RAT.FUN is a game about having fun and drugging rats

this will make sense to very few people, but: I started an organized labor underground in an on-chain game about sending lab rats on psychic missions (rat.fun) the starting chamber for our narrative is rat.fun/0x402ef3ccdf... DM me for some $RAT if you want to play (needs a little base ETH for gas)

one thing that is readily apparent after returning to the US after some time away is that China has already achieved the civ style cultural victory and is playing past the endgame screen a less incompetent US admin could counterbalance this but, alas

is there an audit history for when the release was marked as malware in your system? I opened that release page before my original reply and only saw the "release was removed" box not the malware/obfuscation messages

fun tidbit from the swedish voting help site above, see if you can spot it

a screenshot of "Good to know" categories from the https://howtovote.se/ website; one of the helpful tips is titled "Don't trust Donald" (in reference to how those who do not wish to vote for any candidate will often write in "Donald Duck" instead)

one interesting observation is that the actual set of countries that do vote by mail looks almost exactly like the en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Eco... map (with the notable exception of the Nordics but they mostly have equivalents like howtovote.se/voting-by-co...)

a map that accurately shows which countries allow either unrestricted or conditional mail-in ballots, addressing the inaccurate claims in the original tweet

funny enough chat.deepseek.com isn't gated beyond normal SSO (in addition to being light years ahead of us models, aside from the censorship unless you use the ablated model)

we've had to rotate our tor keys so the archive.org onion service now lives on archivep75mbjunhxc6x4j5mwjmomyxb573v42baldlqu56ruil2oiad.onion it's no speed demon but it should generally work! let me know if you run into any issues (game emulation is known to be broken right now FWIW)

has anyone done a numerology art project on the patterns in their 2FA codes?

I am sure such time honored classics as White Christmas would never have been recorded if the performer knew that 25 years after their death libraries would not be sued for $1/3BN dollars for preserving a shitty sounding version of the track which you can listen to for free on youtube

just posting this evergreen quote for no reason at all: “The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side.”
