Is ffmpeg really that much of a security concern?

Yes. Video decoders are complex software and ffmpeg has a long history of security patches. If those are the bugs we caught, what's left?

Is this any more dangerous than BitTorrenting anime?

Not really except that tankietube is probably more of a target than random anime pirates. But comrades, if you have a need for decent opsec, don't be sailing the high seas.

This seems more like the sort of thing to run on something you can periodically nuke, and maybe put behind an external firewall that only allows communication with the tankietube servers. Maybe some comrades have spare credit on a cloud provider that would be suited for this.

This is a great idea but unfortunately security is always a concern.

edit: sorry if you got hit with a bunch of notifications, the reply was silently failing and I didn't know what was going on so I retried oops

Just to be clear, I don't think that. I just think "russia as we know it" is a dumb thing to hold onto when we know Russia can be better.

Do you think Russia being way more "reactionary" than it was under the USSR is just natural? That Russians are just born that way? You project that I "don't follow Russian politics" but you bring up "MAGA Republican run America" presumably because of your own narrow perspective, this is curious.

the end of Russia as we know it

pffffff

okay sounds good, ussr 2.0 maybe

c'mon, stop trying to make drama where there isn't, nobody gives a shit about putin on a personal level the way they did with nasrallah, and the death of no one person actually changes much for nations of millions because that's not actually how societies work. y'all, kennedy's brains got blown out on live TV. people talk about it a lot, but did that matter in the end, did that fucking end america? if only!

besides, the act of trying to assassinate putin would break this site apart with nuclear reactions. russia's capable and isn't playing around

tbh I mostly think posting here is a waste of time because you're already my comrades, but I saw you spiralling and wanted to do something about it, and for anyone else reading your thoughts and feeling the same way, because, you don't have to go down this spiral.

so, yes, I did have go through the trouble. and deal with the captcha and the rate limiting. to tell you this.

and it'll be worth it if some comrades realize it's not over, far from it

ain't Abrahamic faiths how we got in this mess?

you don't have to fall into that trap, you can find your own spirituality, and avoid any organisation who tells you they think they know what "God" is while telling you there are a bunch of strings attached to your connection to "God", that mostly seem to involve misogyny for Some Reason thonk-trans

but you're not wrong, that our common enemies will suffer eternally

I made this account to tell you, comrade, they are. No matter what superficial pleasures they give themselves, anyone who cheers on this much civilian death IS suffering inside and will be for eternity.

No matter how much MDMA the zionists take at bullshit like nova they will never not be suffering inside. They are completely empty.

You feel your anger and sadness in this moment because you're not.

We still have something genuine to celebrate. We're still here. We can resist.
