Like American first "ladies" and Hollywood actresses, "Bond Girls" are highly dubious. To put it bluntly, a lot of them look like trannies, starting with the very first one who appeared in "Dr No" (1962) - Ursula Andress.
Some people think I'm just a fruitloop who makes all this stuff up. Maybe I am. But maybe I'm not...
Like everything else on the internet, much of the information posted about Linux is misinformation. When I was looking into the different distros I came across this example:
The 11 Best Debian-Based Linux Distributions
Elon the pet gate keeper shill never seems to mention the main cause - DEATHJABS - but that is how shills roll...
At the start of this year I shifted my attention to this www.sift.co.nz blog and started things off with the post "A new approach to Blogging"
It's long been an idea in the back of my mind that although my pictures probably all disappear into the vast sea of the internet without trace, it's possible that one of them might end up being seen by someone who might type in the URL out of curiosity and who knows what might happen. I'm casting out messages in bottles.
So starting today I'll include a signed image on every blog post, and make more effort to spread them around. Some of them will undoubtedly be double ups, but too bad, I'm not going to be anal about this!
If my blogging is to be more of a process of posting random snippets of information in a way that I can easily search through and find again later after I forget what it was I was going on about, or rapidly reshare online, then I need a simple system that works well, and fits in with my practice of switching between my PC and various laptops.
But those platforms were set up with essentially unlimited budgets, and some of them were actually done really well. Like Facebook for example, the largest social media platform, which supposedly has two billion accounts, and while that number is utter bollocks, simply because most of those accounts are either AI or just plain fake, it still has a huge number of real users.
I have tried a few different ways to fling out information online, and come to conclusion that obscure blockchain forks like Blurt or Bastion just are never going to work, even with the best intentions in the world, simply because they have no real audience. And meanwhile the larger blockchains like Steemit or Hive are every bit as deep state controlled and censored as the mainstream platforms.
The quickest and easiest way for me to record ideas, format them, add images, and post them online, is to do it on Blogger, which is owned by my sworn enemies, Google, but I've been using it forever and it works like a charm. And next I might as well share them on Facebook, which was set up by the CIA, but if bugger all people are going to see what I post anyway, I might as well go with what works most easily.
So starting tomorrow, October 1st 2024, This will be my ultra low key simple blogging system:
1. Write brief posts (almost "tweets" rather than blog posts, but I loath X/Twatter), and publish them first on my Blogger blog www.sift.co.nz
2. Share them around online a bit. At this stage that is mainly just going to be on Facebook, and for some of the posts, also extra copies on a couple of my own alt blogs, but who knows, I may get carried away and add a few other platforms back into the mix if I can do all this effortlessly enough.
"On Thursday, some links to the notorious shadow library Library Genesis (Libgen) couldn't be reached after a US district court judge, Colleen McMahon, ordered what TorrentFreak called "one of the broadest anti-piracy injunctions" ever issued by a US court.
In her order, McMahon sided with textbook publishers who accused Libgen of willful copyright infringement after Libgen completely ignored their complaint.
To compensate rightsholders, McMahon ordered Libgen to pay $30 million, but because nobody knows who runs the shadow library, it seems unlikely that publishers will be paid any time soon, if ever.
Because Libgen's admins remain anonymous and elusive—and previously avoided paying a different set of publishers $15 million in 2017—McMahon granted publishers' request for an uncommonly broad injunction that may empower publishers to go further than ever to destroy the shadow library"
"But even under such a broad injunction, the question remains whether publishers can succeed in taking down Libgen—which openly informs users that using its platform violates copyright laws and encourages them to pirate books anyway.
"It is illegal to download ('make copies of') material that is protected by copyright," Libgen's 2023 video said. "However, all that is illegal is not criminal… for the average person, generally there won't be any criminal consequences under copyright law from having pirated items on your computer."
