On the way back from school, they're caught in the crossfire of a drive by shooting. David's mom is in the hospital, and David is stuck with the bill. Also, he's locked out of the apartment because the rent is late.

David's mom is a paramedic and was at the scene with the cyberspycho.

David's bootleg gear is infected with a virus and brings down the school network. They're now on the hook for 10x as much as the upgrade would have cost.

Show thread

A VR recording of the fight is stolen, and our boy, David, is enjoying (?) the experience.

David argues with his mother about an upgrade he needs for school. He says Doc has hooked him up. She wants him to buy it legitimately.

We open on a cyberpsycho slaughtering cops. His enhanced spine gives him outrageous reflexes and speed, but even that can't save him when police hackers disable his systems. The cops provide enough firepower to get past his defenses and kill him.

The last two installments of _Ghost in the Shell_ forgot what they were doing. Maybe a TTRPG can pick up the flag and run with it.

@sim @Hyolobrika sarah jeong worked for Vice Motherboard. She came to us and asked to create an account on SPC, we got an anonymous tip to look out. We modified SPC to look like a social justice instance and LARPed for like a week so any screenshots of the site wouldn't fit the narrative. Anyway, right about then she left Vice to get a job as a technology editor for the New York Times, and never came back.

If I were nginx, I would simply handle more connections.

Fedi is the most strange thing in the world.

On normal social media, you write a message and people just ignore it forever.

Here, you write a message, it stays ignored for 1 or 2 years, and then all of a sudden, for no reason, with no explanation, someone finds it somehow, boosts it, and it gets 200 likes and 120 boosts.

What the fuck.

I'm sure someone will boost this message in 2021 or 2022.

european z-lib domains being targeted by the FBI because the USA thinks they're the world police regarding all things copyright and whatnot is the biggest fucking red flag anyone seems to be missing

jesus FUCKING christ can we stop letting america define what things in europe can and cannot exist?

the site has reference to american federal law codes, im european, I DO NOT FUCKING CARE, your laws are your laws, come at european registrars with european warrants

As far as I can tell, if one's server here disappears (or is compromised), that's pretty much it for your account, your follows, your followers, and your message history.

That seems like the opposite of how a distributed system should behave (but very close to Lamport's whimsical definition).

Perhaps there could/should be a way for users to mirror their accounts to an unrelated backup server?

Lol, journa.host has made it into the #fediblock feed. They're up 16 rejections so far: fba.ryona.agency/?domain=journ

I especially love those promoting #Fediblock while having things like "advocate for free and open society" in their bios.

Here is a list of all the servers that ignorantly block NAS after we were added to "the list" back in like 2017: fba.ryona.agency/?domain=noage (archive.ph/DaZ8n)

+30 since Sept.

#neverforget that one time that some dipshit called another dipshit a dipshit.

Everyone on Twitter is talking about Twitter.

Everyone on Fediverse is talking about Twitter Refugees and/or Carpetbaggers.

Can we bring the cyber- prefix back?

I've been telling people I have a "virtual meditation retreat" today, but I'd rather say I'll be doing [[cybermeditation]].
