Well, sometimes you have to commit a crime to protest an even bigger crime - warcrimes like genocide. The UK already is a surveillance police state. If they declare even protesting against genocide a crime, then so be it!

lmao, a norwegian entering the us to get a job? that’s like an american entering the dprk to get work… oh, wait!

Additionally, Pluto has neither a strong gravity nor a magnetic field, nor tidal gravity from a parent planet.

It wouldn’t be able to retain the atmosphere for long.

That, but also better to break up all large companies and eliminate multimillionnaires and billionnaires.

Blocking whatsapp +1

Oh, they plenty do. They just call it school shootings, or “poor cops being harassed by mobs” (when the cops kill any semblance of liberty).

People who enploy hate speech need to have their access to internet revoked, I feel. Though I wonder if that won’t open up all sorts of nasty backdoors…

Bluesky isn’t part of the Fediverse, it uses the AT protocol, not ActivityPub or the likes of it.

A good AI chatbot is recognised by which authoritarian and capitalist governments want to ban it.

A bit flawed. What if the same prompts are used but both models are required to keep their responses equally brief?

This is the concept behind ‘embrace, extend, extinguish’, basically.

‘Openly courting fascism’ is a bit of an understatement, tbh. Elon Musk did a sieg heil and Trump wants to deport minorities. Can’t get clearer than that.

He could get into the forever box in Minecraft.

My cynical perspective is that people will monetise that nanotechnology before long

Russia itself is already fascist. It is currently ethnically purging Crimea, and festers on patriottism and nationalism, with a person cult, a single dominant party, and cronyism.

You could check out Wire, Session, and Threema etc.

Signal and Simplex are also pretty good.
