Two more explosions in nearby proximity.

Office of supreme leader in city center might have been targeted (according to nearby residents).

Internet connectivity remains the same as before.

I just heard 3 explosions. It appears that the notorious ministry of intelligence might have been targeted.

I decided to remain unmarried and childless long time ago (when it was less fashionable in my local culture). And it was the best decision of my entire life. I agree with most of the below recent UNEP report. With the exception of "There is still time" point.

Without big changes, this is what the environment will look like in 2050

The seventh edition of the Global Environment Outlook (GEO-7) offers a stark vision of the decades to come. But its authors say the worst forecasts can still be avoided if countries quickly take meaningful steps to address environmental degradation.

After two weeks long Internet blackout during the brutal suppression of protests, the 1st service Islamic regime opened was the Google search. Since it is the default search engine on most desktop browsers and mobile phones, people were clueless to find the local filternet domestic sites without knowing the URL.

Ironically this made it possible to hard-code its IP for Gmail, GMaps, Google News (and most other Google domains) in `/etc/hosts` to access them.

It appears that the war is most likely. Just to keep it clear, the in-place Islamic regime of Iran is not and was never reformable by any means (to the extent suggested by left or right wing political analysts in the west). The so called reformist of the establishment and the hard line conservatives are ideologically, practically and historically the two sides of the same coin.

I might lose my Internet connectivity for a long unforeseeable period.

I am doing volunteer review of some of the FOSDEM 2026 videos. The SReview interface brought up a talk by @erindesu on implementing a minimal Wayland compositer on an OpenWrt fork (Turris Omnia NG) for a 240x240 pixel SPI interface display. Without any dedicated GPU on a embedded class Power ISA based CPU.

Video is not yet published. But slides are uploaded:

p.s.: Unfortunately the video does not show running DOOM on the router.

#FOSDEM ask: if you are willing to help review and cut videos, please reach out to myself or @zev333
