Want to bring Tor to your campus? Check out @eff 's Tor University Challenge encouraging universities to run Tor relays on their networks to support the Tor network and give students hands-on experience with real-world digital public infrastructure. If your campus supports research and an open internet, this is a concrete way to contribute: https://toruniversity.eff.org/

really? nobody's talking about this? fine.
archinstall is adding age verification.
https://github.com/archlinux/archinstall/pull/4290

i do recommend you use artix with openrc anyway since systemd has already implemented a birthdate field to user records
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/40954

and also since the arch linux maintainers are being particularly hush-hush about this (see first link, locked as "too heated" when there was basically zero heat, apart from CelestifyX making that final meaningless quip)

read all about it... okay time to do the tags

@enigmatico
i find openrc to be somewhat similar to systemd, and also easier to modify (in that custom init scripts are easier to write)
`systemctl enable/disable` is `rc-update add/del` and `systemctl stop/(re)start` is `rc-service <service> stop/(re)start`
the only issue ive found is that a systemd > openrc migration is bumpy

and yeah i know running from the problem wont solve it but what else can we do now?

And on a Completely Related Note, I run an unofficial Furnace community, as a person who's been attacked multiple times for basically no reason by tildearrow.
All relevant information is at https://swirly.architectenterprises.net/furnace-community.html, including rules, information, rationale for creation, and methods of interacting (of which so far we have Matrix, IRC, and XMPP).

How (racist/sexist/whatever) harassment on Mastodon works:

1. Harasser replies to their target's post, with the reply set to "followers only", saying the most vile stuff you can imagine.

2. All the harasser's followers join in on the harassment, posting more vile stuff.

3. Nobody but the target and the harassment crew can see the vile stuff that was said.

4. Target is traumatized. Nobody else can see why.

5. Everybody says "I don't see it so it's not happening."
