UPDATE: https://chaos.social/@sleepyowl/116257348164580770

Kind and cherished FOSS and computing freedom advocate @sleepyowl (Joyce Ng) has gone missing and there is reason to fear she may have been apprehended by authorities, possibly likely even for being framed. Nobody has been able to reach her and many of us are worried for her safety.

Joyce does work on verifiable open source hardware. She also has been an activist pushing against the rise of far-right Christian nationalism globally but especially in Singapore. Because of this and her identity, she has people who would like to see bad things happen to her.

Probably for this reason, she may have been misidentified by Five Eyes as being a threat actor. Joyce wrote about this concern in November, posting a threatening screenshot where she was tipped off https://bitowl.online/about

Please spread this wide. Hopefully this is a false alarm but Joyce is a kind-hearted person who fights for human rights and computing freedom; many of us are worried for her safety.

Attached: 1 image Have no fear, 'cause I iz here. Unfortunately, this disappearance was not a false alarm. A few of us were arrested on the evening of 16 March, and all but one person was released on bail on the 18th. I am doing alright myself, although some were traumatized by the experience. We will need some time to rest, decompress and consider our legal options. I will provide more details about what transpired when we are able to do so. Thank you all for your concern & support! With love, Joyce/BitOwl

Fair, but, to play devil's advocate for a moment, what's different from getting fruit of different quality from the vendor?

Intent?

Ok, so one difference is that the fruit seller wouldn't try to sell worse product, just to see if he could get away with it.

No, wait, he would, but he'd be evil.

The media is lying to you. There is no actual discernable difference between a Left Twix and a Right Twix. They manufactured this lie to divide us. Follow me for more brutal but necessary truths.

I finally figured out the Danish counting words work.

Halvtreds. "Half-the-third": (Two of twenty and) half of the third = 50.

They're counting cigarette packs.

Dateline: bus interchange. A Chinese speaking man pivoting from his phone call to telling an older Anglo man complaining “speak English” “to stop being a nosy f**king c**t” was just a thing of beauty.
@kevlin rw-r--r-- is clearly Indonesian!

#Curling is hilarious. It's in the centre of the Venn diagram that intersects crown green bowling, using a Ewbank while drunk, masturbating, and dogs that drag-scoot their backsides across the floor.
