Do you know how difficult it is for a right-wing conspiracy nut in Tennessee to fuck around enough that they actually find out?

InquisitiveApathy ,

Seriously. There is either some serious misconduct going on or this police chief definitely didn’t come up with a polite enough excuse not to attend their bosses bosses boss’s church fundraiser.

Beautiful news, thank you.

FatherGascown , in J.K. Rowling, Elon Musk Named in Imane Khelif's Cyberbullying Lawsuit

Honestly, the French can go suck a baguette. The fact that something like this can be done for internet speech is just ridiculous, and I don’t even like either Rowling nor Musk.

theilleists ,

So we all agree there are exceptions to freedom of speech, like the proverbial person shouting “Fire!” in a crowded theater, right? But you think incitement to violence is fine as long as you say it with a tweet instead of with your mouth? What a loophole!

Huh, I had always heard it as “turbulent priest,” but as I look it up, I realize there would obviously be multiple valid translations, cause Henry said it in French.

Nuke_the_whales ,

So you think consequences shouldn’t be a thing?

LarmyOfLone ,

It IS important to stop fascist speech because fascist speech is fascist recruitment. That is why anti will fight to deny any fascist a platform.

I recently read a book about anti-fascism What Is Fascism? An Excerpt From “Fascism Today: What It Is and How to End It” | Truthout and it’s very enlightening to read the theory. Highly recommend. These folks have battled fascism for a 100 years and laws and governments are rarely any help. There is “liberal antifa” and for example sued the KKK out of existence and it includes using laws to sue fascists like Rowlings and Musk.

Otherwise there are only the streets.

So how should a civilized society deal with vile speech amplified and magnified that works to bringing and end to civilized society?

Dasus ,

You don’t think there’s any real danger in fascist rhetoric?

Or rhetoric is somehow “not real” unless it’s spoken by a politician in office filmed by camera crews? Which you probably would see on the internet

I’m not saying to never use Firefox Android forks, but the reality is that Chromium forks are significantly more secure on Android, such as Mulch (same dev as Mull) and Chromite (Bromite fork).

Again, I am talking security, not privacy, and specifically for Android.

Here is a good write up on the topic from the developer of the Mull and Mulch browsers:

divestos.org/pages/browsers

For desktop there are a lot of good Firefox forks, such as Mullvad’s Browser, Librewolf, & Waterfox. If a website needs Chrome to work, I just use Vivaldi or Ungoogled Chromium.

Edit: I’ve made this point a few times, and always with lots of downvotes, just kind of funny. Especially when I provided a technical write-up from the developer of a security focused distro (DivestOS) as well as two popular security focused Android browsers (Mull and Mulch), but hey, maybe you all know better than he does.

JohnDClay ,

YouTube isn’t playing on Firefox with Ublock for me either. I’ll need to go through and reinstall my extensions, but I couldn’t find the root cause so far, I’d just been using chrome with ublock for YouTube and Firefox for everything else.

parpol ,

Use a redirect plugin to open all YouTube links in invidious.

On android, GrayJay is the best app for not only YouTube but all video and streaming platforms.

JohnDClay ,

But that wouldn’t have comments or updating recommendations, right?

JohnDClay ,

As for grey jay, I haven’t had time to compile it yet. ReVanced is working well for me.

Zier ,
@Zier@fedia.io avatar

Try NewPipe or a fork of that for YouTube on Android.

JohnDClay ,

It doesn’t have recommendations or ability to comment does it? And ReVanced is still working for me on Android.

Mog_fanatic ,

Saaaaame for me on PC. Such a bummer.

Make sure jnn-pa.googleapis.com isn’t blocked anywhere in your network. It may perhaps be blocked in a filter list you have activated in uBO, DNS, VPN, Firewall, anti-virus, Firefox enhanced tracking protection, etc.

sheogorath ,

Thankfully, Firefox is open-source, so we can just use one of the forks, or perhaps Ladybird will be ready for general release by that time.

Firefox already adopted manifest V3 but specifically kept the features needed for adblockers

okay, opera only, heard.

what do we do if a user isn’t running iOS? can it involve spiders?

Chromium got opera bruh…I’m sorry.

primrosepathspeedrun ,

right but can we still have spiders pop out of the phone of anyone who visits our website on an OS other than iOS? or did they put that off until HTML6?

Oh, well that I don’t know. That’s fun.

Drink local.

corsicanguppy ,

Yes. This way, the local guy I’ll never know, who employs dozens of local people, will get his profits; instead of a remote guy I’ll never know, who employs dozens of local people. Help me understand which stranger is more worthy, then, based on the zip code of their house?

  1. There are plenty of tiny coffee places (and other small businesses) near me where the owner is there all day, every day with just one or two employees. You’ll get to know them if you want to. You might also bump into them around town. If they suck, patronize a different place.
  2. Theoretically, most of the money that I spend there stays in town, helping to keep other businesses and families going. They probably sponsor the local animal shelter or little league team. I like that.
  3. I’ve worked in small businesses and corporate America. In my experience corporate America always sucks, small business only sometimes suck. I don’t like supporting large corporations and especially not their admin and C-suite. Those vampires are why the wealth gap is growing so quickly.
  4. Corporate food is boring.
  5. Some people argue that all of the transportation involved in moving around product and people for multi-national corporations is worse for the environment. I don’t care about that personally but it seems like a reasonable conclusion.
fmstrat ,

Have you been to local shops? Usually local owners participate in the business, we see ours roasting all the time. The last place we went when traveling was opened right next to the AT by a hiker who runs it by herself with a friend.

If you haven’t met the owner, you probably haven’t tried to. But my guess is, you don’t go there anyway out of some weird spite.

skuzz ,

Just make coffee at home before you leave. 10 minutes versus however long the coffee shop trip costs in time and money. Even faster if you get a basic coffeemaker that has a clock that can be set to start up automatically.

Coffee shops are overpriced for the mediocrity.

Jimmycakes ,

Ok but I don’t have any teenagers at home who will make whatever they want instead of what I ordered and take 20 minutes to do it.

fmstrat ,

While I agree, part of it is the experience. Some people want to spend time away from home, and for many families that is a way to buy one drink and get alone time or a place to sit with friends for a while. Sometimes it’s also the skill in the drink itself (not Starbucks, though). So in those cases, drink local.
