Worst Home Security Myths: Debunking These Worn-Out Assumptions
These ideas about protecting your home are outdated, incorrect and sometimes outright dangerous. Here's why.Tyler Lacoma (CNET)
Studie: Aufnahme von Geflüchteten läuft immer besser – und keiner kriegt es mit? - Volksverpetzer
“Wir sind überfordert mit dem Ausländerhass, nicht mit den Flüchtlingen selbst”, sagte ein CSU-Landrat über die Geflüchteten-Unterbringung.Sophie Scheingraber (Volksverpetzer)
«Schutzsuchende Männer, die bereits acht Jahre in Deutschland leben, arbeiten derzeit zu 86 % – im Vergleich zu 80 % bei Deutschen. Die Gründungsquote von Menschen mit Migrationshintergrund ist doppelt so hoch wie die von Einheimischen. […]
[…] warum du von diesen Nachrichten wahrscheinlich noch gar nichts mitbekommen hast? Dass anerkannte Asylsuchende weniger oft tatverdächtig werden als der Durchschnitt, ist eine Tatsache […]»

How would you feel about a less outdated Planet GNOME? @felipeborges deserves my utter gratitude for finally moving that giant boulder. Let's make it happen!
feborg.es/rethinking-planet-gn…
Some GNOME websites are getting modernized and simplified, but Planet GNOME has fallen behind. Not anymore. I started a prototype for a Python script to publish Planet GNOME with GitLab Pages/CI.As Planet GNOME Editor, I am often asked to look for blog and syndication issues I couldn’t really address due to limited server-side access. With this, debugging indexing issues should be easier as it is just about looking at the CI job output.
Also, the Planet website is perceived as messy and outdated. So this work allowed Jakub Steiner to quickly jump in and restyle the page from a clean state.
Try it live at felipeborges.pages.gitlab.gnom… and let me know what you think. Keep in mind this is a proof of concept. Tips, feedback, and contributions are welcome in the project repo.
This still doesn’t produce the global Planet rss feed, just the webpage, but that’s in my TODO list too.
P.S.: I know feed readers/parsers can over-request rss/atom feeds. So I plan to cache data and use metadata to avoid redundant downloads before this is even considered as a replacement for the current Planet implementation. No worries. 😉
