Reply to A 23-Year-Old Coder Kept QAnon Online When No One Else Would by Rambler

“Once you get to the point where you look at whether content is safe or unsafe, as soon as you do that, you’ve opened a can of worms.” At best, his apolitical framing comes across as naive; at worst, as preposterous gaslighting.

So you're telling me that neither of the two authors nor their editor know what gaslighting means? Preposterous.

Lim sees the rising concerns around high-tech censorship as a business opportunity.

How embarrassing for Bloomberg to characterize shocks of supplies of reliable hosting as a he-said quote, instead of the market opportunity itself. It's almost like the authors hate the idea of supply and demand itself.

Basically it's a psyop made by the bad guys. It goes like this:

  1. The world is made mostly of good people.
  2. Among those there is small group of very bad child murdering psychopath satan worshipers.
  3. Among those very bad people there is a small group of good people, they will fight the psychopaths from within.
  4. But only if you do nothing and wait quietly.

It works because half of it is true (1-2), and sheeple intuitively know that, but it's too scary to live in the world with psychopaths and no mummy who will protect from them. https://off-guardian.org/2021/03/12/on-the-psychology-of-the-conspiracy-denier/

Setting preferences doesn't work on the onion site, apparently because the server always tries to set the cookie domain to its clearnet hostname.

Set-Cookie: PREFS=*snip*; domain=tube.incognet.io; path=/; expires=Thu, 20 Apr 2023 02:30:45 GMT; Secure; HttpOnly

Any chances you could look into this? Thanks in advance!

Reply to What service would you like to see on I2P network? by XANA

Something that would make me hop onto i2p every day

  • news aggregator
  • a weather site with forecasts etc.
  • something similar to archive.org (there's eanlib i guess, but it's still nowwhere near that)
  • online cookbook (maybe a mirror of based.cooking?) etc.

Just some ordinary sites, but with no ads, granted anonymity and a nice web 2.0 design that is prevalent around here, i would choose it over the clearnet alternatives in a heartbeat

Also thanks to whoever made query.i2p, if that didn't happen it would also end up on this list

No, it’s an argument he stole from white men the 1860s who found Ceres, called it a new planet, but then subsequently found Vesta, Pallas, and the rest of the asteroid belt and then had to come up with a new designation for them because no one wanted fifty thousand planets.

If we find a Mars-sized object outside the Kuiper Cliff (or actually find Planet Nine finally), that will be a planet. Still, the IAU’s definition is bullshit.

That's the argument the nigger who cosplayed Sagan used to promote his planetarium. He was also shilling climate change hoax, so I wouldn't be surprised if Pluto become planet again some time in the future.

The reason it's not a planet anymore is because if it was, uncountable other rocks would be planets, too and instead of eight planets in our system, we'd have hundreds.

That being said, I would find it pleasing if we did just that and then had hundreds of planets.
