Linux liberates.
Linux does not obey in advance.
Linux is the "Find Out"

Trump's people are again in open defiance of the courts. He is steering Americans toward a violent confrontation.
NEW: Judge Immergut - a trump appointee - has called an emergency hearing tonight because the administration appears to have tried to circumvent her order by calling in the California guard after she blocked the Oregon guard deployment with a temporary restraining order yesterday. 1/

Whoa! Interest in Linux with censorship circumvention tools is off the charts. Heavy interest in MOFO Linux this week.

There are a thousand ways to evade the suppression of their locations. Think like a hacker: people are posting locations as traffic hazards, with code words, like "icy" and "unplowed" roads.

Information moves as does heat. You cannot put it back after you burn the fuel...
One first step people should do to respond to this is start using the “report a speed trap” function in Apple Maps to report where ICE is operating. Make Apple party to the attempt to protect people.
ICEBlock Owner After Apple Removes App: ‘We Are Determined to Fight This’

There is no remedy for cowardice and self-censorship.

Do yourselves a favor and stop using Apple and Google devices. There are plenty of top notch phones and tablets running Android Open Source (AOSP) and Linux.
BREAKING: Apple has REMOVED the ICEBlock app from the App Store due to “objectionable content.” More billionaires bending the knee.

One of the reasons Linux rocks is that it is NOT subject to market concentration. There is a universe of distros and apps, so you can find the right ones for what you want to do. I tried it because it could do cool wifi and audio stuff Windows could not or would not do. And fast too!
Five corporations control 90% of the US media market.

Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.

Four giants control 80% of meat processing.

A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry.

The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

Information wants to be free. The only way to stop it is to cut the cables. Banning fiber optic cables only slows it down. People can still have broadband neighborhood networks with tools like #reticulum.

Taliban’s ban on fiber optic internet in Balkh and nine provinces sparks outrage. CPJ urges immediate restoration to protect press freedom in Afghanistan.

MOFO Linux is about exploiting technological weaknesses in censorship to access and share information - social media, forums, broadcasts, chat groups, et cetera. But there is no solution to fix cowardice, capitulation, and self-censorship.

MAGA must be contortionists, to bend and twist like that. But always, always spewing bullshit.

Yep. The internet remembers forever. Except for the dead internet, which loses data on its own time.

There is a whole cottage industry of social media scrapers which delight in keeping posts folks try to delete and deny.
Pro tip to Laura Loomer who deleted this: The Internet is written in indelible ink.

This might be my favorite Linkarzu video. Not all about Linux, Vim, Emacs and stuff. Very much about discovery of ways to fix your life and not fall for bullshit from grifters and enablers.

I catch these Emptywheel Fridays too! This latest show was a bell ringer, covering the press conference of Epstein survivors and the RFK jr fiasco.

This shows just how good Vanilla OS works. Pick from a VAST selection of apps in multiple Linux distros, running at native performance. On a nearly unbreakable image-based host.
Vanilla OS is an Immutable Linux Distro. It supports A/B booting which guarantees atomicity. It also supports rollback and sandboxed apps via Flatpak. Plus, parts of the core file system are mounted read-only, so you can't delete key system files: youtu.be/GEQl6HPn2ic

Catbird Linux is blowing up this week, going from several tens of downloads per week to six hundred or so. Someone big must be giving it some attention.

You can tell these two -
@nicolesandler.bsky.social
@emptywheel.bsky.social
- actually enjoy putting together these Friday shows. They keep a keen eye on the legal fuckery MAGA world is trying to use against us and how our democracy might (or not) be defended from it.

Lotsa RFK fuckery this week.
It's another Emptywheel Friday when Marcy Wheeler @emptywheel.bsky.social and I recap as much of the important news of the week to help keep you informed as we can fit in. Join us today at 3ET/noon PT at youtu.be/DJYD3l8GTUk, nicolesandler.com, pod later, emptywheel.net, nicolesandler.substack.com

This one definitely saved mine. 💚

The whole concept of MOFO Linux is to recognize that media bubbles are a flawed invention. All censorship barriers are permeable and can be breached with the proper tools.

Groberg tackled a suicide bomber in 2012, putting himself in mortal danger to save others. He survived. WTF is wrong with Laura Loomer? She cannot imagine, much less respect, that kind of courage.
Laura Loomer is attacking Flo Groberg for being the wrong kind of Medal of Honor recipient—he’s a French-Algerian immigrant—and suggesting the Army posting about him today is an act of disloyalty to Trump.

…The Army posted about Flo today because 8/8/2012 was the day he tackled that suicide bomber.

WTF kind of person tells stressed out, unhappy, newly jobless people to talk it over with an AI machine? Try that with Grok and MFs will be offing themselves at a terrible rate.

What helped me was networking with former colleagues, going out for interviews, and having a deep belief in my own worth.
