Reply to How about an app? by Newaccount
That's a good idea. Right now we're less than 48 hours from the launch. Since we're running a stock open source platform behind the scenes I want to see how things go over the next month or so before I begin investing in major changes.
I agree that the mobile site isn't the best, and that an app may be a good way to use the site on mobile, but we're just not there yet.
Good idea though.

Reply to Chatbox/ Chatrooms? [Suggestion] by APsychosPath
Good idea. Someone suggested a discord chat but I've never really used discord. Though maybe an IRC server with the same principles of this site? Multi-network integrated with a few pre-determined channels?

Not yet. I honestly don't know much about discord, though I lurk IRC, mainly the I2P network one
I'll look into setting something up though.

Holy hell, good content. Thanks for sharing. A part of me wishes this was broken up into 50 different posts over time to make it easier to discuss but this looks like a one stop shop for all things conspiracy!

I like the idea however, at a glance, it appears no one registered with an email address (well not "no one", but very, very very few) since it's not a required option.
I did make /f/cryptography a front page / featured forum after another member made it and thought about making a "key exchange" or PGP Practice type forum to allow users to practice their encryption skills (which I need to do as well, since it's been mostly just that... practice). You're free to create something like that if you wish, I'll probably make ti a featured forum too.
I know that's not really what you asked but in short: There is no plans to implement that just yet. If this site continues to gain traction I will likely set up a development mirror (with fake populated data, not real user data) for community development of things like that so we can form this community into exactly what we want. But for now, it's been 36 hours and I've received a lot of feature requests that I can't make happen... yet. :)

Reply to comment by rianav_a in How are YOU accessing the website? (clearnet, I2P site, Tor site, yggdrasil?) by Rambler
Hmm, I bet if you post over at /f/i2p you may get some help about the I2P connectivity issue.
Truth be told I just run my I2P router on a VPS. I just forward my localhost ports 4444, 6668, 7657 and 7658 that VPS via a ssh tunnel. Then I just configure my browser as normal.

Reply to How about X-I2P-Location on the rambler.pw site? Also are you doing Tor alt-svc's or Onion-Location? by idk
I'm not equipped to test it right at this moment, but I did add the I2P-LOCATION to the nginx configuration.
add_header Onion-Location http://rambleeeqrhty6s5jgefdfdtc6tfgg4jj6svr4jpgk4wjtg3qshwbaad.onion$request_uri;
add_header I2P-LOCATION http://smv3cryi3n7d5ll7xpvlhstubi5yj4dadeltyrdwdr4onwd2jvvq.b32.i2p$request_uri;
/u/idk can you confirm if it's working on your end? Once ramble.i2p starts showing up in subscription lists I'll change it. (I was only able to access the domain registars on I2P yesterday evening... turns out after a day of trying and failing to get their sites to load all I had to do was restart my router. Sometimes it's the simplest things...)

Finished the first cour of Jojo but never went back. I wasn't as enraptured as a couple of my friends were.
Longest series I've watched was both the FMA series and I'm keeping up to date with boku no hero and Attack on Titan (final season let's go).
If I had to sit down to watch a long series I'd probably start with HxH. It's shorter and supposed to be top tier, but I also have several friends that have completed Naruto and DBZ so it'd be hard to choose between those.
Something something Legend of the Galactic heroes. I haven't seen it, but there it is.

Reply to Why does Tor download images as a "webp" file but the same site on the clearnet the image will download as a "jpg"? by MrBlack
I tried it on this website and the images download as images but on reddit if you're using tor they're downloading as .webp weird!
https://file.org/extension/webp
The WEBP file format was developed by Google, Inc. This is an image file format that aims to provide users with around 34% smaller file sizes for storing digital graphics and images. Google developed the .webp file format to make photo and image sharing on the Web faster, more efficient and easier for users. The data stored in these WEBP files may include digital graphics, vector images, photos and metadata details. This file format allows users to store digital images and photos in lossy or lossless formats. These .webp files can be opened using Adobe Photoshop, which is an image development and photo editing application. Google Chrome can also be used to open and view the graphics stored in these WEBP files.

I've done DMT and still have a lot of it, but haven't had that much of a positive experience with it. It's a lot to handle, especially on the come up, as it's fast af. My last trip was 35mg and i wanted to puke the whole time. Not pleasant. I haven't have any real breakthrough experiences yet. It's not easy, but definitely worth trying. I won't give up on it, because i know what it has to offer. As far as 2-cb goes, sounds like a nice mix of MDMA and LSD without the 12+ hr duration of acid and the hangover/ comedown of MDMA. Excited to try it.

