The lack of local coop was also a huge downside for me back in the day.

1. Not a node, but a proxy. Entry node's IPs in Tor are publicly known, so they are easy to censor. With Snowflake you create a proxy (bridge) between a censored user and an entry node, and since your IP is not listed as a node, you help the user bypass the censorship.

2. In theory, nope. But if the user is doing something bad, a prosecutor could argue you helped them to do so. I don't know about any case like this involving Snowflake, and I am not a lawyer. You could be a target if you were to host material, which is not the case with Snowflake.

In case it helps, I've been running the extension with no trouble that I'm aware of for a few years.

We don't know if π+e is irrational.

In a programming class, one of my professors sometimes remolety opened the xeyes program (Linux program that opens a pair of eyes that follow your cursor) on students that were not paying a lot of attention.

Don't use blurry text if you want to censor it, as it can be unblurred. Just use a solid color box.

Oh, you can interpretate anti-matter as either matter that has negative energy and travels forward in time, or matter with positive energy that travels backwards in time, and both interpretation are valid under Dirac's equation.

It has always been. FOSS is by itself political, just beyond the basic binary logic of left/right.

Your apoliticism is a political instance as well. Take for instance this quoute from Desmond Tutu "If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor."

I'm not saying you have to ditch Proton over their CEO's takes, my point is that thinking that everything suddenly became political is naive.

Nintendo's GameCube. It's cubical. Cubical!

He was being chased by the US government, and Assange proved that being in an US allied country will still get your arrested/tortured. What other options did Snowden had other than escaping to Russia?

IMO don't hate the player, hate the game.

I was very close to either dying or having permanent brain damage due to a stun grenade in a protest in my country. While being a completely unarmed, non-violent and basically running away/hiding protestor.

I was with a friend and a bunch of people outside our campus. Everything was peaceful and then, out of nowhere things got bad, with stun grenades and tear gas everywhere. We were used to it, but that time the tear gas was so bad that the neutralizer we brought was doing nothing. We took cover with a wall (bad idea, but we were panicking badly), and I wasn't able to breath, so I wanted us to run away from there. I told my friend to let's just run certain way, and I was so full of adrenaline and ready to run, but he stopped me. 1 second later, a stun grenade fell from the sky just 1 m away of us, in the direction I wanted us to run; no doubt it would have hit me in the head.

After that I just took his hand and we ran away, not able to see nor breath. Me holding his hand was a huge saver for both of us, as we could, more or less, guide each other. We ran some 20-30 m and just fell to the ground, but in a somewhat safe place. We crawled some 10 m more and just rest there. It took us some solid 15 minutes to catch our breath. Never said a word to my family about the whole incident.

Fun times.
