You actually think you're going to rise up and fight against your national army? How about fighting for a better democracy instead, like by getting rid of Gerrymandering, abolishing corporate lobbyists, adopting preferential voting etc

Oh no! I only got an education from my school and didn't get to fire a gun even ONCE! Let me go sit in a corner and cry myself to sleep with my secure, well paying job and free health care. By the way I'm in army reserves and get paid to shoot rifles and automatic guns at firing ranges. It's okay, I guess, but I wouldn't go if I weren't paid lol

That was a good read with some helpful tips, but they didn't have a conclusion at the end so they never answered their own question!

Cool, I just installed Thunderbird and am giving it a go.

I would totally read that book

I'm all for getting into old school tech, I even like to browse neocities.org on occasion just for the hit of nostalgia for the old web rings. I never got into newsgroups though, and I'm wondering what reasons you might use that instead of something like Lemmy, Mastodon etc?

Apart from the piracy side, I know all about that already lol
