  • God. Fucking. Dam. It.

    I use too many of their services right now to get everything switched over to something else before trump takes power.

    The swiss better fucking jail this guy if he hands over data to the us government without swiss court approval, per swiss law.

    Now I have to find a new password manager, VPN, and email provider. Open to suggestions, but I want to find services that aren’t hosed in the us or by trump friendly countries/companies, and ideally use open source software and zero access encryption.


  • Hate speech has never really been truely illegal in the US because the right to free speech is so strong, we’ve been fortunate to have social media companies regulate toxic content online in the past, but now it seems that era is coming to an end.

    I didn’t really use my Facebook account but I started the process to “delete it permanently” yesterday anyways, though I doubt it will do much except give me a good excuse to never use messenger or click on a Facebook link.

    I’m just guessing here, but the left image looks both low red and out of focus while the right one in much higher red and much more in focus, so it could be that the little bit of hair on his brow just doesn’t show up well on the CCTV and that’s why it looks like he has more monobrow hair on the right. I’m not dismissing the possibility that he’s a different person completely, but if I go with an Occam’s razor though process, I’m inclined to lean in the direction of it being a visual thing with the camera+lighting+environment difference rather than being a completely different (but similar looking) person with a weapon like the one used in the shooting and a manefesto and the same style of face mask, ect.

    Hold up a minute, you are putting words in my mouth. I’m not even making any claims in my comment about how many Stalin killed or that he acted alone. Only the historically accurate fact that he is responsible for a significant amount of death and suffering, and that statistically it is impossible that everyone persecuted by the (Stalin lead) soviet government was innocent. You can argue numbers and western perception all you want but it is a historical fact that Stalin had the blood of innocent people on his hands, as many world leaders throughout history have had (including most if not all us presidents). Even if your claims are true it still doesn’t invalidate my point.
