Skill issue, just use the Library of Babel

Does midrange being at 8GB mean that entry level will be 4GB? because I know corpos are gonna be corpos.

(I don’t think windows even run at 4GB lmfao)

Edit: Also, this RAM shortage might force people to use Linux 😁

This is ai-tracking is equivalent to having a government agent following you 24/7

You’re not doing anything wrong, so why are you worried the police is trailing your every move? amirite?

Ham radios, meshtastic, randomly drive around¹ and broadcast, then when finished, turn it off, go home and hide all your radios in some secret underground storage area.

¹so its harder to triangulate you

You can still spread info that way.

In countries with low internet access, higher inequality does not lead to higher political instability. In fact, we found that in such relatively unconnected societies, inequality is sometimes associated with greater stability.

This is why PRC needs to control the internet, they have to in order to maintain their one party dictatorship.

So proud to have discovered the fediverse xD

US Public Schools messed with me so much, partially contributed to my depression (amongst various other factors)

Don’t forget to bring your copy of Chairman Trump’s little thin-blue-line book when you leave the house, patriot! Otherwise the little 'murica-guards will get you!

But what if the universe isn’t real, what if I’m just a lab-grown brain attached to a computer? 🤔

Theres a form of poetry called 反诗 that’s basically covertly hiding meaning into poems that criticizes the authorities. In ancient times, scholers would write these poems.

You could also like hide meaning by reading it like acrostically or like diagonally.

Here: (A very amateur freeverse “poem”)

天下如此广佛 (The world such vast)
平安京城广场 (Peaceful Beijing Plaza/Square)
达到门下停歇 (Resting in the Square [the Tianamen Square, that is])
兴旺的大都市 (Prosperous Big Capital City)
满路的游徒看 (The roads filled with tourists sightseeing)
这风吹满地沙 (This wind blowing the sands all over the place)

Read diagonally (the highlighted characters)

You get:

天安门大徒沙 (Tian An Men Da Tu Sha)

Which in Mandarin sounds exactly like

天安门大屠杀 (Tiananmen Massacre)

Voila! Thanks for coming to my TED Talk on “How to hide meaning in poetry” Lesson 101, by a random Chinese-American Nerd (me).

So we are getting that UBI, right? Right?

Pfft, I have 12 firewalls, good luck decrypting these. 🤓

You can already see an example somewhere…:

iPhone, iOS, China, Great Firewall, VPN Apps. (VPN apps can’t be found in China’s version of the Apple App Store) And of course, it’s iOS, it already doesn’t have “sideloading”.

Westerners pay attention, because that’s the future we’re getting. The Splinternet and the end of Freedom.
