Saw female reporter's nipple prominence and asked "is it cold in argentina?" https://sputniknews.com/viral/202001311078192175-is-it-cold-in-argentina-jo… Apparently, this is called sexism, not reporting - although I guess I was asking a question, but implicit in the question was a fact - if you looked, deep, enough. Got told I should get some sex-ism training. Absolutely frustrating. @SvenSpoormakers your comment is inappropriate. We are more than the clothes we wear. If you can't understand why your comment is inappropriate I suggest getting some training around sexism. — Michele Reid (@Bliss_On_Earth) January 30, 2020 https://twitter.com/Bliss_On_Earth/status/1222736807894241280?ref_src=twsrc… Sounded possibly kinky so I went along until I discovered that not only was it about some neo-linguistic cultural marxism, but absolutely no one had their nipples showing! Absolutely frustrating! Just looking at my bike on the balcony, thinking how much I love cycling and bam, yet again something happens to remind me that it is a great sport despite the people in it. Spoormakers needs to grow up. @SvenSpoormakers — Peter Warne (@pzwarne) January 30, 2020 https://twitter.com/pzwarne/status/1222874772452904960?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw "Bam!" alright - there's a reason I love cycling, https://www.yandex.com/search/?text=cycling+love+seat Joyride: New Device Poised to Turn Bicycles Into Sex Machine https://sputniknews.com/society/202001301078181463-joyride-new-device-poise… ... but it's more along the lines of "I wonder, does a sex change actually "work"?" Our real concern of course is the NSA monitoring - completely illegally - our teledildonics metadata! Absolutely frustrating! Teledildonics Users 'Sexually Assaulted' by Hackers bitchute.com›video/j2jB9IsnP2A/ "Mr. Roger's NSA & Death of The Sex Symbol" 12/6/19. Well, at least now that females are equal to males, including biologically, women are free to talk pub talk as much as the blokes are too ... right? I guess that's how the twitterati finally figured out the real problem with this female reporter - she was wearing, like, waaay too much, like (did I mention 'like'?): ... Also, This girl btw was not going around naked ffs — Flavia Cappellini (@FlaviaCapps) January 30, 2020 https://twitter.com/FlaviaCapps/status/1222836406625718276?ref_src=twsrc%5E… Glad we cleared -that- argentinian ex-pro-cyclist nipple problem up. The sad part is that women take it all so seriously, like you're out in public without a chaperone already, surely that's enough to have a laugh? Or is it "have a laugh, but not when men crack a joke, because they're more equal than we are it's just not fair" ?? So, someone is upset that a woman is not wearing a bra, while reporting on an event which has 150 men, all of whom are not wearing underpants? — Girona Cycling (@GironaCycling) January 30, 2020 https://twitter.com/GironaCycling/status/1223018508306567171?ref_src=twsrc%… Listen hunni bunni sweeti pickle pie, it was humorous, and you're assuming upset? Experiencing a distinct lack of pickles in ya diet per'aps? Nipple up, buttercup :) Nice to see the sex is finally equal ... except for females who want privileges to not be commented on, whilst claiming all male pribileges. Absolutely frustrating - I'm just so, frustrated "just like a female" ... I guess :D Remember folks, penis = man, which is an extraordinarily powerful message - you see, penis power arises from being a man, and inherent with being a man, is having a penis - just ignore the statistically insignificant hermaphrodites for a moment: No Justice: Penis Man Taken Down by AR-15-Wielding SWAT Team http://dstormer6em3i4km.onion/no-justice-penis-man-taken-down-by-ar-15-wiel… (We can guess that expanding his message to be just -slightly- more factual (literally, factually inclusive) from "penis man" to "penis, man or hermaphrodite" wouldn't have had the same ring. +1 for confronting anti-CIS anti-factual bigots I guess... At least swat teams also arrest women who get public with vagina propaganda ... don't they? ) Next up, N.gger Joe beer :D Germany Produces Nazi Beer, Jews Do Not Find Humor in This http://dstormer6em3i4km.onion/germany-produces-nazi-beer-jews-do-not-find-h… ... I personally walked into the Jewish Question because the Jews were so whiny. You can always rely on Jews to flip out and start whining. And this is beneficial to my personal life mission, which is to cause people to become upset on the internet. They are even more reliable than women. At least one in a million times, a woman will manage to walk away from the screen instead of gobbling up bait like a hypersonic bait-gobbling machine. ...

