10s of thousands of scum flew from all around the world from their comfy lives to Israel to enjoy participating in an attempt at total destruction of a nation composed in half from children, by starving them, bombing them, shooting them, and burying them alive.

These were not conscripted in any way whatsoever. These 10s of thousands deserve full blame, and fuck them all.


There is a C API. man landlock_add_rule for example.

https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/include/uapi/l...

you can add simple one-line wrappers if you don't like using syscall() function.


Not much. Even the argument that AI is another tool to strip people of power is not that great.

It's possible to use AI chatbots against the system of power, to help detect and point out manipulation, or lack of nuance in arguments, or political texts. To help decipher legalese in contracts, or point out problematic passages in terms of use. To help with interactions with the sate, even non-trivial ones like FOI requests, or disputing information disclosure rejections, etc.

AI tools can be used to help against the systems of power.


Yes, the black box that has been RLHF'd in god knows what way is surely going to help you gain power, and not its owners...


Actually yes. It's not either/or.


Well, you can have a subscription for switching a relay in your car, so that current flows from the battery to some wire, so that your seat heats up.

It's a sign of the times...


That should be criminal.


Plug in a phone, run adb pull /storage/emulated/self/DCIM or wherever that Android garbage OS stores photos these days.

Local, doesn't need encryption since there's no middle in E2E that you need protection against, and simple.

Grandma can setup ~/.zshrc `alias bak=cd ~/phonephotos && adb pull ...` to make it even simpler.


When I'm done teaching grandma shell scripting, I'll let you know


You're way too slow at teaching...


There are many ways to re-verify the user if one forgets a password. Some may even be more secure than sending a e-mail. Simplest is a set of single-use reset codes that could be generated at signup or later on, like the ones to remove 2FA.


RSF are described as anti-islamist on Wikipedia. Is that wrong?


In Microsoft case they provide services for storing and possibly processing (transcribing) calls of millions of people that are under belligerent occupation:

I don't imagine Google and Amazon are any better. I.e. take boatloads of money, while sticking the head into sand and pretend it's not likely used to help the illegal occupation of Palestinians, to persecute and harm them.


My Pinebook Pro with i3wm is really simple to use. You power it on, all it does is it asks for one of the LUKS passwords. If you miss, it will ask again. Then it's on.

You can't do anything wrong with it. There's no UI to fiddle with WiFi. It's all pre-configured to work automatically in the local WLAN (only; outside, all that's needed is to borrow someone's phone to look for the list of wifi nets in the area and type the name of selected network to /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf). But there's rarely any need to go out anyway, so this is almost never an issue.

There are no buttons to click, ANYWHERE. Windows don't have confusing colorful buttons in the header. You open the web browser by pressing Alt + [. It shows up immediately after about 5 seconds of loading time. So the user action <-> feedback loop is rather quick. You close it with Alt + Backspace (like deleting the last character when writing text, simple, everyone's first instinct when you want to revert last action)

The other shortcut that closes the UI picture is Alt + ]. That one opens the terminal window. You can type to the computer there, to tell it what you want. Which is usually poweroff, reboot, reboot -f (as in reboot faster). It's very simple and relatable. You don't click on your grandma to turn it off, after all. You tell it to turn off. Same here.

All in all, Alt + [ opens your day. Alt + ] gives you a way to end it. Closing the lid sometimes even suspends the notebook, so it discharges slightly slowerly in between.

It's glorious. My gf uses it this way and has no issues with it (anymore). I just don't understand why she doesn't want to migrate to Linux on her own notebook. Sad.


As a hobyist (or profesionally) you can also write code without dependencies outside of node itself.
