zip ties, the metal reinforced ones are called wire cuffs. get used a lot at protests and other mass arrests, too.

yep. I know if it wasn’t unusable trash I might not have come over to lemmy.

in general. plenty of reasons you might be here, could just be reddit got unusable.

lemmy isn’t too evil. on purpose. mostly.

certainly less vile than facebook. “no political system is perfect so im’a just exterminate the jews and revere the fuhrer” is not a good look

and if that sounds like hyperbole, remember how many of your young-male and elderly relatives were radicalized by that social media platform, which has been critical or complicit in multiple genocides, finished and ongoing.

yeah but those are mostly gone or otherwise unusable now, one way or the other. that’s kind of the problem.

edit: I wish I could help. there are reddit communities I miss too, but reddit killed them, and they haven’t popped back up anywhere.

we absolutely should. facebook is fucking evil, and getting everything to move off it, damaging the network effect, is important for creating a more free and open information ecosystem.

wire cuffs; reinforced zip ties.

I think we should be shaming anyone who goes into LE, ACAB; melanin doesn’t change that.

black lesbian cop, who is of course in the GOP.

the only thing you would be healed from by wearing it

not actually definitely true! look up ‘radiation hormesis’

I mean, it’s not what they’re advertising, and I don’t think we know for sure that it’s a thing, but it might be, and this would make it fucking hilarious.

OMG adorable wolf with kitty friends! this sounds pretty awesome.

why can fascists only imagine a better world when they’re trying to make it sound awful?

every single time the american military has been kicked to shit it’s been by barefoot peasants with rifles old enough to retire, and never enough of them to arm every soldier.

I don’t, but I do use some of the space for backups.

I said all this.

and I ask again: are you currently having an existential crisis about the limits of knowledge and the fundamental contradictions of knowledge? are you courting chapel perilous? are you balancing on the knifes edge of zen and madness? because that’s the only way I can explain this level of skepticism.

okay but I have less than 100TB on my systems, and most of that is backups.

i keep imply an existential crisis about the limits of knowledge, because we pretty-much know, and that’s the only good-faith assumption I can think of that explains the uncertainty here.

okay but what do we do about backing up the massive library of content that only exists on youtube? how do we back that shit up, so when they break those, it is’t all lost forever?

pissed? sure. ‘murder someone about it’? unlikely. the things we get THAT upset about are entirely different.

okay but we do have information. I addressed that in points one and two. we do have information. I told you what information we have. so I return to point five, and wonder if you need a hug.

he searched for both biden and trump (and I think some others?) events because he didn’t care WHO he shot, just that it was important. the kid was a right winger, in specifically the way that children can be, and that motivated that he did a shooting, but not who he shot. correct. this is what I said originally.

I dont know if he knew what he believed

that is what I meant by ‘in the way that kids are’

plenty of people like to shoot guns. lefties, however, do not get butthurt because its a core part of our identities so when someone says ‘you’re so bad at shooting we dont even trust you to point that thing in the right ~120 degree arc to not risk shooting at us, go away’.

you addressed everything I said. so… what IS up with you? lets go back to point 5. feels like that’s more what this is about.

incel is more poetic and gives more a sense of scale. ‘misogynist’ without elaboration feels smaller, less accurate.

its a compression issue, dear. sorry.
