    Whoa! I've never seen someone running Parabola before! Could you tell me what WiFi card you have?

    As for ricing, I'd recommend looking at colour schemes. I used to use Dracula, which has pre-built configs for GTK, Qt, i3/Sway, Xresources, and most terminals.

    I resent the idea that I'm sitting at the nazi bar. A more accurate metaphor would be that I am in a nazi town that I cannot yet leave, and that every other town for miles is in a similar situation.

    I am well aware of manufactured consent. This is happening, but not in the way you think. The idea of a genocide against Russian-Ukrainians is a lie being told by Putin and his government in order to manufacture consent for the invasion and annexation of Ukraine.

    Putin's government is what I would consider fascist. It is widely known to be authoritarian, anti-communist, homophobic, and nationalist.

    Looking briefly at Ukrainian political history, it seems that Yanukovych (the president from 2010–2014) was also a lot closer to being a nazi than Poroshenko or Zelenskyy, based on his supression of the media, cronyism, corruption, concentration of power, corporate raiding, and supression of the masses.

    Why do you say that Poroshenko's government was a "nazi proxy gov(ernment)"?

    I am a committee member in an infosec-focused student society, and I am going to be doing a talk next Wednesday. This is to be called "Brave GNU World" and (as the name suggests) it's about FOSS and the free software movement.

    We've had some fairly dry talks and some quite fantastic ones over the years, and I want this to be the latter (my previous attempts have been successful), so I plan to focus on some of the more entertaining details; but I will get the whole picture across in any case.

    So, does anyone have any suggestions or ideas?

     

    I was browsing Gemini (the protocol, not the AI) when I came across this gemlog:

    I usually disable JavaScript, but this post advises against it. I am also worried by the fact that most users of Fingerprint.com, Am I Unique?, and Cover Your Tracks will likely be using private browsers, so the real-world results would be quite different.

    What do you think?

     

    Yesterday, I decided to buy some beer that I hadn't tried before. One of the two packs I bought was Sweetheart Stout, made by Tennents.

    It's only 2%, but I had enjoyed Mackeson before so I figured this would be a similar experience. I was wrong.

    As the name suggests, the beer is intolerably sweet and — unlike some bad lager I bought a few years back — I can't just chug it and I don't want to give it away or dispose of it. Instead, I was thinking I might be able to transform it into something better.

    A glühbier might be a good fit for the drink, but I have never made one of these before. It might also work well in a gravy for something gamey, or a sauce of my own invention; but that's just a stab in the dark.

    Does anyone have any advice?
