Glad your experience is better, and only 3 out of 7 were a problem in varying degrees for you. The original seven list came from my helping a new client join the fediverse and all seven they felt were "table stakes" that any social media should have resolved. But as with everything YMMV.

@kopper horny worm: do yes worm

Trump has already put 26 percent tariffs on European steel and aluminum, and he is now adding a 25 percent tariff on European cars and car parts.

I believe, this will continue until Canada, the UK, and the EU introduces a musketeer oath (one for all), so when Trump hits one of us with tariffs, we all hit back with the exact same tariffs.

If Trump knew, that his 25 percent car tariffs would immediately result in the same tariffs on US car exports to Canada, UK, and EU, he would not even try.

@semitones #homelab community is a good direction for this. I’m keen on doing this on #FreeBSD myself.

@simon Oh yeah true, can't forget that sweet money! Can you maybe share the video or article with me? would love to read up on it!

@therockfiles Of course I'd love having a stack of real tube amps, but those are large and expensive, and I'd need a loadbox/attenuator to play them at reasonable volumes. This gets me 90% of the way there with gear I already have. I'm unlikely to ever play on stage with my sloppy playing :P

@hipsterelectron Mood.

Please boycott JK Rowling. I do not have the health to listen to defenders of Potter on why they won't boycott. Take that somewhere else please.

For those boycotting, here are alternative worlds from authors who are supportive of marginalized people:

* Young Wizards series by Diane Duane
* Emelan series by Tamora Pierce
* Akata Witch series by Nnedi Okorafor
* Animorphs series by Katherine Applegate
* Percy Jackson series by Rick Riordan
* Legendborn series by Tracy Deonn

Espanjan mukaan Israel rikkoi kansainvälistä oikeutta pysäyttäessään Gaza-avustuslaivueen aluksia

Yhdysvallat asettui Israelin tueksi ja kuvaili avustuslaivuetta merkityksettömäksi poliittiseksi tempuksi.

so glad NIST is investing so much in post-quantum cryptography. the US government is renowned for its innovation in novel and unproven cryptosystems with well-known downsides that are not fixed before attempting to standardize them, by force if necessary
