to effect a de-arrest, count how many cops are restraining your comrade, and bring at least as many punks into the fray. your friend doesn't count, since they need to escape, but the pigs will act like he is the target the whole time while you cut zip ties or break holds. with enough chaos, they won't even understand what is happening until you all disappear into the crowd.

oh, and wear black

if calories-to-price is your metric

it's a metric for food I buy, and anything less convenient that a gas station hot dog that costs now power calorie is a hard sell. I don't live on has station hot dogs, but they are, in my opinion, a good standard for convenience food value.

I also drink soylent, which is only like half as good as hotdogs, but the nutrient balance is incredible.

my wife says my spreadsheets are how farmers feed cattle.

I don't know how this can be verified, nor does it matter at the point of sale

just wanna second what @moonmelon@lemmy.ml said. you're awesome.

i'd say "keep up the good work" but like you deserve a break.

i found the comment you're replying to via a search for "propagand" and i was like "what did ptb do this time?" and like... i don't love being on your side but i think you probably got this one right.

I immediately tried ifconfig. You’re probably too young to even know that command.

no... i still haven't figured out what i'm supposed to use instead.

I don't want to be one of the people you think is angry at you, but I do want to proselytize a bit.

have you ever used a dedicated download manager? think of the terminal, first, as a dedicated download manager. All you do is type wget and then paste in the URL.

eventually, you may want to specify where the file goes, or what it's named when you finally download it, or something else. then, you can look up which flags to add with wget -h

I suggest you try Linux, any flavor, but especially Debian or Debian variants. instead of thinking you need to learn to use terminal, just remember that you have a dedicated download manager called terminal.

The thing is you will eventually learn that the terminal does a lot more than called wget. and you already know how to get help, and add flags.

you haven't been using torrents, Ubuntu, or VPNs for 30 years. why would you lie about that?

any tips for learning manual?

I usually start with email, but I wonder if podcasts would be smarter. when I read what you said, my first thought was"but podcasts require you to upload to every instance that you want to be seen on" and then I realized that for the people that are just trying to get content this doesn't matter. That's actually genius.

I’ve been in the streets. ...I’ve been attending various demonstrations, protests, and actions for nearly 20 years now. Ever since my early 20s (I’m 38 now) I’ve made a point of attending at least one protest every month, in addition to other actions I take part in. Lately, that’s been closer to weekly than monthly. I cook for my local Food Not Bombs and sometimes help distribute

nice. food solidarity is my jam.

I evaluate basically all my food with what I call "hotdog math". my wife hates it. my local gas station sells hotdogs at 2/$1. the free toppings can push the calories count near 550, but I know nothing comes close, so I round down to 500. milk beats oatmilk on hotdog math, and carries a wider diversity of nutrients, to boot.
