This is entirely Tauri's fault (well... my fault for trying to wrap a PWA in a native app - maybe there is a lesson here?)

Remind me to never again try to book flights through the KLM website without first making sure that all of the connecting flights are KLM. Apparently I can't book additional luggage to the trip, or even check in online, just because the first flight is Transavia...

Dressed for war, masked banditry & terrorizing Chicago's civilians:

Following the example of Putin's empire of fascism lawless Stephen Miller's & Trump's equally lawless ICE terror squads again unleash violence on peaceful Chicagoans.
"...
In a viral video posted Saturday by Joshua Reed Eakle, an executive director at Project Liberal Action, four law enforcement vehicles swarmed a car on a suburban Chicago street.
An agent pulled the driver from her car as she pleaded with officers that she was only 15 years old.
The arresting officer then threw her to the ground and appeared to put his knee on her neck as he restrained her hands behind her back.
Block Club Chicago reported the arrest took place in Hoffman Estates.

Good for NPR.

“From NPR Editor in Chief Thomas Evans:

NPR will never be party to limitations on the independence of the press and the objective, fact-based reporting of our journalists. We will not sign the Administration's restrictive policy that asks reporters to undermine their commitment of providing trustworthy, independent journalism to the American public.”

Personal Note: As of today, I am officially "Acting Executive Director" of Project Gutenberg.

Ah. Apparently, the magic trick is using "gnome-tweaks" to fix Emacs' font rendering, because Linux's font rendering is still driven by whatever library the application is compiled against. That's, you know, not the best, but okay. (The fonts are comparatively huge, too?)

Hell yeah. I love when AI exposes the subtle idiosyncrasies of American racism. We immediately know which dog breeds will be white humans, and which will be Black. Excited for the 404 write-up

If you've ever wondered what domains the US federal government has registered, there's a rather exhaustive list over in the dotgov-data repository on GitHub, which is maintained by CISA. You can see the raw CSV here. They don't include the registration date, but you can derive that from...
