:( Please tell me they aren't all headed for the dump :(

It's hard to find homes for old pianos since so many people live in smaller spaces now, and yes, they're so big and heavy. But the beautiful workmanship on old ones... seems a shame.

China and Turkey pioneered harassing their own and other citizens on foreign soil; now India is normalizing it further. These tactics need to get slapped down and HARD otherwise it'll just start happening everywhere. FFS western nations, kick out their diplomats and charge these foreign agents with terrorism or something!

Wow, today is a banner day. Drumpf getting hammered for over $350M for realestate fraud, and now this.

It's Friday night, I was already planning to down a few, but this makes it an occasion! :)

Paul Manafort, Steve Bannon, Roger Stone, Erik Prince ... just my speculations.

Oh, but that will all happen after the rich jerks who caused all this are dead, so it doesn't matter! Why would they do anything to stop it?

EDIT: Plus they already have their apocalypse bunkers lined up so even if it all hits sooner, who cares about the poors right?

Funny how that worked out huh? All the benefits of personhood, but none of the downsides, like mortality, having to pay fair taxes, incarceration for crimes, possible death penalty for killing citizens ...

Fair enough... archive.is and other solutions then to capture their pages before/after changes.

The founders of the Proud Boys also had Canadian roots, did they not? Gavin McInnes

Seamonkey (Mozilla browser/email/news suite) still exists! https://www.seamonkey-project.org/dev/

And there's even still a build of uBlock Origin for it! https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/

There is still hope, if we keep the open tools alive...

Posted from freshly-installed Seamonkey browser with uBlock Origin :)

Update: This is awesome. To get it working I had to install some python3 dependencies since I'd recently upgraded my box. If the main DeGourou.py script isn't running, try installing these:

$ pip3 install lxml pycryptodome cryptography charset_normalizer

(EDIT: just read requirements.txt it gives the above and some other dependencies. Duh.)

Then download, while logged into archive.org, your borrowed book (download link should be "URLLink.acsm"; then run

$ python3 ./DeGourou.py -f /tmp/URLLink.acsm

... and the PDF with its proper filename will be saved into the curret directory.
