I switched to Quad9 since I like how they fought and finally won on appeal the Sony lawsuit (see https://torrentfreak.com/dns-resolver-quad9-wins-pirate-site-blocking-appeal-against-sony-231208/)

It's important news for pirates, because if you've set cloudflare dns resolvers in your *arr stack then certain things might stop working (e.g. blocked indexers). I just switched my system to another DNS service because of this.

Thanks for the heads up :p

It's all in the community sidebar info:

Some acronyms you might see.

        PTB - Power-Tripping Bastard: The commenter agrees with you this was a PTB mod.
    YDI - You Deserved It: The commenter thinks you deserved that mod action.
    BPR - Bait-Provoked Reaction: That mod probably overreacted in charged situation, or due to being baited.
    CLM - Clueless mod: The mod probably just doesn’t understand how their software works.
  

Totally agree with this. I haven't seen a single post about this topic that needed removing imo, let alone banning people for it. Let ordinary folks enjoy the death of some rich bastard (who totally deserved it) in peace.

Based on your arguments here you're basically saying that celebrating (or maybe even even simply not condemning?) this act of violence means that you must tacitly endorse this type of violence, correct? That's a very long bow to draw.

I think most people, myself included, would much prefer a non-violent way to prevent capitalists from profiting directly from the physical and financial misery of sick and dying people. Like maybe some stronger laws, better regulation and enforcement, and active prosecution of non-compliant companies and their bosses, for a start, right? But in the seeming absence of that possibility, why not let folks have their schadenfreude moment in peace?

I'd say PTB but I guess TBD will do.

Who does it benefit to have instance rules like this? On LW you are not allowed to promote or celebrate any form of violence, so no matter how oppresive the state is, and no matter who the object of violence is (rapist, murderer, genocider, Nazi). The LW view seems to be that it would be uncivil to resist your own systematic exploitation and oppression in this way, and that it is always wrong to promote violence, even agaist literal Nazis. I've noticed most of the liberal instances have a similar policy. With a soft liberal underbelly like that, I dread to think what sort of milquetoast resistance to fascism the US population will be able to muster over the next few years.

It's fairly trivial to bypass Microsoft's hardware requirements for windows 11 afaik. Just install via Rufus and click the relevant options. I agree with you that MS should have made these optional recommendations though, we shouldn't have to use third party tools.

The breakdown of application answers was totally worth doing, db0! I found it interesting, at least :)

Why would you expect the police to come down on Rose's side of things? They are much more likely to side with the Neo-Nazis, based on history.

As a rule of thumb I think CWs are a good idea if there is any content that is likely to upset someone and be reported. Exactly where the line should be is up for debate, but it seemed likely to me in this case.

Might as well get in on the action here with an intro reading list on Anarchism then :p

You made me spit my coffee :p

Are you really arguing we should all be nicer to literal Nazis? That's the group we are talking about.

Nazis aren't people

It's Sonarr - just saw that the first couple of episodes of this series are on usenet already, so I guess it's not so ironically difficult lol

Fittingly enough they are also now available on The Pirate Bay as torrents.

For those who aren't aware of this new series:
