There’s a timestamp at the top, this post is almost 10 years old.
People always seem to try and characterize 4chan as a homogenous userbase, but it’s possibly the only place on the internet where transphobic and trans-porn posts sit next to each other

CDs and DVDs have decent life spans unless you store them in a damp or warm environment, most likely better than flash storage. If they are old make a fresh copy and store it properly

Meshtastic/core is the cheapest hobby listed here by far, you can get a Heltec on AliExpress for like 20$ and it has no running costs. You also don’t need to be social, you can just lurk and help expand the network by being a repeater station :)
- Comment on “Is anyone out There?” - HamRadio 3 weeks ago:
There’s a whole new technological niche born in the space between the modern internet and old school AM/FM radio. AX.25, meshtastic, meshcore, reticulum, just to name a few. You are absolutely not alone in wanting to build a resilient, grassroots communication network that relies on good old radio waves from and to your antenna rather than 8 layers of “providers”.

So it’s closer to an ML shader than actual supersampling?

Wait, what is even the point of using an upscaling technology if it makes your game run slower than without it? Why wouldn’t I just run native res at that point? Is their only point that “it looks better” in their minds?
- Comment on Why do a lot of frozen salmon thawing instructions say to remove the salmon from the individual wrappers before thawing? 4 weeks ago:
Can’t say I’ve heard the term before, no. Also not something I recall experiencing, I usually close bags with a clip or elastic band and most of the time they don’t last for more than a couple of meals anyway, but I can see how that could happen if you have family-sized ones
- Comment on Why do a lot of frozen salmon thawing instructions say to remove the salmon from the individual wrappers before thawing? 4 weeks ago:
I have lived my whole life without seeing single wrappers or worrying about “freezer burn”. Do you mean feeling cold when you touch something that’s cold? Even when pouring a liquor that’s been in the freezer it hurts in the moment but it’s nowhere near an actual burn
- Comment on Why do a lot of frozen salmon thawing instructions say to remove the salmon from the individual wrappers before thawing? 4 weeks ago:
Why would something deep frozen need to be wrapped in individual plastic wraps?

Unticking legitimate interest is a dark pattern made to waste your time. That toggle is literally pointless since it doesn’t involve consent, the only way to stop “legitimate interest” brokers is to sue them and demonstrate they do not in fact have it
- Comment on So Austistici/Inventati just got designated as a "global terrorist organisation" by the Trump administration, what do I do now? 4 weeks ago:
.org is administered by Identity Digital and they are obligated to comply with terror sanctions. The US is embedded at virtually every level of the internet infrastructure and with the magic weapon of “sanctions” can force almost everyone else from providing services to any entity
- Comment on So Austistici/Inventati just got designated as a "global terrorist organisation" by the Trump administration, what do I do now? 4 weeks ago:
Functionally equivalent most of the time, especially with some services like email even if your servers are running it doesn’t really matter if neither users nor senders can reach them.
In any case, this is not just a DNS censor, it’s the full hammer of US “terror”-based sanctions. Their bank accounts are being frozen as Italian banks must comply, they can’t get certificates, hosting contracts with most of the world, and so on. It’s bad

The difference here seems to be that they explicitly know what their “customers” are doing (e.g. terrorism/energy infrastructure sabotage) and allow/endorse that.
Congratulations, you drank the propaganda. They do not explicitly know what their customers are doing, because they believe in privacy and everything is encrypted. What they explicitly know is that their “customers” are not capitalists, racists, fascists, sexists, militarists, or authoritarians because they ask during registration. It is not the duty nor the right of a service provider to ensure how its users use their platform, contrary to what you have been told for decades to justify surveillance. It’s not a hard concept: either criminals can get privacy too, or no one can. Sure preventing terrorist attacks is something no one can oppose, but just like that you also silence every journalist, activist and whistleblower that just wants a secure service without Uncle Sam’s hands in it
