I hate politics and I generally try to avoid positing about it for my own peace of mind. But it's nauseating to see how some people in the world refer to him as "president". He was as "president" and came to power as "democratically" as all those who sent their condolences including but not limited to:

  • Taliban (Afghanistan)
  • Putin (Russia)
  • Xi (China)
  • Bashar Asad (Syria)
  • Lebenan militia
  • Iraqi militia
  • Erdogan (Turkey)
  • Rafael Grossi (IAEA)

Decide for yourself!

At the end of Obama's term, he declassified some documents showing how USA orchestrated the coup. But still some major parts were blacked out. I imagine what they did is so severe that still after 70 years or so, they still don't have the guts to release the full documents of what they have done and what damage they have caused.

I'll leave this link here just in case other fedizens don't know what you were talking about:

Roy on one of his many ledges. Looking out. And looking back at me. He's doing that cat thing where they pretend they aren't hurt but his front leg got tweaked. That's an occupational hazard for a cat this big. Something about physics and gravity and mass and decelerations sometimes just gangs up on him. But he's ok.

You get a hint of his size when he stands like that. Which he does a lot. Sometimes he tries to help me use the door knob if I'm being slow

The cat Roy looking out from window while sitting on window ledge. He's a tuxedo color scheme. Black and white.

About an hour ago, the sky turned blood red over Bavaria, Germany. It's the first time I've ever seen an in my life. It was so bright to be easily visible with the naked eye. An absolutely jawdropping experience. ๐Ÿ––๐Ÿ˜ณโœจ

cc @tagesschau @DLR @dlr_next @stim3on

at 22:29 they got a lot brighter, covering half if the sky; even some green visible at the bottom; another 10s exposure
vertical 10s exposure at 22:37
before fading again, they moved westward in front of the moon, here an 10s exposure at 22:46 showing distinct lines shaped by the magnetic field

Do you have a Panasonic NeoFile business card reader & PDA??

Do you also have the optional serial cable and NeoLink software? ๐Ÿ’พ

Iโ€™d love to play around with mine but the software isnโ€™t archived and the serial port seems unique. ๐Ÿ˜ซ

Please share to help me find it! ๐Ÿคž

Debian Users - Be aware the maintainer of the KeePassXC package for Debian has unilaterally decided to remove ALL features from it. You will need to switch to keepassxc-full to maintain capabilities once this lands outside of testing/sid.

@lieven@mastodon-belgium.be avatar

@RL_Dane @Ray_Of_Sunlight @keepassxc looks to be security related when reading https://packages.debian.org/sid/keepassxc: This package includes only the bare minimal functionality, and no security complications like networking, SSH agent, browser plugin, fdo secret storage. See keepassxc-full if you absolutely need those.

#OTD in 1926.

C. S. Lewis and J. R. R. Tolkien first meet in Oxford.

Both men served on the English faculty at Oxford University and were active in the informal Oxford literary group known as the Inklings. The Inklings were literary enthusiasts who praised the value of narrative in fiction and encouraged the writing of fantasy.
