How cute are you?

work for Linux based companies in europe like Open-Suse makers from germany that support these goals. Maybe Siemens and Bosh have some competent Linux folk as well, but I would guess they still heavily trade with the US/Tesla.

Nah as lemy.lol user I can see their posts I guess. And .ml can also visit their comms. It is not like you are missing on out much besides tankie circle-jerking Maduro supporters.

Self-host your own services and servers if possible. Seek out better standards that make it easier to run your own server @ home. Configure the firewall and DNS of your router/local network to block tech-giants using pi-hole.

Is there a reason you only advertise hexbear communities? Is lemdroid.io even federated with them?

If possible: move your family members to different locations anonymously. Move to friends. Mount internal security system that is not dependent on the external internet.

Do not deliberately seek danger/confrontation.

… my cat when I took her out for a walk

Your cat follows you on a walk? I see this sometimes, but usually I thought cats are more independent and tend to stray away from their human.

I agree. At first Vatnik was only used for lower- and uneducated-classes and low ranking meat, wearing cotton-jackets. Now Vatniks can be even billionaires and the elites of a society, like Musk and Peter Thiel.

Is Elon Musk a Vatnik? And Trump?

To me its just confusing how thin the concrete wall between the hallway and outside is.

What software do you use to do this? gimp?

maybe blur + compression + dithering + contrast effects may fix this? idk …

I would be interested in the name of the github repository you mentioned.

That is the thing about the privacy iceberg, it has no bottom. Once one realizes how many possible avenues of tracking there are, there is no stopping thinking about further ways for doing it. lol.

Stuffy plushy blobs surrounding a cushion with a ford ram on it, with the text SquishmalLows printed onto it.

I think its pokemon related. Like … this is their artstyle.

looks like thermal vision / night vision paintings
