I’ve been using Librewolf for some months now. You can migrate your Firefox profile into Librewolf, that’s what I did and it retained my passwords. I’m not very tech savvy but it does have some kinks, my browser clock is off I’ve tried tinkering with it but gave up. And especially with the Resist Fingerprinting enabled it seems to not retain my 2 factor id for sites when I ask it to remember me.

I’ve used https://www.music-map.com/ a few times but not lately, so I don’t know how exclusive it is in regards to AI music.

A good read that focuses on your post is Free Culture: The Nature and Future of Creativity by Lawrence Lessig.

Memo be damned, this clearly violates the 4th amendment,

Fourth Amendment

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

But the other branches of our democracy are captured and complicit in this disregard for the rule of law. It explicitly says people/person not citizen, not legal person, not law abiding citizen or person, just a person has this right no other qualifiers. My fear is if the rule of law continues to crumble as fast as it has over this past year, shit is going to get extremely ugly and I fear what this means for my country. It’s clear that protesting only isn’t doing it and I fear again that elections aren’t going to solve this problem.

Never heard of the Waffle House Index, I find it comical that the FEMA uses it, informally.

It is the dust or small fibers that are inhaled that are problematic, they scar lung tissue and aren’t easily expelled or at all by the body. Asbestos is a natural silicate mineral and was used as a fire retardant since it doesn’t burn and withstands high temps.

Their claims originate from the below article, which they are not illegal immigrant. They applied, were vetted and entered in legally, yet they aren’t citizens so no, they can not vote. Just the same ol’ bullshit.

The real litmus test is if they hold the same position, spoiler: they won’t, with Trump bringing in South African “refugees”.

Reminds me of Hawking’s quote, never read the book so might be out of context, but I remember hearing it and thinking

This might suggest that the so-called imaginary time is really the real time, and that what we call real time is just a figment of our imaginations. In real time, the universe has a beginning and an end at singularities that form a boundary to space-time and at which the laws of science break down. But in imaginary time, there are no singularities or boundaries. So maybe what we call imaginary time is really more basic, and what we call real is just an idea that we invent to help us describe what we think the universe is like. But according to the approach I described in Chapter 1, a scientific theory is just a mathematical model we make to describe our observations: it exists only in our minds. So it is meaningless to ask: which is real, “real” or “imaginary” time? It is simply a matter of which is the more useful description. ― Stephen Hawking, A Brief History of Time

But he prefaced this with some real nationalist, replacement theory bullshit.

2:39:43 And I think there’s there’s a balance to be achieved. I just don’t know how it gets done because I I see both perspectives. I see the perspective of the people that say, "Hey, there was an illegal program moving people in here to get votes, moving people in here to get congressional seats, and we’ve got to change that. We’ve got to take those people that got in and send them back to where they came from or do something because if we don’t, they’re going to keep doing it if they get in office again in 2028 and it’s going to accelerate. and you’re you’re you’re going to have to take away some of the damage that’s been done to a true democratic system because you’ve kind of hijacked it and they kind of have. And then I can also see the point of view of the people that say, “Yeah, but you don’t want militarized people in the streets just roaming around snatching people up, many of which turn out to actually be US citizens that just don’t have their papers on them. Are we really going to be the the Gestapo? Where’s your papers? Is that what we’ve come to?” So, it’s it’s more complicated than I think people want to admit. You know, people want to look at this as a black and white issue. You know, if you’re a compassionate person or if you’re a pragmatic person and I don’t think that’s true. I think it’s both.

Like rats to the pied piper.

and a captured Congress and Court

Something about a lie circling the globe before the truth can get out of bed.

Sad state of my country’s admin.

Been done.

Giddyup!

I mean this i show it literally works, right?

Not calling you that just a misunderstanding maybe. It’s a common joke that people from Massachusetts are assholes, hence the name Massholes.
