Don’t make the assumption of thinking all cops are equally evil.

You are right. They are on a spectrum of evil.

Yes, I was referencing that video.

And it’s not even just the homeless who are affect by shit like this. I can’t tell you how many park benches I slept on in my twenties when I lived in Europe and I’d stay out too late and have to chill out somewhere until morning.

In America you can’t take a nap in your car or even read a book in your car without having the cops hassle you.

I wonder what the cops are going to do when all vehicles are driverless.

I’ve been running birdnetpi on a raspberry pi 3 for years. It runs very well on this modest hardware. I also run birdnet-go in a docker container and use my reolink security cameras for the RSTP audio feed to that instance.

There are all sorts of AI/ML models available that can run on smaller hardware. But they are usually very specific and not general purpose, like the LLMs.

Just because you’re Jewish, it does not follow that you can’t be anti-Semitic.

However, just because you criticize Israel, it does not mean you’re anti-Semitic. Global corporate media has been pushing this false idea pretty hard.

Meanwhile, Faaiz Hasan, a national elections coordinator for the Green Party, framed the political debate in terms of class.

Because it really is. The Epstein class engages in all sorts of trickery and manipulation to make the majority fight amongst ourselves in order to distract us from their ongoing and increasing theft of capital and resources. Racism is a great divider and is an excellent way to distract the masses.

We’ve been in a class war for decades and the Epstein class has been winning.

But if you had said that about antifa, you would have been fine.

That was my line in the sand until I was banned for liking a comment and not told which comment it was.

What’s a good way to store dried goods like rice, beans and pasta so you have a substantial supply that you routinely top off, while eating the oldest you have in stock?

Duckweed and algae are much easier to grow and grow a hell of a lot faster. They can also be used to clean your water.

My brother in law is a university professor and told me yesterday that the students he’s getting now can’t even read. He’s contemplating retiring early because of this.

And the kicker, he says that a college education is a waste of money at this point. He says you can learn a lot more on your own with just internet resources and no distractions from the people who are in college now.

I would have never been able to predict this sort of comment from him. It must be really bad.

That sounds more like people blocking you than shadow banning.

niche stuff like sports

If sports is niche then pretty much everything is.

I hope I didn’t come off as complaining about degoog. I’m definitely not. degoog is awesome.

Thanks for the advice about the proxies. I’ll be looking into that as I continue to work on keeping prying eyes off our internet usage. I suspect this will be a never ending struggle for the rest of my life.

It seems that both google and reddit block requests coming from my VPN provider(PIA). I may have to set up my own VPN server using Azure or AWS if things keep going this way.

Thanks for this! I included degoog in my arr stack and it works great! I was surprised by the language support when I pointed my gluetun container to an an Italian exit node. But it’s very well documented and the language environment variable was easy to set. Nice!

Getting this working within minutes of reading this post felt like opening an unexpected present. I love it.

I think they’re retards. I also think a lot of libs are retards. Why does it have to be mutually exclusive?

The former are dangerous and violent while the latter are merely annoying. Pushing a false equivalency like this just gives cover to the people who would happily enslave or kill others.

It’s like saying “murderers and shoplifters are both criminals”.

Shit, just criticizing AIPAC, the IDF or the Likud can get you banned from r/WorldNews.

Getting a sitewide ban is as easy as saying something like “We need more Luigis” with zero context.

I was banned for liking a comment too. And I have no idea which comment.

It’s so weird that the article just assumed everyone would know what a flatpack was. With all the talk of Lego, I assumed it was a Lego-like toy.

It’s not just corruption. Conservatives are violent in their speech and actions. Consider that back when the Iran nuclear deal was being negotiated everyone who objected to the treaty were conservatives. The conservatives of the US, UK, Europe, Iran and Israel. It was the liberals around the globe that were waging peace.

It just so happens that the GOP is so corrupt

It’s no accident.
