LA Times: Fears of racial profiling rise as Border Patrol conducts ‘roving patrols,’ detains U.S. citizens

in reply to AI6YR Ben

".,..Agents picking up street vendors without warrants. American citizens being grilled. Home Depot lots swept. Car washes raided. The wide-scale arrests and detainments — often in the region’s largely Latino neighborhoods — contain hallmarks of racial profiling and other due process violations....“We are seeing ICE come into our communities to do indiscriminate mass arrests of immigrants or people who appear to them to be immigrant, largely based on racial profiling,” said Eva Bitran, a lawyer at ACLU of Southern California. "

I wrote about how to turn in-person meetings into Signal groups, how to manage large semi-public Signal groups while vetting new members, and how to use announcement-only Signal groups, perfect for rapidly responding to ICE raids micahflee.com/using-signal-gro…

Israel's current situation reminds me of the Centauri...

"Is there anyone on our border with whom we are not at war? ... Only an idiot fights a war on two fronts. Only the heir to the throne of the kingdom of idiots fights a war on twelve fronts."

It did not end well for them.

#AudioMo day 17: the Low Effort Noise Machine.

On January 3, 2025, I walked around my parents house with my Soma Labs Ether connected to a digital recorder, and captured about 17 minutes of electronic noises. I then divided that audio into 8 equal length tracks, and went wild with effects, mostly filters, panning, and other LFO-driven stuff. The result is 2 minutes and 9 seconds of what I call the low effort noise machine.

Don't click this if weird buzzy things freak you out.

O vikendu jsem pokracoval ve zkoumani posunu Fediversa a dnes se mi povedlo deploynout Fedi server na lbc.wtf

Ma to hodne ostre hrany, ale v zasade se mi povedlo vsechno, co jsem chtel:
- smazal jsem bariery mezi webem, serverem a clientem.
- read-only pristup bez prihlaseni
- vlastni nalodeni
- podle otazek dostane novy uzivatel defaultni seznam sledovanych (zatim top ceske ucty).

Budu rad za vyzkouseni a feedback 🙏

I've been practicing #guitar regularly using Captrice for about a month now. Mainly focusing on alternate picking and legato. Yesterday was the first time I was able to manage 8th note triplets at 200 bpm. I have always struggled with alt picking at high speeds. But yesterday it felt like some thing got unlocked! Still need to work on clarity and control.

> Signal groups, in particular, are more powerful than you might be aware of, even if you already use them all the time. In this post I'll show you how to:

- Turn an in-person meeting into a Signal group using QR codes
- Manage large semi-public groups while still vetting new members
- Make announcement-only groups, perfect for volunteer networks rapidly responding to things like ICE raids

#Catima 2.35.1 is out! This is a very boring release, just containing some dependency and translation updates. It also adds 1 new community-contributed language: Persian.

If your favourite language is not (completely) supported, consider contributing on hosted.weblate.org/projects/ca… (no AI or "Google Translate" translations please, nobody is helped by low-quality translations filled with errors).

Coming soon to an app store near you.
