I would double check that. I specifically remember someone stating that blacksky is for Black ppl only and there were alt instances that were for non-Black users.

These politicians know the second they try ordering local cops to intervene with ICE, that's the exact moment they see their police join with ice and jump EVERYBODY... So, naturally, they're quiet af away from the podium.

under pritzker's watch. if he doesn't just WANT this (if) the only conclusion is politicians are more afraid of "their own" cops than of the executive branch or of their constituents. this is obviously unsustainable

A small number of demonstrators attempted to protest/march in the street.

Massive number of ISP troopers in riot gear responded by blocking 25th, threatening arrest, shouting into megaphone about an unlawful assembly.

Sometimes I wonder if the whole "em dash is AI" scare made people think I wrote my books with AI. (cause I love me a good em dash)

But then, I remembered I'm OK with you not reading my books if you're that dumb.

My tank is on E most days and an internet full of bots and anti-Blackness on multiple levels doesn't help in the slightest.

All I have left is my art and a cabal of streaming services and AI bros arguing that I should never be able to make a living off of it...while they make a living off of it.

At this point...just install Linux and be done with it. It's not as hard as it seems and there's likely a way to get any app you need running on it. I promise you, it's not worth it anymore...

#Windows #Windows11 #Microsoft #Linux #Ubuntu

Take a look --> ubuntu.com/desktop/flav...

Microsoft blocks bypass to skip Microsoft Account during setup on Windows 11

Microsoft locks down Windows 11 setup, no more easy bypasses for local accounts.

Masto instances run by Black-friendly mods would solve all the dumb shit ppl are complaining about here AND there, but then again this place is full of ignorant takes on the platform that ppl keep parroting, so I have little to no faith ppl will ever find what they claim they want.
