panic is probably best in homeopathic doses

now, more seriously, arguing sucks, the stress of confrontation is unpleasant. crying is something that may or may not help in such situations (some people will respond favorably to it), but even when it detracts from your position (it shouldn't, it would be fallacious, but it could), it's hardly the only way to defeat oneself in a confrontation. I have found out numerous other ways ;-) :-(

https://www.fsfla.org/~lxoliva/#Unshittify now has video of my speech at LibrePlanet
Software Enshittification or Freedom? It's not a hard choice!
the FSF has published the LibrePlanet videos
https://www.fsf.org/blogs/community/watch-enjoy-share-the-libreplanet-cultivating-community-videos
note the call for new associate members at the top of the page. the Free Software Movement would greatly benefit from your supporting the FSF, by volunteering, donating, becoming a member, and encouraging others to do so, and from the FSF's having more resources to campaign and fight for our freedom.

> I feel threatened, humiliated, demoralized, and then I'm hit by depression.
... when injustice is imposed on me (I've just realized what I wrote could be misunderstood as if I felt this way because of your response; that was not the case) @cnx

please don't tell me to minimize or disregard my feelings when injustice is imposed on me, it's useless and insulting. it's not like I can decide not to feel that way, my brain is not wired like that. that's part of what makes it an accessibility issue.
I feel threatened, humiliated, demoralized, and then I'm hit by depression.
I liken your suggestion to telling a person who can't walk to get off the wheelchair and crawl up the stairs on the way to somewhere the person needs to be. sure, deciding whether or not to endure that humiliation is a choice, but there's general agreement that sparing wheelchair-bound users from it is an accessibility issue.
that my disability and neural constitution aren't so well understood doesn't entitle you to invalidate my feelings or my accessibility needs.

estranho estranharem isso. é tão comum ver gente "falando sozinha" na rua, usando headset sem fio pra falar ao celular...

that looks like generative LLM in response to "digital musical keyboard" :-)
it reminded me of the classic generated pictures of salmon in the river

you're probably not going to see this, but I wish to point out, for the record, that you're conflating my deep justice drive, that involves presumption of innocence, due process and more, with apologism of crime. crimes, no matter how horrifying they are portrayed to be, don't come into existence, and suspects don't become guilty, by fiat of an unfounded and highly dubious allegation, as you seem to believe. the supposed victims denied crimes, refused to press charges, submitted fake evidence that detracted from the case, and after interviewing the suspect the investigation concluded for the case to be archived. only after foreign political persecution mounted was the case reopened, and even then, there were no charges, and stonewalling for questioning. and then, once other political persecution reasons were lined up to keep the suspect in solitary confinement, was the initial made-up sexual excuse dropped.
allegations of sexual misconduct are so often used for political ends because a lot of people seem to have this bug of conflating how horrifying the crime is with how guilty the suspect is. that's why we need due process and presumption of innocence: to avoid serving injustice in supposed pursuit of justice, such as presuming crimes to have taken place without any evidence and with plenty of counter-evidence, presuming the suspect to be guilty of them, and presuming those who point out the counter-evidence to be apologists of crime

I was today years old when I realized that it was the person who registered craphound.com in 1998 that first caught the scent of enshittification some 25 years later. how cool is that? fate much? cc: @doctorow

is deadnaming corporations generally ok, or is it just that this conservative court is supremely disrespectful to such rights?

conveniente é, mas não acho divertido ter de baixar meus firewalls no navegador pra deixar o site rodar código desnecessário e inauditável que compromete a segurança do meu computador, tipo captchas e o próprio motor de interação do site , muito menos ter de ter uma tornozeleira eletrônica pra receber um seguríssimo SMS (é sarcasmo) pra confirmar a assinatura. podia e devia ser software livre. quisera eu poder registrar uma chave gpg e usá-la pra requisitar a certificação da minha assinatura digital, ou, ainda melhor, só solicitar uma assinatura validando minha chave. e pra quem faz questão de "ver a assinatura no papel", podia ter um programa *livre* que fizesse a verificação

hackermesse é um nome maravilhoso!

you are entitled to your opinion about me, of course, however based on bias-reinforcing propaganda it is. but the article I quoted is referenced in the very source of truth you suggested me to use. and the more damning article that was omitted from it was referenced in another direct reference. what kind of kafkaesque line of argumentation is this that you're pursuing?
Assange served time for the supposed espionage, that the judge found proportional to the supposed offense, how is that avoiding the justice system?
now, if you buy that nonsense about espionage, and think it was reasonable for the US to demand extradition over Assange's publishing damning but true information about the US, outside US jurisdiction, and to punish him for it, surely you'd be fine if e.g. Russia demanded your imprisonment, while visiting a foreign country, and extradition, for the things you have posted about Russia from the presumed safety and comfort of your home. does that analogous prosecution sound reasonable to you? of course it doesn't have to be just Russia: the same line of reasoning would apply to any other overreaching jurisdiction, and you'd be liable if you did anything that could harm their interests, even if you had no commitment, obligation, or expectation whatsoever to be loyal to them, or even reason to presume their expectations of your alignment. see the steaming mountain of imperial BS that case made up against Assange was?
-
did you even read what you disputed, or the supporting references in the document you pointed to me?
heck, why did you even start talking about rape? the US justice system had no jurisdiction, and no intent to charge him, over that. the US case was censorship vs freedom of the press, and Assange served time over that. what was the justice that you say he avoided, then?
