14·11 months agoPre-WW2 use of the swastika: all good.
Post-WW2 use of the swastika, specifically in the context of this discussion (for armed service members in the western world): very, very not good.
He looks like a horizontally-compressed Mussolini.
12·11 months agoMost of the career Defence personnel in the Pentagon with spines have already been forced out through purges.
The remaining staff are loyal to Trump, or likely have made clear they’ll not risk their jobs raising any concerns or objections.
I don’t think most of the US realises how fucked they are under Trump 2. This is barely 10 months in of a four year term.
What you have there is your basic human empathy, untainted by religious or cultural indoctrination.
Keep hold of that we need more of it.
Every Catfriend build since v2 has been reproducable. Most apps on F-Droid are and they are encouraging it for all devs, to build trust.

Update from Simon aka imsodin, Syncthing Maintainer
tl;dr for android users: No need to switch apps at this time, the current install continues to work and is safe. If you can disable app auto-updates, please do that for now to be on the safe side.
Good news: Had a good chat with @nel0x. He is a collaborator on researchxxl’s repo and just marked those releases as “pre-release”, which prevents the obtainium auto-upgrades. So we are back to no immediate risk for users and we can take it slowly, trying to establish communication and more context. It’s still possible and imo likely that nothing nefarious is going on, just a very suboptimal handover that needs clearing up. There’s no need to go dig for repos on github, the technicalities of continuing to publish an app are not an issue - the open/relevant points are about a possible direct continuation of the existing app (or not), the time/effort that needs to be volunteered to publish an app and the trust in whoever does that. Hopefully we can work something out. If you are interested in helping maintain the app, let us know, other than that imo nothing to do here except if you are a user, to do the above in the tl;dr and every now and then check-in on the status (now and then being more like every week than every hour 😉 ).
Sounds like a really good reason not to use Obtainium, if any repo you have tracked for updates can just redirect you to a completely different repo If they have the keys - and throw no complaints when updating to an entirely different apk.
With F-Droid they at least have to have the same signing keys, and the code is built by F-droid from source - meaning the code for the supplied APK always matches the code on the repository for the build. Whereas Obtainium will just offer you any APK the dev releases on their GitHub/Gitlab/etc, this places much higher trust on the dev.
Edit:
my bad, I wrote earlier that all F-droid builds are reproducable. But that’s not accurate F-droid does not enforce that all builds must be reproducible. They have been helping devs with the tools and assistance to do so since 2015, and all the apps that I use I’d checked in the past and are all using reproducable builds, so I wrongly presumed it was mandatory now. Eg, Syncthing-Fork from Catfriend has had all builds reproducible since v2: https://verification.f-droid.org/packages/com.github.catfriend1.syncthingfork/
Ephebophilia covers 15 to 19, you will not find 15-17 year olds in any legal porn. And yeah anyone 30+ who’s primary sexual preference is 15-19yos (which is what ephebophilia is) is at best a predatory loser if they act on it, and likely a statutory rapist.
Interesting thing to choose to downplay. You Republican?
Are we really entering the story arc of the US downfall where mainstream Republicans start saying, “actually I think ephebophilia and hemephilia are ok, it’s in the bible”, just like many of their further-right counterparts already do?
JFC America.
Or from state charges. Which are already substantial.
Don’t forget that opposite the huge stack of document boxes was possibly a photocopy machine.

“World’s dumbest social media platform gets dumber”.
Its not a binary choice though, given there are millions of partner options out there for a 28yo lady. Its not just option a) 46 year old man, option b) stay at crappy home situation. Both situations can be crap at once, sounds like she just went from one power imbalance to another.
The bravest boy doing more tough confident things… Like lying about an expansion of the Whitehouse so he can secretly fortify his bunker.
He’s shit-scared of the end of his presidency occurring as depicted in the final 10 minutes of Civil War (2024).
Keep up the protests and escalate to a general strike, USA citizens. The rest of the world is cheering you on.
She is the White House Press Secretary. She is literally the primary interface between the Whitehouse and the press, and you’re arguing the press should not ask her questions and report on her statements?
This blaming the journalists for reporting what the White House Press Secretary says is really backwards.
Dude what. Last presidency he got scared during the anti-abortion law protests of May 2019 and installed new fencing around the Whitehouse that are roughly twice as high.

Then he had additional fencing and concrete barriers installed around the already huge fences during the BLM/George Floyd protests, and when one of those fences was partially pushed down (still leaving a 14 foot fence protecting the Whitehouse), he ran off and hid in a bunker.
Then he spent the next weeks telling everyone he’s very brave and did not go to a bunker. While Whitehouse leakers confirmed he did.

He’s repeatedly shown he’s a scared little piss-baby, especially of protesters.
They have, but you can’t expect journalists to not ask the administration questions. It is literally their job.
If there’s blowback, blame the people causing the problem (elected Republicans), not the workers impacted by it.
Strikes and not showing up for unpaid work are meant to piss people off. People don’t change shit when they’re getting what they want already.
Article author doesn’t actually elaborate on what they mean precisely by “cut them loose” but from context it seems to be cut off all their federal funding.
Not even sure how you’d do that to be honest - even Trump’s admin has struggled to legally withhold federal funds from states he hates, the funding gets pushed through in the end by legal action. So you wanna out-crime Trump? Dumb article.
If the author wants to make bold demands then along with that comes the requirement of suggesting how to achieve them, else it’s just performative whining.
