As she managed to perfectly describe Dementors, she clearly must be one!
A person who wrote a fusion of a cringy comming of age story, and a zero to hero story with an high school arch in a inconsitend magic system turned out to be a shitty person. Her HP universe is IMHO as shallow as she is. PPL grow out of it because its static and non evolving.
As you might be able to tell, I don't like HP. But that is a thing of personal preferences. I'm disgusted by J.K. Rowling and that is a thing about basic human decency.

Time to arrest the traitors first.
Our legitimate leaders need to find the strength of their convictions and perform their job: arresting the criminals openly committing treason.
they swore an oath to do this, and case law comes down real hard on helping traitors
@bweller I fear that salvation won't come from above. Both the law and your leaders, legitimate or not, have been failing you for decades now, which is why you find yourself where you are.
Your peers, and your ability to organize with them, will be your salvation: your neighbors, your co-workers, your friends and family. Those are the ones that will actually have your back.

Found this interesting-- presumably NTSC monochrome video from a Mac II video card? Anyone ever try this?

Here's the alt-text for the image:
The image is a bright, digitally-created graphic with a vibrant, swirling pattern of colors. The dominant colors are pinks, purples, and blues, blended together in a nebula-like effect. There's a slight gradient from a darker purple on the left to a brighter pink on the right. In bold white text overlayed on the image reads: βDear Thieves could you think of the files?β The font used is sans-serif, and the words are spaced evenly. The overall impression is a visually striking and playful composition.

Here's an alt-text description of the image:
The image shows a close-up photograph of a rectangular bowl filled with what appears to be a casserole-like dish. The casserole is golden brown in color, possibly made with cheese and pasta. A single fork rests on top of the dish, indicating it's ready to be eaten.
At the top left corner of the image is a sticker that reads "Try with Hot Dogs instead of Ground Beef". To the right and slightly below the sticker, there's another sticker that says "Help Yourself". Lastly, there is one more sticker that says βReal Cheese".

We are aware of roskomnadzor just having ramped up their blocking efforts in #russia against #deltachat 's default onboarding chatmail relay. Signal, Whatsapp are degraded/blocked for a longer time already.
1) Delta Chat has first class shadow-socks proxy support (try ss:// links you can find ... Delta has management-proxy UX)
2) many other chatmail relays work fine and inter-chatmail/email server traffic continues unimpeded
3) if you can help with analyzing please drop into our DMs.

I really hope that people realize that "AI browsers" are just an even faster way for all of your data to end up with some data broker being sold on the web somewhere.
I really hope people realize that "AI" is mostly a tool for doing that, and that's part of why it's getting pushed so hard.
I really hope...

Most of us will never know how that feels ever again. To be truly outside the reach of the constant surveillance state we now live in. I feel so bad for the people that will never experience real privacy, those who will never be able to truly "get away from it all". But we're already past that point for the majority of people, at least in the U.S., and increasingly in other countries.

'Scrapheap challenge' response to hotel blaze shows #IsleOfWight #fire service on brink of critical failure
The service was unable to initially send the right number of fire engines (three) due to the poor availability of appliances on the Island. Instead, it initially sent two, leaving just two fire engines available to cover the whole of the Island.The service was also unable to provide a second aerial ladder platform, again due to a lack of firefighters.
Island services were transferred to the mainland for cost savings. Unreliable ferry service to #IOW used in emergency to move mainland fire engines

Here's the alt-text for the image:
The image is a meme with a black and white portrait of a person looking directly at the viewer. There's text overlaid on the image, both at the top and bottom. At the top it says, "They say" in a simple font. At the bottom, it says, "I died in 1537." The background of the image appears to be a flat, neutral gray. The overall presentation creates a humorous and slightly unsettling effect due to the serious portrait paired with the stark text.
