not very active in jewish circles

i think this is going to be a recurring theme. i don't have solid data on this, but i reckon practicing Jews are more likely to be pro-palestinian.

Try doing anything without other people being involved, is that even possible? How does that line of thinking tell us anything about how people should relate to each other? You can analyze atomized individuals, but you end up with really incoherent ideas like "humans are fundamentally selfish". Sure, humans can be raised to be selfish, but compassion has to be beaten out of people in order to maintain a system that relies on these ideas. Honestly, the problem with individualism is that it depends on people living in an extremely forgiving environment. Any amount of serious adversity will teach you that it fucking sucks to do hard or complicated shit by yourself.

Dansup doesn't really deliver novel tech, but I'm always happy to see the idea getting out there and working out UX ideas at least. Federated video is a tough one. Web p2p tech is extremely limited so don't expect too much. Fedi dev's fixation of web technologies is really holding the platform back imo. Peertube makes bit torrent look bad by not being a complete peer experience, only because browsers can't do real networking. like, I can stream any show I want over bit torrent the day it releases no problem. with over 40 peers for popular content. hosting tiktok-like content could be just as good, but you just can't do this with web.

Sadly, most of the more technical projects have reactionary politics and a blockchain attached.. That's slowly changing, but we have way less funding at our disposal so its rough.

the best thing about the panthers is that they're the complete package. they operated clinics and breakfast programs and community defense and more. let them come back.

End the genocide. That's the one thing that his re election is hinging on and everyone knows it. They can call the protestors terrorists if they want, but when Genocide Joe can't win the election it'll be his own fault. I've looked for the positions of many different marginalized groups on this and the consensus that I see is: solidarity with Palestine is more important that the danger and violence we could face under Trump. If we have to suffer to stand up for starving Palestinian children, so be it.

Ceasefire now!

Mostly private, but I've used public peers in the past to give myself more flexibility. I usually have a cheap VPS setup as a gateway. The auto routing is really powerful, I just have a couple of hosts on my LAN that peer directly with the gateway and the rest is handled by local discovery. My mobile clients will usually have the same gateway setup for roaming, but if I'm hanging out at a library I might use a public peer over TLS if my gateway's port is blocked.

I use yggdrasil which, I believe, is wireguard under the hood, but the key generation and routing are all done automatically using LAN discovery or by connecting to peers on the network. I've tested out other overlay netw, rks like tinc and cjdns, but yggdasil has been the most reliable of the bunch. Its nice because the host key is used to derive an ipv6 address that can be physically relocated without doing any manual route changes.

I used to run a bunch of services over yggdrasil, but I had some economic struggles for a while and I had to delete most of it. I'll bring it back at some point though, this time with even more yggdrasil.

Maria has been working non stop for as long as I've known her.

So what? That's only slightly above the minimum bar for being a political activist. She could have shown up to the meeting, or is her critique worth so little that she can't even back it up with a little eye contact?
