#Iran has launched dozens of kamikaze drones at #Israel. Their flight time is estimated to be several hours, allowing air defence and the civilian population to thoroughly prepare for their arrival. Let us all hope that this will remain the only wave of attack and that there will be no casualties. A great war in the middle east is the last thing we, as humanity, currently need.
The #MiddleAges were a dark time when people considered the Earth to be flat, when the church suppressed enlightenment and when science stagnated as a result of conflict with religious beliefs.
#Breaking: “Several gunmen in combat fatigues burst into a big concert hall in #moscow and fired automatic weapons at the crowd, killing and injuring an unspecified number of people, #russian media said.”
Something makes me fear that #putin may use this as an excuse for further escalation and terror against civilians. #russia
I have really no understanding for #Signal's decision not to let us use the app on secondary mobile devices, like it's possible with WhatsApp on tablets. The fact that the independent #MollyIM client has already implemented that feature shows that it's not a technical issue but a design decision. Just try out @mollyim, it's awesome! 😎
@danie10 The SIM card doesn't really have much to do with that, because when you install Molly on your Android tablet, you can choose to link it to your existing Signal installation by scanning a QR code with your phone, just like you would when linking your desktop computer. In that scenario, Molly basically pretends to be a desktop computer despite looking and behaving like the original Signal version.

Ah true. But think they still have everything linked to phone number as identity, instead of username. They need to change that still so phone number can be removed.
Once again, #Netanyahu ignores all Western appeals and warnings. Advancing into the place people were told was safe to flee to is the exact opposite of increasing efforts to reduce civilian harm. Where are they supposed to go now? #Rafah
Out of more than 1000 visitors of #37c3, at least 12% got sick. That's just what happens when the organiser defames those who call for hygiene measures “Covid extremists”. 🤡
@Profpatsch@pixelcode Oje. Ein Snowflake. Ich würde vorschlagen, du blockierst mich, denn ich bin da nicht maximal PC und könnte unabsichtlich deine Gefühle verletzen. 😔
#Quiz: I've printed my own banknotes, each of which has a number on one side and a face on the other. I proclaim the rule that every banknote valued 1984 💵 has Orwell's face on the back.
Question: Which banknote(s) of the following four do you have to flip in order to check whether the rule holds true? Select as few as possible.
(No other banknotes have been printed, these are the only ones.)
If you use an #adBlocker and have noticed that some websites don't work correctly, here's a suggestion that may help:
Disable the DuckDuckGo #TrackerRadar blocklist compiled by #Blokada, as it contains many false positives, i.e. domains wrongly classified as serving ads or trackers.
The reason I had been unable to determine the root cause for a long time was that Firefox only said “connection refused”, due to @tblock modifying the Hosts file.
@pixelcode ich benutze kein Blockada. Mit dem IPad benutze ich DNSforge und Firefox Klar und bei GrapheneOS Vanadium. Bei Linux Ublock oder so ähnlich. Ich bin praktisch werbefrei.
@MrGR Es geht nicht um die Blokada-App, sondern um eine Blockliste, die von Blokada erstellt wurde und in jedem (guten) Adblocker verfügbar ist, z.B. in TBlock.
German politician Christian Lüth of the right-wing extremist “Alternative for Germany” party said about migrants:
“We can still shoot them all afterwards. That's not an issue at all. Or gas them, or whatever you like.”
Even if you're not German, you should show your support for unconstitutionality proceedings against AfD. We must not allow fascism to rise again. Otherwise, it won't stop at the border of your country.

What do you do when coming across 1000+ character posts?

The #Houthi rebels, who receive arms deliveries from #Iran, have struck yet another merchant vessel in the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, #RedSea. This time, a German tanker was hit by an unknown missile.
We must not tolerate this Islamist terror against arbitrary civilian cargo ships!
