"the deep state"? you mean the state?

Read my lips:
An audio show that can only be played in an Apple player on an Apple device is not a podcast.
An audio show that can only be played in Spotify is not a podcast.
Repeat ad nauseam for any other proprietary audio show platforms.
A #podcast is an #RSS feed with enclosures of audio files which are playable across the whole ecosystem of podcast players.
Any reporter who reports on exclusive audio shows and calls them “podcasts” are doing a grave disservice to their audience.

I love how this idea of the "deep state" is based on the assumption that someone was hiding something
I picture someone opening their computer for the first time, finding the notherboard and processor unit and the hard drive and graphics card and all that stuff, and making a big deal out of it, calling it the "deep computer"

Lieve mensen, ik ben er weer. Om 7 uur van mijn bed gelicht door op deur bonzende smerissen die eruit zagen alsof ze een maffiabaas kwamen arresteren. Om een uur 5 vrij, met gebiedsverbod van 3 mnd. voor deel DH rond A12 en foon in beslaggenomen om te proberen erin te komen.

Ben je een boer met een trekker, heb je geen respect voor de leefbaarheid van deze planeet en wel snelwegblokkadeplannen, dan word je onder politiebegeleiding naar de plaats des onheils gebracht. Ben je een klimaatactivist met alleen je eigen lijf om in te zetten ten behoeve van de leefbaarheid van deze planeet en heb je snelwegblokkadeplannen, dan word je door de politie van je bed gelicht en krijg je preventief een gebiedsverbod.

reminder that individualism is a lie. it always has been and it's repurposed to dismantle community building.
no person ever birthed themselves. they did not feed themselves. they did not create their own language. even the idea of individualism is an idea adopted from their peers. they do not build their own houses, grow their own food, build their own vehicles, or drive on roads they built. the idea of the rugged individual is a *fucking lie* and you should call anyone who promotes it a liar.

Benieuwd of ik nou morgenochtend ook een arrestatieteam op de stoep krijg...

Over vier dagen is het zover: dan blokkeren wij met meer dan duizend mensen de A12. Wij eisen een direct einde aan de jaarlijks 17,5 miljard euro fossiele subsidies!
De afgelopen dagen krijgen we veel aanmeldingen, helaas zijn de laatste actietrainingen al voorbij. Actievoeren is niet niks. Daarom sturen we onze rebellen voorbereid op pad. Daarom deze oproep: heb je géén actietraining kunnen volgen en is dit je eerste burgelijk ongehoorzame actie? Sluit je aan bij de supporters demonstratie.

Really am at the point where I want certain people (particularly from some certain sets of demographics, it seems) to stop enforcing their desire that Everything Be Very Serious.
If your anarchism says I can't dream and talk about a potential future while I'm getting shit done because it "scares people off," I don't want anything to do with it.
@bipolaron @maegul @clarfonthey @researchfairy AFAIK there were e-readers before the Kindle (eg. from Sony) but e-paper display technology has definitely come a long way in terms of contrast. Kindle also definitely just uses panels from E-Ink Corporation.
@fmmniell@rage.love (and I would say that if you are planning on self-hosting the e-mail without a provider, you should expect a lot of misery with e-mails not arriving due to spamfilters and such)
@fmmniell@rage.love There's an inbetween option: hosted e-mail providers which let you use your own domain! Migadu, Fastmail, Soverin are some that come to mind.
@scrumm@beige.party Somehow everybody has your information except for the people who should
@soatok@furry.engineer @theresnotime Counterpoint: making HN/Reddit/etc. mad can be a very effective way to convey a message that techbros would otherwise never listen to :p

Here's what I think of when I see (white) liberals/leftists pushing the notion that addressing economics & class issues will drive out prejudice and fascism:
2 of my 3 siblings left our family's working class origins behind when they got solid middle class jobs that employed them until retirement. They lead comfortable lives for much of their adulthood.
And yet, they never stopped being racist assholes. They never let go of their sexism. They never stopped seeing queer people as defective.
@KuJoe So you're never *directly* correcting anyone, but you're definitely steering the conversation in a direction that makes the misunderstanding apparent, in a way that people can gracefully recover from
@KuJoe One approach I've often found to work, is to individually ask each of them "so your point is that _______?", where on the blank goes a very specific phrasing that a) makes the misunderstanding easy to implicitly pick out for the other person, and b) is similar for the "clarification" question to both parties, so that it becomes obvious to both that they're actually very similar points.
