    that's grim. i think it's been like that off and on most of the last 2 years.

    they censor as a matter of routine. not just outside but inside as well. there's plenty of journalists and random citizens who post a thing on line then get arrested. so, it's more than just 'propaganda' and keeping chinese people from being 'corrupted'. they're censoring their own people as well and limiting communication when it makes them look bad or is perceived as anything at all negative. and by saying that i'm not saying that USA media isn't manipulative or full of bullshit etc but the freedom of speech isn't comparable. also, we know USA gov't sucks. this doesn't mean china gov't is awesome. they can both suck. both things can be true. it's possible that no one is winning.

    i only posted a paraphrase of the conversation about the story. not arguing one way or another. just saying "this is what happened" but, i don't think the internet dome that china enforces is to protect chinese citizens from malware. it's obvious they're blocking sites and stories so they can control the narrative and perception of chinese people when it comes to what is happening in the world. i know it's not all black and white and w/o nuance etc but it's kinda laughable to think it's all about malware and spyware.

    the american born/raised but on chinese olympic team athlete who won gold in snowboard slopestyle has been posting in IG which people in china can't really do. so someone took her to task over it in the comments of one of her posts.. just saying she's getting special treatment.. she said she uses a VPN and anyone can download a VPN from apple's app store but the reply was "no we can't.. we don't have access to the app store". interesting conversations being had due to olympic games i guess. so it goes.

    that dude who won just stomped the shit out of his final run. crushed it. i think he won silver and bronze at previous olympics. perfect time for shawn white to retire from competition.

    if you get a soundcheck you can probably pull it off.

    going to be interesting when all the data gets peer reviewed and published. they studied the top 500 facebook groups in the USA to see what's what and of course it's bad news. the data is going to be peer reviewed and shared.

    maybe but that's where a cop's brains are so he'll probably still be disabled.

    he's one half of Einoma which is excellent imo. i have one of his solo releases.. Safn 2006 - 2009 (2010) - which i haven't listened to in a while but like. a lot of the stuff i've heard has an 'academic' tinge to it or something but maybe that's just how it sounds. when i had a job in a synth shop we sold records too and would get lot's of reissues of older computer music things.. some of which was cool and some which didn't do anything for me. i tend not to differentiate between genres so much when it comes to electronic music that is experimental in some way and just assume it's all electronic music and i find stuff i like and that's that. isn't Curtis Roads a professor somewhere? as well as writing books he's a teacher and that's his day job? idk. don't really follow him. only heard about him when he opened for autechre in LA in 2000 or whenever that was.

    watched a doc about tha trial and ross ulbricht. it's so crazy. he got railroaded for sure. half the trial hinged on who was the "dread pirate roberts" user. it could've been anyone and there was more than one user using that name but there's one guy who was the main user and he split and 'donated' the username to ross basically shifting all the blame to him and no one picked up on it. the defense was unable to make this clear.. that literally anyone could've been posting as dread pirate roberts. it's all really shitty and sad. double life sentence is just crazy.

    just filthy. i remember some analyst saying "most people slow down a bit when they get the puck but mcdavid seems to skate faster with the puck than without it" which seems accurate. dude is ridiculous.
