Reply to comment by Seidoken in 1 person shot as pro-Trump protesters breach the Capitol building by Rambler
I feel that it will only get crazier. The right is realizing that the police and national guard will follow orders regardless if you have a thin blue line flag or not, haha. Lot of, "But we supported you for 8 months" and "What about your oath!?" screams.
Eight months of protests and riots and destruction of private property and businesses from one side of the political scale and not deaths at the hands of law enforcement. Today a female Air Force Veteran was shot and killed by Capitol Police. Will be interesting to see how things go leading up to the inauguration, especially now that there is a death involved. I'd imagine that if Seattle police had shot and killed a CHAZ/CHOP occupant that ti would have fueled a violent response as a reaction, so, we'll see I guess.
I'm just glad I'm far the fuck away from cities. Today I saw some crazy shit in DC, and then later in Washington state when they stormed the Governor's mansion there.
Had to turn the streams off so I could focus on some work I'm trying to get done but still find myself refreshing some sites for some breaking news.

Multi-party systems ain't better either. There's just even more quarrelling. And backstabbing, since various parties have to work together, but who is working together will change. My country works like that. In the end, there are only two opposing viewpoints, too, but they are spread around a dozen or so parties and half of them will end up participating in the quarrelling. At the end, nothing useful is accomplished, but things get worse every year.
Best approach would be to just split the country apart into components instead of having everyone constantly argue with each other. If you can break it down to two viewpoints, just split the country in two, then everyone can do what they think is best.

This shit is probably going to kill the modern republican party.
Not a bad thing in my opinion. Honestly, anything that pushes people away from the two-party system is a good thing in my book.

If there are other live streams, feel free to share. Regardless of how you feel about this group, we never saw Antifa/BLM take it to this level.

Reply to Predictions for 2021? by Rambler
I believe our freedoms are going to continue to be systematically taken away in the name of “health” and “safety.”
Many of my friends and family seem to think this viral fraud will just disappear, but the elite (whoever you think they are) are not going to waste this crisis. It worked better than they expected and will be the segue into the one world order they so desperately desire.
I put my hope in Christ, so I’m frustrated by what I see coming, but believe a reshuffling of power has to happen to get us to the end of the age.

It's definitely faster now! I was surprised and initially thought it was my I2P router than suddenly decided to speed up..
I'm happy to see that. Glad to see that it's fast on your end as well.

So security cams at a train station aren't an issue because technically no one is forced to use this public facility? Whether someone is forced to attend school or not doesn't change that a school is part of your public life, not of your private life. Teachers and other students will be able to look at you, what difference does it make whether a camera is pointed at you or not?
No one is forced to turn on their own webcam, either. It's just a thing that benefits everyone, so most people do it. Reading peoples faces is very helpful in conversations, just like it is to hear their voice.
The point isn't to have students look at a camera, it's to have the camera look at the student. The benefit is that software can notice when a student stops paying attention. Or discover cheating during tests. Or bullying. Teachers can work with this feedback to improve and students can be reprimanded based on this.
It's not very helpful for other things, but during my time I would have very much appreciated something like this, if it could help in suppressing the students not interested in learning. Those were the biggest obstacles back in elementary school. It is very unfortunate that there are no immediate repercussions for bad students. Pointing a camera at each students face could act first as a deterrent towards bad behaviour and second as evidence for the consequences the student will experience, especially for their parents.

There was facial recognition tech in school? Are all children assumed to be guilty now? Just throw them in jail at birth then.

It's a public institution you are forced to go to.
Because of corona lots of children had classes from home with a camera pointed at their face, anyway
Once again, forced. Forcing people to do one thing and then justifying something else because "obviously they're OK with the latter" is not a very good argument.
Do you think forcing somebody to look at a camera means:
- they will comprehend what's being said
- they will hear what is being
- that they are paying attention
- that the material they are being show is good
?

The reason people are OK with video meetings is due to control over your environment. You can disable you camera. You can spoof it with software.

The operator says that the hackers got customers' name, surname, phone number, email, date and place of birth, nationality, and address. They also have the SIM Integrated Circuit Card Identification Number (ICCID) - a unique number providing the card's country, home network, and identification.
Combined, these details can be used for SIM-swapping attacks that enable hackers to assign a victim's phone number to a SIM card in their possession and thus receive the target's calls and text messages.
Well, that's not good.

Reply to Would you post on a forum that has an embedded element that calls a 3rd party style sheet that's hosted on a forum member's personal site? by Rambler
Don't ublock and umatrix block resources from external sites by default? The whole website might show up as a jumbled mess for me. I always try to keep the number of 3rd party request low and especially if the website isn't important to me, I'd stop using it if it required too many external resources.
Plus, if they're that lax about security, who knows what else is lurking? Wouldn't surprise me if their ssh user and password were admin:passw0rd!
or something.
P.S I'm glad that's not what you were suggesting to use here because then I'd have quit immediately.

A school is a public institution, though, and the classroom isn't somewhere you have privacy in the first place. Because of corona lots of children had classes from home with a camera pointed at their face, anyway, so I don't see a camera pointing at your face during class as a privacy issue.

That sounds like a terrible idea. Everyone should have the right to privacy.

I live barely outside of DC we had a curfew. Its amazing to see grown men and woman of this country have a tempure tantrum just because their guy didnt win. So much so they stormed the capitol building with weapons, killed someone, injured many many police, and put thousands of lives in danger. I have a close friend who's father works in the capitol and he wasnt answering his phone, she was scared half to death. Thankfully he's ok. And hopefully the united states invested enough in privacy infringing technologies to arrest these fuckers.
