Subvocal

Hey there! I’ve been disconnected from the security community for a bit. Are folks more active here or on Masto?

Preach.

Preach. We have 20 months until the midterms. Now is not the time to let “perfect” be the enemy of “good enough”.

It would behoove everybody to think of this week as a declaration of war.

One thing to keep in mind: wars are not won by brute force alone, they're won by psy-ops & demoralizing our morale.

Please reasses information you read from the point of view: why does it benefit the enemy if I believe this?

Amped 3 is my Roman Empire. Xbox 360 was such a game changer.

Can anyone get this in front of MacKenzie Scott? I feel like she’d do a lot of good at the helm there.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.

Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

I’m more curious as to how Liquid is going to respond. Seems like they’re on the verge of a similar breakthrough.

I’m glad this conversation is starting. I’ve been out of the church for like 16 years but lately I’ve been thinking about the sense of community I found at my youth group as a teen. Definitely a “Jesus was a socialist and you should be too” church, but I feel like I can’t express that, y’know?

Lol. Lmao, even. Thanks for the chuckle, needed it today.

An artist (Liberal Jane) drawing of a group of people. The person in the middle holds a sign saying “I don’t know how to convince you to care about other people.”

I can’t even look at the news today but this is about where I’m at.

Honestly, watch it for the technical side of the house. Killer costumes and set design.

Challengers got snubbed as hell.

Starting to get very tied of the fact that Muted Words doesn’t cover pictures. What’s the point of trying to build myself one singular bubble on the internet where I don’t have to see one of their stupid faces if my feed is gonna be wall to wall Their Faces?

You tell us, dawg. You’re the communicator.

for those who believe nothing can get better: you don't have to get in the way of those who do

#homelab Time to host all our own shit.

100%. I won’t be taking any shit from anyone claiming I’m not upset in whatever way makes them feel valid. Be pissed at the people who didn’t vote. I did my part. Anything else is just sowing further discord among the non billionaire class.

Democrats are STILL more mad at each other for whatever made up slights they’re upset about right now than THE PEOPLE WHO DIDN’T EVEN VOTE. Be angry at those people for letting this happen rather than people on your own side because they’re not reacting to hell the exact what you’d like. Losers.

It’s insane that even now, after their inactivity to do anything to avoid this, they’re begging us to continue doing emotional labor for them. I can’t see it as anything other than performative bullshit at this point.

You won't be any better at fighting what's coming if you burn yourself out and spend all your time feeling bleak and hopeless, and the people telling you that it's all despair now probably don't have anyone's best interest at heart.

We know Gen Z can organize like crazy. They’ll have so much more time to seize the means of production.

Word! You seem like a cool follow (I’m also in the security space); just trying to purge my feed of pro crypto shit.

Hard hard same. I did my part. So many others didn’t. Time to let people experience what they let happen. I also won’t be taking any shit for taking a few steps back and disengaging for a few years. Like don’t get mad at me for enjoying leopards eating faces, get mad at the people who didn’t vote.

Are you like actually into crypto? Or just doing this as a security exercise?

Is this a question that could be answered with a Google search?

Going to spend the day judging people by the content of their character.

I wish Stuxnet was taught at schools. People just don’t even know what’s possible.

No. Nobody seems to be able to comprehend that. And no one is listening to the experts in the room. We’re so cooked.

I knew @theverge.com was gonna do a paid tier but I didn’t realize quite how much they were going to throw behind the paywall. It’s a shame, they do good reporting but I can’t afford to subscribe to every outlet that chooses this model. Time to black hole them on the DNS server, I guess. ✌️
