The only thing worse than websites that auto-play videos are websites that auto-pause the video the second you switch tabs.

I wanted background noise, not separation anxiety 🙄

Our free stickers went like hot cakes yesterday at #FOSDEM. The new "My friends are not for sale" ones are all gone, they were an experimental last-minute print of a new design (which is coming soon as a t-shirt, by the way!). The less stuff for us to carry back home, the better. I wish people would grab the leaflets too!

Zipbomb JSON.

Someone who is not me should formulate a maximally-malicious JSON file. I made one with a nesting depth of ~182 million, but "jq" gives up early, at only around depth 3,000. So one trick would be to find the right balance of nesting and array length that stays under typical parsers' limits as long as possible, while requiring as much RAM as possible to get there.

The image below is of Rep Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (D, WA3) US Congresswoman from SW Washington. In between the murder of Renee Good on 7 January and the murder of Alex Pretti on 24 January, Gluesenkamp was one of 7 democrats who voted to fund ICE. The bill would not have passed without them.

She and her husband own Dean's Car Care on NE Lombard in Portland.

Prosecutions and impeachment.

White friends, your voices are so powerful that they started in the two most white places in the country (Minnesota and Oregon). Because they know if they can break you there, they can break you anywhere.

Schumer is selling out the American people once again. Giving ICE any money at all is wrong. Even evil.

No more funding for the DHS. Abolish ICE and prosecute all the thugs involved in it. Remove all fascists from all government positions and prosecute all who participated in criminal activity. Help all victims of ICE, and compensate everyone they hurt.

We need leadership that doesn't coddle pedophiles and fascists. Schumer needs to go.

I really cannot stress this enough. When I visited France, I visited a building where I read an entry in a log book where a Nazi recorded my great-grandmother's death in the camps. The name of this building was the "Musée de la Résistance et de la *Déportation*". It was not the "museum of the death camps" because they don't _call_ them death camps. While it's happening, they call it "deportations". The name "death camps" shows up once the occupying army is rolling their tanks into your capital.

Ahhhh I see. Tron Ares tried to Avatar it. They said what if we made a movie so visually
satisfying that no one will care about the plot or characters.

So far the best thing about this movie by far is the score which is done by NIN.

I want to rewatch All Light, Everywhere, a documentary about the surveillance state, but I can’t bring myself to do it. It’s so relevant to the times, but it’s a difficult watch because it illuminates (heh) our situation so well.

Anyway, watch it if you’re looking for something to watch tonight. I think it’s on Tubi. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All%5FLight,%5FEverywhere

Chris Rufo accuses Scandinavian-Americans of being left-wing radicals. I think he intended it as an insult, but I'm taking it as a compliment.

Are any of my fedi friends a #lawyer or have one they recommend to help me build an updated professional consulting agreement? It doesn't need to be anything crazy, just enough to protect me from bad actors/non-payment.

I made a sweater using Elizabeth Zimmerman's percentage system. It is more of a guide than a pattern, freeing you to make all sorts of adaptations.

I made this sweater oversized and with a raglan neck, for lounging and doing outside chores. I can't wait to make another one that is fitted and meant to be worn out and about!

Have you ever used Elizabeth's percentage system?

I see that misguided narrative in the gutless business leaders who talk about “de-escalation” and “finding real solutions” — as if the problem is just that a few ICE murdered two people, not that all the ICE agents are an authoritarian secret police in the making.

I see that misguided narrative in the elected officials who decry ICE, but then talk about “better training” and “more oversight” — as if the secret police will become humane if they just get a few new rules to ignore and have to sit through a Powerpoint about them.

I see some posts arguing that everything in Minneapolis is just more of the same that people of color have been living with forever, and white people are just waking up to it. I have never once heard that sentiment, however, from a BIPOC person who’s been living •in Minneapolis• for the last two months.

There is a crucial point there: this •is• precedented. It’s all precedented. But it’s not just more of the same.
