Cryptocurrency: Seeking Approval
by grarpamp 12 Dec '21

12 Dec '21

Ultimately "seeking approval" is generally bound to be unproductive and cancelling to the goals of the approval seeker, as there is most always a point at which the would-be approver realizes their very existance is in jeopardy, from which they will thereafter always act to disapprove, violently. It's an odds game as usual, however analysis of history may show that your only hope is to indeed blitz efficiently, rapidly, subvertively, adoptively, privately, transformatively, without approval, far past the point at which disapproval is long since mooted. Whichever the way... Qapla'

by professor rat 12 Dec '21

Ellis is not refuting that she wrote the memos, and instead appears to be acknowledging their authenticity. As for attorney-client privilege, that doesn’t apply if the attorney and client are plotting criminal activity together. https://www.palmerreport.com/analysis/trump-lawyer-jenna-ellis-freaks-out-a… Ellis? You shouldn't be doing this.

Wikipedia Mirrors and Forks

I'd lost all my links to wikipedia forks, websearching hadn't worked, and was quite excited to see this.

This page also indirectly links to a number of third-party archives of wikipeda. It also gives instructions on running your own fork or mirror. The list of all mirrors considered active is at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Mirrors_and_forks/All . The archive of sites that have gone down is at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Mirrors_and_forks/Archive . Attached is a very quick scrape of names and urls [sorry it is so hasty]. It contains 706 entries, and misses a number that have abnormal formatting.
