Debugging Talos II would be a lot easier if I actually had a Talos II machine and weren't trying to meatpuppet my partner
@lottie Meatpuppeting is like sockpuppeting but you're puppeting another person as opposed to a fake account
@lottie I think it's best to explain it by example.
So like say you wanna influence a debate or w/e.
You create a fake account and basically use that to bolster support for your side, whilst continuing to use your main account. That account is a sockpuppet, and you are sockpuppeting.
@lottie (the fake account is the sockpuppet)
@lottie https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sockpuppet_(Internet) for more detail and whatnot
@lottie tl;dr meatpuppeting is like sockpuppeting but you're using a friend or ally or w/e to do it
@lottie Kinda but much smaller
@Elizafox This is the first I've actually heard of anyone with a Talos II, legit
This isn't as gross as it sounds I promise
