Some said this day would never arrive, yet here we are. I'm proud to say that my static website generator, Markerator, has just had it's first release at 1.0.0.
It reads in Markdown files, CSS themes, and images, and outputs a pure HTML 5/CSS static website. I've added documentation, examples, and documented the CSS file format so that folks can add their own custom themes. It currently ships with a default, and 3 other themes.

A/I's mission has always been clear, and for more than twenty years it has inspired generations of hackers and activists in Italy and around the world: "Socializzare saperi senza fondare poteri." Sharing knowledge without establishing power.
That is what the US is attacking, and that is what is at stake today.
The premise of these sanctions, that whoever provides communications infrastructure answers for whatever anyone does with it, would criminalise and shut down most Big Tech platforms tomorrow if applied equally.
Instead it is aimed at grassroots services who refuse to surveil their users.
We condemn these sanctions, and we stand firmly with solidarity tech like A/I. Antifascism and anticapitalism are not terrorism.

That feels like quite enough lawyering for one week.

@SRAZKVT it is clearly designed by people who have worked very hard on building other people's software. its lack of fully recursive configurability encodes a hierarchical model of distro packaging power. i trust @mgorny with my life. i do not trust the KDE maintainer team who makes wayland a hard requirement for konsole by misusing the subtle distinctions between X and X? and then justifies it in a forum post (not a commit message) by the logic that "it's quite unlikely for someone to use konsole without KDE plasma".
AI companies so convinced they're building the torment nexus that they're wargaming scenarios where the public turns against them in violent revolution https://www.axios.com/2026/10/09/ai-companies-day-after-major-attack

@cwebber
Butlerian Jihad (Frank Herbert).
so remember that poll i did yesterday about mailing the haematologist? thank you to everyone who replied. just wait till you read the ultimate result! 🫠
i mailed her, said that i was wondering if she would still want to see me given that i already knew i couldn't take the standard treatments, etc., and that i didn't want to waste her time and was trying to check if the journey was worth it.
she replied to say that if i couldn't take the standard treatments, then i might not have the disease. the disease of which she'd never heard when my GP contacted her. the disease the diagnosis of which was in part confirmed BECAUSE i react to so many meds.
she then said that either way, if i can't take the meds, she can't help me and that she'd cancel the appointment. end of mail.
(i can't take the standard treatments either due to bad reactions or contraindications. for the sake of brevity, i didn't specify this, but maybe i should've. not like it would've made any difference: clearly all she does is hand out a standard complement of meds. which i can't take.)
i am crying and shaking and so upset and angry and i have no idea what to do. husband says it's just as well i mailed, because she sounds entirely dim and fucking useless. he's right, but equally, what tf now??
so, yeah. glad i mailed, i guess. not glad to be stuck here with no help and constantly, scarily worsening health.

@moonrabbit absolutely fucking useless, what a horrible doctor.
You know best what is or isn't possible right now, but I just want to say that if you needed a fundraiser to help you relocate to Wales I know a lot of people here would donate... 💚
