You can't beat the US military, itself.

We literally have caches of munitions and equipment in ice caves and various other places throughout the world. - A ride to the hospital costs $5,000 and is not covered by taxes/govt. College isnt covered. We have minimal pensions or worker support. Et cetera.

All the public money that could go to social needs goes to violence.

And we're good at it.

You have to go after leadership (not a threat from me or a call to violence). The think tanks, the political apparatus, the corporations that profit from war efforts, the billionaire oligarchs.

The "vote them out" stage is in one year and we have no idea if we'll even have a means to democratically transfer power.

You are in it now. There is no waiting. Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy, North Korea, Oligarch Russia - if you've ever asked yourself what you would do in those times and places... you are doing it right now.

If you have means and power, sort out ways to counter the current regime's leadership and initiatives.

If you don't have that power and are just a "normal
person with a family and job", then actively join and build Community and Mutual Aid in your neighborhood. You need to feed each other. Shelter each other. Care for each other's kids. Actively take care of each other. This isn't kumbaya woo-woo feel-good shit. This is removing the threat they have over our heads.

No one wants to and many can't fight back because we are all wage slaves who cant afford not to work for capitalist corporations that fund the war effort.

So build apparatus that lets us get out from under the capitalist boot. Build it. Now. Right at your doorstep. Go... GO!

Jaana was a distinguished engineer at GitHub and is now a principal engineer at Google. I expect to see more testimonials from accomplished software engineers in 2026 about how AI agents are making them more productive.

Engineers posting about how AI tools don’t work will increasingly look like a skill issue than a problem with AI tools.

Hi!

Jennifer Hamilton here, formerly of med-mastodon.com. That server shut down suddenly. If you followed me before for my toots about , , , my gripes about , or even just a few pictures and chats about bicycling, I'm on mstdn.science now.

The old went down suddenly in the last week of December 2025, and I don't have a list of my old followers. Please boost this so they can find me!

Blaise, a tuxedo cat with a white stripe down his nose, peers at the world from under a pile of bedclothes. He seems dubious about the whole "new day every day" thing.

Let’s say a group of people in my state are dedicated to ~~enacting revolution~~ peacefully protesting. We live ~2,500 miles from Washington DC. It’s about the same distance from Ireland to DC. What the fuck am I gonna do. I hate this shit but I feel completely powerless and hopeless that anything can be done

I'm always depressed that they find willing henchmen to carry out their inhumane orders.

But then, there are always companies willing to sell soft- and hardware to the fascists, and jump through lots and lots of regulatory hoops to prove that they are willing to comply.

The banality of evil.

요즘 서구 웹 일각에서 00년대 인터넷의 느낌으로 돌아가려 하는 "indie web" 트렌드가 보이고 있네요. html 직접 편집해서 gif 이미지와 동맹배너 등으로 가득한 옛날 느낌의 개인 웹사이트를 만드는 게 소소하게 유행 중입니다. 이를 위한 전용 호스팅 서비스도 생겼더군요. neocities.org 이름에서 기시감 느끼는 분들 있을 텐데, 맞습니다. 그 시절 서구 웹 호스팅의 대명사였던 GeoCities의 패러디입니다. 우리나라로 치면 카페24 같은 곳.

Short one about my progress so far on guile-horton: terracrypt.net/posts/decadv-ho

Haven't gotten as far with this as I would have liked, because I've gotten myself a bit stuck in troubleshooting mode. Knew this could happen though; this is an old project (relatively speaking) that I figured might be difficult to bring up to date. Getting there though, slowly but surely!

I love how all the kids these days use “slop” to refer to any generative AI content, and the CEOs of companies who have placed big bets on AI are trying to do damage control because associating “slop” with AI is hurting their brands. 🍿

The US will take a “tremendous amount of wealth out of the ground”, which he said will go to Venezuelans and the US “in the form of reimbursement for the damages caused us by that country.”

US oil companies will go into Venezuela, “spend billions of dollars, fix the badly broken infrastructure, the oil infrastructure, and start making money for the country.”

CBC News world live is having a good panel right now. Talking about whether this threatens Canadian sovereignty in an even bigger way…

Last input from the panel from a reporter out of Alberta, Canada is not under direct threat…. But Mexico probably is given Trump’s comments today.

This is not how I wanted 2026 to start, but unlike 2024 and 2025 which started variously bad for various reasons… 2026 has started in a bad, but very predictable, way.

Secretary of State Rubio says the government of Cuba should be “concerned” following US military strikes on Venezuela.

Earlier, Trump ​indicated that ‍Cuba could become a topic ‍of ⁠discussion as part of broader US policy ​in ‌the region, highlighting the potential for Washington ‌to ‌expand its focus ⁠beyond Venezuela amid rising tensions ‌in Latin America.

@WtebbensWouter Tebbens ⁂ @_elenaElena Rossini ⁂ @pluralisticCory Doctorow @coopcloud Seems interesting. But I don't see any current updates. Anyhow if you'd like to chat. I'm every time glad to receive tipps :)

Yes. sets up the whole server with a for all apps, encryption, certificate and domain management. One script to to rule them all. I think my solution is the most advanced solution in this field.

...just need to somehow make money with it now... Need to pay my bills ;D

@kevinveenbirkenbach @WtebbensWouter Tebbens ⁂ @_elenaElena Rossini ⁂ @pluralisticCory Doctorow @coopcloud co-op cloud is constantly worked on and has an active community, we even had a meetup at 39C3.
Regarding a one script for all solution, you could look at kollicloud from Local-IT. It is built upon coop cloud, preselected set of apps with SSO. git.local-it.org/local-it/koll
