Small #FediTip: if you encounter a message or thread that is in any way useful to you, bookmark it straight away.Since the fediverse doesn't have full text searches, it will be very difficult to find that particular thing again a few days later. Especially if you cannot remember who posted it or it has no hashtags.Periodically review your bookmarks to do something with them and you should be set.

@verb @mjg59 I definitely remember from my Commodore 64 and Amiga days the use of "cracker" by groups releasing software illegally. And generally it also implied they circumvented any copy protection that was used. So I wonder if that's a parallel use of the cracker label (this was all early 1980s-1990s).

Look, I am against war. I am also against imperialistic stuff the US has pulled in the past.But this stupid argument that NATO caused Russia to invade Ukraine is just ridiculous to a degree that it boggles me how smart people can peddle and digest this nonsense.So yeah, you might want to stop funding Ben and Jerry's.https://www.thedailybeast.com/ben-and-jerrys-founder-ben-cohen-funds-campaign-against-ukraine-military-support#Ukraine #RussianInvasion

@alex @reedmideke When I just saw that part in the article and the openness with which they were talking about "OG" and not going to tell the FBI, I could only think "you're fucked" and "why are you even talking about this in public?"

@simon Isn't that installation of the interpreter a bit similar to what pyenv has been doing all this time, or am I missing something?

So about that whole EFF thing on the topic of Kiwifarms and tier 1 blocking...I had some minor interactions with byuu/near in the past, so I will be biased on this but I am getting very, very tired of this whole American absolute free speech defense bullshit.

@daniel_collin True, but at least having a policy is something that can be fallen back on in dubious cases?

Most Western governments do not appear to think of themselves as being at war with Russia. Russia, however, is at war with the West. “That’s for sure—we are saying that openly,” the Russian representative to the United Nations recently declared.[..] The air-traffic controller sighed. “We’re back to the Cold War,” he said. “And I think it’s going to be like this for the rest of my life.”https://pulitzercenter.org/stories/russias-espionage-war-arctic#Russia #HybridWarfare #Espionage #Arctic #Kirkenes #Norway #Norge

News from my own city as a world port: ~80 container ships have altered or cancelled their routes following the Trump regime's announcements of tariffs against most of the rest of the world.This means that, aside from lacking imports to the US, there's also less space available to export.
