 eat turkey dinner, sit in hot tub, pass out on couch.
10 out of 10. highly recommend. 
 the pendulum swing is coming for woke. if you’ve tolerated it in your projects, now is the time to reconsider that stance. 
 woke tech culture.

sad for Drew DeVault. He has alot of talent. But some choices cant be undone.

 Russia's Ministry of Tech Deveopment has proposed a hard fork of the Linux Kernel after woke tech culture banned kernel developers for being Russian.
Ill just be the one who comments on the elephant in the room, and say I wouldnt be suprised if the Russian kernel takes on developers from BRICS nations, and becomes better.

Brian Lunduke asks the uncomfortable and crazy sounding question…
Is it possible the Internet Archive hacked themselves?

 woke tech culture

The Linux kernel project recently banned several key maintainers because they were Russian.
When other key maintainers protested this, they were also banned. 
 woke tech culture

Mozilla, upon learning 80% of their funding might dry up within a year, held a “Feminist, LGBTQIA+, DeColonial, Climate Justice using AI” conference in an exclusive resort in Zambia. 
 woke tech culture

Andrew Tamazos, long time, prolific contributor to C++ ISO, was banned when questions were raised about his use of the word ‘question’ in his paper, “The undefined behavior question”, referring to sometimes mysterious behavior in C++ code.
It was suggested that he was secretly referring to Carl Marx 1844 essay “The Jewish Question” and he was banned. 
 something about simple oatmeal cooked on a woodstove makes me happy. 🪵 🔥 🥣 
 it’s undeniable, and hard to explain. 
 Tech culture is a larp.

last year, the Linux Foundation spent 2% of its revenue on Linux development. 
 the entire web browser market will look nothing like it does now in 1 year. 
 Like ive said before,
Ive never seen axiom have an accurate take on anything. 
 A group of devs should fork Firefox now, and sit on it until the smoke clears. 
 Firefox has about 9 months of revenue left. 
 Elementary OS released their latest version, and declared themselves to be THE os of Woke, and DEI. 

meh. 🤷 i guess cult members need computers too. 
 so good👍 
 not too many films pull off long periods of silence that well. 
 do you carry your little stool with you to reach the top shelf?

 i just want to post kind1s 🤷 
 all substack had to do to grow their centralized, walled garden, was not censor as much as other walled gardens.

its gross. 
 do you guys also shop at walmart because it’s convenient and inexpensive? 
 Trump is lucky normies don't know he caused all the inflation with his stimmies and ppe loan crap  
 math is racist. 
 stop suggesting having 2 trillion more of something suddenly makes it less valuable. the U.S. dollar isn’t subject to math, and i already told you math is racist. 
 what has been is passing away.  
 damn man. two remarkable women talking about remarkable things 👍 nostr:note1l2470h76d6s267n8gvrsy3ylfllesn7msde38l8an0vvuwneghtqc4p93k 
 i accidentally fell asleep with Rothbard’s Anatomy of the State on repeat.
im in an interesting mood today😂
nobody to argue with at Thanksgiving dinner though, as i would just be preaching to the chior 
 To make it very clear for once and for all:
Chelsea Manning was not convicted of „hacking“.
 ... 
 some who love and protect the corrupt State say, “hacking is not journalism”. 
they have that phrase backward. 
 alright, everything back on the Thanksgiving train!🚂

 if someone told you in 2010 that the $0.06 bitcoins you were playing with would be worth $100k inside of 15 years, you would have held more.
if someone told you 1 sat would be worth X inside of 15 years, you would have Y  
 you know i just realized living up here, i feel like i should have gotten local cranberries by now. tons of them grown over on the coast. 
 the legitimately sad irony of the millennial who cries about the boomer economy, but refuses to hodl. 
 you’re the only other person i have heard who thinks that 😂
they are the same.

for secure group chat between friends, don’t underestimate getting a cheap vps from 1984.is, adding everyones public ssh keys to authorized_keys and just using mail and irc on the server. 
 all kinda of simple fun things you can do on a shared unix machine, using simple tools. 
 up before the sun, and most everyone else, warming food and water on the woodstove. listening to the sound of the stream, and the roosters starting to crow. listening for the still small voice…

 likewise friend. youre like a grounding wire. ❤️ 
 someday, hosting your own group relay will be as easy as hosting your own gitea instance. 🌈

ive never seen you have an accurate take on anything. 
youre either a fed, or a complete idiot. 
 your intentions are good, but i think youre wasting your time. really evaluate the unwarranted, cliche, elitist arrogance in her last statement. 
 i suspect that bluesky will close public access to their firehose pretty soon, and thus move furt... 
 Bluesky will be the Gab of the nutter left. 
 Listened to the Marc Andreesen Rogan podcast. A few things that stood out to me as a Bitconer:

*... 
 cryptographic signing is definitely where we’re headed 
 The ‘Bitconer’ mis-spelling is quite serendipitous, as a cone is a wide circle, reduced down to a single point, which is what this note is. 
 truth be told, im weary of ideological purity maxis. 
you know what im talking about? where someone has to agree with 100% of the maxi ideology to ever do or say anything right.
really, it seems like mental illness normalized by big tech algos. 
 you go ahead. 
 yeah. i mean i agree with you. i hate that stuff. im just feeling a weariness with the general tribal lines thing. im hoping it peaks and goes the other way 
 it is quite noticeable that he avoids saying “bitcoin”. 
 good job drinking your retard juice and belching rando wordsalad.

 i like cgi scriping. one site im working on uses awk to pass markdown to browser requests as html so i never have to write html again. i like simple stuff like that 
 listening to Marc Andreessen explain to Rogan that cryptographically signed events will be the only trustworthy events in the near future.  
 uh oh. sounds line he doesn’t pass the ideological purity test to be able to say anything right. 🤷 
 all new ideas start as heresy 
 i dont think people appreciate how hard it is to get a device which diverges from the big tech paradigm is. @daylightco is doing something larger than just making new e-ink devices. theyre cutting new a path through the jungle that others can follow. 
 im interested in the offgrid applications. power consumption of eink is lower, and with an android base, it means termux should run on it. which means ssh, vi, tmux, rsync, etc. which means with an external keyboard, it can become something much more than a reader. 
 if I could give my younger self one piece of advice, it would be only this:

- go to daily Mass

 this is the kind of personal website i love. its simple and weird. his thoughts on bee keeping, his page on his entirely statically linked linux distribution, and a self signed certificate. the real internet.

 weird comment. 
 understanding how a culture of such stupidity is birthed and grown is something i hope becomes well understood, so it can be prevented in the future.
