Pretty sure stumbling on upon Lemmy’s founder’s manifesto repo put me on a watch list.
I found myself making this face:
This guy?
I don’t remember the user name, but if they have a git repo full of homemade Stalinist manifestos, then that’s the person.
Found it. Yeah, same guy: https://github.com/dessalines
I found their username through Lemmy’s Wikipedia article.
I’ve been on the internet for like 30 years now, this isn’t even in my top 10. Honestly I feel more at home with colorful folks anyway so, shrug.
I don’t get people who leave their web/phone cameras uncovered. Stickers aren’t just for kids yo.
I WFH and got a new laptop from work. I immediately put tape over the camera.
Internal IT reached out and said I had to uncover it. I asked why. they said because they run software that takes snapshots of the camera to ensure I’m the one using the system.
I complied. 👺
I have a standing desk and a ceiling mounted TV as a monitor. kept the new laptop on the desk and a keyboard on the standing part and worked from my TV for a week. it was a hot week. I didn’t wear pants…or underwear or clothes.
they had a weeks worth of saggy sweaty ball pics. IT reached out, awkwardly. “Hey uh…is something wrong?” I play dumb “IDK, is there something wrong?” Silence then, “BTW we talked it over with HR, you can cover your camera.” enthusiastically “Really? Oh man, I appreciate it. My office gets really hot and I don’t want to make anyone uncomfortable. Thanks for clearing this up for me!”
I have never heard anything else since that day. I mean, what are they going to do? Fire me for inappropriate behavior…in my home?
fuck em. got what I wanted.
I don’t believe a word of it, but it sounds funny. So thanks for the story.
That’s fucking amazing man lmao you are an icon
Seriously. I have a post-it note (just the adhesive strip) over my laptop camera, both work and personal devices.
The work laptop is obvious, company provided laptop with uninstallable software for remote administration that allows full remote control of the machine.
The personal laptop that runs Linux… tinfoil can be quite stylish as headwear when done correctly.
I use foil backed sticky gem stones over the front facing cameras on my phone and tablet and iridescent foil star stickers on the back cameras and on my laptop. My tinfoil hat is gay, lmao.
Damn kids and your foil backed gem stones and the like, why back in my day all we had was post-it notes, and we were damn glad to have them!
i leave my webcams uncovered so that anyone dumb enough to hack in gets a good look at my stiff nethers.
You do you…in what ever way you wish to take that.
my personal fbi agent is my favorite fan. always there for me.
Fan By Internet.
I read an article a few years back about Mein Kampf and I decided I wanted to read it for myself (for the record, I’m not a nazi or a Hitler supporter - fuck off Kanye). I grabbed a copy at Barnes & Noble but there was a cute girl working the cash register and I just couldn’t bring myself to go through with the purchase. It’s available online but there’s no way I’m going to do that - my Youtube suggestions are bad enough as it is.
Later on I read about Hitler’s second book and I was like c’mon, there’s no fucking way I’m asking for the sequel to Mein Kampf.
My brother in Christ, have you not heard of the fucking library?
The women who work there are also cute - and I drive some of their children to school every day. They are like the last people in the world that I would want to see me with a copy of Mein Kampf.
Pirate that shit, lmao
man, i read sooo many manifestos
Is there like a manifesto website or something? I guess this is that moment I realize I had never searched for them
i bet it’s probably something like manifestos.org
Hmm, appears to be for sale. How many manifestos do you have laying around from previous reads?
me? oh man, i’ve got manifestos for days. ‘manifesto bill’ they call me, and my name isn’t even bill. so what do you need? a communist manifesto? an anti-industrialist manifesto? we’ve got manifestos for everyone! all my manifestos must go! buy my manifestos!
I want a manifesto about how squirrels secretly run the government please.
that’s just nuts, man. you don’t even have to pay me.
It seems manifests are your destiny
Me: stumbling on Nutomic’s manifesto
My FBI Agent: “pfft wOkE cOmMiE. Although I agree about the part where he mentions Transgender people”
How is it that manifestos are either the ramblings of a lunatic or the most heart wrenching, poignant text you’ve ever read?
I remember reading Willem Van Spronsen’s manifesto days after he got shot while firebombing ICE busses. I remember how I cried, read it again, cried again. He saw the writing on the wall, and took action. Godspeed!
There’s wrong and there’s right.
It’s time to take action against the forces of evil.Evil says one life is worth less than another.
Evil says the flow of commerce is our purpose here.
Evil says concentration camps for folks deemed lesser are necessary.
The handmaid of evil says the concentration camps should be more humane.
Beware the centrist.I have a father’s broken heart
I have a broken down body
And I have an unshakable abhorrence for injustice
That is what brings me here.
This is my clear opportunity to try to make a difference, I’d be an ingrate to be waiting for a more obvious invitation.made me lol 👍
👍
