The US was tested for tyranny during Covid, election interference, and BLM burning down cities. You sat at home, utterly impotent. You're gonna stop VPN bans? Please.

Your weak mindedness shouldn’t affect what others learn/read. Go for walk, get a hobby offline etc.
Yes isn’t it wonderful. Coming to all ‘smart’ devices including dumb televisions. Bypassing networks has never been such wow.

Incorrect inputs and it will. Double-checking source numbers and correct key presses was commonplace.

Rich California types have been instructed that it was a Sieg Heil, or be banish from the hive. It’s super important to mention it when discussing owning a Tesla.

Did the Hive approve this, or are you breaking the rules of individualism?

Apps like https://overseerr.dev make it incredibly simple for household members to request content.

Unless you use BW every minute of every day, including when you sleep, then you’re in no position to counter self-hosting with your anecdote.
