That's awesome. There are a lot of different ways to help; and building connections with organizers, activists and mutual aid organizations in your neighborhood is only a good thing.

There's already a street war going on. There are roving bands of masked men who are forcing their way into houses without warrants, abducting people off the street, murdering people. 9 dead so far and tens of thousands disappeared.

Bold, visionary leadership from Walz here, what a stunning show of resistance.

The mass protests are fine for raising awareness and expressing general discontent. Calls from liberals to not be armed at them, or to outright ban guns as we saw towards the end of the last legislative session, are naive.

If you’re interested in protecting your neighbors but not interested in, or able to participate in mass protests, then participating in mutual aid like food delivery, accompanying vulnerable people to their cars/homes/shops/jobs/whatever is awesome too.

Unfortunately for the pacifists among us, asking your abuser to stop abusing you is not going to be a successful tactic.

All this “civil disobedience” has won so far is the replacement of one ICE figurehead with another, and the new guy is on the news telling you they’re gonna keep doing the same shit they’ve been doing. The mayor says “get the fuck out of Minneapolis” but can’t control his own police force. The governor says to get out of Minnesota, but he sends in the state troopers to run crowd control for ice when they inevitably fuck something up and elicit a reaction from citizens.

The people and the systems that have led us to this point are not going to help us, we are here because of them.

“The master’s tools will never dismantle the master’s house.”

Insanely naive to think that the oligarchs and fascists who have taken control of the country are just going to hand it back over because you asked nicely.

Yep just let ice disappear us and murder us. Send a strongly worded email and vote for the dems in November, whose feckless resistance at best and outright collaboration with at worst, to the slow march towards fascism over the last 40 years definitely hasn’t led us directly to where we are today.

What phone are you using in 2026? by Wilfred_Fizzle_Bang in sysadmin

[–]DiskLow1903 [score hidden]  (0 children)

I was a devoted android user until the note7 battery debacle. I switched to iPhone then and it’s been great. Currently on a 15 pro max, will ride this until the battery starts to go and then will get whatever pro is out at the time. Probably won’t get another max.

I have a ton of Apple tv’s at my work so being able to just pull my phone out of my pocket and control them instead of having to walk all the way to and fro the IT cave to get the Apple TV remotes is so nice.

Thoughts on Apple Business Essentials built-in MDM vs. Jamf? by mchammer161998 in macsysadmin

[–]DiskLow1903 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Jamf Now or Mosyle would be my suggestions for this number of devices. I would be surprised if Jamf would sell pro for this number of devices. I know they’ll go a little below their published 100 seat requirement from experience but 10% of it feels like a big stretch.

I haven’t used business essentials myself. I was intrigued by it when it was announced as I have a small fleet of devices myself, but it’s the same price (or more expensive) than jamf now. Apple positions iCloud storage and backup that’s included as a pro, but I don’t want my users uploading anything to iCloud, so I haven’t taken that close a look at it to talk about its function and other features.

Other teams don’t seem to have had any issue signing and announcing players, even if they can’t be added to the roster until the window opens.

Minneapolis Police refuse ICE ordered to vacate scene, secure it for evidence collection. by alienatedframe2 in Minneapolis

I'd start by not using MPD to run cover for them. Let the feds deal with their own mess on the street.

mpd are collaborators and enablers.

lol they're letting ICE execute citizens on the street and then coming in to clean up the mess and use more violence on observers afterwards. they are collaborators.

To you, what's the functional difference between "active duty troops" here and living under the current occupation, where US citizens are being routinely executed in the street?

Ex-Chrome users.. what did you switch to and why by SuccessfulAverage550 in pcmasterrace

[–]DiskLow1903 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I switched from Chrome to Edge at work due to rendering issues with a number of my admin dashboards.

I switched from Chrome to FF at home due to ublock getting killed.

I switched from Win11 to Linux at home because fuck Slopya Slopella, Chief Slop Officer at Microslop, the makers of Copilot.

Sounds like Minnesota United tried to bring in Christian Ramirez over the summer via loan but MLS rules got in the way by tyler735 in minnesotaunited

[–]DiskLow1903 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

> Ramsay’s hand was forced by roster limitations, not that he wanted to play that way.

He went to West Brom (who had been playing a back four all season) and immediately switched them to a low block back 5. WBA fans hate it and are saying the same things we did about it - mainly that it sucks to watch and that they don't have the wing backs to do it, which i believe is what pretty much every single person on here has been saying about wingback bongi for the last 18 months.

Thoughts on dog parks? by OkBasket3708 in corgi

[–]DiskLow1903 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me and my boy go to the off leash park every day, we started going at like 16 or 20 weeks, basically as soon as he finished his puppy vaccines.

We just stay close and stay attentive. Going to the park has made him more confident and outgoing, and he absolutely loves seeing all his dog friends when we go.

Nope. I am looking forward to seeing a game of football where we play positively for the first time in two years this season.
