…so…um…about that…

Nobody’s gonna be surprised when “Operation Final Solution” drops, are they? These absolute evil morons birthed straight out of the devil’s ass keep finding new lows for humanity until we stop them.

Yeah we’d just get dynasties of an immortal ownership class. Yeesh. :(

Two was supposed to protect one. :(

Sorry I didn’t articulate myself well here at all.

What I meant was, I’ve heard this particular contributor’s history is slim to none, and suddenly he shows up and PR’s this age form into the kernel.

That’s what’s weird.

You’re exactly right, most of us probably haven’t looked at kernel PRs. Such a major component in such a major project isn’t really a “My first contribution” territory, right?

So it should raise some eyebrows when this guy just pops up and PRs it and it gets merged so quick.

I’m not the most brilliant at this stuff so I’m happily open to being educated here if I’m way off, though.

But horrifyingly immoral usually boosts The Economy ™!! There’s just no way they could have seen this one coming. :( :( :( /s

Yeah, I fear you’re right. Evidence doesn’t point to benevolence here.

I’ll be honest I haven’t dug into the GitHub transcripts.

Are you sure you’re not reading something into this that’s not there?

Absolutely not sure! In fact my first inclination leans towards the cynical “This is totally a pro-authoritarian virtue signal move.” Because that’s seemingly everything nowadays.

But also I know things are seldom as they first seem. So I’m at least curious about this guy’s actual motives. Coming out of nowhere just for this contribution is hecka sus though.

I don’t like any of it. I looked to the Internet and open source to escape that petulant normie-verse of endless rage and braindead legislation. And they’re coming to assimilate us like they do everything else. :(

That’s something I wondered about the person who implemented this too, I wonder if it was an attempt to install a bare minimum to say “There. We did it. Leave us alone.” Instead of leaving it up to the government to force the issue, and he’s getting absolutely raked over the coals for it.

If that’s the case, I feel terribly bad about this backfiring so hard on him. I do think we should be putting up a lot more resistance before resorting to something like this though.

…if you do it wrong you can bring your entire organization down.

In theory, but also we just don’t hear of this actually happening to organizations very much. Why? (I could be wrong, I don’t constantly dig through news to find instances of this happening.)

Everything from tax issues to personal data retention and protection policy gets overlooked all the time, with very real consequences, and we don’t hear of those organizations getting “taken down” for it. (Like when Equifax lost all our Pii and were just like ‘whoops.’ They’re still forcibly embedded in our lives anyway.)

Maybe this would get used to bring down a tiny small business if it caught legal attention, but anything larger could likely shrug it off.

Organizations don’t seem to bother with such inconveniences unless it’s actively enforced and audited. Is California really going to do that with this? Seems like it’d be prohibitively expensive.

So it’s just a little weird to me when legislation is proposed to infringe on end-users and suddenly there’s this huge rush to “get compliant” ahead of time. It seems like a lot less IT due diligence and more virtue-signaling agreeance with totalitarian politics.

Bomb falling sound

Sorry I can’t hear you over all the munitions they’re suddenly dropping on various countries we weren’t at war with. I think they asked how is the Dow???

Exactly. Some “specialist” walks in, ticks a form on a clipboard, and it just added $2k to your bill. I don’t know if it’s mistrust of science vs. mistrust of the for-obscene-profit medical establishment.

I think you’re misunderstanding my point; if your vote counted, and they were “guarding the polls” trying to loyalty test or intimidate, who cares what you say or wear or act like, as long as you get in there and check that box?

That ballot box is the endzone.

Sure, we should be protesting away, visibly, yes. We should be keeping the pressure on, yes. We need to be galvanizing and educating our communities, absolutely.

But come voting time? Pride and dignity be damned: Discretion is the better part of valor.

At the polls, yeah people who have already voted should be protesting and building morale to encourage everyone to show up.

But when it comes time to cast yours, nobody should give you a second look. Walk right in there like a ghost and check the box. At all costs. Even if you gotta look like a complete tool. Shower at home afterwards if you have to.

Being loud and proud and getting hauled away (or killed) beforehand is one less chance to get to fixing this thing, and even worse, you would be used as a tool to further scare away others from voting.

Not being able to tell who the true believers are vs. the saboteurs undermines factions all the time, and they absolutely use that tactic against us all the time.

I don’t personally think things will be so dramatic. The biggest battle is getting our side to actually vote at all, but we need to be prepared for this possibility and not be intimidated or foolhardy.

I’m sure I got so many more but I should be sleeping. Lmao will edit later maybe…

So much of my gray matter is reserved for gems from these videos such as:

“You’ll have SO many babies. Four HUNDRED BABIES!”

“What if everything you ever wanted…CAME. IN. A. ROCKET CAN‽”

"YOU’LL FEEL LIKE A JET FIGHTER MADE OF BICEPS! (ZZooOoOOooom!)

“You’ve had the worst, now try the THIRST…QUENCHER!”

“Wuht abut muh blue collar?” “JUICE SPRINGSTEEN.”

“Manana, Fizzbitch, and GUN!”

…okay the entire freaking videos are just, in my brain forever. Lol

there will be armed feds at polling stations to “protect them”

Y’know, if this happens, assuming the machines aren’t rigged, screw it…We should all be showing up in our gawdyest American flag apparel and cargo shorts and maybe even stupid little red hats. Blend right in, maybe on the way in even fist bump a fed goon with a “Herl yer, bruther.” …and vote the right way right under their stupid noses.

Drop the ego, become invisible, become inevitable. We have only our chains to lose and everything to gain.

I’m just using Docker on Proxmox, buuuut… I’m gonna look into this project. It looks like a LIFESAVER. Thank you for sharing this. You’re awesome! :D

Lol can’t believe somebody would do this. Just get on the Internet and tell lies. :(

Wait what? I thought it was to mitigate pollution. Holy CRAP. Any source on this…?

Yeah seriously, where’s all those friggin “Molon Labe” kids now? “2nd protects the 1st”? “Tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty”? “No step on snek”? “Don’t agree with you but will fight to the death for your right to say it”? “What did you just say to me you little bitch I’m a navy seal with over 99 confirmed kills”? (Lol)

Well here it is. The gubbmint wants to monitor your thoughts with the help of hidden microphones everywhere, hacking your phone, and probably space lasers. They want to biometric scan you and your kids just to allow access to electronic devices. They’re building databases and literally rounding people up they don’t like and putting them in concentration camps, even right here on home soil, no less! They’re murdering U.S citzens right here in our cities.

I thought we’d at least be allies with these types, with some general disagreements on the finer points, but these big tough sheepdoggy guys that seemingly adored the Constitution and AR-15s that were seemingly EVERYWHERE, are suddenly all disappeared, or getting fantastic glutes from all that goose stepping.

Bunch’a pathetic mall ninjas. It’s up to us to be training and looking after each other if we want any chance of brighter days ahead.