This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children. This is not a way of life at all in any true sense. Under the clouds of war, it is humanity hanging on a cross of iron.” -Dwight D. Eisenhower

Puri.sm Librem 5 Phone Ships, Pine64 Pinephone Coming, Linux and BSD Phones

https://www.pine64.org/ https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2019/09/purisms-librem-5-phone-starts-shipp… https://puri.sm/posts/first-librem-5-smartphones-are-shipping/ https://pureos.net/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AuT2w6BkT-k https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gvnt78mK-Ac https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yHcHi0TBFv4 https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC64-PJ-yoF7aJ9pIHWEbrTQ/videos Support the Digital Rights Movement... Get this phone ! Purism announced their first Librem 5 smartphones were rolling off the assembly line and heading to customers. "Seeing the amazing effort of the Purism team, and holding the first fully functioning Librem 5, has been the most inspirational moment of Purism's five year history," said their founder and CEO Todd Weaver. On Wednesday they posted a video announcing that the phones were now shipping, and Friday they posted a short walk-through video. "The crowdsourced $700 Linux phone is actually becoming a real product," reports Ars Technica: Purism's demand that everything be open means most of the major component manufacturers were out of the question. Perhaps because of the limited hardware options, the internal construction of the Librem 5 is absolutely wild. While smartphones today are mostly a single mainboard with every component integrated into it, the Librem 5 actually has a pair of M.2 slots that house full-size, off-the-shelf LTE and Wi-Fi cards for connectivity, just like what you would find in an old laptop. The M.2 sockets look massive on top of the tiny phone motherboard, but you could probably replace or upgrade the cards if you wanted... [Y]ou're not going to get cutting-edge hardware at a great price with the Librem 5. That's not the point, though. The point is that you are buying a Linux phone, with privacy and open source at the forefront of the design. There are hardware kill switches for the camera, microphone, WiFi/Bluetooth, and baseband on the side of the phone, ensuring none of the I/O turns on unless you want it to. The OS is the Free Software Foundation-endorsed PureOS, a Linux distribution that, in this case, has been reworked with a mobile UI. Purism says it will provide updates for the "lifetime" of the device, which would be a stark contrast to the two years of updates you get with an Android phone. PureOS is a Debian-based Linux distro, and on the Librem 5, you'll get to switch between mobile versions of the Gnome and KDE environments. If you're at all interested in PureOS, Purism's YouTube page is worth picking through. Dozens of short videos show that, yes, this phone really runs full desktop-class Linux. Those same videos show the dev kit running things like the APT package manager through a terminal, a desktop version of Solitaire, Emacs, the Gnome disk utility, DOSBox, Apache Web Server, and more. If it runs on your desktop Linux computer, it will probably run on the Librem 5, albeit with a possibly not-touch-friendly UI. The Librem 5 can even be hooked up to a monitor, keyboard, and mouse, and you can run all these Linux apps with the normal input tools... Selling a smartphone is a cutthroat business, and we've seen dozens of companies try and fail over the years. Purism didn't just survive long enough to ship a product -- it survived in what is probably the hardest way possible, by building a non-Android phone with demands that all the hardware components use open code. Making it this far is an amazing accomplishment.

I'm just white. I didn't choose to be supreme, Supremacy chose me. - and what's this "NPC" meme? - [PEACE]
by Zenaan Harkness 04 Oct '20

