Some of us out here are stuck on older systems with a maximum of 8GiB of
RAM. Others may be using systems like the Raspberry Pi that can't be
upgraded (that I am aware) and that typically max out at 4GiB or 8GiB.

Sure, it will be a bit faster having 16GiB of RAM and no swap than 8GiB
RAM + 8GiB swap if that is an option. However, modern operating systems
are designed to swap out out certain things to make the best use of all
available RAM and so you will technically not get the full benefit of a
RAM upgrade going this route. It may be, however, that your usage
patterns only max out 16GiB of virtual memory usage either way, in which
case it may not matter as much.

Dude, folks normally assume a desktop. Bad assuption these days I guess.

BEFORE loading any Tor sites, but after installing, DISABLE JAVASCRIPT!

Tor n.ggers do not do this setting by default, on the basis that they want Tor 
Browser to be more popular.

In reality, it is a trap to catch newcomers, and even old timers who install on 
a new device or etc.

The Tor n.ggers also enable JavaShaft by default on every other Tor Browser 
platform too.  You have been warned.

Really, that's as n.ggardly as it gets!


Be careful out in the real world.. lotta n.ggers out there.

2020-07-17 Thread таракан
The "legal team" of Mr Assange, it is before everything a juicy business... for 
themselves...

'Law' is a parody there. A necessary comedy for that democratic circus. Well, 
they won't execute Mr Assange, they will make him slowly
and slowly die... to the extradition, then in the USA, then in a supermax, 
until the end, and he will be an example for the others who would like to 
try... just don't try...

Many things were wrong with Mr Assange, If you intend to be a spy, then you 
keep your profile a total secret, not showing and advertising yourself 
everywhere on TV.

If you intend to be a 'journalist' (and nothing really positive can be linked 
to that term) then it's a bad idea to act as a spy...

Finally, if you intend to create an 'open society' which is 'clean' and 
transparent and where everything is been known, that is exactly what the 
Soros-US-Democratic shit have promoted in Ukraine with the results of breaking 
the country in two...

If you mess with the US military secrets, expect reactions. In Russia, Assange 
would have been shot dead a long,long time ago for having done just a fraction 
of what he has done. Sometimes I think shot faster even  in 'democratic 
Ukraine', now after euromaidan.

Crimes of war are everywhere. War is awful. Regarding Donbass there are 
thousands and thousands of anonymous videos on youtube and elsewhere , similar 
to the 'Collateral Murders' which has produced by WikiLeaks... featuring 
horrible crimes , some fakes, some reals.
(and good luck to know which one are real and which one are fake)


So what do we learn from Wikileaks, that the USA are no better than the others 
'non-democratic' countries? What a lesson!

There is just a conclusion... whatever one may think of Assange, he certainly 
doesn't deserve such a horrible fate because Assange didn't kill anyone, didn't 
steal anyone and didn't intend to cause harm to anyone - even not to the US 
Government apparently... and I do believe he is probably a very naive person.

What happens to Assange will happen to many others. Once you're in their 
supermax, it is hard to escape.

Again, all this is a question of action... legal team is bullshit. Totally 
bullshit.
There are ways of making people out of jail... all depends on risks, money and 
especially motivations.

What we see is the manifestation of a hidden (and hideous) power inside the 
'democratic' countries. That power can only be fought by a group of people who 
are opposed to that power for ideological reasons. Once again, so far there are 
no ideology to unite...

It seems his lawyer is now the mother of his 2 next children.  That's why I am 
concerned she is literally "too close to home" to defend him properly.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8210957/WikiLeaks-boss-Julian-Assange-fathered-two-children-inside-Ecuadorian-embassy-lawyer.html

JA never "evaded rape charges" he personally presented himself to the Swedish 
police when asked, before he ever left that country.  Case was closed.  What 
Assange later attempted to evade was cross-jurisdictional, essentially illegal, 
extradition to the USA.

The Demon-rats are still paddling their little rat feet in the waters as their 
ship sinks, but they still hope for a November win, and until that fat lady 
sings, they are in with a chance.

Until then at the least, expect Assange to remain locked up, and expect the 
lock down to continue.

MOTU: Master Of The Universe.  Result of a dominance theory of evolution
analogous to the development of a single multicellular body from many
cultures of cellular lifeways.  Note: both multicellular and single-celled
life have diversely survived long term evolution, coexisting together.
They are unfortunately indescribably different today.

As anarchists we fight with our lives against _anybody_ being a dominant
sustained MOTU.  But obviously somebody already is.

As a primitivist my world ends if my community cannot make a free life off
roots and berries provided by nature, stewarding peaceful local ways with
our free time.  Many Chinese people likely feel this way too.

As a crazy culture theorist I recognize that each of us is an MOTU already:
we need to be able to shout Fire! when the hospital is burning down and
have everyone flee.  Any culture that takes such freedoms risks dying of
unaddressed emergencies that our ancient genes are better attuned to than
our city planning research.

