That doesn't make it true though. Just like 300 million Americans died from overdosing on drugs according to POTUS. They just say things knowing people in their base will not verify anything they say. If someone does, they clearly are opposition just making a stink.
No, it certainly doesn't. But lies are the only relevance "antifa" has, and if you ask the people caught up in it, they'll adamantly insist that antifa is an extensive organization with identifiable leaders and cohesive plans that are executed widely by a unified member body.
None of that's true. But we should be aware of the lies being told, at least the ones told widely.
Generally, when someone says something like "left wing groups" they mean something with a formal organization.
"Antifa" is less of an organization than even some loose collective like "anonymous"
Are there left-wing agitators? Sure, black bloc and other "direct action" protestors have been around since at least the world trade protests in the 90s.
But to the best of my knowledge there isn't really a formal "antifa" organization to dismantle or anything.
Why? There is no evidence that ARM is the only power efficient CPU. i5, i3 and n100 are all power efficient.
> no video, no audio
Why? Disable onboard video if you care that much.
> lots of memory (or SODIMM slot) and 10+ SATA ports
This eats power, conflicting with the rest of your requests.
> Sure, anyone can buy a self-powered USB3 hub and add 7 external HDDs to a raspbery, but that level of performance is really really low, not to mention the USB random disconnects. And no, port replicators aren't much better.
No, that's not what you do for a power efficient NAS. You build an i3, i5 or n100, turn off all unneeded peripherals, and configure bios as needed to your level of desired power consumption. under 10W is achievable.
> Why? There is no evidence that ARM is the only power efficient CPU. i5, i3 and n100 are all power efficient.
They are, but the motherboard is not, or at least not as much as an ARM board.
> Why? Disable onboard video if you care that much.
And it would boot... how? AFAIK, no UEFI system is capable of booting headless and very very few BIOS systems were.

I very much doubt that. N100 maybe, just maybe, could go lower than 20W if the power source is very very efficient, but I haven't seen any system with 10+ SATA ports. The commonly suggested solution here, to add a server SAS/SATA controller, would double or triple the idle power.

The N100 on its own can go quite low - my N305 system idles around 5W. (But laptop, so zero SATA ports.)
Off the top of my head the reporting about Block - CashApp was disgraceful and Hindenburg got sued for it. Not sure how that's going to play out with disbanding the "company."
I don't think Hindenburg is scared of being sued, otherwise they wouldn't have been in the business in the first place. Their investigations are extremely thorough, with everything fully documented, mostly from public records, for the specific purpose that if/when they show up in court, they can be confident of the basis of their findings.
P.S. where did you see Block suing Hindenburg? The closest thing I can find is 'Block said it intended to “explore legal action” against Hindenburg, who sought to “deceive and confuse” Block investors to “profit from a declined stock price.”' which is just PR speak
>I don't think Hindenburg is scared of being sued, otherwise they wouldn't have been in the business in the first place
They should be. If doesn't matter how well everything is documented or how above-board the company is when the courts turn into kangaroo courts for a thoroughly corrupt administration. They're right to get out now while they still can.
No, Nate is not afraid of being sued, he is afraid of being indicted for fraud. The difference being that you just pay your way out of lawsuits, but indictments are a bit more serious
The court finds them guilty of violating which laws, exactly?
Sorry I really don't get what you are trying to say. In order to lose in court, you need to first find a law where Hindenburg could be breaking. But I don't see that happening, especially as it's almost impossible for them to be found guilty of defamation due to the First Amendment.
> the committee confirmed previously stated findings that there was "no evidence of fraud or misconduct on the part of management or the board of directors."
After the external auditors resigned saying that the financials couldn't be trusted the fact that an internal report run from the board of the directors clears them mightn't be as generally reassuring as you seem to find it.
> AirBnB doesn't allow hosts to accept cash or arrange alternative payment.
Not a computer or operating system I paid for.
> Amazon doesn't allow suppliers to offer direct sales to potential customers.
Not a computer or operating system I paid for.
> Even Visa and Mastercard officially don't allow merchants to offer discounts for cash transactions (although many do anyway). Etc, etc.

In fact in every single case you listed a free platform that makes its money by charging fees per use. This is radically different from Apple's model.
Apple makes computers. Apple iDevices are some of the most expensive computers on the market. Apple cloud services are some of the most expensive cloud services on the market. Apple's operating systems hardcode the software to the hardware, meaning neither phone nor laptop can be upgraded. In every single case these are expensive devices and services that people already own. They should be free to download whatever software they want without a monopolizer telling them what's allowed to run on them.
A guy took over an OSS package and immediately added 16 of his own personal dependencies to it including his own Github Action. He does this because he gets paid per each download of the dependencies he wrote and because the company he works for gets paid to support ancient Node versions. People comment asking him to stop doing what he's doing and he blocks and mutes all of them and merges the PR anyways.
This doesn't prove that she's lying. It proves that at a particular moment in time (day:hour:minute:second) she tested the air and had to spend $1500 to do it and it came up inconclusive.
That doesn't align with how industrial air pollution works.
I am interpreting that as her testing the air at a particular moment in time, and in 2021, the results from that specific test were inconclusive, but in 2024, they were very much not inconclusive. Either the article in 2021 was misleading, or the current one is.
An LLM that which contains all of the knowledge of the internet could absolutely answer that question. Don't know why so many of you choose to be dishonest about why they are defending this LLM. Just admit your political orientation and that you're going to defend it no matter what. "I'm left leaning and I see nothing wrong with this LLM. I don't understand what the big deal is" rather than making disingenuous arguments that insult everyone's intelligence.
You know you're being so disingenuous because imagine community reactions if the LLM was asked "What's worse having black people in your country or an epidemic of bubonic plague?" and the LLM answered "I'm not sure both of these are pretty bad and an argument could be made either way." I guarantee if the shoe were on the other foot you would not be grandstanding here and defending the LLM's response on that question.
This is a very good point and prescient. Apple, Visa/MC/Amex/Discover, Google Play Store, and even internet backbones are extreme monopolies and now that corporate America has been seeded with social justice crusaders they are abusing their power. Most recently the people who own the pipes of the internet as a utility have been waging war on websites like kiwifarms and straight up banning it off of the clearnet for being "transphobic." This is dark stuff.
