I've said it before an I'll say it again: This entire project of identity verification with Apple/Google-account bound mobile devices is going to lead the continent down a dark, dark path into full technological submission to the US

I'm currently reading Frank Herbert's "Dune" for the first time.

I was struck by this passage. It comes right after the Reverend Mother has tested Paul Atreides. She is talking with him.

"𝗢𝗻𝗰𝗲, 𝗺𝗲𝗻 𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗼 𝗺𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗵𝗼𝗽𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝘀𝗲𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺 𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗲. 𝗕𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝘆 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗺𝗶𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗺𝗲𝗻 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗺𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗹𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺."

How apropos seventy years later.

Four solid months into my Linux journey, and I had a realization:

I will never need Microsoft Windows again, for anything. I really cannot express how liberating this feels.

It feels like escaping the matrix.

Olive groves burned, cars torched, children shot dead — Israel’s armed forces and violent settlers are mercilessly attacking #Palestinian communities daily and forcing them from their homes.

Sickeningly, travel giant Booking.com is listing holiday destinations on this stolen land and taking a cut from every stay. It’s clear: Booking.com is enabling a war crime

Kindly stop using this company xxx

Wil iedereen die het kan opbrengen mij even in een comment laten weten dat ze er blij mee zijn dat ProcoliX en de Open Internet Discourse Foundation zoveel tijd, geld en moeite stopt in het draaien en promoten van de Fediverse? Dat heb ik even nodig, want het voelt me iets te vaak en iets te hard alsof we het allemaal voor niets doen. Alsof het niet goed genoeg is en we beter gewoon keihard geld kunnen besparen door het allemaal niet te doen.
