Oh there's several ways, especially if you have poor opsec. People used to raid people's twitch accounts and bring down their internet connections by looking for their username on Skype which had a vulnerability which they could use to find a person's IP.

For swatters on the otherhand, they tend to either know the streamer themselves or they tend to be groups like KiwiFarms who are a lot more organised and do a lot of research and detective work, like looking at the video, looking for usernames elsewhere, looking for emails, and looking for location clues. It's really fucked up. They found Keffels's Motel by the sheets in her room. It's bad enough if you do not think about these things and just have sloppy OpSec, but even if you do, they can still find you.

A lot more regularly that they do in the rest of the UK.

So (not so) fun fact: Keffals, who was targeted by KiwiFarms for being trans (yes that's all) and got Swatted. She then went to stay with another streamer (EllenFromNowOn) in Northern Ireland. Just for information sake, Northern Ireland is still a bit rocky security wise, Police there still carry guns on the regular. So when she went there, Ellen called up the police and explained the situation to them (they had never heard of Swatting weirdly enough).

Sure enough, someone found her flat, posted her address (with a message referencing a Unionist Slogan, Ellen was from the Catholic Community), and sure enough, the police came. Instead of raiding her all guns blasing (which they normally would) they saw the warning, knocked on the door, saw nothing was wrong, called off the squaddies, and came in to basically make sure everything was okay.

Bare in mind, this was in Northern Ireland, a place where the Police still drive Armored cars and have regular riots, and they handled this better than the Police in London, Ontario.

Let's be very Frank with you, republicans want that. Not the rank and file, but the politicians that want control over the United States.

What they want from Trump is a rubber stamp to do whatever they want.

So Plasma has Activities, which is something I noticed a while back. I haven't really found any use for it other than maybe having a different desktop layout so I was wondering what everyone else used it for.

No shade to the people who added it, just curious.

Wanna know the funniest part? All this bullshit is based on a disproven theory about wolves, but then 4chan adopted as a kinda meme and then these fuckers took it seriously. Absolute fucking clown shit.

In my experience the people who describe people as "Alphas and Betas" are almost always described as "betas" by their own language.

Imagine seeing a sign demanding ending a genocide and calling it antisemitic.

Know what's funny? The way politics is going, this could happen but with whoever becomes PM after Sunak because HOO BOY SHIT'S GETTING REALLY FUCKING WILD HERE.

Like the current PM made a transphobic Jibe to the Leader of the opposition WHILE THE MOTHER OF A MURDERED TRANSGENDER TEENAGER WAS IN THE FUCKING GALLERY and refused to apologize. Not to long ago we had a scheme to make kids sing this fucking bullshit in schools because people identify with their home nation more than the UK, not to mention all the absolute horseshit that regularly comes out of the UK.

More like: People on the internet being critical of the current system, Americans on the internet saying "COMMUNISM BAD" as if USSR style state capitalism is the only other possible option.
