effective the Project 2025 playbook has been. We can’t guarantee they won’t win another election. If we don’t build protections, whatever we build they’ll knock down again and go further next time. We also need protections from the wealthy buying our elections - CItizens United needs to go.
