Guy Fawkes, (born 1570, York, England—died January 31, 1606, London), British soldier and best-known participant in the Gunpowder Plot. Its object was to blow up the palace at Westminster during the state opening of Parliament, while James I and his chief ministers met within, in reprisal for increasing oppression of Roman Catholics in England.
Fawkes was a member of a prominent Yorkshire family and a convert to Roman Catholicism. His adventurous spirit, as well as his religious zeal, led him to leave Protestant England (1593) and enlist in the Spanish army in the Netherlands. There he won a reputation for great courage and cool determination. Meanwhile, the instigator of the plot, Robert Catesby, and his small band of Catholics agreed that they needed the help of a military man who would not be as readily recognizable as they were. They dispatched a man to the Netherlands in April 1604 to enlist Fawkes, who, without knowledge of the precise details of the plot, returned to England and joined them.
The plotters rented a cellar extending under the palace, and Fawkes planted 36 (some sources say fewer) barrels of gunpowder there and camouflaged them with coals and fagots. But the plot was discovered, and Fawkes was arrested (the night of November 4–5, 1605). Only after being tortured on the rack did he reveal the names of his accomplices. Tried and found guilty before a special commission (January 27, 1606), Fawkes was to be executed opposite the Parliament building, but he fell or jumped from the gallows ladder and died as a result of having broken his neck. Nevertheless, he was quartered.
The British celebration of Guy Fawkes Day (November 5) includes fireworks, masked children begging “a penny for the guy,” and the burning of little effigies of the conspirator.
Sometimes I feel dumb when I'm trying to understand a Math proof or a new study and dont understand what they are saying...
Then I realize there are people out there who think Climate Change isnt human caused or a serious problem, grown ass adults who literally arent even as smart as a middle schooler.
Then I feel better about myself but then I stress over how many stupid people there are.
Almost done setting up my new system. I decided to design a whole new theme based on Rick & Morty / STEM, seems appropriate to share it on #QOTO.
This rice is brought to you by i3-gaps configured entirely from scratch
All the fies and details needed to replicate the theme on your on local system can be found here at the QOTO GitLab server:
Nice to meet you! #QOTO is so great.
I like using "Federated timeline" with hidden domains in "QOTO Default Theme" or "Material Theme (dark)" very much (like a image. In addition, Twitter button is https://addons.mozilla.org/ja/firefox/addon/birdsite/ ).
Furthermore, I am interested in "NextCloud" and "Discourse" of https://qoto.org/about/more .
I don't know the details yet, But Many Thanks #QOTO !
