Keep in mind, pedophiles don't use Signal.

They use Matrix, which is a real thorn in the side of the authorities trying to catch them.

Hopefully this gives you some insight into which platform is more private.

How do you know? 😑

Please link a single news source showing Signal app was part of a pedophile bust - should be easy if its got poor encryption that can be backdoored by authorities.

Software engineering is so often dominated by a move fast and break things mentality, driven by a rush to deploy and scale and profit, with the ability to fix problems with later updates. It’s a very immature process compared to every other engineering domain, because fix-it-later is much more difficult, expensive, and dangerous when it’s a bridge, building, airplane, or anything else tangible (although Boeing did a great job of destroying engineering process and accountability after the MBAs took control away from the engineers).

The work detailed in this Signal blog post is clearly slow and methodical, with continual checks for correctness and curiosity for optimal solutions driving careful experimentation. Building on existing proven PQ standards and keeping their refinements open for public academic feedback is wonderfully responsible. Building formal correctness proofs into CI and blocking trunk merges is spectacular.

They’re doing everything right, even years after Moxie Marlinspike’s departure. Bravo! Working this way is very expensive and requires absolute support from upper management. I’m definitely a fanboy for Meredith Whittaker and the direction she’s running the organization. Hell yeah!




Ari Aster, Florence Pugh – „Midsommar“ (2019)

Das, was aussieht wie eine Postkarte aus dem letzten Schwedenurlaub, ist ein chirurgischer Eingriff mitten ins Herz einer Beziehung. Kein klassischer Horror, sondern eine radikale Dekonstruktion von Intimität, Macht und kultureller Projektion. Wo Hollywood den Schrecken meist in dunklen Kellern und nächtlichen Wäldern versteckt, wagt Ari Aster einen Gegenentwurf: Wir sehen alles im grellen Tageslicht, ohne jede Rückzugsmöglichkeit. Der Horror liegt in der Sichtbarkeit, in der Unerbittlichkeit des Lichts, das einfach alles aufdeckt. (ZDF, Wh.)

As much as I hope they actually made it that far, I'm pretty sure it was a gps glitch. Either that or they shut off the tracker for awhile. Because there were frequent data points up until the area where they all got intercepted and then the final data point took a massive jump from the blockade to the Gaza shore.


Milwaukee fights back against fake abortion clinic


Milwaukee protest at fake reproductive care clinic

Milwaukee, WI – Activists with Reproductive Justice Action-Milwaukee (RJAM), have been showing up consistently throughout the month of September to protest the newly opened Alliance Women's Clinic.

“Places like Alliance want to divert you from accurate and accessible healthcare,” stated a member of RJAM on September 15.

“We believe that no healthcare professional’s religious, moral, or personal opinions affect your abortion care,” continued another RJAM member.

“Our bodies, our lives! Our right to decide!” chanted Catie Petralia, an RJAM member, and followed by an echo of protesters outside of Alliance.

Activists hope to raise awareness about the harm the newly opened clinic can cause. Reproductive Justice Action Milwaukee has protested other fake clinics in Milwaukee over the past few years, mainly the Women’s Care Center. RJAM’s Instagram notes that “fake clinics” or “crisis pregnancy centers” operate as healthcare entities that are funded by religious pro-life organizations to manipulate pregnant women into not choosing or receiving life-saving abortion care.

Alliance opened its doors in late August 2025, on the outskirts of West Allis, Wisconsin. RJAM took notice of this after they had protested an Alliance Family Services van in June, which had parked outside of Planned Parenthood in Milwaukee for months. The Alliance agenda, per their website, is anti-abortion centered.

Reproductive Justice Action Milwaukee will be continuing to show up to picket Alliance Women’s Clinic “until we kick them out of the city. They are not welcome here!” Stay tuned with Fight Back News to hear more stories about this fight.

Palestinians need to take one out of the Zionist playbook and start hunting down supporters of Israel around the world.

It's the only way for them to fight back and the Zionists brought this on themselves.

Picard’s Follow-Up Meeting Goes Wrong







YouTube is secretly deindexing content - Small update


For reference, here is the last post I made on this matter.

I have collected data based on some YouTube channels I have managed to (mostly) archive over the year. Specifically, I started archiving at the start of March 2025. Judging by this initial data I can more confidently say that either YouTube is performing some seriously shady shit, or an extremely high number of active YouTube creators have chosen to unlist an extremely high number of their videos in the past couple months.

