nothing better than Signal
Signal was developed with financial backing by the CIA, so do with that information what you will.

NPR News is probably what you’re looking for. sports and celebrity stuff is relegated to the Culture section, which is its own separate thing (although there are a couple of music stories that seem to have been misplaced). here is the RSS feed for the News section: https://feeds.npr.org/1001/rss.xml

he absolutely carried Stargate Atlantis, it was weird to see him in Aquaman
Aquaman. the visual effects were ridiculous, the characters were one-dimensional, the soundtrack was…something, and the overall tone was that of a testosterone firehose to the face. i said the eight deadly words about halfway through, and i was thoroughly bored out of my mind despite action scene after action scene after action scene…the only reason why i didn’t just get up and leave was because i was watching with a group
AnnaArchivist is not the asshole here. this is extremely out-of-line and entitled behavior on CurrentRisk’s part, whining about something as insignificant as download speeds and hounding AnnaArchivist for a response she is not obligated to give, on a post that’s combative and immature and generally not worthy of her consideration, when she has so many better things to be doing
not because she is vile — because she is a Republican. she has sacrificed her better nature for power and closeness to Trump. there is no particular reason why she is cruel, of course, because cruelty is the point.

. it’s gonna pull in some dependencies and a proprietary driver, and probably break Secure Boot if you have it set up, but that’s how i got it to work on Fedora (except i used dnf, of course)
tenure was created to prevent nazi interference with academic freedom. and here we see nazi interference with academic freedom thwarted by tenure

i’m not sure either, but either way, a hurt dog will holler ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
that’s all well and good, but one of the two will get in office no matter what. might as well suck it up and vote for the lesser evil.
besides, you said yourself which one you’d prefer. you’d flee the country if Trump got into office, and you acknowledge that the Democrats can be shamed into doing the right thing (unlike the Republicans). if it makes the choice more palatable, think of it not as a vote for someone but a vote against someone. not voting at all is complicity.
would you rather Trump be in office instead?
it isn’t obvious to anyone reading mainstream news. news orgs are bending over backwards to obfuscate who’s actually doing the killing (one particularly egregious example being the NYT writing a whole-ass haiku instead of stating that Israeli soldiers opened fire on Palestinians seeking aid). sure, this particular headline would be ok if it was common knowledge that Israel is causing the wanton destruction in Gaza, but thanks to every other headline being like this, it isn’t
this was on purpose. the World Central Kitchen notified the IDF about their movement, and their vehicles were clearly marked. there is no way this was an accident. the IDF purposely killed aid workers delivering food to Gaza. if this isn’t an indicator of their genocidal intentions, i don’t know what is

i refuse to pirate indie games. i will always buy games that are independently released or from small publishers because 1. they’re just trying to break even (unlike publishers like EA and Activision who have millions of fans lining up to buy their repetitive junk) and 2. they almost never have DRM. i’ll also buy my music for similar reasons; 99% of artists can barely make a living and i really do not want to contribute to that statistic
money isn’t a birthright, but food, water, shelter, clothes, and healthcare are. if we can’t be given those, we should at least be given the money to get them
I looked up the Open Technology Fund on Wikipedia and it has no relation to the CIA. well, except that its parent agency (Radio Free Asia) is part of the US government like the CIA is. they don’t seem to work together at all, and they’re under the purview of two different branches of government
besides, as other commenters have said, they’re open source and they’ve been audited. anyone can build the client themselves (with any potential backdoors removed) and set up their own server. would the CIA allow for that?
