    I can imagine it was meant as a joke

    You can imagine whatever you want, but you’re wrong and also what kind of person hears an accusation of the most heinous kind of nazi bullshit and immediately jumps to defend the accused without ANY information? The only kind of person I can imagine who is so eager to defend people against accusations of nazism is a nazi.

    Here’s a good summary of the situation. TL;DR: The mod in question says, “all 27 million Soviet citizens killed by the nazis deserved it.” This was 9 months after having been educated on the fact that that number includes many civilian holocaust victims. The owner of your server thinks these are completely cool views to express and not indicative of nazism. That makes the server owner a nazi in addition to the mod.

    If you continue to defend this, you are also a nazi (which tracks, as you’re posting from the nazi instance)


  • Something tells me your definition of “genuine socialists” doesn’t include anarchists to begin with.

    I’m an anarchist

    Anyway, if you do see any real nazi content from a db0 user, they’d be breaking instance rules so you can and should report them to the mods.

    A prominent mod on dbzero said the holocaust was good because it killed communists, and db0 (the server owner) supported and defended this mod. It’s a nazi instance. Nazi instances don’t punish nazi users.





  • It’s randomly generated, brute forcing it should take years.

    Cool, so they use any number of exploits to simply go around the password. The point isn’t that a password is easy to get through (just like a locked door isn’t easy to get through) it is that if you’re facing a determined attacker it doesn’t matter how secure it is. If they have physical unsupervised access to your PC, you’ve already lost.

    Fortunately for us all, these determined attackers do not exist. Nobody’s breaking my windows to boot up my fucking PC. The situation in which a password would help you is if someone has gone to the effort to bypass the physical security on your home, and then has no plan to deal with a password locked computer. They just take one look at it and go “welp, that’s it, everybody crawl back through the window then, watch the glass shards” Instead of picking up the entire PC and walking off with it, or yanking out the hard drives, or booting into their own preferred OS on a USB, or whatever else would actually happen if these made up attackers were real.


  • If the government wants to fabricate a reason to prosecute me they’ll just bring some drugs to my house, the idea that they would go in with the plan to plant incriminating files on my computer (instead of just lying that there were incriminating files / showing a completely fake computer???) and then be foiled by a fucking password box and go “damn, he’s too clever for us, I guess we have to let him go” is just BEYOND ridiculous


  • Nobody lives with you?

    My grandmother, who has no interest in my computer.

    Or visits you?

    No

    You don’t use a laptop ever?

    No

    What if someone does get through your locks?

    What if someone guesses your password? Why don’t you keep your computer in a custom built safe bolted to the floor? There’s always another level of security you could hypothetically require, I just live in reality where the truth is no one is touching my computer.

    there’s basically no downside to it.

    It takes a second or so every time (sometimes a couple of seconds, I’m not always booting my computer with the intent to type shit immediately) which adds up over time. Sometimes I mistype, wasting 10+ seconds. And the benefit of this mild inconvenience is nothing.




  • Yeah this is one of those topics where you kinda just have to let it go. If someone wants to say “yeah those fuckin fascists deserved it!” it’s just an argument born of emotion overpowering logic, which is a problem when analyzing events in the present and future, but not really a big deal when analyzing the past. People can be vindictive and irrational regarding shit that already happened, I don’t care. As long as nobody’s advocating for dropping any nukes today we’re good.

    (Seriously though dropping the nukes was one of the most horrific crimes ever committed)
