@j12t pointed out that https://UncensoredNews.Us is slow. Thank you. I fixed a bug in my nginx configuration. It is much faster now. Still one more thing I can improve.

We all know the nazi salute is terrible. The salute launched the Tesla Takedown protests. But since then Musk is responsible for mass murder. That needs to be stressed so that people know what they're facing and can form a meaningful opposition. It isn't mentioned because it's unpalatable.

Elon Musk is a one-man demonstration of why we must overturn Citizens United even if we have to blow up the country to do it. He’s literally boasting about how he owns our politics. He’s spent more than all the oligarchs combined, IN ONE CYCLE! It’s insane that we are not striking massively to […]

Putin who says Ukraine committed terrorism by bombing his military aircraft, today bombed the Kherson Regional Capital building — because bombing civilian administrative offices is totally not terrorism in Putin’s upside-down reality.

We asked people signing up for #FediForum why they are coming. The biggest reason, by far: to connect with other, like-minded people. Second: learning about the Open Social Web. Followed by demoing software, telling others about their projects, and running sessions.

#Signal is becoming critical national infrastructure around the world 👏 Next, we need genuine Signal #decentralisation (not dependency on messaging queue servers controlled by a US-exposed organisation, making heavy use of #AWS) 🙏

Let’s be clear about 2 things: 1) Elon doesn’t care about the debt. If he did he’d advocate for the rich paying more taxes, not less. 2) Watching him turn on Trump is highly enjoyable.

Here's an idea: People in tech want better AI criticism? It's all just too $something? I'm willing to take off a month from work to write a whole bunch of detailed structural criticism if the people demanding better, more specific criticism pay my salary for that month.

A centralized intelligence database on all Americans is not inherently legal. It likely breaks the Privacy Act of 1974, the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), the 1st, 4th and 5th Amendments. This must be stopped. Contact your Senators and Representative and ask them to stop it. I […]

the greatest trick the centrists ever pulled was convincing people that "the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice" was about sitting on your ass until things magically got better, and not about the inevitable success of active participatory struggle

If nothing can be done in America to stop the US government from destroying America's leadership in science and technology then the EU and UK need to be pragmatic about seizing European strategic opportunities that emerge through American decline.

My apartment building in the centre of Katowice has 250 parking spots for 750 apartments, but the parking takes up roughly 2/3 of the land, and the building occupies the remaining 1/3. Parking generates revenue. In an ideal world what should we do? Dig up the pavement, and plant fruit trees? In […]
