yesterday's Trump/Musk interview would have been a big boost for Trump
I don't think Kamala can win. They might find a way to cancel the elections though and give her the presidency like they did with the candidacy.

Trump has said he will give control over education back to the States, which sounds very good

Nah, for this to happen they would need to refuse to compete en masse, and that is rather hard to achieve.
It will happen eventually but some girl will need to get beaten to death first I guess.

Linux is at a level of maturity where it can easily be a safe replacement for windows.
More ppl should use it. I stopped dual-booting many years ago... when I stooped playing Warcraft ;)

Musk is no hero, unfortunately. He's just branding, hoping to build 'the one app'

we may also get some indirect proof about the relevance of elections, if the coming one is cancelled 'due to a cyberattack'

If elections are useful for endorsing the system and are no threat, they will not get cancelled.

That's fair. The approach is too puritanical to be practical, in my eyes, but I respect it.
In the UK election. I will not vote as it is pointless. In the US I would vote. It will very likely be easier to build a btc based parallel economy which we need under Kennedy or Trump as opposed to any version of Biden.
Votes are anonymous and as such whether you voted and how is only known to you. My vote does not mean I agree with anything, it is a gamble, a bet that one version of govt will be more helpful on the way to divorcing the state than another.

I'm inclined to think voting for whomever is most aligned with our goals is more likely to help achieve them than not voting and hoping that will make a difference.
I vote with the clear understanding that the one I vote for will not fix things and we still need to create an alternative system and abandon the current.
There will come a point where voting in its current form will become redundant but we are not there yet.

"If we wanted to beat Russia we would have beaten them by now."

There is a pollution problem. There is some global warming. These should be addressed with rational measures which have been thoroughly considered.
There is no climate emergency, in spite of that abundant propaganda claiming so.

Disagree. Increasing access to information through literacy reduces indoctrination and is a prerequisite for learning critical thinking.

Make sure you install a gallery app, something to replace the default media manager. I accidentaly deleted my whole camera album twice because the default app will delete full folders recursively without a warning.

Lol, is there any type of evidence that you would accept? They tried to find faults in the study for 7 months and failed.
I am sure you know all about confirmation bias.
I am done wasting time talking to you.

A peer reviewed study finds hundreds of thousands were likely killed by the covid jab.

Trouble is, once you make an application censurable, it is open to just that. We have seen the state grossly abuse its power in that regard during covid and many other cases.
That is the same state which funds intelligence services and permits them to enable the very same horrific abuse of kids which you rightly are disgusted by. Remember Epstein and if that is not enough, read Whitney Webb's "A nation under blackmail"
Blocking free speech because some may abuse it is not a solution. If you say it is, then you should next ban cars and every other tech which can be used for evil purposes. That includes the ability to censure, as together with propaganda it is used to brainwash people and enable wars with all the horrors these entail.

You underestimate people's need for free speech. Session is a case study that has been about for a while. You get nasty stuff there too, worse than i have ever seen here, but the community is good and growing. Nasty stuff is a rare exception.
The problem here, at least using amethyst and iris clients, is theoretical more than a pressing issue. NSFW content is marked so and easy to ignore.

If I see stuff I don't want to see I mute the note or block the person depending on how bad it is. I don't leave the platform.
On the contrary, it speaks wellforr the platform's privacy any censorship resistance so in a way the presence of bad content which I can block makes me like the platform more.

Depending on the topic of the search, I use Brave or an anonymised google one like dudcduckgo or start page.
If you are after a 'how to' of come type, google will give you more.
If you are after something politically 'incorrect', Brave will give you less filtered results. I tried it now with 'climate change hoax'.
I default to Brave.

Valid point, but doesn't take into account that the US has killed american citizens extrajudicially as well, in drone attacks.
Also snipers on rooftops during protests reminds of the (likely US) op during the Maidan protests in Ukraine. Not to blame the US in the case of Iran ofcourse, they would have very much backed these protests I'd expect.

I am not sure protests are the solution because they are easily hijacked and made to deliver oppression instead of freedom.
The best way to fight evil is to make energetic progress in something good - which in this case would be to just ignore the bad laws. If people just refused to comply with lockdowns there would be nothing to protest about.
It all comes down to information access, the war is on for our minds. Which is why Assange is in prison.
