Palau is actually part of the US Postal system. Their “state code” or “possession abbreviation” is PW. Their zip codes are 96939 and 96940
Can’t you just turn the “kill switch” option on in Proton and then everything goes through it?

Overthrowing capitalism.
they just need marching orders and a coherent mass
They’re not going to be permitted to be organized in any meaningful way. All they’re gonna do is stochastic terrorism and isolated hate crimes. What are they gonna do, institute fascism? We’re already there. That’s why they were handled with kid gloves in the Capitol building, it’s theirs already. Corporations already run both capitalist parties and they’ll manipulate the masses to preserve the status quo. Who would a civil war be between? Who would be permitted by our corporate overlords to organize such a thing? What would their goals be? The real threat of fascism is once we hit the next depression and mass discontent needs to be smothered with totalitarian nationalism.
Wow I hate Reddit. Second one’s all “whatabout Trump” “whatabout Putin”
Logitech Media Server, followed by strawberry, quod libet, rhythmbox
Quod libet starts to act funny with 50,000 flac collections. Rhythmbox too. LMS is still chugging at 100k and I can get it on any room in the house, across 2 clients on computers, 2 on raspberry pi and my android phone. If I want to listen to 24/96+, Strawberry can handle it all although I haven’t warmed up to the interface. Volumio sucks, it’s way too slow.
OK so he’s getting away with it.
There’s one where a guy sticks his arm in a blood pressure monitor and then zombies rip his arm off his body while it’s still in there and it reads 0 over 0.
I make steel cut oats in a rice cooker with a timer, so I can put the oats and water in the night before. I’ve pre-mixed the spices, peanut powder, flax powder. I throw nuts and raisins in when I mix it all together in the morning. For spices it’s cocoa, tiny bit of cloves, tiny bit of cinnamon, tiny bit of ginger, pinch of salt.
Interstate 97 in Maryland, from Annapolis to Baltimore. It’s almost always running smoothly with a 65mph speed limit. It’s just a no-bullshit fast straight run every day. Scenery is ass but that’s Maryland.
In many ways I was addicted to Reddit. I spent a lot of time on there. I needed an excuse to go cold turkey. I will go occasionally for specific information, but I’ve completely moved my idle doomscrolling to lemmy instances. There’s less content so it takes less time, which is good in a way.
I pay a little to pirate. Basically I’ve figured out how to download a large percentage of lossless songs from playlists I find anywhere. I scrape playlists of radio stations i like. I import those CSVs into Soundiiz, which costs $4/mo. Youtube mixes I like, in they go the same way, imoporting tracklists. Using Soundiiz, I import those lists into qobuz and deezer, which I use to pull down lossless FLACs using deemix and qobuz-dl in linux. Qobuz and Deezer and other streaming services have curated playlists by staff and subscribers, I just download the whole lists. I replaced lists of my mp3s like youtube rips, with FLACs, the same way. Qobuz and Deezer have free trial memberships but TBH after the sheer amount I’ve pulled down from them, it’s worth it to me. I’ve had to buy new hard drives because of this.
You don’t need Linux to torrent. The VPN is so your ISP doesn’t send you love letters. That’s the useful thing. Once you have a VPN, there’s no reason to be paranoid about conventional piracy behavior.
If you’re paranoid anyway, it’s more than just your choice of distro. OpenBSD is kinda made for paranoia, but you still have to think about who you’re hiding from, how much is at risk if you get caught, how much time and money it’s worth investing to protect yourself, what threats you’re up against etc. Like, are you more afraid of downloading malware or being caught breaking the law?
If you just want some movies and music, get a vpn and go nuts. If you have no vpn, you can avoid being noticed by not sharing stuff that’s popular when it’s popular, like blockbuster movies.
Tails is a USB bootable linux distro folks use to buy drugs, FYI. Tor is helpful for staying anonymous from some companies and governments. I2P may be more private than Tor. Like, if you’re afraid your government will put you in jail for political beliefs, then you start looking at in-depth OPSEC.
The one-button interface for devices. I feel like I’m keying in an old-timey marconi telegraph, sending across the Morse code for “power off”.
FLACs from CDs, deemix-gui, qobuz-dl, and Soulseek. 102,000 songs. Play at home with Logitech Media Server. On the road I’ve transcoded it all to 128kbps Opus so i can fit it on a microsd card and I play it with PowerAmp. I mostly use Blessing2 Dusk earbuds with a Shanling MW200 bluetooth neckband, but sometimes also I use Focal Clear OG open-back over-ear cans with a qdelix 5k for bluetooth.
