V Chersonské oblasti byly objeveny dětské mučírny.
Rusové do zadržených řezali nožem, pálili rožhaveným kovem.
Jednoho chlapce drželi celkem 90 dní. Několikrát ho vyvedli "na popravu" a stříleli nad hlavu.
Informoval 🇺🇦 komisař pro lidská práva.
Vězněné děti také musely poslouchat nepřetržité sténání mučených žen a mužů.
Napít děti dostávaly jen obden a jídlo téměř žádné.
Jednoho chlapce Rusové zadrželi jen kvůli tomu, že si vyfotil zničenou voj. techniku.

#FreeSoftwareAdvent for today: Hammerspoon. Another macOS tool that makes the platform usable.
Script the OS, add hotkeys, all from Lua, a not wholly unpleasant programming language. One thing that it desperately needs is good documentation, and if I had a few weeks of uninterrupted time and no responsibility, I'd write said documentation. Otherwise, you need to do a lot of googling to find blog posts and code samples because the API docs are a bit mystical.

I just wrote a song with lyrics and chords supplied by #ChatGPT!
Recorded it for you, enjoy!
The prompt:
"Create an emo song with lyrics and guitar chords that evoke sadness and loneliness. Make the chorus have different chords than the verses."
Verse 1:
G C
Lost and alone
Am D
In this cold world
G C
My heart is a stone
Am D
No one to hold
Chorus:
F C
Emptiness fills me
G D
Loneliness chokes me
F C
I am fading away
G D

OKAY, #fedimins! I got some good news.
There's an upcoming course with the Anti-Racist Classroom, for Community and Moderation. They had Admins and Moderators in mind for this course.
"Antiracism and Communicating Online
In this two part series, come together in community to discuss and problem solve the challenges of communicating and moderating online with an antiracist lens."
This classroom is aimed at white people. The courses are discussion based, so there's no sequential curriculum, You can sign up as long as you have a commitment to Anti-racism (that means awareness of your actions in this case, and willingness to keep growing)
The first cohort is on the 20th and 27th of December (the two parts, one on each)
You can view more info, and how to sign up here:
docs.google.com/document/d/1O9…
It's a paid course, and luckily there is a stipend if you can't afford it.
You can even donate some money to help other people attend the course.
I took my first anti-racist course with them (their 101 course) back in January this year.
If there's still interest, but these dates don't work for you, because it's short notice or anything else, they will be looking for more opportunities in the new year. So still let them know!

Copy from their email:
"
The second section we'll facilitate is another community requested course, Parenting as an Antiracist Practice.
This class will live as a space for dialogue, learning, and nurturing each other on raising the next generation with an antiracist lens and will run:
Tuesday, January 17th, 6-7 PM EST
Tuesday, January 24th, 6-7 PM EST
"
Additional info
You need to send the payment and stuff by Friday, January 13th for Parenting as an Antiracist Practice
(the info for how to do this is in the same document as the other first post)
" Finally, the third section we'll have is the first course again, Building Your Antiracist Journey, which will be on:
Sunday, January 15th, 2-3 PM EST
Sunday, January 22nd, 2-3 PM EST
Sunday, January 29th, 2-3 PM EST
Sunday February 5th, 2-3 PM EST "
This is their course I've referred to as Anti-racism 101.
Highly recommend it. I took this one even though I thought I was beyond 101, I still felt it was very valuable for me to both be part of helping other people on their journey, but also learning a few more things myself.
You need to sign up by: Wednesday, January 11th for Building Your Antiracist Journey
again, go back to the first post for the info on how to sign up! (it's the same for each)
