Musk is underwater on Twitter loans, so he has to turn that into influence in this election. SpaceX makes a few billion a year, and they've burned up almost all the Artemis money without hitting any milestones from the original Starship bid proposal, but that's nothing compared to Tesla...

Tesla, which has been looking pretty ill lately... Cybertruck, headcut reductions, the as yet undelivered Roadster, obvious BS like telling people the 30K robotaxi will generate 100K yearly, trying to get his 50B$ compensation package (5 year's worth of payroll IIRC, and more than all profit the firm has ever generated). He should by all rights be at the center of a massive fraud case... And he might, if Tesla's overvalued stock craters.

I do but I don't label it. I guess anybody going thru my trash should mind any taped up boxes that sounds like there's a bunch of broken glass inside

Not really, you can do obscure things or obscure the hosting server with reverse proxies and mixnetworks. Most cloud hosts aren't sniffing around in your VMs/containers... But they might.

Freenet Messaging System (FMS) is a forum interface which uses the distributed key-value p2p storage of Freenet for publishing and hosting the content (which uses anonymous request forwarding similar to onion routing... and it's now called "Hyphanet" by its founder).

There are a few other systems that operate atop Freenet, including Freemail and some other forum systems that are very much not recommended due to illegal content.

2020 was the first time early voting was so common I think. I'd be surprised if 2024 surpasses 2020's total just because of that.

In this context they're saying the philosophy of PSL is a revised form of Marxism(-Leninism, probably). With negative implications.

Calling people is scary - much easier to post (I say this as someone who spends several hours on random video chat networks daily). I was baked when the last time a Dem phone banker called me and I kind of got into it with them. but I had to stop because I got the sense that if I kept reiterating the criminality of US empire more verbosely I might've made them cry. I assume they just have better data nowadays because I've only gotten texts from one random PAC this time around.

In my experience any kind of wound in the throat feels like something is stuck in it.

Stomach pain is probably psychosomatic, though I wonder what you swallowed?

how I picture the tenant from hellcostanza-maoist

 

Anyone know of a reliable source for BL-5C clones or refurbs? Seems like the options are basically amazon (fug) and aliexpress/alibaba. I can't find any trustworthy recommendations of anyone in particular selling these things, only trustworthy reports of ones which suck. Like "1200mAh" copies that get ~25,% as much discharge time.

I've got some old electronics I built that I'd like to resurrect with minimal time investment. I figured BL-5C batteries wound up in so many gadgets and mods there would probably be a reliable 3rd party clone still circulating.

Thanks