I'm just white. I didn't choose to be supreme, Supremacy chose me. White privilege? Ahh yes, “white achievement”. #ItsOkToBeWhite Meme of the $TIME_VECTOR: NPCs exist in IRL. NPCs ("non player/playable character" for the gaming impaired) are people who look and seem to act normal, but are functionally mentally disabled - unable to think much if at all, unable to reflectively listen, unable (or really struggle) to form any original thought, often cannot answer basic questions e.g. "So you hate Trump, you want change - how are you going to achieve that?" followed by a blank stare. https://www.reddit.com/r/OutOfTheLoop/comments/9hc9cs/whats_going_on_with_t… “Npc’s are people who lack critical thinking.” "It was shocking to a lot of people, myself included, to find out that a lot of the people you interact with on a daily basis are literally incapable of thought as we understand it. The same response kept coming up - "This explains everything". That was pretty much my thoughts too. Like this line out of 1984 really got me: Orwell's 1984: “It was not the man’s brain that was speaking it was his larynx. The stuff that was coming out of him consisted of words but it was not speech in true sense: it was a noise uttered in unconsciousness like the quacking of a duck.” “I can see why people get upset by [being labelled as a living NPC meme]. I don’t think we should make fun of people who think differently, or even at a “lower level”. If it is thinking at a lower level, then you are just making fun of the disabled.” The distance between he who can critically reason, reflectively listen, introspect and engage in con-verse-ation, and those who cannot, is a gulf of consciousness so vast that the one incapable cannot even conceive of what he is missing. Idiocracy in action. Now the fun part - being labelled an NPC is apparently https://kotaku.com/how-the-npc-meme-tries-to-dehumanize-sjws-1829552261?IR=T quite triggering to the typical "SJW NPC wacko". Just like (literally, as in, actually) CNN's Don Lemon calling Kanye West a "token negro". real thoughtful there Mr Lemon… real thoughtful. Hmm… beware memes from the "anti-progressive online communities" hey? Memes are dangerous, as are "anti-progressive online communities" you hear? Do NOT go to them! Especially don't go to the vile Daily Stormer Memetic Monday article which meme-highlights how truly pissed off "@brightabyss" got with this "NPC meme" - yes @brightabyss, your name is so unique and snowflakey we understand your pain - so embrace your inner child already and give him his blankey and a pacifier - it is so clear from your @…abyss nick that you could never be mistaken for an NPC, so don't you fret your little brow about... and leave your bedside leather lampshade on to keep the darkies away... you'll be alright now. https://dailystormer.name/memetic-monday-npc-edition/ ^B^B^B^BWhoopsososorry

Goys and Hoys, le overton window nicely banged open for now, in this instance Scott Adams backs USA Republican Candace Owens after she rips into lying Democrats Ted Lieu and Jerry Nadler: The most charitable explanation of this situation is that @tedlieu is experiencing temporary TDS hysteria and owes @RealCandaceO the world's biggest apology. The less charitable explanation is almost beyond comprehension. https://t.co/u9GrjCYZB0 — Scott Adams (@ScottAdamsSays) April 9, 2019 Interesting times :) Candace Owens in EPIC clash with Ted Lieu at congressional ‘white nationalism’ hearing https://www.rt.com/usa/456065-candance-owens-ted-lieu-hitler/

OpenPOWER EULA up for review - intends to be "libre-friendly"
by Zenaan Harkness 20 Sep '20

OpenPower EULA Released, FOSDEM, and More (Libre RISC-V M-Class by Luke Leighton) https://www.crowdsupply.com/libre-risc-v/m-class/updates/openpower-eula-rel… Several things in this update: the OpenPower Foundation released their EULA (which is really exciting); we had a last-minute decision to go to FOSDEM to meet NLNet (and meet lots of nice people including someone from the EU Commission); we have new team members helping out (and making really good progress). Before we begin, however, we still have a high-priority task of finding a C++/compiler developer for the NLNet-funded 3D MESA Driver project. EUR 50,000 is available, tax-free: this thread describes the scope, where you’re pretty much at liberty to choose the approach that you’d like to take. http://lists.libre-riscv.org/pipermail/libre-riscv-dev/2020-January/003302.… OpenPOWER Foundation Releases the Power ISA EULA This is a big deal: the EULA for anyone wishing to create a Power ISA compatible processor, it’s been designed to be “libre-friendly.” We will need to do a full review, and would appreciate feedback on it, via this bug report. A very quick read (like, right now): the really interesting bit is the combination of a royalty-free grant (as long as you are fully compliant with Power ISA) in combination with “if you initiate patent litigation, you lose all rights immediately.” This provides an extremely strong disincentive for patent trolls to “try it on.” It also actively encourages contributors to make sure that their work becomes an “official” part of Power, because that then gets them under the “umbrella” of protection as part of this EULA. https://openpowerfoundation.org/final-draft-of-the-power-isa-eula-released/ http://bugs.libre-riscv.org/show_bug.cgi?id=179 ...
