As long as it isn't the systemic living and working condition then we can just shutdown this so-called "discord" and maybe replace it with "harmony".

That's a far cry from
Plenty of other electronics that you have full control over.
mentioned in the first comment
As far as I can tell, Kobos are bootloader locked now https://old.reddit.com/r/kobo/comments/1ewadpc/kobo_is_now_using_secure_boot_on_at_least_one_of/
The raspberry pi has no low power modes / suspend states, to prevent it being used as a cell phone or tablet.The standalone eink display are also very expensive, more than a entire eink reader and there is very little choice and they cannot be harvested from a working device.
It's just matter of time before they're all locked down, even the bad ones from 2020.
Just like android where basically it's all bootloader locked, except for a few suspiciously special models like the Pixel. Or a "new" 1000$ model with hardware from 2018.
Instead of pretending there isn't a problem because there are still option, you should realize the WINDOW IS CLOSING
Plenty ? Really ? And what are those ?Four times the prices and from four years ago ?

The authorities want an homogeneous population, as they also have a limited ability to imagine the social sphere in multiple dimensions, this is why you're seeing things like the gender binaries. At least that's just two simulations to run. But gender as spectrum, this becomes quickly untenable for the elites to model for control, they wish the squash the real world complexity into flattened binaries or even uniformity.
Yes, I think you got it exactly right and the audio normalization analogy is correct, at least for sound nerds like us.
Hypernormalization is a dysfunctional response from elites due to their human cognitive weakness. This is why we're not going back to "King" no single human can bear the complexity of the entire world in their skull mush. They will melt down and genocide the Kurds when it gets too hard for them to conjugate everything. This is why dictators and fascism will do a lot of damage, but have no hope whatsoever for success. They are "rebellion from cognitive weakness", they violently lash out at complexity itself, at those things they cannot understand. They want to reduce everything to a simple narrative of us versus them and then destroy "them" so only a uniform homogeneous "us" remains. This "us" identical to the ruler, does not require the ruler to imagine "the other" instead they only rule as if everyone else was an identical copy of them. And if anyone disagrees with that, they are "other".
From that we know the "few" cannot rule the many, but then how do we avoid the traps of design by committee, bikeshedding and the various paralysis that come from complexity beyond human cognition. Concentrations of power are too dumb to rule, but the mob and the market are also dumb and easily fooled, not to mention irresponsible and self-destructive. (The market is burning the planet, right now, it cannot see into the future). The mob is emotional and easily manipulated, often by its own emotions.
I think we need new modes of thinking more advanced than what we had in the 1700s. Something invented with at least the idea of what a computer could do.
You'll probably want to watch the best documentary on the subject

I also recommend the following by the same author
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eJ3RzGoQC4sabout advertising and consumerism