About my data:
1. The column titled 'Uploaded' is the number of uploads as shown on the creator's homepage.
2. The column titled 'Public' is the number of uploads for each creator that are currently listed as of midnight, Fri 3 Oct 2025. This is shown via yt-dlp's count for the entire channel, and the videos visible on the channel's Videos tab.
3. While the slight difference in number may seem unsuspicious, yt-dlp gathers a count of all listed videos, whether public, private, membership only, marked as NSFW or age restricted.
4. I can safely say, given my current archive, that the significant deindexing by creator or by YouTube must have happened to each channel within the last few months. The difference between channels whose upload count matches my archive count, but is far higher than the public count, is suspicious to me.
5. Each creator's entire upload set is purely vlog-style with minimal edits, and are not in the habit of breaching the Community Guidelines.

The stats:

The action:
- I am currently contacting creators who have several hundred unlisted videos for confirmation, if they were the ones to delist them.

The conclusion so far:
- While I am suspicious of sneaky behaviour, it is also possible that every missing video was actually unlisted by the creator.


Youtube seems to be blocking access to a seriously large amount of publicly listed videos


I dont know what to think, really.

The Dekaif channel has 434 videos, but YouTube is only showing 275 to clients, whether logged in or not, whether yt-dlp or official access.

This isn't the first channel I've witnessed this, and weirder stuff, on. Another example is - it is accessible on Grayjay, yet not on YouTube, meaning (I think) that publicly shared videos are being deindexed, and yet they are still hosted.

You used to be able to take the video code from the URL (everything after '?v=' and before '&') and get the exact video in search results. Not now. The second YouTuber, Sparky, has 35 uploads, only 9 of which are visible. And I can attest that at least one of the remaining 26 is hosted, but invisible. I don't even know how it came up using Grayjay but not YouTube or Revanced.

Basically, there's a TON of shady underhanded shit happening at YTHQ and everyone needs to jump ship to Odysee, Peertube or some platform that won't be clogged with AI. This is bad for everyone.

I'm posting it here mainly because I verified my findings with yt-dlp, and this new bs is successfully thwarting my attempts to archive.

3rd Oct edit: I am seeing massive differences in indexed videos versus archived videos. I am currently aggregating but the definitely affected videos range from 10% to 50%

might it have something to do with this?

i have already seen some "synthetic content" labels attached to random videos

in reply to 14th_cylon

I wouldn't have thought so, as none of these creators in my first test have used these methods for editing - their content is all vlog style, with the only edits involving audio effects and cuts between footage. I'm ruling nothing out until it's proven irrelevant, however.
in reply to Lyra_Lycan

what i have seen it on so far was pure slop, some random images from photobank, sometimes even with the watermark, accompanied by generated voice, so these are the ones that should really go.
in reply to 14th_cylon

It's good to know that those are being acted on, but hell. AI should be a tool, not a replacement. Maybe companies will figure that out someday
Questa voce è stata modificata (1 mese fa)

YouTube did make some changes to their terms primarily for creators that get paid for content. They added some new LLM-based scanning of content to find stuff that is too repetitive or didn't contain enough original content. Assuming the creators you looked at have mostly original content rather than remixing of content which may be misinterpreted by LLMs as not being "original enough", they could be falling victim to overaggressive hits if they use a consistent format in their content since LLMs don't really understand context, only patterns.

I'd be interested to find out if the creators got any notification from YouTube on the reason for removal of the content.

Can I remove Pipewire-ALSA without removing Pipewire itself?


This kinda stems from this issue I asked about a while back, Pipewire an PulseAudio have caused me quite a bit of confusion lately as I recently started experiencing crackling/static sounds from my Bluetooth speaker when playing audio.

After days of digging and thinking that I’ve fixed the issue by editing /usr/share/piperwire.conf and /usr/share/pipewire-pulse.conf and following guides like this one (I know the link is for EndeavorOS) I have seem to come to the conclusion that Pipewire-ALSA is the issue to the crackling/static sounds I’m hearing.

I stumbled upon qpwgraph which appears to visualize the flow and when I disconnect Pipewire-ALSA from the flow the cracking sounds stop, now from my understanding Pipewire and PulseAudio cannot coexist which is causing my confusion because Pipewire-ALSA also appears to connect to a bunch of PulseAudio Volume Controllers.

