PewDiePie christpilled his son, and it’s literally 9/11 for the xitter rapewingers.

Back in 2007 they had a 2G cell phone called the Openmoko, which ran Openmoko Linux. You even had terminal access. I would buy an old one, plug it into an old Linux Thinkpad, then add headphones for making calls, then add a ULX3S running custom PHY (TDMA complexity, not OFDMA), then add a LimeSDR PCIe and a receptacle for cat6 ethernet plug-in to laptop. Then add a solar-powered BTS tower w/ OpenBTS/OsmoBTS and Asterisk on Linux. Also, will need to setup OsmocomBB on the phone. Add a sysmousim developer SIM card in SIM reader, plugged into laptop, then write authentication w/ OsmocomBB ports. Then you can call other people, provided they're using OsmocomBB-compatible hardware and read instructions for flashing firmware on the SIM card for self-activation into your free open baseband 2G network. You can even run a computer network over GSM. You'll need a transport-agnostic GNUNet overlay but as a custom BBS scripted in Python w/ installation instructions on the website for how to set-up and connect to, provided they're within range of that tower. Then you name your company (say, Liberty Cellular). You can still make a 2G network even today, provided you have a part 5 experimental radio license from the FCC and took training courses. While implementing TDMA on FPGA (ULX3S) may be a significant engineering effort, you can still learn that in these FCC classes on how to script custom TDMA, et cetera.

It seems like quite a few of the /siberia/ regulars frequent sex workers, so I thought why not create a thread to discuss our shared pastime.

Posts may include field reports, questions, travel tips, STD prevention, advice etc. Obviously keep it all anonymous and no links to specific sex workers please.

Do you think they'll put We Love Katamari REROLL+ Royal Reverie on sale tomorrow?

Are scientists the new priests?

"healthy masculinity", "male revolutionary", "good male role model" aren't real because men and masculinity are inheritely reactionary

Stop having children. There are more than enough people on the planet as it is, we don't need any more. We're all full up, thank you. Stop. Having. Kids. Reasons to stop having kids:

1. They consume too many resources over the course of their life; your kid drains resources from the rest of the world. Is that what you want?
   
2. Human beings contribute to ecological ruin through overfishing, deforestation, and other such activity, and that includes human overpopulation
   
3. Your kid probably won't amount to much anyway, and if the technocrats succeed in making AI that displaces the entire workforce, then your kid will live in squalor as a result of a lack of economic opportunity, and that's the last thing you want, right?
   
4. The Halocene Extinction is ongoing and we're all going to die, DON'T YOU GET IT, WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE, LARGE SWATHES OF THE PLANET WILL BECOME INHOSPITABLE AND WE'LL BE PACKED LIKE SARDINES INTO THE LANDMASSES THAT ARE LEFT. Is that what you want, for your kid to live in jobless purposeless squalor in a slum with third-worlders from the global south, who they have to fight against tooth and nail in order to secure for themselves what little resources that remain?
   
5. Kids are a pain in the ass anyway, and you won't be able to write that book, or develop that game, or do whatever it is that you wanted to do if you have to drop everything to tend to your child (and you're a piece of shit if you delegate the child rearing to someone else like your in-laws)
   
6. Basically, there are no upsides to having a child, save for the boost to your ego that you might gain for having successfully achieved the biological imperative (not that impressive, I know crackheads who managed to pop out some kids)
   
   

There are many more reasons, I'm sure, but that's more than enough for you to chew on. STOP. HAVING. CHILDREN. STOP IT. Don't do it. You help no one, least of all the child you bring into this boiling piss pot of a planet.

B…bros?? Should we really have voted Hillary in 2016?!?!??
