I got a pixel 9 for $240 CAD via carrier promotion in Canada.

I held out getting a new phone as long as I could and they offered a new pixel 9 for $5 per month for 24 months

Not to trade in after 24.

It's mine. For 5$ a month.

When I received it I didn't turn it on for a week.

Read as much as I could to decide that Google would only ever see the single boot to enable developer mode and enable OEM unlock to flash graphenos.

It seemed intimidating, but the process to install is very smooth.

The guy who funded frump in 2016 and 2024, who hand picked and funded Vance for VP, and controls all the data and knowledge within the data sets of every single law enforcement, investigation, defense, social service, finance, tax, and security agency in the US, and owns several members of congress, also has stock in palantir because he is palantir.

Hi Petey!

Remember how the story ended - those who thought they could rule by knowing all and controlling all, through fear and force, were destroyed - by those with will and wisdom.

Please post the entirety of your online history.

Surely there's no reason to hide.

Whether what you've done is entirely legal (or not) authoritariaism doesn't care.

What is done in a free society is punished by small men with anger control issues.

What you may find reasonable to say in a free society, could, under a government opposed to free expression, land you in el Segundo - without your wallet.

The gestapo hide their faces because they know what they do is wrong, and to hide from justice.

People who protest or simply appreciate privacy do so because they understand the potential for retribution and being disappeared.

There are like 8000 words on the travel advisory, which states: "take normal security precautions" with a green label seal of approval and cautions with several paragraphs and a bullet point list on ticks and insect bite prevention, weather, and washing your hands. What a lovely country!

Oh, and the risk of peaceful protests turning violent (lol), and risk of terrorism, and a link to an active shooter preparedness guide, 2 fucking sentences about lgbtq being "affected" by laws in some states, and then there's this Nazi papers please warning:

It actually says this on the travel advisory.

Proof of status

Authorities may request proof of legal status in the U.S. at any time. Be prepared to show evidence of your legal presence in the U.S.

(Since fucking when?)

But it's 2 👍 from the gov travel and tourism department.

Meanwhile : EXERCISE A HIGB DEGREE OF CAUTION WHEN YOU GO TO ....Netherlands?! Wtaf?

I've spoken with a few, and you are correct in that they dislike the current regime.

However, even more so, they hate the US and its role over the past half century in coups, regime change, the rise of authoritarian theocratic rule, and sanctioning the people to nothingness.

If the US could mind its own fucking business and stop overthrowing democratic leaders in the name of oil and perpetual warfare, that'd be great.

Summary:

US sends decoy stealth bombers that are easily tracked to deploy bunker busters but only uses them on one site and busting no bunkers.

Iran lets US waste billions, reveal strategic manoeuvering and weapons capabilities, provoking further anger around the globe against the evil empire, to bomb what are essentially decoy nuclear sites previously emptied of fissile materials while likely maintaining other unknown sites.

Israel says it set back Iran by 2 years before the bombing. Israel says it set Iran back 2 years after the bombing.

Trump: Everything was obliterated.

Intelligence agency reports: The attacks barely scratched the surface. Iran could produce nukes in a month.

Trump says he is right, and the spooks are wrong.

We have always been at war with ~~Eurasia~~ ~~Eastasia~~ Persia.

And which nation is the only one that actually has used them? (On civilians, no less)

And how many treaties have the us violated ?

Daily.

If there is no due process for immigrants, there is no due process for anyone.

If there is no due process there is no law.

Where there is no law there is only force.

The supreme court has declared themselves, and every other person, be given no due process to deport.

What will come should not surprise anyone.

What will come can only be met with equivalent response.

The US of A is a failed state.

I've had the unload flag enabled in about: config for months.

Haven't used the update yet but there are several related flags to change the appearance and behavior of unloaded tabs in there as well.

Tab groups are another thing I was using for a while, they still hide some flags to enable some options. Again, there are some neat flags associated with this in about: config.

There are also some hidden peefs for backing up your data that would be cool if they pushed them.

Sometimes it fewls lkke I probably spend more time tweaking flags than I do using the browser.

I use the release version, not nightly or developer. But you can usually find some future features in there. Some good, some not. YMMV.

As always - Use caution.

While this news is both expected and unsettling, I'm pretty keen on how our gov has this info available to the public.

And the site itself - such a vast resource for security info, tools, etc.

Not all of our gov nor all departments are something to behold, but our cyber teams are top notch.

And holy shit:
