If you want a revolution well you know We all want to change the world And I'm willing to be your leader Death to america

Lesbians are immune to twink death. Also white people age crazy fast from my perspective. I thought twink death was more of a late thirties thing tbh

I'm between 3b and 3c and nonbinary. Usually I keep the sides and back clipped/faded either to a curly mullet or just curls on top. I haven't done fades as much since I've been out, but I used to always wear what I'd call futbol haircuts. I grow my hair out longer now which gives me more options for femme and andro presentation. I'll post some of my inspiration pictures somewhere to share later.

delta.chat has some concept of e2ee mailing lists, but i'm not positive on the details. technically PGP based (though rewritten in rust), but the app doesn't expose many of the crypto details to the end user. sadly that does mean it inherits some of the weaknesses of PGP like a lack of forward secrecy. OMEMO, Signal, and Matrix all use some variant of a double-ratchet algo. I'd like to see something like this make its way into async/store-and-forward messaging, but idk if there's some reason why it hasn't.

the delta chat app is currently pretty chat-centric, but its based on email so it could be modified to fit better with long form discussions.

As long as there are white people, we have to keep having this talk. At some point they'll realize that white is a caste and hopefully give it up.

I don't think capital can sustain projects of this magnitude. Space is too harsh of an environment for delulu. We can hardly grapple with the idea that our actions on earth have consequences because of our condition. I like space stuff and I even like to create designs of starships, but I don't think we're in a position to reach for the stars just yet. Even if I'm wrong, we can't allow space fascism get started either. There is probably life out there and if space capitalism finds them, they'll try to pull another indigenous genocide and invent new forms of xenophobia to justify it.

None of our problems are technological. We have massive people problems. Building a new billions of dollar machine or trillions of dollar space station isn't going to disrupt the imperial core. The Gray Techno Fash won't suddenly become humanists because space.

Space life can be fun to think about, but techno futurism is a liberal fetish and tends to result in liberal fantasies if you don't decolonize your mind.

as a teen I would tell my dad that I was morally obligated to break the law if the law was wrong, but I did get in trouble whenever we got DMCA notices so I had to get smart about it or risk getting grounded.

if i had to guess, i would say they needed to find a new arms dealer.

the branded controller was cool tho

Thanks the gods that literacy isn't a prerequisite to defeating fascism.

WISPs use a lot of infra mesh tech and they're also really great for low-cost network deployments in rural areas too since you don't need to dig long trenches. Just point a couple of high-gain yagis at each other every 30km or so and you're good.

The main problem with MANets is 1. TCP is incompatible with variably high latency and partial connectivity and 2. there's no IP routing algorithm that handles variable topologies well. so you end up burning the majority of the already limited wireless bandwidth on tracking routing tree changes and not on data transmission. Density is only really an issue because of problem 1. ICNs handle the latency issue more gracefully, but without a solid solution for 2 it doesn't matter lol.

That and nobody actually knows how to make mobile adhoc mesh networks beyond toy demos. I think NDN is probably the furthest along based on my reading between the lines of some routing algo papers coming from UCLA (read: .mil applications). I'm personally trying to make micro clouds (or mist computing if I'm being cheeky) a little easier and continuing research into MANets because I think its a really interesting problem that there's very little incentive to solve since the profit potential is tiny. I think a lot of this is applicable for making websites that can't be deleted, but like you say, the social organization comes first. Without the will to maintain the systems, no amount of tools will make a difference.

The infra meshes in berlin and elsewhere are basically volunteer-based wireless ISPs and can't be run without people willing to put in the work. They also aren't that much more resilient to disruption than a typical corporate WISP like starry or whatever, its just theoretically possible to have a community owned/operated setup because the infra is relatively cheap. No Se Vende Mesh is a project that was already happening in LA when I got here and I'm trying to be supportive. Some of the volunteers are struggling with motivation though because, well, its LA and organizing is hard.
