We watched The Lion King tonight in his honor.

I’ve even helped by putting my nose in the air and saying, “that’s ok, I’ll put it away for you”

If someone tells you something, that something does not get repeated without asking for permission first. People don’t have to say “can I tell you this in confidence?” Absolutely everything is kept in confidence.

Loved it. TMI. It came out when my first wife and I had split after 20 years of marriage. I was living in a dive apartment. Alone for the first time in my life.

Playing BioShock.

I’m unsure why you would draw that conclusion. I don’t know enough about Elon Musk to be either a fan of the man or a detractor of the man, but it is quite possible that he and I have views that intersect from time-to-time. Just as I’m guessing you and I may have views that intersect from time-to-time.

I’m also old enough to remember the Stasi and the KGB. So if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, I’m gonna call it a duck, and your project, if it really exists and wasn’t you just blowing smoke, is exactly the kind of project those two organizations would have signed on for. Neither one of them wanted the citizens behind their Iron Curtain learning about things that were not State approved. So they actively suppressed those things and those who shared them, (cf. Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, of whom you may have heard. If not, I encourage you to look him up).

The best thing you could possibly do is have children report on their parents for evading the ban. Or I suppose have neighbors report on each other.

It was really effective for the Stasi and the KGB.

Very very aware.

So you had another mail server elsewhere that port forwarded port 25 via port 22 to your internal mail server’s port 25.

I take it that outside mail server was secure.

That’s an impressive setup.

Thanks for reading and engaging in good faith.

The lack of land is a huge problem. It is possible that when underwater habitats or space habitats become a thing there will be room for such an experiment.

Did you really only use it when you were home? If you used it outside the firewall then port 25 must have been open also.

I used to run my own server and this was in the early 90s. Then one day, perusing the logs I realized I was not smart enough on the security front to even attempt such a thing. It was quickly shut down and the MX record moved to an outsourced mail provider.

I disagree. Voluntary communities are made up of volunteers. There is nothing coercive about it. Voluntary communities provide a way for like-minded people to live in harmony. If your beliefs do not match the beliefs of a voluntary community, you are free to to argue that your beliefs should be included, leave the community, or start a new one and include anyone who believes the same things you do.

Granted within current systems you can do the first, but you are completely unable to do either the second or third.

I live in the USA. But I did not volunteer to live in the USA. I certainly may be able to move to a different country, but I certainly won’t be able to find a country with the same beliefs as I have. (The States with our Constitution and Bill of Rights is likely the closest to my beliefs).

Probably not the root of what you’re looking for, but when I was growing up in the 70s there was a national Christian campaign called the "I Found It* campaign. The church I grew up in participated and I Found It yard signs and buttons and billboards and radio ads and TV ads sprouted every where.

Of course the answer to *what did you find?" Was always Jesus, or eternal life or something like that.

That’s one of the reasons AnCaps believe in voluntary communities, that way those who didn’t advise but whatever the community’s rules are they can a) be punished based on the rules of the given community, or expelled.

AnCap here. Unfortunately in our world there is no possible way to create an AnCap society, so you live within the bounds of what you have.

When you call the cops you’re calling people who can kill you with impunity and get a paid vacation for doing so. Just say no to calling the cops.

I always have Tony’s on hand. Fixes bland over and over again.

Yes I complete my census survey that seems like a valid function of government.

I do not register for a political party as I believe voting is an immoral act. I have no right to tell anyone how to live there life. If I were to vote for a candidate I would be indirectly telling others how they should live. If I were to vote for a ballot measure I would be directly telling others how they should live.

Someone recently challenged me on that stance and I’m revaluating it slightly. They asked if I would vote to restore a freedom that had been taken away. I haven’t fully wrestled with that yet, but I’m starting to think that I might should the situation occur.

It could well be.

I believe in not being surveilled by my government. That is a core belief. So you could say that yes I do believe in some things very deeply.

I think I might do anything that might prevent that from happening to me again.

Can you expect anything else given the current administration had her added to the Quiet Skies list?
