Tbf I think it’s just a generalized term for anything like that, including egg salad, macaroni salad, any of those “‘salad’ but it’s really just shit mixed with mayo and served cold” type dishes. No I don’t have more examples because I hate them all.

You can find videos of archers having fun at a range, why does that not cause school archings? You can find videos of drunk ass axe throwers having fun at axe throwing places, does axe culture inspire school axings? Fun doesn’t cause crime, the crime is caused by deep socioeconomic issues that can’t be solved by stopping fun. And fun != irresponsible without your painting it as “fun causes school shootings” especially when you differentiate it from stupidity yourself.

Your study doesn’t actually account for the fact that most school shooters, being unable to legally purchase firearms, steal them from their parents, and therefore it’s more likely by default that their parents are “gun culture” people by virtue of owning guns. That still doesn’t mean their kids stealing their guns to commit murder is “gun culture.” Causation != correlation and such.

Your second study basically says “the more guns around the higher likelihood someone can steal one.” Sure, but places with more permissive alcohol laws also have more drunk drivers, should we ban alcohol?

If you ever talked to anyone actually “in the gun culture” (a phrase that is still laughable to me as if it were a real thing), you’d learn safety is paramount, that they are not toys. This is what you’re saying is responsible for school shootings because they’re treating them like toys? Sure lol. Another example of the basic safety rules from a guy responsible for school shootings, clearly you can hear him saying “play with them wantonly” right there, huh? How bout this guy? Clearly, “gun culture” doesn’t treat guns as toys. Instigram dumbshits are not “gun culture,” the gentleman responding to them here, well, again gun culture isn’t really a thing like you seem to think but he’s as close as we’ll get just like all the other safety advocates in these links.

You gonna blame KMFDM next, or?

“Gun culture” and “kids committing crimes” are two separate things. “Gun culture” (if you can even call it that) is IDPA, USPSA, Cowboy Action, skeet (haha), trap, hunting, historical collections, non-historical collections, and defense. Not murdering unarmed kids in a school with a stolen or illegally purchased gun. Incel culture maybe but not “gun culture.”

This is like saying “car culture” is running over grandmas while drunk driving, rather than cosmetic/performance mods, racing, antique car shows full of Chevy Bel-Airs and Novas, muscle cars, etc. It’s not. “Alcoholic culture” maybe but not “car culture.”

Maybe you should take that step back.

Oh you seemed like you thought it was legal and that we should consider criminalizing it, but you mean we should make it double illegal. Good plan!

Spicy Nacho or I send a HIMARS M30A1

It’s not legal for 16yos to carry guns in school.

I’d argue it doesn’t, and moreover you cannot buy intelligence.

Sure, you can buy some books with some stuff in it and memorize that stuff, or pay for a class on some stuff and test well, but critical thinking skills seem to either innately exist, or not (depending on the individual in question), within us.

I’ve met people with pieces of paper that proclaim them to be certified smart that are dumb as rocks but were simply able to move through the system well enough to fool people, and people who have no such paper who are more intelligent than the former could ever hope to be. Shit happens.

I’m the leprechaun.

Tbf it’s not that hard to find a location of a bus, IP or not.

I do, but idk how that effects that problem since I stopped using it due to that problem. Also, ironically, removing sms support killed a big selling point, and the fact that phone numbers are still required is pretty lame.

Well facts lol, or any phone because telcoms have been keeping records on landlines since at least ~1982.

Ah that’d make sense, thanks! Idk why I can’t find the info anywhere online, it has to be in the fedora docs somewhere!

Edit: Ok 1 is definitely the login screen, just tried before login. 7? Remains to be seen but I bet you’re right, prob plymouth.

Ah so that’s why flashy line, am already logged in to KDE. I guess when I log in the system auto switches me from tty1 login to tty2 KDE? But then why does tty7 have the same flashy line, both can’t be login, can they?

Yes, but this is where threat modeling comes into play.

Right,:

If you need nation-state level secrecy, rule #1 is don’t associate with idiots who can’t be bothered with at least the most basic opsec. I shouldn’t talk to this motherfucker at all were that my case, or at least not digitally. Thankfully at worst we talk about me middlemanning him some weed, and even local PD dgaf.