My analysis is that there are 2 'Covid' viruses:

1) a 'strong' flu - a biological virus - which results from a combination of 
factors, I think mainly pollution.

2) a massive hysteria, collective paranoia and coordinated fear which is by far 
much more dangerous than the 'biological' virus. If our human society would be 
a network of machines, then that 'second Covid virus' would be a computer virus.

In 2) what is striking is the leading role of 'the police' and other similar 
fascist and coercive powers. People are getting beaten, fined, arrested ... or 
even killed because they dare to go in the street or refuse to wear a mask. 
Which mask is probably generally useless by the way ...  note the role of the 
media in the amplification of that fear: "That man went to a party and mocked 
Covid-19, now he's dead", just like if it was a punishment from god, at least 
from the god of Covid-19, like if Covid-9 was the punishment for our crimes and 
the mask the redemption, the police being the ministers of the 'cult'...

So what is hidden behind this madness? Nothing good? A collective madness... 
something sinister which is just starting.
Today we must get a mask to get food, tomorrow we will have to show our anus to 
get the same. This will never end.
It is a great crime than to refuse to sell food or healthcare to someone 
because that person 'does not wear a mask'.

Can we organize ourselves against that ? Creating groups? Again preppers are 
just the base, they lack 99% of what a structured parallel society would need 
to develop itself.

Well said.

Ironically, this drill lockdown is leaving a lot of folks with a lot more time 
to conteplate their lives.

When shelter, food and water is handled, we have the space to find ourselves, 
to make decisions like "what sort of communication network would be simple and 
useful between small communities", and "where would we like to travel, or need 
to travel, and how would we like to do that".

Covid, for many at least, is a temporary halt to the Human Race.

Tor is a "choice of n.ggers" conundrum: if you don't use it, your local boys in 
blue have much more ready access to your torrenting, if you do use it, the

via Tor at the moment.

China analogy.  China, to steal a line from Shrek's Donkey, is "Pol Pot on the

Unleashed, China will bring hell on Earth.

Pol Pot can be read about on wiki, China is about understanding their (group) 
mindset, and witnessing how Tianenmen played out is a good start to actually

For someone in contact with JA's legal team, perhaps the legal application of 
"unclean hands" might be useful:

When the prosecution comes to the table with unclean hands, where does the law 
lie?

The prosecution/USA gov (and steps in the system itself):

 - attempted, quite apparently, to entrap Assange first into Sweden

 - at multiple times, in and out of court, JA has been denied his own paperwork

 - the UK Judge who was shown publicly to be with a conflict of interest, yet 
continued to preside over the case on multiple appearances

 - the evident coercion put upon Manning, of an extra year's jail after she was 
pardoned

 - all that cross jurisdictional "USA is the policeman of the world" bullshit


Perhaps others can think of more.

I am concerned that JA's defence lawyer is now WAY too close to home, and that 
she may no longer see the obvious for whatever reasons.

Even for those who so crave the "rule of law", to be "hung on the tree of the 
law" (Galations) rather than to hang by his own conscience and God alone, well, 
the law, as drudgery as it is, to be at all meaningful to anyone with half a 
conscience, must be founded in basic principles of justice at the very least, 
such as fairness and no abuse of process, the principle of "unclean hands".

e.g. so OK, the US Gov insists on "holding JA to account according to various 
strict and cross-jurisdictional applications of law" (and rather shockingly, 
public murmerings on this list that JA must contiue to do pennance, continue to 
atone for his evils and wrongs, to do more time in maxi),

but IN THAT SAME principle, the prosecution must (if justice is to be seen to 
be done), allow Julian due process, documents, the time he needs for legal 
attack against the prosecution etc - in short, the prosecution, to not be seen 
to be biased, must simultaneously prosecute itself, for all its misdeeds and 
unclean hands.


There is only one possible principle upon JA's neck which can be said to be 
moral or karmic: not "national security", not "muh state secrets", and not (it 
seems) any of the charges being brought against him (but note that I don't know 
the list of charges, and the US prosecution seems to be ambushing in various 
ways with new charges over time).

I agree that there is hardly anything to expect from Musk. In the USA, one does 
not become such a powerful person without having strong political ties with the 
Gvnt and power in place.

Musk may have some dreams and some talent, I  agree on this but knowing the 
character and how he made money from payPal which is a real piece of shit, 
which was sold billions of $ to eBay - another mega piece of shit - I have few 
hopes anything can be achieved by Musk that could benefit 'mankind" in general.

Anything that would provide alternative communications to people on earth 
should be affordable and ran by people / organizations which are not greedy or 
corrupt (good luck to find any !) ... well maybe that will be created... 
actually I am part of a group which is trying to build a free Short-Wave radio 
network for data transmissions using cryptography, sort of 'survival 
internet'... without any Musk behind.

