Looks like all the street barricades in Minneapolis IVO 26th street had to come down.
Two posts from the official Minneapolis Threads account. Original post from 24 hours ago: "We commend those demonstrating peacefully right now. To ensure the safety of residents, the City is putting in place a vehicle perimeter in the area surrounding the scene of today's fatal shooting by federal agents. The zone includes Franklin Ave to 28th St, 35W to Pillsbury Ave"

Quote reply from 8 hours ago: The vehicle perimeter surrounding 26th St. W and Nicollet Ave has been lifted – roads are back open to traffic and National Guard assignments have ended.
Streets need to be clear for emergency vehicles to get through if needed.
Activity overnight was calm and peaceful.

Account was mplsgov on Threads

Protesters have erected barricades in Minneapolis. The protests haven't stopped since ICE killed Alex Pretti. Here's a livestream that's been up for about 12 hours. It's worth scrubbing through to see what's happened. It's not clear when, or if, they'll go home. www.youtube.com/watch?v=xYPG...

remember, as bad as things are: it's your duty to survive if you can. be fucked up if you gave up while others gave their lives to protect you. if you can't do it for yourself, then realize you owe everyone martyred now and into the future to carry on. because not everyone is going to make it.

What's the difference between today and 40 days ago? Not a damn thing. I legitimately feel like Democrats just fumbled at the 10 yard line. Man, I had hope. Like real hope, that they reached in their pants and found accountability. I slept better this week. It really is a big club, isn't it?

I would like to point out that the Fifth Amendment reads "No Person", not "No citizen". Feels a bit... unconstitutional to claim that due process is only for US Citizens, or legal immigrants.

The AWS outage shows, once again, why monopolization of anything is a bad idea. If we never allowed AWS to grow to that size and buy all of its competition. Since 2014, Amazon has acquired 18 companies that they rolled into AWS. 18 points of failure versus one. Consumers lose when companies merge.

It's 5 AM, I'm stoned, and I've been watching this for like 10 minutes. It's cinema. The silly elliptical bike, the fact that his flag is draped all sad, the knock-off black bloc outfit with the FUCKIN FLIP FLOPS? And no one's looking at him. Benny Hill on a pink megaphone upstaged his big moment.

Legacy media having to learn what a groyper is was not on my 2025 bingo card. I love that they're always so caught off guard by how... online people are. The only thing funnier would be legacy media "discovering" how gross Asmongold is. Welcome to the internet, legacy media. You're gonna hate it.

We really need better tech literacy. Whats happened here is that a blurry photo was fed into a generative AI, which proceeded to make stuff up to fill in the missing (blurry) data in the image. I know the tech companies are preaching that Ai is magic, but it's just guessing. Expensively guessing.

I've finally nailed down my largest problem with "AI" and this idea of a generative AI. Computers are great because they do exactly what you tell them to, for better or for worse. It's (ideally) determinitive and predictable. But AI is neither of those.

Underrated reason to use Linux in 2025 is the pure shadenfreude of watching Windows users try to fix their drives after Microsoft shits the bed for the umpteenth update this year. It's not all peaches and rainbows, for sure. But I don't have to unfuck my OS every quarter.

The EA App is such a pile of garbage. Doesn't run in Proton, barely runs in Lutris. I have a valid license for the game, dammit! Let me run the game on whatever OS I want. Was thoroughly enjoying gaming on Linux until my friends wanted to play Battlefront II, which won't launch without the EA app.

I'd like to hear Billy's opinion on why Linux has been free, open source for decades. Every distro is hosted for free somewhere. Every windows application has some free alternative, or some free software that makes it work on Linux. What is the incentive for that?

Any one here got a gaming setup with Linux? I'm (slowly) making the switch. I got Bazzite installed and fought with filesystems for a bit before I got tired. How do you all store your games? Windows only on windows? Shared filesystem between the two?

What do you mean "could". Take off the gloves and fight back. He called the National Guard on some protesters in LA. What are you trying to do, protect your funding? I've seen news footage this week of LAPD beating a single unarmed civilian WHILE trampling them with horses. Fuck's sake.
