tl;dr: police was searching for the users of a RiseUp.net mail address, then searched rooms of Zwiebelfreunde ("onion friends") club — which takes donations for (IBNLT) RiseUp — and Chaos Computer Club, and their members and relatives homes.

They also spotted a chemical formula and chemicals (for 3D printing, PCB etching, hair dying) on a whiteboard and took members into custody for suspicion of terrorist attack.

They also seized a thumb sized 3D printed "bomb", lol.

i am now a guy with organized photos

Looking for other sites like news.yc and lobste.rs

Any recommendations?

“I wanna be a concept.”

Why is it that the only things I can do with my potential seem to be:

0% - waste it
50% - live up to it
100% - unleash it

"Face-painting styles like “corpse” makeup also obscure the face. However, they don’t create enough contrast to effectively confuse most facial recognition systems"

so if you're into TRVE KVLT metal, you will still get recognized? bummer

amazing

According to Twitter user @tahkion, a computer science blogger for WonderHowTo, Juggalo makeup outmatches the machine learning algorithms that govern facial recognition technology.

they have no idea how magnets work, but can beat the police state

Got a huge laugh out of this comment this morning:

"I call the DC remote hands support line (call onsite family member), and have them perform a hard cutover ("go to back of the device with the antenna thingies, disconnect the BLUE cable and plug in the YELLOW cable")."

The description for this app starts off generic enough:

- Improve your mind
- Retrain thought patterns
- Achieve your goals
- Improve productivity
- Higher motivation
- Clear focus

Then goes into straight NOPE territory really fast:

"Mindset simply uses hypnosis to manipulate attention, language, and context in order to establish an alternate set of temporary beliefs, which then influence perception and behaviour."

speaking of, SuperDuper is another A+ tool

I like SuperDuper's pitch:

"We all know that using the Macintosh is usually a trouble-free experience.

<bold>Except when it's not.</bold>"

and i'm not using any of those

looks like it's somehow accessing nearly every 'power up' regardless of what i have turned on.

for example, uBlock is already blocking:

screenful.me
app.screenful.me
segment.com
cdn.segment.com
segment.io
api.segment.io
smartdraw.com
cloud.smartdraw.com
storage.googleapis.com
teamgantt.com
api.teamgantt.com
app.teamgantt.com
prod.teamgantt.com
trello.teamgantt.com
www.teamgantt.com
timecamp.com

Wow, uBlock blocks out 20% of Trello, or 189 requests.
