One day at school, the teacher asked the children what their parents thought was beautiful.
She asked Sally, and Sally replied, "My Mom thinks that flowers are beautiful."
"Why is that," she asked?
"Because she says they smell really nice."
The teacher then called on Tommy, and Tommy replied, "My Dad thinks antique cars are beautiful."
"Why is that," she asked?
"Because, he says they are so old and still preserved in their original form."
Next she called on Little Johnny, and Johnny replied, "My Dad thinks pregnant women are."
"Why is that," she asked?
"Because, when my sister got pregnant, my Dad said 'beautiful just fucking beautiful!'"
The third-grade teacher was teaching English and repeated for her class:
"Mary had a little lamb,
whose fleece was white as snow
And everywhere that Mary went,
the lamb was sure to go."
She explained this was an example of poetry, but could be changed to prose by changing the last line from "the lamb was sure to go" to "the lamb went with
her."
A few days later, she asked for an example of poetry or prose. Johnny raised his hand and said,
"Mary had a little pig --
An scrawny little runt.
He stuck his nose in Mary's Clothes
And smelled her little . . ."
He stopped, turned to the teacher, and asked, "Do you want poetry or prose?"
"Prose!" the teacher said weakly.
So Johnny said, " . . . Asshole."

If I didn't choose to keep this device alive and useful with postmarketOS, it would have most likely ended up in a drawer somewhere, and then eventually a landfill somewhere.

New release today: #rPGP version 0.14.0 ✨
(#OpenPGP implemented in pure #Rust, permissively licensed)
github.com/rpgp/rpgp/releases/…
This release brings rather complete support for the excellent new OpenPGP RFC 9580 (also known as "crypto refresh", or "v6")
RFC 9580 standardizes modern cryptographic mechanisms for OpenPGP: AEAD-based encryption, Argon2, and SHA2 fingerprints for the new OpenPGP v6 key format (v4 keys use SHA1).
Thanks @NGIZero for supporting this work!
Alright, I'm bored. Brainstorm.
It's 2045. We just retired in Canada. We have good assets.
Where do we retire to escape the heat? While still being close to a good airport?
We just decided against Montréal because gosh, it was hot at 21 C. Ireland and France seem to have easy enough visas. Did someone research this better than us?
Montreal summers are as bad as Ottawa.... FYI.
EU visa aren't as easy as you think.

Providing my students their best environment for my own stuff is one thing, but they also need to learn to work in whatever environment they'll be tested in, even when it's not what they'd want.

It's the newest joke in town for zionists when they're asked questions they don't like: "do you want a beeper?"

“Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.”

The billionares will get their country and shipping lanes. This isn't about religion. It's colonisation, Mars was a distraction. A base will be built.
New essay: "Along came passkeys. A cool idea that quickly turned evil."
Why I think it's time to start using Passkeys, finally.
@matt That’s a fair opinion. But every time I use them I have to:
1. Wait 15 seconds for an email
2. Have access to my email
3. Worry whether they get lost in spam
4. Add friction
5. Make that destination (email or text) a single point of failure for full access to everything you own (though with resets it’s not too far from it)

Reading about world-systems theory, wherein the capitalist world is divided into core and periphery regions. The core has the higher-skilled, capital-intensive industries and the periphery is essentially a producer of raw materials in service to the core. (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World-sy…)
It's reinforced by the work of folks like Walter Rodney (author of How Europe Underdeveloped Africa) and Frantz Fanon (author of The Wretched of the Earth).
It's also seems to be reproduced on the city/country scale.
To my last boost. Please boost this for wide spread. This is an opportunity for #braille dice sets to enter the realm of #mainstream and mass manufacturing. I haven't been able to read of full set of #dice as a #TTRPG player in 20 years since I went #blind. It would be beautiful for something like this to be added to life and make me feel like I'm right up there with everyone else. Thank you!
Just going to add the link directly here as well.
Hey everyone! 🎲✨
I’m super excited to share that they hit their goal for the TTRPGs for Accessible Gaming Charity Bundle! Because of your amazing support, DOTS RPG Project can now team up with Die Hard Dice to create awesome braille dice for the visually impaired and blind community.
This is such a big win for making tabletop gaming more inclusive, and I couldn’t be happier. I’m really looking forward to snagging a set of these dice myself! I'm not in anyway involved other than a supporter but you have no idea how long I've been waiting for this.
This is just my personal huge thanks to everyone who chipped in and helped spread the word. You all rock! 🌟🙌

"Mimochodom, Robert Fico začal účet za obžerstvo dvanástich rokov vlád Smeru a tri roky gamblerstva Igora Matoviča vyčísľovať aj v slovenských korunách, čo neznie dobre. Jeho volič si nevie predstaviť ani miliardu, nieto tridsať, nedá sa to vyložiť na stolík v keši, sú to iba dve čísla, ktoré znamenajú veľa a veľa veľa. Dúfajme, že vodca nezačal trénovať predstavivosť svojho voliča na niečo, čo nám dnes pripadá nepredstaviteľné."

I ordered something once, 2 weeks later it had been delayed 3 times. And cancelling the ~$800 order was hard. It works, but when it doesn't it's a nightmare.

Hey, y'all,
I still haven't been able to get a full time job, and my savings are depleted. I could use some help with rent and suchlike.
Of course, if you have need for someone with Linux experience, I'm your girl.