0.18 to 0.08 is a gigantic difference, less than half the weight per cubic meter of displacement !!
Not only is cost an issue, but the larger the volume of displaced air, the bigger the dirigible, the harder it becomes to move through the atmosphere, more friction, more air resistance etc..
It's not even being collected at the source (natural gas deposits) because it's too cheap to be worth the extraction. This is because of the US liquidating its strategic reserve that it had been holding since the age of Zeppelins.
Also for unmanned aircraft, using helium instead of hydrogen is just crazy
First the NYPD is a sophisticated military and intelligence organization more than capable and engaged in the daily labour of neutralizing humans on the daily. Just because they also have lots of fat ticket maids doesn't mean they're not full of competent vicious persons that will stop at nothing to imagine crimes and find them.
As for the compromised secret police, their motives are quite similar but on top of that they have an even more corrupt leadership let loose on mongering fear and paranoia for its own prestige and establishing causes for intervention by their benefactor, the Trump administration.
Absolutely nothing, no information at all coming from these organizations can be assumed to be true or straight, even statement is a piece of propaganda craft designed to empower AI driven power and electoral narratives.
"100'000 SIM cards" wow that's really a big lot of nothing. A SIM card has not transmitter, you literally cannot do anything with it unless it were accepted by the network to begin with.
What they have is basically nothing more than 100'000 invalid login and passwords. And with eSIMs later are they going to claim to have stop a "potentially infinite" cyber attack ?
Their claims shouldn't be evaluates on their merits but on what manipulation are their lies trying to accomplish. What narrative they are trying to craft.
Why wouldn't the local police discover local criminal activity but a washington secret police would ?
Trump's Secret Police probably put the jammers or whatever they were, just to claim to have found them and therefore justify their ability to enter places like this and spy and infiltrate households, organizations, factories and everywhere else that Dear Leader pleases.
iPhone Goes Fully Cellular with Seamless, Always-On 5G
Cupertino, California, September 23, 2025
Today, Apple announced the next chapter in iPhone’s evolution by advancing the industry beyond legacy wireless standards. The new iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max eliminate Wi-Fi connectivity entirely, setting a new benchmark for simplicity, performance, and reliability.
“Every once in a while, a revolutionary product comes along that changes everything,” said Steve Jobs in 2007. “Today, we’re doing it again — by removing what no longer needs to be there.”For over two decades, Wi-Fi has served as a foundational technology for mobile devices. But with the emergence of advanced 5G and private cellular networks, the need for separate Wi-Fi radios has diminished, both in practice and in performance.
Apple’s proprietary connectivity architecture now delivers ultra-low latency, higher bandwidth, and seamless handoff across global 5G networks, supported by strategic partnerships with carriers and next-generation eSIM provisioning.
#Why Remove Wi-Fi?
In 99.9% of real-world user testing, cellular connectivity via 5G outperformed local Wi-Fi networks in speed, reliability, and latency. Removing the Wi-Fi module enables:
- A lighter, more power-efficient design
- Increased internal space for battery capacity
- Fewer components susceptible to wear or failure
- A streamlined, always-connected user experience
#Designed for the Future
The new iPhone is designed around the principle that users shouldn’t have to think about how they’re connected. There’s no more toggling between networks, managing passwords, or dealing with unreliable public Wi-Fi. Just uninterrupted access, anywhere.
To support this shift, Apple has introduced AppleConnect, a seamless global data experience available through iCloud+, integrating with over 270 carrier networks worldwide. For enterprises, AppleEdge offers private, secure, carrier-independent cellular environments replacing traditional Wi-Fi infrastructure.
“We’re not interested in being first, we’re interested in being right,” said Tim Cook, Apple CEO. “Removing Wi-Fi is a step toward a simpler, smarter, more connected future. This is where the industry is headed, we’re just getting there first.”
Transition and Compatibility
Apple understands that some workflows and environments may still depend on legacy Wi-Fi protocols. iPad, Mac, and other devices continue to support Wi-Fi, and developers are encouraged to adopt new APIs supporting AppleConnect for peer-to-peer and local communication.
Secret service ? Not the cops ?Is this some cover for the administration to further infiltrate communication systems ?We know them and how they operate...So most likely, what they've already done just now is installed selective communication blackout systemso they can shut down cellphone and internet at particular location,so their crimes are easier to sanitize after they've black bagged and disappeared the witnesses.
They will be mass culling from the population whoever can see through their schemes and hasn't become quiet already.If you have political conviction the message is clear, stop running your mouth or you will be neutralized from interfering

In hypernormalization, making SURE you know they ARE LYING and that IT DOESN'T MATTER is essential.Because the goal is to make you believe you can't do anything, so that you give up and demobilize that is their goal.
This will be illegal in the future, and dangerous not to have received the latest cultural infections.The police will have ways to know if you have not performed your memetic inoculationBy flashing certain patterns at you and observing your reaction with an AI facial expression analyzerThey will know you have not upheld your democractic duty to remain an informed citizenYou will be sanctionned for you dereliction of dutyand subjected to a memetic reification inoculationwhich is a kick and painless procedure where you are simply made to look at a screen for a certain period of time while restrained
Can they stop democracy getting in the way of profits for important people who buy their products ?
The FQDN is only a translation lookup between a human readable name and an IP address, it doesn't say anything about the trustworthiness of the content or its operators, it's just a name. DNS exists for convenience not establishing trust.
Such trashy boyband slop how does it sell at all, do koreans have no taste at all or are they that brainwashed ?
I got two of those for 100$ USD for the purpose of hosting openwrt in proxmox LXC containers. One thing I noticed is they have no cooling. I put a 10 GBe mellanox card in it plus a very low end radeon gpu and it gets quite hot in there. My recommendation, instead of trying to embiggen it as much as possible, by putting 2 more sticks of ram and the biggest cpu, I would recommend just buying another. The performance boost per dollar isn't as much as the performance capacity of a second, third or 4th machine.
Yes, those people are not serious at all, don't they know that Microsoft is anonymizing all the data. For any data point, they can't tell who or even where it was. Even the screenshots and audio recordings only have anonymous tracking IDs, they don't store date, or your exact name or any other metadata. They know how important privacy is to their users and that it would be crazy to use the automatic update system for anything other than installing security patches.
