Trump & his buddies on the RW media are talking about Portland like it's scene from The Last Of Us. The reality is, this is what these troops are being called into stop.

"Za uplynulý rok #Bratislava zaznamenala výrazný nárast agresivity, obťažovania, aj drobných krádeží. Podľa primátora Matúša Valla za to môže aj novela Trestného zákona, ktorá znížila závažnosť krádeží do 700 eur na priestupok."

Kriminalita v Bratislave prudko rastie. Samospráva žiada zmeny v legislatíve a viac štátnych policajtov

Minister vnútra Matúš Šutaj Eštok odmieta spájanie kriminality v Bratislave s trestnou novelou.

I disagree with a lot of people here, and that's fine. We can disagree on what tax rates should be. We can disagree on the best mix of public and private ownership. We can disagree on the amount of government involvement in markets. We can disagree on what privacy rights need to be protected by governments versus which need to treat the government as the adversary. We can disagree on which OS is best. We can disagree on the best way to build a Free Software ecosystem (we can even disagree on whether that's a desirable goal).

But we can't disagree on which people are people. If your perspective is that some people are not people, there is no way that we can still have a meaningful conversation. That's not a 'there are two sides' kind of debate. That's a 'no, this isn't a debate and we can't build a functioning society if you disagree' kind of debate.

I replaced my wifi card in my laptop, but perhaps one of the antenna cables was not secured as my signal goes to shit I think and sometimes it just doesn't even see 5ghz.

But if the antenna cables are secured/connected properly, is there a chance that it's expected that I literally replace the antenna cables too? that seems a bit much... I'd have expected them to be compatible because it's the same type of radio

Is it time for a truly ethical computing hardware company? One whose values would be

- open hardware as much as possible.
- repairable, upgradable, standardised.
- open software as much as possible.
- which exclude some hardware choices.
- full open source operating system support, and the default (no forked distro)
- code of conduct including for the choice of project sponsorships.

And many other.

1) when I put 0xabad1dea as my actual name in Lego's website, they rejected it as invalid (presumably because of the digits).

2) When I put 0xabad1dea as my public nickname, they rejected it because it's a "real" name.

which is it?!

One of the recent AI generated bug reports for #curl quite impressively identifies mismatches between a function header's comment mentioning that an argument is optional, but the code uses it unconditionally.

This taking comments into account certainly allows for some extra magic the classic code analyzers can't do.

The third morning marks the end of this first edition of Django On The Med 🏖️

It’s amazing how much we achieved in such a short time, with a small group of focused developers. 💪

The goal of the sprints has been fully reached. But the experience is not over yet, this afternoon’s rest and tonight’s dinner are part of the social side too. 🌅

I paid a fuckton of money for my @frameworkcomputer laptop parts. I paid extra for the parts I could've saved money on elsewhere because I wanted to support the company and what they stand for. I even ported Debian to the RISC-V Motherboard for the product that made Framework Framework: The Framework 13.

Now Framework decided to sponsor Omarchy and Hyprland, the leaderships of which are not just "politically of a different opinion", they are actively toxic, hostile and highly discriminatory, to phrase it euphemistically.

Nirav Patel responded to this in the community forum, essentially doubling down on the decision to take a "big tent approach".

I want to reiterate: __This isn't about "political differences", because the political difference are actively harmful to democracy itself, and the physical safety of marginalised communities.

Someone I supported in good faith with both code and money turned around and gave this money to multiple people who'd rather see me dead for existing.

Needless to say, I feel quite betrayed and I'm really torn on wether or not I should even continue and proceed with the port for the second RISC-V mainboard, because I don't want to end up supporting the hate towards me, my wife or other people in the same situation as me.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels betrayed by this decision.

Framework supporting far-right racists?

Hi, I am not exactly sure how best to frame this, but recent events have got me wondering where exactly Framework, as a company, stands with regards to human rights and equality.

Remember people no longer buying Swasticars in numbers had an impact. While the company is still here, a more fragile business like Framework probably would see the effect harder if people stop buying.

FAFO.

I can't wait to discover that Apple stance on not giving access to data (no backdoor) is actually a big lie and that they have been doing it all along.

Note: I don't even think Google, Microsoft, Facebook aren't already doing it.

If you're thinking of buying a @frameworkcomputer check this thread from their forum: community.frame.work/t/framewo…. Make sure to check their twitter stream too.

Personally the chances of me buying anything from them in the future is 0%.

spvm to buy a dystopian american mass surveillance product

some notes from the thread:

• American software collecting the movement history of all people in Montreal. Millions of hours of video will be sent to the US, and the movement history of all citizens will be potentially sold to the highest bidder.

• Software with very advanced capabilities accessible without a warrant by the police, such as chronological search (give me all the movements of this person over a year), facial recognition, alerts on individuals, and all the previously mentioned functionalities, etc.

• Complete loss of privacy for all people in Montreal, immediately. Privacy is dead the moment this system is connected and used by the SPVM.

• No strict judicial control, and data is not within our control. Valuable data going directly to the US and accessible without a warrant by the police.

• Police can access movement history without a warrant or validated by a judge ( think jealous police officer ex here )."
