Powerful #Pakistan Climate Minister @sherryrehman was a breath of fresh air to listen to at #COP27 - Straight honest talking too often absent in Europe -"What goes on in Pakistan won't stay in Pakistan" - If no 'Loss + Damage' Facility, 'Bretton Woods system has to be rewired'..

More on the S-300 missile that landed inside Polish territory near the Ukrainian border.
#Poland Russian made S-300 fired by the Ukrainian military. Was it intentional, in order to get NATO protected Poland in the war overtly?! Or was it just bad shooting by the Ukrainians or were their guidance systems jammed?
New Libreboot release coming soon. https://libreboot.org/news/merge.html

Polish mass media and officials commit deliberate provocation to escalate situation with their statement on alleged impact of 'Russian' rockets at Przewodów
◽️ Russian firepower has launched no strikes at the area between Ukrainian–Polish border.
◽️ The wreckage published by Polish mass media from the scene in Przewodów have no relation to Russian firepower.
Man, MSM in the west is a farce. Why do people think that their political coverage is accurate - It aint folks! This time more propaganda on the Iranian "Demonstrations".

Ok so you blocked me so I can't respond. I knew you were polish @Lahoma but I never insulted you, just the government of Poland which is warmongering.
If Ukraine had a good air defence system, Russia wouldn't have air superority, nor would they be firing missiles and destroying Ukraine's power grid. Nor would Ukraine be asking for air defense systems, which they'll get a few but not enough to do much if anything before destroyed.
How he was caught:
Gary Warner, director of research in computer forensics at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, noted in his blog from 2014 that Tank told co-conspirators in a JabberZeus chat on July 22, 2009 that his daughter, Miloslava, had been born and gave her birth weight.
"A search of Ukrainian birth records only showed one girl named Miloslava with that birth weight born on that day,” Warner wrote. This was enough to positively identify Tank as Penchukov, Warner said.
The Ukrainian had fled to Switzerland.

These warmongers have no shame. They lied about Iraq, just as they're lying about #Ukraine now and previously. If one looks in our print media archives, it was only a few years back that some high profile media was writing about the Fascist and neo-Nazi propagation in western Ukraine. Now the same are saying there aren't any Nazi's despite copious evidence to the contrary.

Qoto != Goto
Yet, when first I glanced at Qoto, I saw Goto, that infamous #Fortran statement responsible for mountains of spaghetti code. I then saw what it really stood for and immediately signed up.
Qoto, to me, means #reading to learn or teach ourselves. How else really? Watching or hearing do not quite measure up to reading, especially physical books that you hold. In bed, paperbacks are preferred; hardcovers can be dangerous if you’re drowsy.😩
The best way I found to see if I’ve learned something from reading is to write down a synopsis. Not so easy. How about writing something original? I have great admiration for all writers of: #novels, #short stories, #history, cook books, text books, technical specifications, how-to books, etc. etc. I’d go out on a limb and say, the art of writing is significantly more difficult than either creating a painting or composing a piece of music. Please note that I said art, not science.
In this internet age, much of our reading is in snippets. TL;DR
So, here’s a poll for the longest time you’ve spent reading in one sitting recently. (excepting this toot)
OK, one more step done. Everyone on Masto.host is now running v4.0.
About half running v4.0.2 and half v4.0.1.
For the ones on v4.0.2 the upgrade is done (unless v4.0.3 is released 😂 ).
The others on v4.0.1 I will upgrade them in the next hours to v4.0.2. A small restart is required that will cause about 15 seconds of downtime.
If you run into any issues, please let me know. Thanks.
