This case is particularly noteworthy because it involves a series of requests across different jurisdictions and companies, highlighting the complex interplay between technology firms, user privacy, and law enforcement. The requests were made under the guise of anti-terrorism laws, despite the primary activities of the Democratic Tsunami involving protests and roadblocks, which raises questions about the proportionality and justification of such measures.🤔

fascinating! That's probably a good thing because using client styling keeps things consistent!

Done! https://gabe.rocks/rss

Followed an Andrew Price tutorial on holograms, kinda neat. There's just so much that can be done with geometry nodes...

Experimenting with randomness in blender geometry nodes.
Can't quite figure out how to make each point a separate object yet, but pretty neat all the same.

Only a bit of shade

I wonder if zoomers are too young to remember them, but a really cool feature for #PeerTube would be video replies like old YouTube used to have.

I would say it exemplifies the fact that he was suffering from the very doom porn he criticizes. Being aware doesn't make one immune.

It's tragic that he did this, and ultimately it undermines his point that we're not powerless and there's a lot we can do to change things.
That doesn't necessarily mean that every action is a good one, and clearly this isn't a good example of one.
To make things worse, I think this stunt undermines what appears to be a lot of decent research, that can now be even easier to dismiss as wholesale insanity.

Is the fight over CBDC merely a distraction for the #WarOnCash?
Catherine Austin Fitts recommends a triple win of supporting local, protecting privacy, and reducing costs for ordinary people: repeal sales taxes on cash transactions bellow $500.

I am concerned the big picture plan (haven't seen he futo talk yet) is to basically try to regulate away small players entirely.
Adding liability is a way to do it, but it sounds nice when people think of stopping big tech from censoring them, which is a fool's errand.

I'm assuming @Hyolobrika@social.fbxl.net was thinking more in terms of large services that most people are expected to be able to interact with one way or another (like github or Wikipedia).

@silverpill@mitra.social Great work! I love mitra already!
I like how the front-end is setup so I can just do css overrides for colors and what not. Excited to dive deeper as time goes on!

Taking advice from people who believe that there are too many people on the planet seems like overall a bad idea.

@adiz@soc0.outrnat.nl how many missiles does that buy?

Canadian media & govt personalities are launching an "I deserve better" campaign in response to the hate they receive from the public.
It kinda comes off as "you can't talk to us like this" in an environment where they regularly talk down to the public about anything and everything.
People in all kinds of positions of authority seem to forget that respect is a two-way street.

@silverpill@mitra.social Sorry, not network market. https://tree.market/ they're crowfunding a "p2p marketplace" on top of dero.
