Rod MesaYeah. A real shame.
Fish Id Wardrobe ⁂@Motorod no need to copy and paste it here, of course.
@Motorod the real shame is you using a screenshot and not just copying and pasting so others could copy and paste easily as well
Reddog@tcritchlow @Motorod Some instances don't have text allowances large enough to copy/paste that amount of text.
MarjorieR@tcritchlow @Motorod the words *are* in the AltText, you can copy and paste from the AltText.
@Motorod @marjolica I see that now, thanks!
Expertenkommision CyberunfallIn Germany wearing a hard hat or gardeing gloves or saftey glasses would be called "passive armament" and you would go to jail for 72h without warrant or catact to a laywer, you would be stripped naked, would be searched and some detained start to set them self on fire in their cells by just rubbing their naked skin fast enough on the matress.
TrimTab 🇺🇦@expertenkommision_cyberunfall @Motorod
Uh. Context matters here in the German laws surrounding the protected right to protest. It is not the outrage you are looking for.
And no idea what you're on about with mattress friction and flammable nudity. Where the heck did you get your info? Are you a hallucinating chat bot?
Trump & Epstein: Biz partners.
Femme Malheureuse@Motorod It would be a shame if protesters learned how to draft press releases and tip sheets to send to journalists when certain militarized government entities gather to conduct a raid, sending them using messaging obsfucating the sender's identity and location.
ZenHeathen 🇨🇦@Motorod Scanners today can usually only tell you when there's a lot of activity on a frequency, not what it is. Almost all police services use encrypted radio now. Also, scanners cannot broadcast, though there are radios which can, which also have a scanning mode. Broadcasting without a licence, or on those particular frequencies (especially deliberate jamming noise) is a federal crime.
These should be known to anyone considering those particular points above.
CautionWIP (he/him) 🏳️🌈🇨🇦🕎@ZenHeathen @Motorod Came here to say this. 👍
You’d think Pump Up the Volume never happened…
@ZenHeathen @Motorod Nice…
Also, GDI, now I have to go listen to the soundtrack again, and I’ve nobody but myself to blame…
@Motorod Such a shame that they wouldn't pay to get Leonard Cohen's version on the soundtrack album, considering how prominently it features in the movie, instead only having Concrete Blonde's cover from deep in the credits. I was so disappointed, that song was the reason I bought the tape. @Caution
@ZenHeathen @Motorod Kinda yes, kinda no, though. The Concrete Blonde version was commissioned because the someone thought the OG version was too dark, but it played during the final broadcast of his show in the film…except that in some later video releases they swapped it to the credits. You can also find a Beastie Boys track that was cut from later releases in some bootlegs.

Joykill@Motorod pretty sure the original author of this post was confused between a protest and a riot.
For one thing, gearing up for violence at a protest (even defensively) can be seen as intent to engage in violence, which could be bad for you if you end up arrested. On the other hand, that defensive gear could save your life, which is more important than getting in trouble with the law.
The scanner thing is fake af and could get you in some real hot water as @ZenHeathen pointed out
Nivex 🐧 📻@Motorod @majorlinux A scanner cannot transmit. That's what makes it a scanner as opposed to a transceiver.
Also, if you do transmit, you light up a big ol' beacon that says "Here I am". We #hamradio folk are pretty good at finding "hidden" transmitters. Look up "fox hunting". If we can do it, you better believe the feds can.
Furthermore, an increasing number of law enforcement agencies are encrypting their traffic now. Of course, it'd be a real shame if they're still using encryption algorithms whose weaknesses are documented in open source receiving software.
Marcus "MajorLinux" Summers@nivex With regards to the scanning, I knew that was a nothing-burger.
Everything else seemed like information that would be a shame to fall into hands…
LevkaPlease don't scatter caltrops where they feds might run over them. It's illegal. You could get fined for littering.
MAKING CALTROPS QUICK
listless@Motorod You can't block tear gas with a bucket, it will just flow under the bucket, or worse, if put in sealed container will burst. Grab with tongs or heat-safe gloves, submerge in soapy water and shake to extinguish.
Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-eOyP_tyDkM
Most respirators don't filter out the chemicals used in tear gas, need filters *for* tear gas
Police radio are often encrypted so you can't listen in, and it's not legal to interfere with their transmissions.
Block misinformation, stay safe.

@Motorod that's why places ban any #SelfProtection gear!
