Well you’ll have to find another site then.
This isn’t necessarily nefarious on their part. It is owned by a US registered nonprofit. Most likely their servers and staff/volunteers are in the US. This consent form is more informational likely to comply with GDPR so that you know where your data will end up.
While it does show a lack of action, I’m not too unhappy about them failing to agree to plunge into a war with Russia
For Matrix I used to be on the main one (matrix.org) and that is generally where I’d recommend beginning. Now I host my own server so that is the one I’m on, but probably not worth it unless you like tinkering
You aren’t wrong, I indeed did assume it was my home country. In my defense it usually is.
https://www.aolifo.de/ is where I picked up the previous volumes. I plan to contact them to see if they have an estimate on this volume
Edit: reply from them, they’ve ordered and are expecting the books in 4-6 weeks. I asked specifically about the English version
My assumption goes more towards installing malware of some sort.
This is already happening. I’ve seen a few posts on LinkedIn pushing this narrative. So you were spot on here
I used Shadowsocks when I lived there. You have to set it up and run it yourself. A big benefit is when they crack down periodically on the big VPN players this usually flies under the radar since it is just you connecting back to your own server

Seems like the actual name, and some searching points to both Mads and Mikkelsen being commonish names for the area
Looks like a legit name. CBP tweeted about him
A lot of good ones already mentioned so some that haven’t been yet:
Length aside it is a good list, I more meant it as a don’t get discouraged if you don’t finish it all in a year
I definitely understand where you are coming from with Capital. It really isn’t one of the more enjoyable reads out there, but it is essential. For that one it might be worth joining a reading group to make it more digestible
That’s an ambitious list for a year, depending of course on your reading speed and free time. Otherwise that is a nice selection. My only critiques would be that you are missing Capital, unless you’ve already read it, and that some of the others should be in the essentials(namely Lenin’s what is to be done and left wing). That being said they are on your list so it is just a very minor thing
Yea when I lived in the Netherlands I was surprised about dental not being covered as in the US it was always portrayed as a socialist hellscape in terms of healthcare
Source from 2014 that backs the 10-12%
Thanks for that additional info. I’ll poke around a bit and see what I can find since you also mentioned hosting Matrix(I run an instance personally so will check usage info on mine). I’ll fully admit most of my experience is with the big 3 cloud companies, at least professionally.
I’ll also echo what another comrade mentioned in that a CDN would be helpful here.
I think it is safe to say we might need a bit more information to make a good suggestion here. Like how much storage do you currently need?
As said by others AWS(also GCP and Azure) can get really nasty with lock in(both egress fees and their specific offerings). All 3 are also US based so there is a chance they shut you down because they don’t like the content.
Happy to discuss it a bit more and see where I can help.
Either I missed the sarcasm in your comment or you possibly missed the point this is making. My take away from the diagram is that it is ‘helpful’ in seeing what a mess of players it is
No comment on the textbook your are writing something on as I haven’t read it.
As for degrees and imposter syndrome, I feel you on that. Though as a counter point I recently finished a masters degree. Many of my classmates who also successfully graduated didn’t really understand many concepts in the program, they were confused in class discussion and did poorly on exams. That said they still have degrees. It also is worth mentioning that many lecturers lacked real world experience so could only state theory which doesn’t hold up in reality. One even made a technically incorrect statement regarding how PKI works. So with that in mind, don’t let a degree be the only determining factor.
Also 2 of the 3 highest scoring students in the program have completely unrelated undergraduate degrees. So your STEM degree can still hold weight in more social science fields.
