This is classic. Remember, every time the state pushes the story about breaking privacy and encryption to "fight crime", it has nothing to do with actually "fighting crime".

What if I told you that a 32 year old German woman unexpectedly pulls out a knife and starts to stab passengers in a bus, injuring 6 passengers, three critically. Three muslimas, fearing for their children, throw themselves at this woman, manage to wrestle the knife away from her and keep her down until the situation can be resolved. Oh? You didn't hear about that? Well. It just happened. Last Friday. (article in German) https://www.t-online.de/nachrichten/panorama/kriminalitaet/id_100479780/siegen-drei-muslimische-muetter-stoppten-messer-angreiferin.html
Bei Messerangriff in Siegen wurden drei Mütter zu Heldinnen

Zwei Opfer des Messerangriffs schweben noch in Lebensgefahr. Jetzt wird bekannt: Drei muslimische Frauen verhinderten wohl Schlimmeres.

That is very terrible... Both Israel and Hamas military leaders should go to prison for starting all this. Just make two states, why do we need this endless war?

It is interesting that Ibis decided to drop
#pandas from backends. Couple of years ago it was hard to imagine something like this. I hope #polars become a new standard soon. Pandas API is terrible...

Anarchist News: **Anti-war statement**

"From avtonom dot org We have stated from the very start that the beginning of a full-scale war in Ukraine on February 24, 2022 is an imperialist aggression of the Russian state. That is still true. Our position on the war in Ukraine "Autonomous Action" is not on the side of the Ukrainian state - and not on the side of any other state. However, in the current circumstances, the victory of Russia is not beneficial to the peoples of neither Ukraine, nor Russia, nor Belarus. Fighting against Russian aggression is now beneficial to everyone…"
