Similarly to Linux users, Tasmanian devils are solitary, nocturnal creatures for whom the term "distribution" can be a touchy subject.

Pet too many humans and you can get in trouble.


The Tor Project announced its annual State of the Onion event, done in two parts, the first on 12 November and the second on 10 December.

I've watched them for the last few years and they are great. Informative, well-prepared reports about impressive projects, all very much grounded in what is happening on and to the internet right now.

I love photos like this. There’s nothing going on, really, someone just saw her and said “Oh she's SO PRETTY. I have to take a picture.” From my collection, 1959.


Very worth reconsidering.
Nevertheless, we are coming to a point where the US needs to
a) start a federal government in absentia
b) have a Constitutional Convention

Puerto Rico should be a state - but not Alberta.

in reply to Muse

"A Constitutional Convention would not work-out the way most people would want."

I believe that happens every presidential election. Particularly when the president gets in with a minority public vote.



I'm a big fan of Fable the raven. This is just a short of her being particularly chatty.

The government shutdown is now the longest in U.S. history. sheril.substack.com/p/shutdown… #uspol

So why does the 21st disruption of federal funding since 1976 feel... normal?

in reply to Sheril Kirshenbaum

Because compromise has become a dirty word in both parties. I suspect at least 60% of the House would be willing to support a compromise on the budget but they fear the electoral consequences of working with "the enemy". Congress is broken, and I believe it will require completely new leadership to fix it.

Friendica & threads.net


@Friendica Support @Fedi.Tips

I noticed a couple of issues with the friendica and threads.net integration today.


  1. The firefox extention Facebook container gets in the way (reported issue)
  2. The user profile link fails (assuming the above plugin is disabled)


I found the firefox extention Firefox Multi-Account Containers can be used instead ... just that you need to train it to keep meta sites in a seperate container.

I also found that whilst the profile URL fails on friendica, the link under the Unfollow button does work.

(browser containers can be used to keep settings local to a container - eg avoid any cookies set by facebook pollute browsing other sites. Also useful to open different accounts with the same institition)
