    1. I’d be fine with any. Trying Fedora, or maybe Debian. But I’d rather set up networking at the qemu level so the vm only has access to what I want it to.
    2. I don’t know how it would work, but I can create a new device id and make a new wireguard conf file. I don’t know why this wouldn’t work with any other conf/interface on my host.
    3. I want this to be physical router agnostic, as the host is a laptop. Only the vpn and host should be exposed to the VM.










  • “Exact quotes can be misinformation” I’m glad we agree. In all seriousness, it’s not exactly hard to intentionally or even accidentally mischaracterize a direct quote by taking it out of context.

    As for the worst things, I think the Bangladesh genocide is not mentioned enough. Though if you type into google “Henry Kissinger [insert any country here]” you’ll definitely find something horrific.

    The “right” of this country hates the ADL as well. They’ve pretty consistently fought the American right and extremism in this country, from the red scare to the civil rights movement to LGBT rights to Trumpism, internet radicalization and the alt-right in the present.

    What I would describe as the root of their hypocrisy is cowardice. That’s what I see when they give powerful people like Musk and Kissinger a free pass. It’s a short walk from cooperation and dialogue to outright complicity. To say it’s been ‘captured’ almost absolves it of responsibility; these are clearly choices made by the leadership, not puppeteered by outside influence.

    Quite frankly, the ADL commemorating him makes my blood boil. To be clear, they do some absolutely vital work combatting and monitoring hatred in the US, and I have been angered by the straight-up conspiracy theories about them. They are undoubtedly a scapegoat of a diverse swath of political movements. But between this (and Greenblatt’s recent defense of Musk), I cannot endorse them.

    It seems like it’s easier to pick some prominent (often Jewish) person or organization to scapegoat than to actually confront the depths of American foreign policy, police brutality, etc. There’s no point to policing people’s anger towards Kissinger. He deserves much worse. But I cannot be fully comfortable with where it leads.