Tulsa Race Riot - On May 31 and June 1, 1921, a white mob started the Tulsa race riot, attacking residents and businesses of the African-American community of Greenwood in Tulsa, Oklahoma, in what is considered one of the worst incidents of racial violence in United States history. The attack, carried out on the ground and by air, destroyed more than 35 blocks of the district, at the time the wealthiest black community in the nation. More than 800 people were admitted to hospitals and more than 6,000 black residents were arrested and detained, many for several days. The Oklahoma Bureau of Vital Statistics officially recorded 39 dead, but the American Red Cross estimated 300, a number supported by historians since then. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tulsa_race_riot

Back in the 1960s, a sugar industry executive wrote fat checks to a group of Harvard researchers so that they’d downplay the links between sugar and heart disease in a prominent medical journal—and the researchers did it, according to historical documents reported in the journal JAMA Internal Medicine. One of those Harvard researchers went on to become the head of nutrition at the United States Department of Agriculture, where he set the stage for the federal government’s current dietary guidelines. All in all, the corrupted researchers and skewed scientific literature successfully helped draw attention away from the health risks of sweets and shift the blame solely to fats—for nearly five decades. The low-fat, high-sugar diets that health experts subsequently encouraged are now seen as a main driver of the current obesity epidemic. http://arstechnica.com/science/2016/09/sugar-industry-bought-off-scientists-skewed-dietary-guidelines-for-decades/

Roscoe H. Hillenkoetter, who was the first Director of the CIA and on the Board of governors for NICAP, said in a letter to Congress: "Behind the scenes, high-ranking Air Force officers are soberly concerned about UFOs. But through official secrecy and ridicule, many citizens are led to believe the unknown flying objects are nonsense. To hide the facts, the Air Force has silenced its personnel." - Full NY Times article: https://imgur.com/a/ljgfJyx Paywalled article: https://www.nytimes.com/1960/02/28/archives/air-forge-order-on-saucers-cited-pamphlet-by-the-inspector-general.html ...

Numerous government agencies secretly take UFOs seriously, and have even spied on UFO organizations and individuals- New York Times, 1979: "Though officials have long denied that they take ‘flying saucers’ seriously, declassified documents now reveal extensive Government concern over the phenomenon... While official interest in U.F.O.'s has long been thought to be strictly the concern of the Air Force, the bulk of whose records has been open to public view for nearly a decade, the recently released papers on U.F.O.'s indicate otherwise. The Departments of the Army, Navy, State and Defense, and the Defense Intelligence Agency, the National Security Agency, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the F.B.I., the C.I.A. and even the Atomic Energy Commission produced U.F.O. records over the years. Many of these agencies still do, and many of their documents remain classified... As the cold war gave rise to the fears of the McCarthy era, official concern over U.F.O.'s even led to the surveillance of several private U.F.O. organizations (as many of their members have long insisted) and to the scrutiny of dozens of individuals suspected of subversive U.F.O. activities. Perhaps most telling of all, the Government documents on U.F.O.'s reveal that despite official denials to the contrary, Federal agencies continue to monitor the phenomenon to this day." https://www.nytimes.com/1979/10/14/archives/ufo-files-the-untold-story.html (http://archive.is/oQhuv)

CIA's plan to use propaganda against American citizens to ridicule the UFO subject and reduce public interest in the phenomenon: "After a closed-door session with a scientific advisory panel chaired by H.P. Robertson from the California Institute of Technology, the C.I.A. issued a secret report recommending a broad educational program for all intelligence agencies, with the aim of “training and debunking.” Training meant more public education on how to identify known objects in the sky. “The use of true cases showing first the ‘mystery’ and then the ‘explanation’ would be forceful,” the report said. Debunking “would be accomplished by mass media such as television, motion pictures, and popular articles.” That plan involved using psychologists, advertising experts, amateur astronomers and even Disney cartoons to create propaganda to reduce public interest. And civilian U.F.O. groups should be “watched,” the report stated, because of their “great influence on mass thinking if widespread sightings should occur.” The Robertson Panel Report was classified until 1975, five years after Blue Book was shut down. But its legacy endures in the aura of ridicule surrounding U.F.O. reports, inhibiting scientific progress... When Blue Book closed in late 1969, the Air Force flatly lied to the American people, issuing a fact sheet claiming that no U.F.O. had ever been a threat to national security; that U.F.O.s did not represent “technological developments or principles beyond the range of present day scientific knowledge”; and that there was no evidence that they were 'extraterrestrial vehicles.'" https://www.nytimes.com/2019/01/15/arts/television/project-blue-book-history-true-story.html (http://archive.is/cHL0s)
-
The Bolender Memo: Declassified document proves the government continued to study the UFO phenomenon after project Blue Book was officially canceled in 1970. Their claim to no longer be interested in UFOs is therefore proven false. The document shows that the government secretly collected and studied any UFO reports that may affect national security. Those reports went into a separate system from the public Blue Book project, and that system continued to exist after Blue Book was canceled. Declassified document: https://www.nicap.org/docs/Bolender_draft.pdf
