You don't hear much about how Netanyahu and company have warrants out for being war criminals.

Join in condemning their war crimes, not in aiding and abetting them.

Oh good grief, this summary is both farcical and tragic: also, Trump has fucked air travel for at least the next two years, never mind automobiles and logistics. The supply chain shock will get as bad as 2022 within a couple of months—then keep getting worse.

Do you understand why Trump has lifted the oil sanctions that were punishing Iran, the country he’s bombing, and Russia, the country that’s helping it?

Do you understand why Trump is sending 5,000 Marines to sail through the Strait of Hormuz while complaining that none of our friends and allies will help him reopen it?

Here's the whole explanation.

Autistic people will do very well with cluade.ai. I have it criticise me at the end of every session. NeuroTypical peiople would not do that. It is purely rational, I do not have to worry about its emotions. Neurotypical people will waste mental resourcs being polite. I can happily look at a terminal all day and not talk to anyone.

The extent to which core linux projects are laying the groundwork for age verification is very concerning.

I understand why some believe they are compelled to do so, and why others feel that it may be better to implement the most minimal conforming implementation in the hopes of fending off something worse.

But the line must be drawn such that no threat can obligate an OS to collect/store personal information - without that freedom, we face an uphill fight to protect general purpose computing.

the pressure from social media worked. In systemd, age verification has finally been reverted and removed for good. Linux is always for privacy conscious users, it isn't just another Microslop SlopOS https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/41179 thanks @reddy_1975 for the heads up!

EDIT: they rejected the PR. So keep fight on! systemd folks are cowards and enabling this mess.

Don't you understand?

So the Knight Foundation is one of the investors in Bluesky, via the $100 million funding round led by a crypto fund almost a year ago but only just announced.

It's a bad move. The logic is, to put it mildly, unpersuasive. I'll be writing about this soon.
