It seems to me that if you end up adjacent to an operation that exposes you to certain technologies, you will be harassed and attacked with covert directed-energy weapons until you are suicided or institutionalized and discredited.

Yeah, this most certainly isn't happening.

“will be” is too strong.

That's just schizobabble / TI bullshit (not saying their suffering is not true and worthy of empathy).

We've drifted pretty far from the Constitution and what the Founders envisioned.

The reinterpretation of the Commerce Clause was the start of a downward spiral.

I'm hoping the Convention of States will succeed and fix this, even if it means rebuilding many institutions at the State level.

Amendments proposed by a convention would still need to be ratified by 38 states. That's a pretty high bar for what you're suggesting.


I think it's more likely we'd see term limits and balanced budget amendments. Possibly even the power for states to override federal laws, with a supermajority.

I'd like to see other things, like the commerce clause returning to its original meaning, but like you said, it's already a high bar.


>the Convention of States

when will that happen?


When at least 34 states call for a constitutional convention. Potentially as early as this year if at least 15 of the 21 states with proposed legislation enact the laws which call for a convention (currently 19 states have enacted laws which call for a convention). Thirty-eight states would need to ratify any proposed amendments.

Tor doesn't protect against traffic correlation last I checked.

Mixnets/Nym are better for actual privacy.

(I've not audited Nym, not an endorsement)


Tor over DAITA? Especially with multihop over multiple non-cooperating legislators.



> To rule out if it was a coding error, I tried to decompress the gzip file with bash via gzip -dc file. bash threw a strange error, “can’t seek file descriptor” when trying to read the file. This error is emitted from bash.c here.

Unless I am reading this wrong, the error would have been emitted by gzip, not bash. There is no redirection or anything here, bash is not even aware of that file.


BPC-157 is the only thing that helped me with my debilitating tendinitis. It was definitely worth it for me, nothing else worked.


They had warships when the 2A was written, some of which were privately owned.

They also had things like the puckle gun and the founders were aware of advancing weaponry.


Hmm maybe they'll add something later. It does have smartcard support, so that may be one approach.


The product page does not completely agree with all of these tech specs:

I just went ahead and placed my order anyways. :)


It seems like you're proving his point.
