Yes.

It was anyway a lose-lose situation. I hope to see Brazil free from 'bolsopetismo'/'bolsolulismo' (as some of we call this disease to keep Bolsonaro and Lula or their parties on the presidential room) soon, but here we go for another 4 years...

Oh, seems it supports Grok now. Seems very interesting. Will give it a try. Thanks!

I've put mine inside `~/.agents/skills` and `ln`ed all `skills` folders that I could to point to them. It only doesn't work for Claude Desktop. But it works for grok, antigravity and cc CLIs (for some, at least partially).
If I am not mistaken, this type of jammer can severily affect people with pacemakers. But, as a Brazilian citizen, I can understand the feeling of being forced to listen other's people music.
Yes. If, unfortunately, I need to live in only one of two scenarios, i.e.:

1. I need to identify myself for everything on the internet because of said "hoaxes" and "hate speech";

2. I don't need to identify myself anywhere on the internet, and let go of said "hoaxes" and "hate speech", but can have the right of saying anything that I need to say without fearing for my safety and the safety of my relatives due to the government;

Then yes, I would prefer the second option without a blink. Unfortunately, for what we have seen in the last few decades, there is no intermediary option. The proverb is true: give them an inch, and they will take a mile.

The thing that most bothers me is that there seems to not exist a good solution for spaces that allows a grid set of spaces, like the one you can configure on Linux Gnome DE. That thing was so useful...
I should've asked in the OP, but what about if some create an instance on e.g. AWS, GCP outside of Brazil and connect to it using a personal Wireguard/OpenVPN. Would it help?

Ask HN: Could Brazil's Supreme Court IT team track VPN usage on X?

It's more of a technical question and maybe is a really noob one. Although the restriction on VPN apps in general was dropped, the fine for VPN usage on X is still up.Many people point out that this type of tracking would only be possible if VPN companies handled logs to the Supreme Court, others say that patterns on the VPN connections could be detected and then the access to X be uncovered,...