Though btw speaking of:

Can the size or metadata

Plenty of people have been drone striked (struck?) simply because the metadata said they were talking to the wrong guy. Frankly if you need that high of a level of secrecy, you’d be better served using tails/tor, or hell even snail mail with false return addr and a book cipher. But for:

all ISPs, WiFi networks, CDNs, VPNs, script skiddies with Wireshark, and network admins in the path

Then frankly either signal or jabber+encryption (or for that matter, simplex, briar, yadda yadda) should be fine.

Signal also benefits from the network effect, because someone trying to get away from an abusive SO has plausible deniability if they download Signal on their phone (“all my friends are on Signal” or “the doctor said it’s more secure than email”)

But then again, it’s more likely to be known as an encrypted chat which may be a problem for them, while the abusive SO might just think XMPP is some outdated IM they know what signal is, and “my friends” can use jabber just the same as signal.

Alas, this is an issue with all messaging apps, if people delete the app without closing their account

Except not. XMPP not being tied to a phone number, if my buddy Steve deletes Conversations, while I may not be able to message him on jabber I can fall back on text. However (and again maybe now this is fixed), on signal if he deletes the app, I can no longer signal message him, nor can I SMS him because they get lost in limbo as signal messages, I’d have to email or use XMPP to get him to redownload signal, delete it properly, and THEN I can SMS him again. (Maybe no longer now that “no sms,” but also “no sms now but still give us your phone number” don’t sit right with me.)

Tbf, can’t the other party mess it up with signal too? I have a friend with a Samsung running stock samsung android, bloatware and all; how can I trust there’s no google or samsung keylogger, which I’m pretty sure at least one of those companies installs? With copilot existing now, how can I be sure that, when that makes it’s way to stock android, it won’t capture the signal convo? The man uses windows, how can I be sure he won’t surrender our chats to current copilot?

If you need nation-state level secrecy, rule #1 is don’t associate with idiots who can’t be bothered with at least the most basic opsec. I shouldn’t talk to this motherfucker at all were that my case, or at least not digitally. Thankfully at worst we talk about me middlemanning him some weed, and even local PD dgaf.

My main issue for signal is (mostly iPhone users) download it “just for protests” (ffs) and then delete it, but don’t relinquish their acct, so when I text them using signal it dies in limbo as they either deleted the app or never check it and don’t allow notifs. If they had relinquished their acct at least it would fall back on SMS and I could still contact them but the way it was I was literally cut off from texting at least three friends until I relinquished my acct. Now maybe somehow with the removal of SMS maybe that is fixed, but also removing SMS took my biggest selling point to “normals,” so, fuck me.

Fucking thank you so much I’ve spent the last hour trying to find this out lmao, but I couldn’t find it by searching “what is fedora tty1” for some reason.

I tried tty2 (as all online advice says to try): nothing. So I tried tty3, and it worked! But then I tried to switch “back” to my GUI using tty7, blinking cursor. Fuck. Went back to 3, tried 2 and breathed a sigh of relief as I saw my GUI lmao, then tried them all. But then began the quest to learn why tty1 and tty7 are different.

So, tty1 is SDDM, can I ask what that is? I see:

SDDM is a modern graphical display manager aiming to be fast, simple and beautiful. It uses modern technologies like QtQuick, which in turn gives the designer the ability to create smooth, animated user interfaces.

But uuhhhh… what? I see no graphicals only the blinky cursor. And is tty7 that also?

Got it now! For some reason, the internet seems to think my GUI is on tty7, but it’s on tty2, and on tty1 I only get a blinking cursor, but on the rest (besides the GUI) I get the “sysname login:” prompt. I’m sure this is a fedora thing but I can’t find out why it switched, or why tty1 shows up different.

Explains why “switch to tty2” has never worked for me though, because I was already on it and I need to switch to 3!

Edit: okay comment below says tty1 is SDDM. What’s that? Idfk. It’s a “graphical display manager” but all I see is a lone blinky line that seems fairly ungraphical. Also, tty7 shows the same blinky line, also SDDM? The world may never know. man ssdm seems to indicate it’s a user called sddm, whom I need to add to the video group and then I’ll see… something? Maybe?

You limey buzztard!