We really may need that to keep our human knowledge. Some may know the project

I still think that if - for example - cypherpunks (or others) would like 
independent access to internet, they would need to use a technology that they 
understand from A to Z and more important that they can manufacture themselves.

Using internet by satellite would require the ability to manufacture satellites 
- which is not simple but doable and the ability to launch them in low orbit - 
which, with the technology of mini-launcher is also doable, while requiring a 
significant budget. Ground stations can also be manufactured... same story, 
hard to produce by small groups of people.

On the contrary Short-Waves based data communication do not require complicated 
digital processing and a ground station can be produced with relatively little 
equipment.
Ground stations can be mobile enough not to stay at same place, thus avoiding 
detection.

I am unsure anyway we would really need satellites to bring internet to the 
world, since internet is already everywhere, in my opinion, we may need such 
satellites for interplanetary communications.

We're in 2020, the world space fleet is populated with ... a few Soyuz based 
solely on USSR technology (not bad but clearly slightly limited by now) and one 
or two (not sure how much) Space-X Dragon... (+ all the secondary stuff: space 
probes,... )

As for spaceships able of interplanetary travel, the fleet is ... 0

so... all that Starlink story is a marketing stunt like always.

There are laws about money exchanges, and where it is necessary to have

I don't expect such people to be able to construct a printed circuit board,

This doesn't have to have anything specific to do with "USA".  Yes, Elon Musk

"approval" from USA to launch a constellation of satellites.  
>I would rather see USA as a death star, bringing death and chaos to every

Then I suppose we must disagree.  I don't think of this as a product of the 
USA:  In principle, a large-enough company could accomplish this, limited 
mainly by  the ability to launch satellites.  It's been a long time since USA 
and USSR had some sort of monopoly on launching satellites.  Today, the ability 
to do from ships pretty much breaks that monopoly to pieces:  These launches 
can occur from virtually any latitude, which is the important thing from the 
point of view of creating a specific orbit.  
(One of the unfortunate compromises made in creating ISS (International Space 
Statiion) is that it had to be "reachable" from both Cape Canaveral and 
Baikonur, which is in Kazakhstan.  The high latitude, about 45.5 degrees North, 
makes it harder (uses more energy) to achieve the same orbit as are achievable 
from Cape Canaveral, the latter being at about 28.5 degrees North.)
>A real alternative worldwide internet system should not be based on the

I DON'T say it DEPENDS on those things.  It's just that even where there are

Now dang!  That's some tough questions!

What is important is an individual thing I guess - given that so far at least, 
covid prep has only been for the need to handle the stupidity of others ("How 
much toilet paper do you need for a respiratory virus").

Still, the uncertainty of gov. and possible despotism on our doorstep does not 
rule out "food and water for basic survival" - we in Oz reportedly have the 
army locking down the border between Victoria, the state I live in, and New 
South Wales, just a few hours North.  Perhaps a practice run for bigger things 
to come - who knows?

Where/which/how/what is a life worth living?

back doors, since most tech is used against us, so Code Wisely muffas :)

As a human, life and love outdoors, under the sun, under the stars, resplendent 
before our creator and grateful in our existence.

Some of the "wild West frontier" novels of yore get into the heart of this... 
the vastness and glory of nature, the crushing defeats, the redemption and 
upliftment.

Camraderie, the journey with more than self at some point.  Without mateship, 
real friendship, companionship, intimacy, we can truly be said to miss part of 
the journey of a life worth living.  However flawed, we must live and love and 
die inside infinitely small and unworthy, to be born again, ride again, love 
again.

Thank you for your question.

  The lockdown that recently took place due to the pandemic was like a 
practice run for a bigger SHTF event. Many of our prepper theories played out 
and were accurate, while others weren’t as realistic as we thought beforehand.

  People who weren’t preppers already learned a lot about why they would 
want to be better prepared in the future, but they weren’t the only ones who 
learned lessons. These preppers took a moment to answer questions about the 
lessons they learned during the lockdown. (Here’s an article about the things I 
learned.)
  https://www.theorganicprepper.com/what-i-learned-during-the-covid-crisis/

  What did you learn about preparedness during the lockdown?

  Trisha…

  I learned two main things. First, I was very surprised at how strongly 
the isolation hit me. I am a person who is “energized” by interacting with 
other people. I knew that already, but I was shocked at how MUCH it affected 
me. Second, I got a taste of normalcy bias. I kept trying to see ways in which 
our situation was still “Normal”. As a school teacher of little ones for thirty 
years, I was pretty much used to switching into action immediately to deal with 
a crisis and putting my feelings on the back burner. So, I was shocked that it 
took me a couple of months to “accept” the changes in our lives and start 
looking for creative ways to make life work and meet our needs.
