They’re not advocating violence, just reporting a fact. (A hammer is a tool, but also a murder weapon) But you do understand the power asymmetry of an unaccountable police force, right? And just how dangerous this is to civil society? There have been multiple accounts of excessive and incorrect deportations by ICE, with no visible effort to attempt to correct those problems. People are now using the meager tools we have left to try to enforce accountability, before there is only one last tool in the toolbox.

Can you prove that people are breaking the law by the mere collection and existence of this data?

How about those Flock ALPR cameras showing up everywhere? Can we be sure the collected data is being used in accordance with the law?

Judge is not suppose to “side with democrats”, or any group or ideology. They’re supposed to only side with the constitution and the written and agreed upon laws.

Now I want to see some gang warfare between the Pawns and the Rooks

I would even go so far as require that vote/confirmation within 24hrs, especially if it’s a real™ emergency.

It’s 2025, we can reach anyone in an instant. And if circumstances require it, (I don’t know, say everything west of the Mississippi goes missing), then make a list of who can check in(similar to the rules of succession for president) when the call goes out, and if they are able to respond.

That went so far over his head, I’m not sure he heard the woosh.

Only a shock to folks who still think Democrat centerists are what’s gonna win the votes

Just another reminder that the Republicans have the power to stop this ride at any time they want.

They just did this to me. How can I tell them they failed this test?

I just recently stood up a self-hosted ttrss myself, the instance I used from just after the death of reader fizzled out due to server moves, and all the feeds there also fizzeled out. I’m thirsty for some myself.

My local Government’s CMS has a bunch of RSS feeds I added, useful to try and stay on top of things. You may be surprised to if you dig into your local town’s web site. UNFORTUNATELY my State Government’s legislature seems to have HAD rss feeds, but the link was removed, and it’s commented out in the HTML source.

You can drink US Government actions raw and unfiltered from the many RSS feeds available at the firehose here: https://www.govinfo.gov/feeds

They should cut to the chase and form The Ministry of Truth, the Ministry of Peace, the Ministry of Love, and the Ministry of Plenty

I have a bunch of ESP32’s that … I can update and replace the firmware on, if i reset it the right way with a usb cable. the web site doesn’t explain it any way how this is any worse than that…?

Seconding fetchmail. It’s configuration is quite elaborate for a whole bunch of situations. I’ve used it in a small office situation to pull email from their legacy ISP’s POP into an internal IMAP server, so they could have multiple clients sharing mailboxes. (And so they couldn’t set weak passwords on an internet-connected system :-/ )

We had killfiles back then. And clients that sorted/threaded conversations the way we wanted. And upstream operators that could often physically visit the offenders to tell them to knock if off. Those were the days …

The URL about:mozilla was always full of fun :)

There is an ongoing attempt to create an equivalence of Trans Persons (and anyone exposing youth to LGBTQ+ ideas in any form, including loving families) to pedophiles through CONSTANT repetition, despite any lack of widespread evidence. There is also a simultaneous attempt to strongly advocate for death penalty for pedophiles. I’m sure you can see where this is heading …

Busy with day to day affairs, gotta pay rent/mortgage/medical bills, gotta feed the family, gotta keep working, can’t take risks, …

It would be amusing if the surviving family did not support this underhanded move, and spoke out about it.

It would be the point of no return for the USA, and the conclusive end to the “Pax Americana” . Invading a peaceful neighbor? Unthinkable for a “so-called” stable country. The rest of the world rally to Canada’s side, there would be an effort to ‘contain’ the further damage we could do. (Mexico would finally pay for that wall :-/ ) We would no longer be trusted, and in that vacuum of power the rest of the countries of the world would be thrown into such a frenzy to fill that power, or to align with who they think could.

Oh, Did Russia withdraw from Ukraine? Why are we ending this punishment? /s
