@mmm_kay @PhoenixSerenity There are already Gazas in the US, maybe not post October 7th Gaza but Gazas non the less. The so called reservations are already open air concentration camps for those who refuse to conform, be colonized, and give up their land. Where the colonizer can freely and completely without legal consequence murder maim and rape anyone they so please. This violence will escalate, it will not abate, do not forget the natives, stand by them.

My sainted adopted Grandma was a childless cripple woman, small and withered in the eyes of the world. One summer a big feral hog started attacking her farm, tearing things up every night. Pigs are dangerous! But she was unflapped. She got her a quart of dry corn and had a man leave a trailer. Every day she'd put a little corn out, closer and closer to the rig until one day the hog walked right in to get it and she slammed the gate.

This story is about true strength. Fight any way you can!

A few years ago, I was involved in the development of custom select, back when it was called .

Now, it's just and it comes with a bunch of CSS to make it do whatever you want, like this circular demo!

Can't wait for broader support.

Another photo from me, but a moody one this time!

Taken at a local ruined church/graveyard one evening, with a stormy sky.
Originally taken in colour, but better in mono - especially with the subject!
f16, 1/2s to get the depth of field

We (leftists-types) all go through that phase
where be believe that religion is the root of all evil, and if everyone would just be atheists, all our problems will disappear.

The sooner you get out of that phase, the better. Yes, the system can use religion for nefarious ends. But it's not like a single driving force of oppression. And we certainly shouldn't shun theists who see the system for what it is.

This is a really fun PeerTube video by @harrybo@gamerstavern.online about rally driving with a 3-wheeled car, highly recommend you watch:

➡️ https://video.gamerstavern.online/w/su1VTRDyum6gpqSffq2VmG

I accidentally inspired the video by commenting on one of his more conventional four-wheeled rally videos. He crashed and one of the wheels came off, so I joked he should try driving with three wheels, and he made the video above 😆

If you don't know Harrybo, he mainly does driving game videos but the emphasis is on humour and self-mockery rather than toxic car culture. They're great fun, you can subscribe to his PeerTube at:

I would like to finally quit YouTube, which will be significant for me in that I'll be severing my last tie to corporate tech. Yay!

I have a YT channel, but that's not what keeps me on YT. It's about the awesome, bite-sized, high-quality video essays that I enjoy so much. I just can't read books ALL the time, damnit! It serves the same need for me as magazines, but...VIDEO!

I want to explore PeerTube more for sure. Anyone else have suggestions? How about Nebula?

While I haven't played much games in recent years, this is now one of those rare phases where I let myself get captured by a good game.

This time it's Open Transport Tycoon Deluxe #OpenTTD that got me interested.

I have played the similar game Simutrans quite intensely a decade ago but back then it suffered from occasional crashes.

“So, if invoking the Insurrection Act is akin to waving a magic wand that makes Trump omnipotent and lets him install a dictatorship in an instant, why hasn’t he done it yet? The people who control the government are certainly not the most patient or a particularly prudent bunch. As a matter of practical reality, the idea that the minute Trump invokes the Insurrection Act all resistance is futile, Trump has won, Game Over is nonsense. That’s just regime propaganda. Perhaps the Trumpists, underneath all the bluster, know this too? Could it be that some in the administration are concerned that once they actually invoke the Insurrection Act, they can no longer use it as a constant threat? And if that doesn’t get their enemies to surrender, what do they have left?”

The public backlash is so vast no one is buys "it's paid agitators" anymore.

Noem and Bovino are desperate that the people who have supported and trusted them and Trump do not look more closely at what ICE is really doing.

At the same time they continue to kill, to scare us into stopping.

I'm hopeful that this will fail.

This is a big crack. This "they are well meaning people who have been fooled" line. 3/3

ASIC and FPGA Hybrid Meetups

A new #Meetup group is being formed. Meetups will be held monthly in #Katowice, and occasionally in other European cities if a speaker and venue can be found. The plan is to make this into a hybrid meetup, so people from all over the world can participate, while the speaker benefits from live audience feedback.
