und das hat exakt was mit der tat zutun? tagesschau is echt soon schmierentheater. das ist das was man früher "bild-niveau" genannt hätte, nur das man heute der bild damit wahrscheinlich unrecht tut. vielleicht also in zukunft besser "tagesschau-niveau" sagen.

eSIM is going to be an absolute disaster for security.

It's kind of sad/depressing that it's totally normal now to see girls and young women online casually advertising their prostitution and pornography. This would never really happen even just a decade ago, but now you browse social media and we just sort of shrug it off that it's completely okay for so many girls and women to have some "sex worker" side-hussle or main-hussle going on.

The American government condemns "air strikes on... critical infrastructure that have left thousands of civilians without power and clean water."

The 500,000 Iraqi children killed by the American destruction of critical Iraqi infrastructure that left millions of Iraqi civilians without power and clean water could not be reached for comment

you know, the greens in germany always talked about how fuel should be >2€/L.

ich lese hier von meinen deutschsprachigen kontakten gelegentlich was zum thema schule. oft ist es etwas in richtung "öffentliche schule muss xyz besser machen". das wird nie passieren, öffentliche schulen dienen der indoktrination und dem vorbereiten auf ein braves drohnenleben.
dieses schulsystem verdient genauso wenig den status einer heiligen kuh wie der öffentlich-rechtliche rundfunk. das gehört beides weg. beides dient dazu die bevölkerung zu formen und zu "braven bürgern" zu machen. nur das die schule zwang wie gefängnis ist.

explorations: I found the most recent ants9front iso available, at https://ftp.cc.uoc.gr/mirrors/9ants/ (9ants5.64.iso) and decided to give it a test-drive. Installation was a breeze and having access to venti/fossil was a welcome sight during the installation. I also found a discussion started by mycroftiv himself, https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/Ta5071137bc09d294-M34f4c8d6b760d986a6fe1a53 , which gives a subjective but valuable history of the reasons for 9front and the things that changed since that fork. I really like reading mycroftiv’s writings, there’s a good person in there who just wants to have fun with his computerator.

The install went great, but things like sysupdate are still using mercurial, and using the deprecated mercurial repositories at https://code.9front.org/hg/plan9front – and if these were both git repos I’d be perfectly cozy just changing the scripts to use a different origin, it’s moving from hg to git which is a bigger step I think. gridstart and the rest of the gridchat stuff doesn’t work out of the box anymore with 9gridchan.org having fallen to the scalpers after mycroftiv’s frustration with “chan culture”. So it updates, but the last time the hg repo had been updated was more than a year ago. Nonetheless, grio and hub work a charm; for reasons beyond me at the moment the rio-themes.patch doesn’t seem to want to work anymore, as it looks for files that seemingly don’t exist? So I’m just riding the soothing teals and black-on-white at the moment. It really is a shame that 9front didn’t run with the 9ants stuff after mycroftiv; he basically giftwrapped for them a means to bring if not agreement, options to the non-owned plan9 forks. But that last bit is just my opinion so far.

I’m not quite sure where to start on transitioning the entire filesystem from hg-sourced to git-sourced, but if I can do that then I have 9front 64-bit with ANTS and the ability to update to the most recent changes, barring any unforeseen branch conflicts.

But that’s for later. Need a little break.
