ICE agents come to the house of an immigrant activist, he tells them he will come out of the house to them if they have a judicial warrant, as people are told to do now.

They bring a dozen more agents, a Bearcat armored vehicle, battering ram and stun grenades, and break in.

Media Free Diaspora: Make Peace Not Big Yikes


Have Courage–Be Kind

I wrote this 2016 February 05. It still holds!

My position:
* It is better to create allies than to make enemies.
* It is better to educate than to argue.
* If someone is genuinely intractable, do not waste energy on them...just walk away.
* If someone is causing genuine harm, do your best to get out of their way and/or stop them.

I find these are mature skills worth developing. There will be times when I can be tired, stressed, or something is simply a hot button and these points are forgotten. Eventually I recognise that it is time to stop. I apologise if need be. I do my best to learn from the experience and move on. For the last one, it's okay to be scared. Seek help or at least support.

One important point that is missing from Nextcloud Talk in my opinion is end-to-end encryption for chat messages. This would be a big step forward!

A new rumor claims Valve is working on a console as powerful as the PS5 and Xbox Series X. But maybe don’t get your hopes up just yet.

🤦‍♂️ there's no insider, you could run this rumour any time a Valve contractor does a Mesa update.

GTK drops support for X11 and Broadway!

in reply to It's FOSS

That headline is clickbait and makes the situation sound a lot worse than it actually is. X11 support isn't going away instantly, and GTK 4 will continue to ship with it until the release of GTK 6, which is far into the future.

Nice, thanks for sharing!

After a few searches I came across this: library.gamehistory.org/reposi… — I'd love to see this box of maps.

It reminded me of all the elaborate notes and drawings me and my siblings would make of the worlds of the games we played, taking us from the screen to paper. I guess that rarely happens these days.
