How about a Grim Fandango movie? Or a Sam & Max or Monkey Island movie?

I have rocks to sell if anyone's buying.

1. Horrible abuse from media and devs since before I was born.

2. No one ever has infinite time and I totally understand that there are devs that can currently just grab and use if they're employed.

3. I dunno and defer

4. That makes sense on a first glance but the efficiency of profit will prolly never be like that again?

5. new people are born every day

6. First time I ever experienced screen burn was this month.

Location: NW USA

Remote: sure

Willing to relocate: yes to many places but not all

Other stuff: still wanting someone to take me under their wing and teach me how to harness my learning skills to be able to afford rent and utilities and sustenance and such. Willing and able to learn anything that can be presented to me as mutually sustainably beneficial.

Facebook, the CDC... they all suppressed legitimate concern about the most horrible thing during my life-time and even-more-so the younger people that continue to be traumatized by this when they were already in a worse position. John Cena, Daryl Morey, Hunter Biden - a star QB like Drew Brees in the US can't respect the US flag. LeBron James in US territory can't respect the US and can't disrespect the world's only hegemon, the Chinese Communist Party.

I don't have the means to fix very much of our world at all. I'll keep trying, though.

Seems like too little too late.

Blackmailing and framing must be easy for people who don't care. From there, I guess it's how well you can cultivate an audience for it?

I wish states had left us alone. Some of the much older abuses are "public" like from Montreal, a few are well known and even joked about, the rest continue to rule the media ecosystem over me. Multiple music videos are released under the name "Billie Ellish" depicting forcible injections and it still doesn't get discussed.

Another lesson for us poor and abused.

Meanwhile, many of us powerless cry ourselves to sleep over widely seen, publicly available evidence that happens to implicate rulers.

I never cared who "won".

Since the patriot act when I was a kid, and now beyond, it's felt worse and worse. Feeling violated every time I remember a particular law is having me inspected.

I did mean to reply to you (72 days ago plus in another thread) I just can't make a Twitter, like I've tried and doesn't like my IP or email addresses or something, not sure

I remember when someone explained here eloquently and inticately explained why Twitter constantly breaks in various ways, such at saying I'm not allowed to see a tweet, but then I merely hit reload and it works... easy fix posted around a year ago at least but still not implemented. Don't hold your breath.

People who have been laid off talk at me so much more than other candidates.

Because for decades we've been systematically rejected and unable to apply our gifts due to momentary misunderstandings at interviews that just crush our lives like anvils again and again. If someone has enough to pay me enough to afford rent and expenses like internet / water / power andlemme know what I need to learn on top of all I already know and I'll deliver.

I don't see how Kazakhstan could've outbid the abusive oppressors

I finally am coming to understand I am just one of the millions of faceless idiots that're more and more surely gonna be rendered silenced or abused further or dead. No one has any privacy without at least a remote lot with a Faraday cage, which I don't know a way to ethically come to be able to afford.

We never know how it's going to end.

So it's not just me that has to reload basically every time I try to view a Twitter page?

This is just the next terrifying development on Planet China. YouTube-dl went unmolested for years. About week ago, I was party to an online conversation a week ago about how youtube-dl is an important tool for archiving videos of public officials before they can be disappeared.

Coincidence?

After the RIAA won a case against Limewire in 2010, the next significant legal action I can find in a bit of looking is that the US Supreme Court ruled against the RIAA in Allen v. Cooper (March 23, 2020).

Here are the opinions: https://www.law.cornell.edu/supremecourt/text/18-877#writing...

I have a lot to look into...

That "belonged to intelligence" line haunts me as well, but I haven't seen it applied to NXIVM.

Dismantling blackmail rings is the most important issue in politics and the same co-opted media that had Katie Couric and George Stephanopolous attend Jeffery Epstein's getting-out-of-"prison"-after-pimping-a-minor-at-his-New-Mexico-ranch-filled-with-blackmail-cameras party are not going to do it for us. Facebook, Google, Palantir, intelligence agencies - they are giant machines for harvesting blackmail material and that is their secretly most totalitarian, power-centralizing and abusive function.

Anyone ever find a comprehensive attempt at a cost-benefit analysis about this sort of thing?

(An alternate option might be to rip the 4K BluRays, which is doable if you have the right drive, but also a bit of a pain.)

This is what I have been doing with MakeMKV.

We have zero ability to verify election integrity and now we're not allowed to talk about it.

Slavery.

I got a dumb external monitor for my laptop and then learned it doesn't have the right DRM for me to watch Blu-rays on it. Literally, I can view the Blu-rays on my laptop screen, but if I drag the window to the other screen, it won't display the video.

no, the CCP is far more ethnosupremacist and totalitarian

Radio Free Asia (RFA) published an article explaining the reason that the U.S. closed China’s Consulate in Houston.

The article stated that the U.S. has known that the staff members at the consulate were conducting suspicious activities, but, for a while, it did not take any action. The Second Department of China’s People’s Liberation Army (PLA), which is the PLA’s intelligence unit, sent staff members from a large network company, with fake IDs, to China’s Consulate in Houston. Those technicians used a large video platform’s backend data to identify people who might participate in the Black Lives Matter (BLM) and ANTIFA’s protests and then created and sent them customized videos on how to organize riots and how to do promotions.

The purpose was to “weaponize” big data technology. It delivered relevant materials precisely to those people who were most likely to participate in the protests, while other people could not even find those videos.

RFA did not spell out the company names. A Twitter account said the technicians were from Huawei and the video platform they used to identify candidates and push videos to was TikTok.

  Are you implying that presidential elections have any effects on foreign policy?