I've run into the crackling problem recently as well. I think the ALSA module is improperly requesting a very low quant value causing applications to have a tiny audio buffer which they fail to keep filled, resulting in crackling.

To see if this is what's happening, try running pw-top and see if the quant column is a small number (~200). This is a very short audio buffer, it'll be low latency but if the source application can't keep the buffer filled then you will get the crackling effect. You can increase this value by setting a global minimum with:

pw-metadata -n settings 0 clock.min-quantum 2048

It will set the audio buffer to 1024/48000 seconds (or .0434s, 43.4ms). It will introduce a bit of latency (you can decrease the quant to 512 for ~20ms if you need lower latency).

This will not persist past a reboot, you'd have to edit a config file for that (pipewire.conf, maybe?).

in reply to ohshit604

Pipewire-pulse provides compatibility to programs that may not directly support pipewire yet.

Pipewire was developed to be a total drop in replacement to the Pulse audio sound server. It has compatibility layers that allow other things to talk to it.

Edit: debian is not showing pipewire-alsa as a hard dependency of pipewire

Simplex, xmpp, deltachat, briar, matrix, even session.

Anything is better than signal that relies on a centralised proprietary server and requires a phone number.

Sure, but tell my family that...

Has any of those become like easy to install and use? To be fair I haven't checked in some time...

in reply to Valmond

With DeltaChat you don't even need an email address anymore, they provide it for you on the fly. They just ask your name if you (optionally) want to put it.

Can't be simpler than that tbh.

If you want a better looking ui, check ArcaneChat for Android. It's 100% compatible with DeltaChat protocol

in reply to Valmond

Simplex is really easy to install and use, unfortunately it's still kinda buggy, specially with public relays, I personally don't mind buggy, I'm willing to make sacrifices for the same of freedom and privacy.

I just keep a second chat app as a failback so I can send them a message saying "ur simplex broke again, pls restart"

Xmpp has been stable for decades, tho I guess otr/omemo is hard for family to install, also doesn't support e2ee calls (or rather, it does, but it's complicated). But I haven't used xmpp in a long time.

in reply to Seefra 1

I hate talkingpoints like that. Sure Signal can be critiqued, but it's still the best "mainstream" solution we have. And a lot of people would just stop using secure messanger when signal is gone. Including me because what is simplex or matrix worth for me, when no one I know cares to switch?

in reply to jonnylyy

My personal experience is that if I can convince someone to install signal I can also convince them to install simplex, the process is the same. If I can't then they aren't going to use anything but the popular spyware anyway.
in reply to Seefra 1

I will absolutely try that, but most of the people switched to signal or threema because they already heard about it and could just use it because they already used it for some other contacts (actually this was the most common. They already had an account and the app and just had to use it more) . But I don't think a lot of people would switch to a messanger they never heard about, just for me.
in reply to jonnylyy

Well, that is fair, also simplex has some serious bugs which I don't mind because I value freedom, security and privacy over reliability, but sometimes the app just stops receiving messages until restarted and I need to message them via other means telling them to restart the app.


in reply to silence7

Shame ... North Carolina was once called the "Rip Van Winkle" state because it was so far behind everyone else. And it woke up briefly and briefly gave us a great public university system as well as Red Hat Linux. Then around the turn of the century, every racist boomer with a small pension from Jersey and New York sold their assets and moved down and bought up all of the old farmland and turned it into cardboard McMansions everywhere and made it MAGA heaven. That combined with all of the Fort Liberty homesteaders who spread out from Fayettenam like a cancer with their perpetual war contracts completely changed the state overnight.

A few years ago we had the biggest solar lobby in the country ... the old families had turned the tobacco fields into solar farms and it was going well. But I guess even they have been crowded out of their own state. It's a violent place now where people can shoot up the power stations to protest books and go unpunished, and spec ops guys can shoot working immigrants 200 yards from their property in "self defense" and not even be arrested.

It's now just a stew of MAGA that keeps brewing to the point that the original flavor has been lost. It will only get saltier. The "University" system is now run by MAGAts. It takes generations to set up infrastructure like what was set up around the RTP area, and only a few years to undo it all.

Sorry North Carolina, I had to leave.
