The Warrior's bland acronym, MMI, obscures the true horror of this monstrosity. Its inventors promise a new era of genius, but meanwhile unscrupulous power brokers use its forcible installation to violate the sanctity of unwilling human minds. They are creating their own private army of demons.

Greenway suggests that the Wobblies stumbled upon this modus operandi as a means of combating the street bands of the Salvation Army and the Volunteers of America, who frequently would drown out Wobbly speakers in a "cacophony of cornets and tamborines." One enterprising IWW organizer, wishing to combat the forces of obscurantist "pie in the sky" theology, "retired long enough to organize a brass band of his own.

Alright, this is too good to be bait, so I'll just say it straight up: CBT on the internet always, always means Cock and Ball Torture. Always.

probably, why didn't you install it through the package manager?

Crawl OST by Alex Yoder. All his other stuff is pretty good as well, but this one is my absolute favorite. Too bad he doesn't release stuff very often.

"You will eat, by and by, in that glorious land in the sky, way up high. Work and pray; live on hay. You'll get pie in the sky when you die! ...That's a lie..."

i don't want to sound mean here, but the whole point of an invite system is that only relatively trusted people can get in. giving invites away to anyone asking for it would mostly defeat the point.

basically an agreement between 14 countries to share signals intelligence amongst one another. effectively, if your data gets captured in Sweden, all the participating states are able to get their hands on it. check out the Wikipedia article for more details on 14 eyes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_Eyes#Fourteen_Eyes

not to discredit what they do and what's been said, but i think it's important to keep in mind (with one's threat model in mind also) that they're based in Sweden, a 14 eyes country.
